Shytoshi Kusama, the anonymous lead developer of <a href="https://timestabloid.com/analyst-predicts-724-shiba-inu-if-shib-usdt-trades-above-this-level/">Shiba Inu</a>, recently addressed widespread misconceptions within the community regarding the importance of token burns to SHIB’s success. The statement came in response to ongoing debates about the role of burns in driving demand for the token. 
<h2 id="b-community-divided-over-token-burns-br-b">Community Divided Over Token Burns </h2> 
The discussion was raised when the 1 Cent Dream project <a href="https://x.com/1cDream/status/1865102217033683124">announced</a> the completion of its second burn campaign of 250 million SHIB tokens. This initiative aimed to decrease the circulating supply and urged the community to participate in future burn events. 
While some praised the effort, others criticized Kusama and the team for not implementing more significant burns. A notable comment came from a community member, <a href="https://x.com/jmgutz03691/status/1865150580013887751?s=46">Gunz0369</a>, who argued that increased burns are essential for attracting new investors and ensuring the asset’s future growth.

Kusama <a href="https://x.com/shytoshikusama/status/1865366872545186148?s=46">countered</a> these claims, arguing that Shiba Inu’s (SHIB) recent success proves its performance is not solely reliant on burns. He noted that despite limited burn activity, the token has achieved a remarkable 192% price increase year-to-date, currently trading at $0.00002986. 
According to Kusama, focusing exclusively on burns overshadows the broader factors contributing to the token’s growth. He emphasized that the token’s ecosystem, including utility, governance, and strategic partnerships, has been instrumental in driving success. Shibarium, Shiba Inu’s Layer 2 blockchain, is a key part of this ecosystem and has boosted sentiment and adoption. 
Kusama also pointed out that expanding the asset’s use cases and completing ecosystem projects will naturally lead to more burn opportunities. By attracting new users and increasing utility, the token’s circulating supply can be reduced effectively over time.

<h2 id="b-shibarium-s-role-in-the-ecosystem-b">Shibarium’s Role in the Ecosystem&nbsp;&nbsp;</h2> 
Shibarium has sparked debate within the community regarding its impact on token burns. While some users highlighted its contribution to Shiba Inu’s growth, others questioned its effectiveness in reducing supply. Critics argued that Shibarium relies on the token’s success rather than the other way around. 
Kusama addressed these concerns by explaining that Shibarium is part of a comprehensive strategy to strengthen the ecosystem. Since its launch, Shibarium has facilitated the burning of over 56 billion SHIB through gas fee allocations. Additionally, the burn portal introduced as part of Shibarium has automatically removed more than 300 million SHIB from circulation. 
Despite these contributions, Kusama emphasized that no single factor, including Shibarium, can be credited for the asset’s overall success. He reiterated that growth stems from the combined marketing, partnerships, and community engagement efforts. 
<h2 id="b-shib-burn-statistics-b">SHIB Burn Statistics&nbsp;</h2> 
Since <a href="https://timestabloid.com/when-elon-musk-disclosed-how-much-shiba-inu-shib-he-holds/">SHIB’s</a> inception in August 2020, over 410.74 trillion tokens have been burned, significantly reducing its initial supply. However, Kusama and other developers focus on long-term strategies rather than relying solely on token incineration. 
The lead developer encouraged the community to adopt a balanced perspective, recognizing the importance of innovation, utility, and partnerships in driving the token’s value. 
While token burns remain a topic of interest for supporters, Kusama’s statement underscores the importance of a multifaceted approach to achieving long-term success. By focusing on utility, strategic partnerships, and ecosystem expansion, the asset claims to sustain its growth and enhance its position in the cryptocurrency market.
