Shiba Inu (SHIB), a decentralized cryptocurrency, is making waves in the market with a bullish trend. Currently ranked among the top 20 cryptocurrencies by market capitalization, SHIB’s price movements reveal an interesting technical formation on its daily chart.

Recent data from market tracker Shibburn indicates that an anonymous wallet executed a significant transaction, transferring 1 billion SHIB tokens from a unique address to the official burn address. Following this move, the Shiba Inu burn rate skyrocketed by an impressive 8,470%.

A report from CoinCodex projects that by January 2025, the total value of all burned SHIB tokens could surpass $4.5 billion. The recent burn transaction was valued at approximately $13,050, based on SHIB’s market price of $0.00001305 at the time of the transaction.

Token burning is a common strategy in the cryptocurrency market aimed at creating a deflationary effect. By burning tokens, the total supply in circulation is significantly reduced, thereby enhancing their value and scarcity. These burned tokens are transferred to a ‘dead wallet’ with an unknown private key, ensuring that once they are sent there, they are lost forever.

New Delhi: The price of domestic LPG cooking gas cylinders has been increased by Rs 29 across India. This is the second price hike in the last three months.

The increase comes as global energy prices continue to rise due to the ongoing conflict in the Middle East.

After the revision, a domestic LPG cylinder now costs Rs 942 in Delhi, Rs 941.40 in Mumbai, Rs 968 in Kolkata, and Rs 957.50 in Chennai. In Bengaluru, the new price is Rs 944.50 per cylinder.

The government said the cost of supplying LPG has increased significantly. However, subsidies under the Pradhan Mantri Ujjwala Yojana continue to help over 10 crore beneficiaries.

Petrol, diesel, and CNG prices have also increased in recent weeks as global fuel markets remain volatile.
