Recently, SHIB has once again hit the trending searches—over 1 million tokens were permanently burned within just a few hours, making it seem quite grand. But a closer look at the data reveals something interesting: the burn rate has decreased by 32.29% year-over-year.

It's like someone is putting on a "feast" right in front of you—looks impressive in terms of volume, but if you ask about sustainability, the answer might be disappointing.

For those trading SHIB, token burns have always been an important narrative supporting the price. Simply put, it's about boosting price expectations by reducing circulating supply. But the burn rate is turning around—what does that indicate? Community engagement is cooling down, or in other words, the market's genuine demand for this mechanism is weakening.

Looking at a single burn of 1 million tokens, it more resembles a "performance show." The real indicator is the long-term trend of the burn rate. If this trend continues to decline, for a token that relies on deflationary expectations, it’s no longer just a signal—it could truly be a warning.

The year-end sprint atmosphere is good, but don’t be fooled by surface numbers. It’s important to see whether the community’s burning momentum can rebound—that’s the key to SHIB’s future performance.

ngl, the 32% burn rate drop is giving classic pump-without-the-follow-through energy... learned this the hard way with like five different tokens lol. technically speaking, one million tokens destroyed means absolutely nothing when velocity's tanking that hard—it's just theater at that point, saved y'all some bag holding right there.

A million tokens sound impressive, but I don't believe this anymore. The burning is getting less and less, are you still putting on a show here? Using the same tricks again? Is this really different this time? Haha The community enthusiasm has cooled down by half; the data will tell the truth. Let's wait and see if the burn rate can turn things around, or it'll be game over. It looks high-end and fancy, but it's just a numbers game. I think this might have really hit the ceiling this time. Another "look very impressive" move, so annoying. A 32% decline is not a small issue, brothers. No matter how good the surface article is, it's useless; what's key is having staying power.

A surface value of 1 million is impressive, but a 32% decline is the real story—that's a paper tiger.

It looks lively on the surface but falls apart internally, tired of this routine Another 32% drop and still bragging about destroying 1 million, wake up SHIB's recent move feels a bit fake, the burning hype has really cooled down Data doesn't lie, community enthusiasm is indeed fading End-of-year rush can't withstand the downward trend, what else can we expect? Only consider a rebound if you're optimistic; right now, you're just a bagholder Let the show be a show; I'll just observe and see how it goes

It's the same old burning narrative again. Honestly, I'm tired of it. Burning quickly doesn't mean there's a future; a 32% decline is the real truth.

Seeing the burn rate drop by 32%, this number is more heartbreaking than the actual amount burned.

actually, that -32.29% YoY burn rate deceleration is the real tell here. one-time 1M token destruction means absolutely nothing without looking at the 90-day rolling average and correlation with trading volume metrics.

1 million tokens sound impressive, but a 32% drop is the real story. Here we go again, the surface is lively but the deep water is cold. The burn rate is reversing; isn't this just the community voting? Don't just look at the destruction numbers, look at the trend to survive. A grand feast, but the half-cooked dish has gone cold. Year-end sprint? I think it's following a script.
