In the meantime, popular cryptocurrency trader and analyst Ali Martinez tweeted on Wednesday that he has spotted the second largest meme coin SHIB forming a bull flag on the daily trading chart.

He predicts that SHIB is aiming to make a major bullish breakout to the $0.000072323 level and is placing a few buy orders the around $0.000018343 price mark.

Over the last 24 hours, SHIB has already attempted to make a surge of more than 9%, reaching $0.00002314. However, a decline that followed took it back to $0.000002182 – that’s 5.68% down.

1.6 billion SHIB scorched in past month, here’s nuance

According to a recent tweet published by the Shibburn explorer, in April, the Shiba Inu community did an impressive job of reducing the total circulating SHIB supply as it burned a whopping 1,695,717,536 SHIB.

That achievement was made thanks to 204 transactions which locked all those meme coins in unspendable blockchain wallets. However, Shibburn clarified that all these burns were not quite usual ones. All of these tokens were lost forever due to investors sending them to the Contract Address by mistake.

These people have lost their investment, Shibburn emphasized in the tweet, urging the cryptocurrency community to be watchful and double-check the destination wallets before making any transactions.
