900M SHIB Burn Sparks Optimism Over $0.00003 Price Target Ahead
One of the most popular dog-themed meme coins, Shiba Inu, has once again made headlines with a colossal surge in its burn rate. The latest update from the tracker Shibburn revealed that over 900 million SHIB were burnt over the past month, June. This glimmered immense hope for the meme coin’s future price movements as supply takes a vital hit.
So, let’s delve deeper into Shina Inu’s market statistics to understand why market sentiments have taken an optimistic turn.
Massive Token Burn Ignites Market Optimism
According to the insights offered by Shibburn, the token burn mechanism incinerated 918.07 million SHIB over the past month via 237 transactions. This gave rise to a 148.69% surge in Shiba Inu’s monthly burn rate.
Meanwhile, today’s data revealed that the community witnessed the incineration of a staggering 301.68 million coins. This gave rise to a colossal 1392.60% upswing in the daily burn rate.
The total number of coins burned from the initial supply now evaluates to 410.727 trillion SHIB. As mentioned above, Shiba Inu’s supply further takes a massive blow, in turn staging as a bullish factor for the token.
Notably, as the supply diminishes, SHIB’s price has noted significant gains today, July 1, mirroring the burn’s impact.

SHIB Price Soars
At press time, SHIB’s price noted an uptick of 3.67% to trade at $0.00001735. Its 24-hour bottoms and peaks were $0.00001669 and $0.00001756, respectively.
Also, it’s worth noting that the price upswing coincides with the broader crypto market recovery. Meanwhile, the abovementioned burn rate upswing adds to it.
Coinglass data shows a market uptrend for the Shiba Inu coin today, as its Futures OI and derivatives volume upsurged. SHIB OI was up 2.85% to $35.71 million, whereas the volume rocketed 61.98% to $72.13 million.
However, Shiba Inu’s RSI rested at 34, hinting at some downside pressure on the asset. This could result in volatility in SHIB’s price movement in the short run.
However, the broader market sentiments remain optimistic, primarily attributable to the continuous massive SHIB burning. Also, Santiment’s data showcasing SHIB’s undervalued position in the market potentially paves the way for a $0.00003 price target, CoinGape Media reported. The colossal spike in the burn rate further bolsters Shiba Inu’s potential bullish future.

Asset manager VanEck has registered for a proposed BNB exchange-traded fund (ETF), the latest among the list of its new crypto ETF filings. As a result, the trading volume for BNB Coin has shot up by 42% to more than $2.12 billion, as analysts are now closely watching for a BNB price rally to all-time highs.
In BNB Price Ready for A Mega Rally?
BNB Coin has performed relatively well over the past month compared to Bitcoin and other altcoins. While BTC and top altcoins like ETH, SOL, XRP saw double-digit losses in March, BNB Coin is down just 1% on the monthly chart. After a strong consolidation of around $610 levels, the BNB price could be eyeing a strong breakout to new all-time highs.
BNB Burn and Pascal Hardfork Offer Support
BNB Coin features a real-time burn mechanism that permanently removes a portion of gas fees from circulation. Over the past seven days, 951.85 BNB worth $571,747.74 was burned, contributing to a total burn value of nearly $160 million, as per data from BNBBurn.
BNB’s price recently gained momentum following the implementation of the Pascal hard fork, which enhanced its compatibility with Ethereum. The network is preparing for additional hard forks this month and in June, aimed at further improving transaction speeds.
Additionally, BNB Chain is gaining a lot of popularity among meme coins, adding support for Mubarak meme coin, CZ’s Dog BROCOLLI meme coin, and others.
Looking at the technical setup, the BNB price chart shows that the altcoin is forming a cup-and-handle pattern, along with an ascending channel pattern formation, as shown in the image below.
On the other hand, BNB price is trading above the 50-day moving average, which is a positive indicator. But for the altcoin to kickstart a rally to its all-time high of $790, it must first complete the handle formation at $662, and give a breakout above that level.
As of press time, BNB Coin is trading at $603 levels with its daily trading volume up by 42%, surging past $2.12 billion. Furthermore, the Coinglass data shows that the BNB options trading volume is also up by 46%.
VanEck Files for Spot BNB ETF
$115 billion asset manager VanEck filed for the spot BNB ETF in Delaware on Tuesday, April 1, which could serve as a major catalyst for the BNB Coin rally ahead. The proposed BNB ETF would follow the price of BNB, the fifth-largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization.
Apart from BNB, VanEck has already submitted crypto ETF applications for Bitcoin, Ether, Solana, and Avalanche. VanEck filed for SEC approval last month to launch the first AVAX ETF, building on its success with spot Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs.

Tether’s latest transaction pushes its Bitcoin holdings to 92,647, valued at $7.7 billion at current market prices. With this latest boost to its crypto holdings, Tether remains one of the biggest Bitcoin holders in the industry.
Tether Slowly Builds Its Bitcoin Reserve
In the last few weeks, Bitcoin was the among the main agenda of US President Donald Trump for a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve (SBR). But last Monday, Tether made its presence felt by adding more Bitcoins to its already huge crypto reserve.
Tether’s crypto reserve is one of the biggest in the business as it’s used to back up its stablecoin, the USDT. Currently, Tether controls over5 60% of the total stablecoins market, with a market cap of $144 billion, compared to a total of $234 billion valuation for the whole stablecoin industry.
Tether’s latest transaction puts it in the big league, making it the sixth biggest holder of Bitcoin. According to Bitcoin Treasuries, Tether is the second-largest private holder of the asset, below Block.one. But if we zoom out and consider other entities and publicly-traded companies, Strategy (formerly MicroStrategy), and the top spot Bitcoin ETFs issuers beat Tether’s holdings.
Commitment To Invest In Bitcoin
Tether’s latest Bitcoin acquisition reflects the company’s commitment to Bitcoin. Interestingly, the company pledged to use a part of its net profit to buy additional Bitcoins. The company committed last May 2023, and stated that it will use 14% of its net profits to buy additional Bitcoins.
Tether’s most recent Bitcoin purchase was 8,404, which was made last December, which pushed its holdings to 83,759.
$1B USDT Into Reserves
Tether’s latest Bitcoin purchase coincided with the minting of fresh tokens. According to on-chain data, the stablecoin company minted $1 billion in tokens on Tron. Tether CEO Paolo Ardoino has confirmed the minting of a new USDT.
According to Ardoino, the minting of new USDT was authorized, but he insisted that this batch is not yet included in the circulation. They added that the newly minted USDT is now part of their inventory and will be used for future issuance requests. Tether has already minted $8 billion tokens on Tron since the start of the year, and recorded $22 billion worth of USDT minted last year.

Crypto expert Egrag Crypto has again predicted that the XRP price could rally to as high as $27. The analyst has also revealed the exact timeline for when the altcoin could record this massive price surge.
Expert Reveals Time For XRP Price To Hit $27
In an X post, Egrag Crypto asserted that the XRP price can hit $27 in 60 days. The expert remarked that historical patterns indicate that the altcoin can reach this target within this timeframe.
Based on this price prediction, XRP could reach this $27 target by June, marking a 1,250% gain for Ripple’s native crypto. The expert’s accompanying chart showed that he was alluding to the 2017 bull run as to why the altcoin could record such a parabolic rally.
In 2017, XRP recorded a historic gain of over 60,000% as it rallied to its current all-time high (ATH) of $3.8 the following year. As such, based on history, a 1,250% increase is nothing for the altcoin.
In the meantime, the XRP price still boasts a bearish outlook thanks to the sentiment in the broader crypto market. As CoinGape reported, Ripple’s coin could drop to the next major support levels at $1.79 and $1.56 if it fails to hold above $2.03.
Decision Time For The Altcoin
In an X post, crypto analyst CasiTrades stated that it is decision time for the XRP price. She noted that the altcoin is showing strength with a bounce right back to the first key test at $2.17. She added that this is the resistance level she wants to see flip into support, as it might be the “most important price of the week.”
The analyst stated that XRP must reclaim this level to build momentum. She added that the $2 level remains a valid target if the $2.17 level rejects. Meanwhile, CasiTrades revealed that $2.70, $3.05, and $3.80 are the major resistance zones once the upward trend is confirmed.
The analyst also mentioned that the XRP price is now fully inside the Fibonacci Time Zone 3, which spans most of April. She affirmed that this is the breakout window market participants have been preparing for and that all signs point to a macro wave.
CasiTrades affirmed that the structure is clean. The RSI divergence has confirmed the bottom, while the subwaves are aligning well with the larger targets. If the next leg pushes XRP back above $2.17 with momentum, she claimed that market participants may finally see obvious signs of Wave 3. Interestingly, the analyst added that if the altcoin clears $2.70 this week, it may break the $1,000 price extension.
For now, investors may remain cautious, especially seeing how XRP fell after the PMI and JOLTS data release earlier today. Donald Trump is also set to announce reciprocal tariffs tomorrow, which could spark a massive price crash.
