Shiba Inu layer 2 blockchain Shibarium stays quiet, but its role in the Shiba Inu ecosystem continues to extend beyond transaction activity, Shiba Inu long-time community member Mazrael noted in a recent X reply.

According to Mazrael, Shibarium continues to burn SHIB, powering ShibTorch, an automated token burning portal for Shibarium which converts transaction base fees collected in BONE into SHIB, permanently removing tokens from circulation to reduce supply and control inflation.

Mazrael noted a few hundred million SHIB were burned in ShibTorch over the last couple of weeks despite the relative quietness on Shibarium, adding that "don't need to be noisy to still run."
