The Special Mint Party Event Twitter Spaces will be held on Sunday, January 15, and will feature ALPHA, live singers, guest speakers, and more. Special invited guests include Italian NFT Musician Violetta Zironi, PIXELATED Founder Sammy Arriaga, and Scottish NFT Musician Emma Miller.
As a part of the Shiboshis x Buggati Group Special Edition Release, the luxury handbag brand will host a mint party and Twitter Spaces session dedicated to the NFT project. The thread continued to reveal that the collaboration will simultaneously feature physical items and collectible NFTs for its “most devoted and supporting Shiba Inu’s NFT Genesis holders.”
There will be a total of 299 limited releases, alongside one exclusive 1st Edition release. The mint price is currently set at 0.24 ETH. Moreover, 95% of all mints will receive a Cross Body limited edition Luggage Bag from Buggati, while 5% of all mints will receive a limited edition Carry-On item.
Launched in August 2020 as a fork of the Uniswap token UNI, 10% of the SHIB’s total amount gets burned with each transaction. However, the burn is yet to affect the price as data from Dune Analytics disclose that big amounts of the SHIB tokens are still observed to be accumulated.
Nevertheless, due to the lack of practical use, apart from the sole purpose of accumulation, the coin has experienced a decline in daily active users. Currently, the token trades at $0.00008, while overlooking support levels around 0.00007.
