Since Buterin burnt 410.24 trillion Shiba Inu (SHIB) tokens, introducing the network to the deflationary mechanism, there have been over 1,000 independent burns.
In Q4, Bigger Entertainment, the music publishing group associated with the first crypto-based record label, became a significant part of the SHIB Burn Story.
Steven Cooper, the owner of Bigger Entertainment, who is also an avid Shiba Inu supporter, announced that his company will burn $100,000, or approximately 2.95 billion SHIB tokens. The burn will happen while the company builds the ultimate crypto music game, ‘MixDraft.’
Bigger Entertainment intends to raise the necessary money to develop the game by selling $6 postcards; $ 1 from every postcard will be used to burn SHIB. Cooper tweeted;
Together, we’re going to burn $100,000 in #shib while simultaneously building the ultimate crypto music game. We know this campaign isn’t for everyone, but for the community that trusts & believes in what we’re building, this is for you!

Shiba Inu to Have App That Burns SHIB Alongside Calories
Alongside the burning of 2.95 billion SHIB, Steven Cooper announced that his company plans to launch a Fitness App for Shiba Inu. According to Cooper, the app will burn SHIB tokens as users burn calories.
The idea for the app was first suggested by ‘Ask the Doctor,‘ a Canadian healthcare provider, however, Cooper recently announced that Big Entertainment would be developing it instead.
