In an announcement made on December 22nd, Steven Cooper, the CEO of Bigger Entertainment, a music publishing group popular for holding the first crypto based record label, said that the company would be burning 176 million SHIB tokens during their December 26th Christmas party.
To enter the party, members of the Shiba Army bought a burn ticket for $5. By pooling together their resources, Bigger Entertainment saved the extra gas fees that would have otherwise been needed for each individual to perform their burn.
