Shiba Inu Community Ramps Up Burn, Is SHIB Ready For A Rebound?

Abstract

The Shiba Inu (SHIB) community has been burning tokens for a while now.

The Shiba Inu (SHIB) community has been burning tokens for a while now. This burn is in an effort to reduce the supply of the meme coin, thereby increasing its value. There have been times where the burn has not been as high as expected but the community has been increasing its efforts to burn SHIB. This has led to a significant increase in the amount of SHIB being burned in the last week which could trigger some positive price movements.

Shiba Inu Burn Spikes Massively

Over the last 24 hours, there has been a massive rise in the amount of SHIB tokens being burned. Data from Shibburn on Twitter shows that there was approximately 23.3 million SHIB that were burned in the 24-hour period. Compared to the previous day, it is a more than 1,800% rise.

The tokens were burned across six different transactions, with a single wallet burning the majority of tokens. This wallet burned 19.2 billion SHIB in one transaction. But the total turn rate has plateaued since then as there have not been any more signifiant burns.

Presently, there have been 410.4 trillion SHIB that’s been burned. This figure also includes the amount that was burned by Ethereum founder Vitalik Buterin when about half of the total Shiba Inu supply was sent to his wallet. While approximately 30 trillion SHIB are currently staked.

Is SHIB Ready For A Run?

The rise in the SHIB burn rate is significant but it is only so compared to the amount that was burned the previous day. When put into dollar figures, it is not so significant, neither is it so compared to the circulating supply of the meme coin.

The Shiba Inu burn has not really had much of an effect on the price of the digital asset since the Buterin burn and this continues to be the case with so little supply being burned. So while a 1,800% increase in burn rate may be impressive, it is still not enough to impact the price.

This is apparent given that the digital asset has not been able to knock off a zero off its price. It lost its hold on $0.00001 last week and has been unable to reclaim it. There are still sell-offs happening in the market to minimize losses and SHIB is not left out.

For a significant spike in the price of SHIB to occur, there would need to be more demand for the digital asset as well as more of the supply being taken out of circulation. However, this seems unlikely as momentum all across the crypto market remains low.

US Calls for Restrictions on Sports Prediction Markets

The National Football League (NFL) has urged the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) to tighten rules for prediction markets on sports events. In a July letter, the NFL argued that current proposals fail to adequately protect the integrity of games and market participants. Key demands include banning contracts on events easily manipulated by individuals (e.g., a kicker missing a field goal), clarifying definitions to prevent gambling-like contracts, and explicitly prohibiting trading based on non-public insider information. The league also called for restricted person lists, a ban on margin trading, advertising limits, stronger user protections, and a minimum age of 21. This push coincides with an ongoing jurisdictional dispute between the CFTC and several states. The CFTC claims exclusive federal oversight, classifying event contracts as swaps, while states argue these platforms violate local gambling laws. Recent legal actions in Michigan and Minnesota highlight the conflict, with a federal court temporarily blocking Minnesota from applying a new law to CFTC-registered platforms like Kalshi and Polymarket. Meanwhile, prediction markets are experiencing significant growth. In June, driven by events like the World Cup, Kalshi's trading volume exceeded $31 billion (85% from sports contracts), while Polymarket's global platform hit a monthly record of $10.8 billion. However, platforms face legal challenges, such as lawsuits from Kentucky accusing them of operating unlicensed sports betting disguised as prediction markets.

Peskov Says Russia Is Among Top Five Leaders in AI Race. What Do Global Rankings Say?

On July 27, 2026, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov stated that Russia remains among the top five countries in the global AI development race. He acknowledged Russian models still lag behind leading U.S. counterparts but claimed they have reached a "very high level," aiming to close the gap with "superhuman efforts." He highlighted the differing approaches of Russia's GigaChat, built from scratch, and Yandex, which initially used foreign technology. However, this claim is not supported by major international AI rankings. Stanford University's Global AI Vibrancy Tool (2024-25) ranks Russia 28th out of 36 countries. The top five are the U.S., China, India, South Korea, and the UK. The Stanford AI Index Report 2026 does not mention Russia's position, focusing instead on U.S. and Chinese leadership across various metrics like investments and model performance. In benchmarks, GigaChat ranks 25th on the Russian-language LM Arena. While it passed a financial analyst exam in December 2025, its business usage costs are reportedly tens to hundreds of times higher than China's DeepSeek. In related developments, President Putin signed a law on July 26, 2026, establishing a legal framework for sovereign AI models and granting developers access to state data. Previously, Russia joined 28 other nations, including China, to establish the World AI Cooperation Organization (WAICO) in Shanghai. The article notes that rankings vary due to different criteria, such as research, investment, infrastructure, or responsible AI governance. While Russian authorities are bolstering AI through legislation and international cooperation, independent analyses suggest the country faces significant challenges, including a hardware deficit for training models, which legal frameworks alone cannot resolve.
