SHIB Burn Skyrockets 4000% Amid Shiba Inu ETF Buzz
Dogecoin’s prominent rival, Shiba Inu (SHIB), has garnered noteworthy attention across the crypto landscape. With an approximately 4000% surge in its burn rate today, July 12, the meme coin has continued to refine its market dynamics. Intriguingly, the spike in the burn rate comes amid a potential SHIB ETF buzz, sparking further discussions across the global crypto community.
However, the meme coin currently illustrates signs of consolidation, adding a layer of intrigue among crypto market participants.
Burn Rate Spikes 4000%, SHIB ETF Optimism Persists
As per data streamlined by the tracker Shibburn, a staggering 3988.31% burn rate surge was recorded today. This upswing is primarily attributable to the destruction of 71.18 million coins in the past 24 hours.
Shiba Inu’s burn mechanism kills the total market supply, which now rests at 589.27 trillion coins. Notably, a whopping 410.72 trillion tokens have been burnt from the initial supply to date.
For context, as the supply takes a hit, Shiba Inu’s scarcity increases, staging as a bullish factor abiding by the law of supply and demand. The SHIB burning venture, in turn, has generated optimism for the meme coin’s future market dynamics.
Meanwhile, a recent buzz curated by Shiba Inu’s marketing lead Lucie on a potential SHIB ETF has garnered additional optimism toward the meme coin. CoinGape Media reported the executive to be highly bullish on a Shiba Inu exchange-traded product in the future. She also drew attention to the vital benefits of an ETF, further staging as bullish factors for the meme-based investment product.
However, as mentioned above, SHIB entered the red zone today, aligning with the broader market trend.

However, the weekly chart shows a 20.87% upswing in value, hinting today’s price fall is in line with the broader market trend. Besides, the token has shown signs of consolidation at the $0.000016 price mark since July 9. Also, the RSI moved along 41, hinting at a neutral market stance for the asset.

Elon Musk has doused optimism for the US government to adopt Dogecoin at the America PAC town hall event. The head of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) noted that the government agency only bears a nominal resemblance to the memecoin.
Elon Musk Dispels Rumors Of Dogecoin Adoption By The US Government
At a recent event, Tesla CEO Elon Musk cleared the air on the potential adoption of Dogecoin by the US government. In his keynote speech, Musk noted that the US government will not be adopting Dogecoin, contrary to swirling speculation.
Musk noted that the speculation gained traction following the launch of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE). Following the launch of DOGE and Musk tapped to lead the agency, enthusiasm for Dogecoin government utility reached new highs.
However, Musk clarified that the agency bears only a nominal resemblance to the memecoin, stemming from an internet trend. The Tesla CEO disclosed that the original intended name was the Government Efficiency Commission, opting for DOGE “because the internet is right.”
“The name is similar but they are two different things,” said Musk. “But there are no plans for the government to use Dogecoin as far as I know.”
Musk has a long and storied history with Dogecoin, famously shilling the memecoin and integrating DOGE payments for Tesla. Musk teased an anime-themed DOGE on X, setting the stage for a $2 rally for the memecoin.
DOGE Reacts Negatively To The News
Dogecoin price slumped by nearly 2% in the wake of the grim report. Currently, the memecoin is trading at 0.1660 as it eyes a push toward the $1 mark.
The negative fundamental adds pressure to reports of DOGE forming a falling wedge pattern, signaling a potential downward breakout. However, optimists are rippling with confidence that DOGE can shake off the negative sentiments to post new all-time highs.
One analysis claims that if the Dogecoin price breaks a 3-month trendline, an $8 valuation for the memecoin is in play. Others claim that the House of Doge Reserve launch will be a tailwind for Dogecoin price, sending the dog-themed coin on a strong rally.

Crypto inflows hit $226 million last week, signaling a cautiously optimistic investor sentiment amid ongoing market volatility.
According to CoinShares data, altcoins broke a five-week streak of negative flows, recording their first inflows in over a month.
Crypto Inflows Hit $226 Million Last Week
This turnout marks a significant slowdown from the previous week when crypto inflows hit $644 million, ending a five-week outflow streak. Before that, inflows peaked at $1.3 billion, with Ethereum outpacing Bitcoin in investor demand.
“Digital asset investment products saw $226 million of inflows last week suggesting a positive but cautious investor,” read an excerpt in the report.
The pullback to $226 million last week suggests a more measured approach by investors as they assess macroeconomic conditions and regulatory uncertainties.
Specifically, CoinShares’ researcher James Butterfill ascribes Friday’s minor outflows of $74 million to core personal consumption expenditure (PCE) in the US, which came in above expectations.
“The Fed’s preferred measure of inflation (Core PCE) moved up to 2.8% in February & remains well above their 2% target that has yet to be achieved. The market is expecting the Fed to hold rates steady again at their next meeting on May 7 (at 4.25-4.50%),” investor Charlie Bilello noted.
Nevertheless, this turnaround comes after nine consecutive trading days of inflows into crypto ETPs (exchange-traded products).
Despite the slowdown, Bitcoin continued to attract strong inflows of $195 million. Meanwhile, short-Bitcoin products registered outflows of $2.5 million for the fourth consecutive week. This suggests that investors are leaning bullish on Bitcoin, even as altcoins begin to recover.
The CoinShares report shows that altcoins saw $33 million in inflows last week after suffering $1.7 billion in outflows over the past month.
Altcoins Rebound After $1.7 Billion in Outflows
Ethereum (ETH) led the recovery, attracting $14.5 million, then Solana (SOL) at $7.8 million, while XRP and Sui recorded $4.8 million and $4.0 million, respectively. Market analysts believe altcoins may be bottoming out, creating potential buying opportunities.
“Altcoins are oversold. The bottom is close. We’re ready for a bounce,” renowned analyst Crypto Rover highlighted.
Other analysts echoed the sentiment, suggesting growing attention toward altcoins. Among them was trader Thomas Kralow, who said, “altcoins are setting up for a comeback.”
Adding credence to this bullish outlook for altcoins, project researcher BitcoinHabebe, known for insightful mid-low cap sniper entries, pointed to technical indicators suggesting a market reversal.
“While bears are trying to spread fear & make you sell your altcoins, the TOTAL3 [Altcoins market cap chart excluding Bitcoin and Ethereum] just bounced off an HTF [higher timeframe] retest,” the analyst stated.
This means most coins have bottomed out and are expected to start reversing soon. Cole Garner noted a key buy signal in market liquidity metrics, further supporting this view.
“Tether Ratio Channel already flashed a double buy signal this month. Now my lower timeframe version is popping off. Fresh capital incoming,” he indicated.
The Tether Ratio Channel is an on-chain analytical tool that helps traders identify potential buy signals. It tracks the ratio of Bitcoin’s market capitalization to that of stablecoins, acting as a leading indicator for short- to medium-term trends.
When the ratio hits certain levels, it can signal shifts in market sentiment, often indicating whether fresh capital is entering or exiting the market.
While overall crypto inflows have slowed compared to previous weeks, the return of capital into altcoins suggests renewed investor confidence. Analysts see signs of an impending altcoin rally, with market metrics indicating that most coins have bottomed out.
As investors weigh macroeconomic uncertainties, the coming weeks could be critical in determining whether the altcoin recovery sustains momentum or if caution prevails.

Cardano price is repeating a pattern from 2024 that experts say is a signal for a massive pump in the coming weeks. While present figures are largely underwhelming for ADA, investors are brimming with confidence for a strong reversal in the near future.
Cardano Price Can Reach $2.5 In May
According to pseudonymous cryptocurrency analyst Master Kenobi, Cardano price is exhibiting cyclical behavior. In a post on X, Master Kenobi notes that ADA’s consolidation in recent days mirrors its price action from Q3 of 2024.
At the time, Cardano’s price suffered a steep correction in early August and endured a lengthy consolidation period before rallying. Presently, Cardano’s price is consolidating after the deep in early February that sent prices to $0.49.
“ADA is currently in a consolidation phase that resembles its behavior from August-September 2024,” said Master Kenobi. “Since the dip on August 5, it hasn’t recorded a new low – just as it hasn’t now, following the dip on February 3.”
According to Master Kenobi, a lengthy consolidation phase will be the precursor for an impressive rally for Cardano’s price. The analyst theorizes that the incoming rally will send Cardano to impressive levels in May. In the short term, analysts are eyeing ADA to hit $1, citing rising whale activity and positive fundamentals.
“If this pattern holds, May could bring a massive pump, potentially pushing the price toward $2.5,” said Master Kenobi.
ADA Ripples With Bullish Activity
At the moment, Cardano price is trading at $0.6646, a far cry from its all-time high of $3.10. Despite the lull in price action, the ecosystem is brimming with bullish activity for higher valuation.
Investors have their eyes on $10 after ADA outperformed top S&P 500 companies in a strong show of resilience. Futhermore, increased whale activity in the space is signaling an impending rally for ADA as community sentiment reaches an all-time high.
Analysts have opined that an ADA rally to $10 is not a crazy prediction, citing a slew of positive fundamentals for the network. However, pundits are urging investors to brace for multiple corrections in the march to reach a valuation of $10.
