ScareCrow (SHIB Protector) Auto-Burn Mechanism:
Upon investigation, we found that ScareCrow (SHIB Protector) auto-burn mechanism is responsible for such massive burning. The ScareCrow token’s auto-burn mechanism alone sent a whopping 1,248,074,298 (1.24B) SHIB tokens to dead wallets through 10 separate transactions, as per data provided by Shib Burn.
ScareCrow (SHIB Protector) is also a newly emerged token using a unique auto-burn feature for SHIB. The token applies a 3% Buy Tax, 8% Normal Sell Tax, and 25% Early Sell Tax on holders that sell Scarecrow tokens within 24 hours of buying. ScareCrow automatically uses the taxed amount to buy SHIB and burns whenever someone buys or sells tokens.
Scarecrow has no official relation with the SHIB ecosystem or its team. Only SHIB, BONE, and LEASH are part of the Shiba Inu ecosystem. Therefore, investors should research before investing in such kinds of tokens.
