Shiba Inu (SHIB) prints first death cross in 2023: Details

Yesterday, Shiba Inu (SHIB) was spotted forming its first bearish “death cross” this year as the daily moving average (MA) 50 has crossed below the MA 200. The last time Shiba Inu showed a death cross on its chart was in February 2022. After that, SHIB saw several months of price underperformance, in keeping with prevailing adverse market conditions. The bearish intersection of the two averages may indicate that the market is poised for a deeper plunge. However, the death cross may also signal the beginning of a bottoming period for a digital asset, so this is not always the case.

Shiba Inu (SHIB) burn rate soars 26,000%, will bulls leverage this metric?

Data provided by Shibburn tracker shows that yesterday, the Shiba Inu burn rate soared as high as 26,450%, with more than three billion SHIB tokens being sent to a dead wallet. The Shiba Inu burn rate is an important metric that shows how much of the token is removed from circulation, thus showcasing how the meme coin is deflationary. Deflation is a major consideration for investors, and chances are that SHIB bulls may leverage this metric to go on a defined bullish push for huge returns in the near future. The burn rate has frequently been linked to bullish price increases, and consistency in the burning can be a game-changer in predicting the short-term price outlook for the meme coin.
