The timing of the surge in the SHIB burn rate coincides with growing speculation surrounding Shiba Inu’s price trajectory.

With SHIB’s price cooling off in recent weeks, investors are closely monitoring the market for signs of a potential breakout or significant price movement.

The broader cryptocurrency market saw renewed bullish momentum over the weekend, with Bitcoin and other major cryptocurrencies recovering to reclaim key resistance levels. SHIB was not left out, rallying for three days in a row beginning April 6 before succumbing to profit-taking.

At the time of writing, SHIB was down 1.83% in the last 24 hours to $0.00002827. On the upside, Shiba Inu’s next resistance lies between $0.000031 and $0.000036, where 20.96 trillion SHIB were bought by 137,600 addresses at an average price of $0.000033.

On the other hand, if the price of SHIB falls further, the next support level is between $0.000025 and $0.00027, where 33.39 trillion SHIB were bought by 46,930 addresses at an average price of $0.000026.
