THE LATEST CRYPTO NEWS

The Shiba Inu community was jolted by an unexpected surge of whale activity this week, involving a staggering $35 million worth of SHIB. The large-scale whale movement not only caught the community’s attention but also prompted a rare public reaction from Shiba Inu’s lead developer, Shytoshi Kusama. After months of silence, Shytoshi has seemingly resurfaced to acknowledge the massive transfer.  Shiba Inu Lead Dev Breaks Silence After Massive Whale Move After over three months of silence, Kusama reappeared on X as the Shiba Inu community reacted to a substantial whale movement. His return followed a repost by World Blockchain Capital about the unusually large transfer of 4,136,208,073,220 SHIB from the crypto exchange Coinbase to a private key wallet.  Related Reading: 121 Billion Shiba Inu Coins From Exchanges, Where Are They Headed With Prices Down? World Blockchain Capital tagged several members of the Shiba Inu community in the transaction, urging them to take note and highlighting how rare such a move has been recently. The transaction was first identified by market analyst Del Crxpto, who reported that the more than 4 trillion SHIB transfer was worth about $35 million.  Typically, when tokens are removed from exchanges and moved to a private wallet address, it often signals strategic accumulation or long-term holding by major investors rather than immediate trading activity. In this case, the size of the transaction ignited bullish sentiment from market watchers, especially in a period where the price is experiencing significant volatility and choppy action. Excluding the shock of the transfer, what really caught the interest of the community was Kusama’s unexpected reappearance. The lead developer had previously explained in an earlier post that his reduced visibility was due to a shift in focus toward other new projects.  At the time, he disclosed a new interest in Artificial Intelligence (AI) initiatives aimed at advancing the ecosystem. Kusama emphasized that, despite exploring new directions, he continues to work with SHIB developers, including Kaal Dhairya and others, to shape Shiba Inu’s next phase.  Analyst Eyes $0.0002 SHIB As Whales Return A new report by market analyst ‘SHIB Crack’ on X reveals that the price of Shiba Inu is showing signs of a massive breakout amid rising market activity. Currently, the SHIB price is in a downtrend, dropping by more than 6% this week and over 16% in the past month.  Related Reading: Will The Shiba Inu Price Hit A New All-Time High In 2025? Machine Learning Algorithm Answers Despite this severe downturn, SHIB Crack believes that the cryptocurrency is gearing up for a massive rise $0.00002. At the time of writing, the meme coin is trading at $0.0000082, meaning a surge to the analyst’s projected target would require a gain of over 142% SHIB Crack has attributed his bullish forecast to the recent sharp surge in whale activity. According to the post on X, SHIB whales have reemerged and are silently accumulating tokens, signaling confidence in the token’s potential to rally.

Shiba Inu has recorded a notable surge in spot trading activity on several exchanges over the last seven days. This provides a bullish outlook for the second-largest meme coin by market cap, which has been one of the underperformers in this market cycle.  Shiba Inu Sees Surge In Spot Trading Activity CoinGlass data show a 154% surge in Shiba Inu USD spot trading volume on Kraken over the last seven days. There has also been a significant surge on other major exchanges, such as Binance, Bybit, OKX, and Gemini, during the same period. This indicates that spot buyers may be stepping in to defend the SHIB price at a critical support amid the broader crypto market decline.  Related Reading: Will A Shiba Inu ETF Follow After Dogecoin? The Lone SHIB Filing Standing Against The Crowd Notably, Shiba Inu is one of the altcoins that are in the green over the last week, suggesting that the bulls may be in control at the moment. CoinMarketCap data shows that the second-largest meme coin by market cap is up almost 7% during this period despite Bitcoin’s choppy price action.  Meanwhile, further data from CoinGlass also shows that most leverage traders are currently betting on an increase in the Shiba Inu price, with the long/short ratio currently above 1. However, it is worth noting that derivatives volume is down by over 10% and open interest is down by almost 4%, which presents a bearish outlook for the meme coin.  Another positive for Shiba Inu, besides the surge in spot trading volume, is that the Fed is likely to cut interest rates again at this week’s FOMC meeting. This could inject more liquidity into the crypto market, with altcoins like SHIB benefiting from it. Meanwhile, Bitcoin is currently looking to hold above the psychological $90,000 level, which could pave the way for higher prices for SHIB given their positive correlation.   Community Gives Update On SHIB’s Progress In an X post, Shiba Inu community member Shibizens gave an update on SHIB’s progress over the last few days. The community member noted that over 45 billion SHIB have been moved off exchanges, indicating that holders are accumulating. Shibizens also alluded to a $35 million whale transfer into a private wallet, suggesting that SHIB whales are also bullish.  Related Reading: Will The Shiba Inu Price Hit A New All-Time High In 2025? Machine Learning Algorithm Answers Furthermore, Coinbase is set to launch Shiba Inu futures on December 12 for institutional and retail investors, which could boost the meme coin’s adoption. Meanwhile, NYSE Arca has filed the 19b-4 for T. Rowe’s Shiba Inu ETF, bringing the ETF one step closer to launch.  Shibuzens also highlighted upgrades on the Shibarium network, which could provide a major boost for SHIB. This includes the RPC upgrade, while a full privacy upgrade has been confirmed using encrypted tech. There are plans to roll this out by next year.  At the time of writing, the Shiba Inu price is trading at around $0.000008498, up in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap.

Shiba Inu has just logged its most intense burst of large-holder activity in half a year, raising questions over whether fresh volatility – and potentially renewed selling pressure – is around the corner. On-chain analytics firm Santiment reported the move on X, highlighting a six-month chart of Shiba Inu’s price, exchange balances and large transfers. According to the firm, “Shiba Inu has seen the highest amount of whale transfers since June 6th today, happening in tandem with a +1.06T net change to the amount of SHIB on exchanges. The #24 market cap in crypto is likely to see high volatility in the coming days.” What Does This Mean For The Shiba Inu Price? The chart shows 406 individual transactions exceeding $100,000 in value within a single day, the highest reading since early June. The second-highest peak occurred during the October 10 market meltdown, when roughly 300 SHIB whales were active, and the third came in mid-July, as more than 280 whales executed transfers. Related Reading: Shibarium Hack Fallout: Shiba Inu Team Criticized For Not Reporting Breach These “whale” transfers represent activity from large holders, trading desks and liquidity providers whose moves can materially affect market liquidity and order-book depth. At the same time, Shiba Inu’s exchange supply has jumped. Santiment’s overlay of “Supply on Exchanges (SHIB)” reveals a clear, abrupt uptick, annotated as “1.06T More SHIB On Exchanges in 24 Hours.” This reflects a net inflow of around 1.06 trillion tokens into exchange wallets, meaning more SHIB is now sitting in venues where it can be traded immediately. In market-structure terms, the combination of record recent whale activity and a sharp rise in exchange balances creates conditions that often precede significant price swings. Moving coins from self-custody to exchanges does not guarantee that they will be sold, but it increases the portion of circulating supply that is “sale-ready” and able to hit the order books at short notice. Related Reading: Will The Shiba Inu Price Hit A New All-Time High In 2025? Machine Learning Algorithm Answers Whether that translates into an outright dump is not yet visible on-chain. The same footprint could reflect whales preparing to sell, to arbitrage across venues, to supply liquidity, or to rebalance positions in anticipation of broader market moves. Santiment itself stops short of a directional call, limiting its guidance to the expectation that the Shiba Inu token “is likely to see high volatility in the coming days.” For now, the data point is clear: Shiba Inu’s largest holders have become more active than at any time since early June, and over a trillion additional tokens have shifted onto exchanges in just 24 hours. The direction of the next major move will depend on how that newly mobile supply is deployed. At press time, SHIB traded at $0.00000859.

The Shiba Inu price and its trajectory over the last few months have been a source of growing concerns for SHIB investors as the meme coin has failed to secure any meaningful recovery. Despite the Bitcoin price rallying, Shiba Inu has remained quite muted, failing to reach new all-time highs through the bull rally. Therefore, with only two months left in the year 2025, the question remains as to whether the Shiba Inu price can still rally to new all-time highs. Machine Learning Algorithm Predicts Shiba Inu Price Trajectory The machine learning algorithm at the Coincodex website has shown a trajectory for the Shiba Inu price that suggests that the meme coin is destined for more sideways action this year. The prediction for the new year is that the meme coin will continue to trade in a very tight range. Related Reading: Institutions Have Been Buying Solana Every Day For 2 Weeks, Is $300 Possible? Even with the Shiba Inu price currently trending more than 88% below its all-time high from 2021, the machine learning algorithm does not see it bouncing anytime soon. For the rest of the year, the cryptocurrency is expected to trade under $0.000012. This puts it in the tight range of $0.00001-$0.000012. Interestingly, though, the same way the machine learning algorithm has predicted no increase, there is no expectation of a decline. The trajectory of the SHIB price over the next two months shows an almost straight line, and then continues into the year 2026 in the same manner. When Will SHIB Hit New All-Time Highs? According to the machine learning algorithm, SHIB investors awaiting the meme coin to hit a new all-time high have a long wait ahead of them. The long-term prediction suggests that the Shiba Inu price will not hit a new all-time high in the next decade. Related Reading: Dogecoin Price Rally Above $0.74 ATHs In The Works As HTF Trend Holds This long-term prediction moves through the next three decades, going all the way into the year 2050, and yet Sh. For most of the time, the algorithm suggests that the cryptocurrency will only see double-digit growth for each year over the next couple of years. Interestingly, historical data also support muted performance for the Shiba Inu price for the rest of the year. CryptoRank website shows an average return of 0.31% for SHIB for the month of November and -9.84% for the month of December. If these hold, then it means that the SHIB price is more likely to decline than recover as the year moves toward an end. Featured image from Dall.E, chart from TradingView.com

The Shiba Inu derivatives market is again heating up, providing a bullish outlook for the SHIB price. This comes as the crypto market rebounds, with SHIB also recording notable gains in the past few days.  Shiba Inu Derivatives Market Heats Up With Rising Open Interest CoinGlass data shows that the Shiba Inu derivatives market is heating up, with open interest rising as much as 15% on November 8. This indicates that traders are again betting on a significant price movement from the foremost meme coin. Notably, SHIB broke above the psychological $0.000010 level amid this rising open interest. Related Reading: Here’s Why Dogecoin And Shiba Inu Prices Are Crashing, Is A Recovery Possible? Further data from CoinGlass shows the long/short ratio is 0.9, indicating that more traders are betting on a Shiba Inu price surge than a decline. Meanwhile, this development comes as the crypto market rebounds from last week’s crash, which saw BTC drop below $100,000, dragging SHIB and other altcoins down. SHIB is up over 8% since last week.  Fundamentals, such as the application for a Shiba Inu ETF, have sparked this rebound in SHIB’s price. This is expected to drive institutional capital into the SHIB ecosystem, potentially triggering price rallies. Furthermore, the U.S. government shutdown could end soon, which is also bullish for the SHIB price alongside the broader crypto market.  From a technical analysis perspective, crypto analyst SHIB Knight noted that Shiba Inu is slowly accumulating and forming a bullish pattern. He added that once it breaks out of this low range, it will go higher. However, Santiment data shows that SHIB whales are still on the sidelines and are not accumulating more coins. The whales’ transactions (transactions above $100,000) have been on a downtrend, with most daily transactions over the last two weeks in the single digits. SHIB Eyes Rally To $0.0003 Crypto analyst Javon Marks has predicted that the Shiba Inu price could rally to $0.00003. This came as he noted that SHIB looks to be already broken out of a key accumulation. He added that with prices having shown bull divergences earlier this year, the meme coin may be preparing for a surge of around 200%, which will lead to a retest of the resistance in the $0.000032 range.  Related Reading: Shiba Inu Team Shares Major News, Could This Trigger A SHIB Bull Run? A positive for SHIB is the parabolic increase in the Shiba Inu burn rate. Shibburn data shows that the burn rate has increased by 145952.08% in the last 24 hours, with 621 million tokens burned during this period. This is a positive, given how these SHIB burns remove more coins from the circulating supply and could trigger a price increase as demand skyrockets.  At the time of writing, the Shiba Inu price is trading at around $0.00001005, up in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap.

The Shiba Inu open interest has been one of the worst-performing among the top cryptocurrencies by market cap in the year 2025. While there has been a general increase in open interest across the likes of Bitcoin and Ethereum, pulling the market up with them, Shiba Inu has not followed this trajectory. Instead, the meme coin’s open interest has crashed significantly, making new 2025 lows in the process. Shiba Inu Open Interest Crashes Below $100 Million At the start of the year, on January 16, 2025, the Shiba Inu open interest had hit a new all-time high above $519 million despite the SHIB price action remaining relatively muted. It wasn’t long until the open interest began to decline, and it has been mostly downhill from there since. Related Reading: Dogecoin Price Resurrection To $0.5 Could Be Imminent If This Level Breaks By the start of February 2025, the Shiba Inu open interest had crashed by more than 50%, recording one of the sharpest declines in the market. However, the open interest had managed to stay above the 2024 lows as the SHIB price fluctuations kept traders interested. Now, however, the majority of the open interest that was seen in Shiba Inu at the start of the year is almost completely gone. Data from the Coinglass website shows that the open interest has now fallen below $100 million for the first time in 2025, marking a new yearly low. The current average of around $89 million translates to an over 80% decline in the last 9 months, painting a similar picture to the alt coin’s price, which is down 88% from its 2021 all-time highs. As this decline continues, it continues to impact the price, affecting its ability to stage a meaningful recovery. SHIB Could Be At A Pivotal Point As mentioned above, the last time that the Shiba Inu open interest was this low was back in 2024, but the interesting thing is that periods of low interest have often preceded some of the biggest moves. Back in August 2024, the Shiba Inu open interest had fallen to its lowest levels since 2023, but the next three months would see a rapid increase in both interest and price.

Shiba Inu’s effort to grow beyond being a meme coin is struggling. Its blockchain network, Shibarium, was created to bring real use and value to the project, but it has not gained much attention or activity. Developer interest and user engagement are very low, and the network’s overall growth has slowed down sharply. Recent network issues, including technical troubles and security problems, have made things worse. Many users have left, and new projects are not joining. As a result, Shibarium now shows very little activity, leading many in the crypto community to call it a “ghost chain.”  Shiba Inu’s Struggle To Evolve Beyond A Meme Coin Shiba Inu tried to change its image from a simple meme coin into a real blockchain project capable of competing with other networks. The team launched Shibarium, a layer-2 blockchain, in 2023 to help make this move. However, this plan has not worked as expected, with Shibarium failing to attract developers, projects, or users and gaining no market share. Related Reading: XRP At $1,000 Is Peanuts If Used To Clear US National Debt; Pundit Explains According to data from DeFi Llama, Shibarium has only 18 developers since it began. It is a much lower number than on other blockchains, which have hundreds or even thousands of active developers. The total value locked (TVL) on the network, which shows how much money people have invested in it, has fallen to just $878,000.  Shibarium has also failed to attract any stablecoins, which are among the most widely used tokens in decentralized finance. Not a single stablecoin project has deployed on the network, reflecting Shibarium’s lack of presence in one of the most critical areas of the crypto world. Other newer and more active layer-2 networks like Base, Arbitrum, Plasma, and Linea have already moved far ahead, leaving Shibarium behind. Hacks And The Decline Of Shibarium Network Activity Things got worse for the network when ShibaSwap, the most popular decentralized app (dApp) on the Shibarium network, was recently compromised. The attack eroded user confidence and forced developers to pause a key bridge connecting Shibarium to other networks. Even with the bridge now active, most of the network’s activity stopped. Many users could not move their tokens or use apps, making the network almost entirely silent. Related Reading: Here’s Why The XRP Price Still Isn’t Bearish Despite The 50% Flash Crash Because of this drop in network activity, Shibarium is no longer helping burn SHIB tokens. Typically, a portion of network transaction fees goes toward buying and burning Shiba Inu tokens, helping reduce supply and support the token’s price. But now, with very few transactions, the burn process has slowed down significantly. The decline in users, developers, and activity are indicators that Shibarium’s dream of becoming a strong, useful blockchain has not come to fruition. Instead of growing into a central crypto platform, it has become what some would call the real ghost chain.  Featured image created with Dall.E, chart from Tradingview.com

Popular technician Charting Guy (@ChartingGuy) calls Shiba Inu “weak and choppy” and suggests the token may not break out until late in the current crypto cycle. Sharing a weekly Shiba Inu chart, he wrote on Oct. 26, 2025: “SHIB has been weak and choppy all cycle. Won’t do anything until the end imo.” How High Can Shiba Inu Price Go? The below TradingView chart is a weekly SHIB/USD study anchored to a Fibonacci ladder. The price marker on the right rail reads $0.000010205, placing SHIB fractionally below the 0.236 retracement band annotated at $0.000011043. Above that, the chart maps successive overhead levels at 0.382 near $0.000016434, 0.5 around $0.000022661, 0.618 near $0.000031247 and 0.786 at about $0.000049369. The red 1 line flags $0.000088410, with higher extension markers plotted at 1.272 ≈ $0.000185406, 1.414 ≈ $0.000272917 and a terminal 1.618 ≈ $0.000475605. A stylized projection trace on the chart depicts a late-cycle, near-vertical advance that only materializes after a prolonged base and then stalls inside the 1.0–1.272 cluster before breaking above the 1.272 Fib extension and topping below the 1.414 Fib extension roughly at $0.000022; the path visually reinforces the author’s contention that SHIB underperforms until the “end.” Related Reading: Shiba Inu Holds Firm Despite 18% Crash, 1.5M Holders Signal Faith in 2025 Recovery In a separate post on Oct. 24, Charting Guy ranked market structures across majors and large-cap altcoins, explicitly placing SHIB in his “Bad Looking Charts” bucket while labeling Bitcoin, Ether, XRP, Solana, BNB and Stellar as “Good Looking Charts.” His list read, in part: “Good Looking Charts: BTC, ETH, XRP, SOL, BNB, XLM … Decent Looking Charts: XDC, DOGE, PENGU, ADA, ONDO, SUI, AAVE, LTC … Eh Looking Charts: PEPE, FLOKI, FLR, LINK, BCH … Bad Looking Charts: SHIB, WIF, ETC, AVAX, FET, RENDER, INJ, CRV, ALGO, SOLO, COREUM, NEAR, VET, COMP, DOT, IOTA, FIL, ATOM, And many more.” What To Expect The technical message is unambiguous: on a weekly timeframe, SHIB remains capped beneath early Fibonacci thresholds that many chartists treat as momentum gates. Remaining below 0.236 typically signals that price has yet to reclaim even the shallowest retracement of the prior cycle; clearing it often opens room to test the 0.382–0.5 midpoint zone where trends either accelerate or fail. Related Reading: Here’s Why The Shiba Inu Price Could Bottom And Rise Another 40% In Charting Guy’s map, structurally meaningful inflection areas stack tightly from roughly $0.000016 to $0.000031, with the 0.618 level near $0.000031 attributed the role of a trend-confirmation threshold. The cycle-top roadmap he drew concentrates risk and reward into the higher cluster around $0.000088 to $0.000185, a range often watched by Fibonacci practitioners for exhaustion and distribution in late-stage moves. However, a rise to $0.00022 could still mean an incredible upside for SHIB of around 2,055.81%—a roughly 20.56-fold increase. Contextually, his relative-strength table is just as important as the levels. By grouping SHIB with other “bad looking” structures while upgrading Bitcoin, Ether, XRP, Solana and BNB, he is signaling an expectation that market breadth will remain narrow and quality-led before any speculative rotation into meme-beta like SHIB. That framework aligns with his succinct call that SHIB “won’t do anything until the end,” implying a sequencing view rather than a categorical dismissal. At press time, SHIB traded at $0.00001046.

The Shiba Inu price decline following the October 10 liquidation was as swift as the rest of the market, and even now, the meme coin continues to struggle to reach its pre-crash prices. Nevertheless, there have been some developments among major metrics that could indicate that the Shiba Inu price is getting ready to mark a bottom. These range from the open interest to the trading volume, with both reaching levels that have previously marked the bottom for the price. Open Interest Crashes Toward 2025 Lows One major metric that has suffered when it comes to Shiba Inu is the open interest. This metric which tracks the total number of open contracts for the meme coin has dropped very sharply, alongside the price, and has reached levels not seen in nine months. According to data from the Coinglass website, the Shiba Inu open interest is now sitting below $80 million. The last time that the open interest was this low was back at the start of January 2025, right before the surge. Back then, the open interest being below $80 million marked the bottom for the Shiba Inu price. What followed was a quick uptick in the Shiba Inu price as investors began to take their positions once again. The result was a sharp uptick in the open interest, rising by over 800% in the next few weeks to reach a new all-time high open interest of $542 million. If history repeats itself, then this is when the Shiba Inu price could see a retracement. Volume Paints Possible Bullish Future For Shiba Inu Price Another metric that has fallen toward 2025 lows is the daily trading volume. Coinglass shows that trading volume is currently averaging below $200 million, which is quite low for the meme coin known for being one of the most famous meme coins in the space. The daily trading failing blow $200 million has often been one of the markers of a bottom for the Shiba Inu price. This was the case back in May 2025 before the price rallied 40%, and then again in July 2025, leading to another 40% rally. If this trend also holds, then it could be the precursor to another 40% rally. Coupled with the open interest crashing to 9-month lows, the Shiba Inu price might be on the verge of another upsurge.

Crypto exchange Changelly has predicted when the Shiba Inu price could delete three extra zeros and rally to as high as $0.01. Based on the prediction, the top meme coin is still over a decade away from achieving this milestone, even as it currently underperforms in this market cycle.   When The Shiba Inu Price Could Hit $0.01 Changelly predicted in a blog post that the Shiba Inu price could reach $0.01 by September 2040. Specifically, they highlighted $0.0106 as the maximum price that SHIB could reach by then. Meanwhile, the crypto exchange projects that the meme coin could still reach $0.0139 by year-end 2040, highlighting that price level as the maximum for December 2040.  Related Reading: Why The Shiba Inu Consolidation Could End Rapidly With An Explosive Price Rally The crypto exchange also expects the Shiba Inu price to record further upside from that level, predicting that the meme coin could reach a maximum price of $0.0177 by year-end 2050. This marks a gain of 160809.1% from the meme coin’s current price level. The SHIB burn is one of the mechanisms the SHIB community has adopted to achieve the $0.01 target for the meme coin.  The Shiba Inu burn tracker explained that reducing the number of tokens in circulation could increase the Shiba Inu price over time. The platform added that the community’s goal is to raise the meme coin’s price to $0.01. According to the Shiba Inu burn tracker, SHIB’s circulating supply needs to be 224 trillion for it to get to this price target.  Therefore, 61.98% of the meme coin’s circulating supply must be removed from circulation, representing 589.5 trillion tokens. SHIB currently has a circulating supply of 589.24 trillion, indicating there is still a long way to go before the meme coin reaches its 224 trillion target. However, the meme coin would also have to witness significant demand for these burns to have an impact on the Shiba Inu price.  A Recovery Is On The Cards For SHIB Crypto analyst Javon Marks stated that a more than 150% recovery move to $0.000032 is on the cards for the Shiba Inu price based on a bullish divergence that has formed for the meme coin. This comes as SHIB continues to struggle, with the meme coin one of the top altcoins with a year-to-date (YTD) loss.  Crypto analyst SHIB Knight said that the first target for the Shiba Inu price as part of its recovery is $0.00001209, which is the former accumulation zone. The analyst noted that when the market turns positive, SHIB is often among the first to recover. He claimed that this is mainly because of the strength of the SHIB Army.  Related Reading: Here’s Why Analysts Are Predicting A Massive Shiba Inu Price Rally In October At the time of writing, the Shiba Inu price is trading at around $0.00001065, down in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap.

Shiba Inu is back in focus as October begins, with the crypto now trading above $0.000012 after weeks of sideways movement below this price level. Despite the sideways price action, on-chain data is pointing to a change in metrics that could soon translate into a breakout.  Crypto analyst Zayn shared fresh on-chain data of Shiba Inu custody on social media platform X, pointing out that the meme coin may be setting up for what traders have nicknamed Uptober. Exchange Reserves Hit Lowest Level Since 2023 According to data from on-chain analytics platform CryptoQuant, Shiba Inu exchange reserves have fallen to 84.55 trillion tokens, valued at about $998 million based on the current price of SHIB. This is important because this is the lowest amount of SHIB held on crypto exchanges since 2023, right before the crypto market started to transition out of a bear market. Related Reading: Why Shiba Inu Price Could Explode 100% With This Descending Pattern On The 2D Chart Interestingly, CryptoQuant’s data shows that Shiba Inu’s exchange reserves have been locked in a consistent downtrend throughout much of 2025, with large outflows steadily draining tokens from exchange wallets.  That trend briefly reversed in September when SHIB’s price attempted a breakout above $0.0000146 but was rejected. The rejection triggered a temporary spike in reserves, likely as short-term investors moved their holdings back onto exchanges to sell into the rally.  However, CryptoQuant data shows that the exchange reserve has resumed its outflows in the past few days, which shows that a massive amount of tokens are leaving exchanges and moving into self-custody or staking. Why Does This Matter? The decline in Shiba Inu’s exchange reserves carries weight because it directly impacts the balance between supply and demand. A shrinking supply of tokens on exchanges often translates to reduced selling pressure, since fewer holders are in a position to offload their tokens quickly.  Related Reading: Can Meme Coins Like Dogecoin And Shiba Inu Still Rally? What To Expect At the same time, history has shown that significant drops in exchange reserves often precede phases of strong accumulation. These accumulation waves have acted as a foundation for rallies, and this gives a reason to believe that the current trend could once again set the stage for a meaningful price breakout. Zayn noted that SHIB is currently trading just below a descending resistance trendline with lower highs and higher lows since May 2025. The bullish outlook right now is a break above this resistance of higher lows. SHIB’s track record in October provides an additional layer of confidence for its price outlook. Since its launch, Shiba Inu has never recorded a red October. Even during the 2022 bear market, SHIB managed to close the month in profit.  This consistent performance, combined with the current depletion of Shiba Inu exchange reserves, is why analysts are increasingly convinced that SHIB could be on the verge of a significant rally. If the trend repeats, October 2025 may add another chapter to Shiba Inu’s history of Uptober rallies. At the time of writing, Shiba Inu is trading at $0.00001261, up by 2.4% in the past 24 hours.

Shiba Inu is approaching a decisive inflection on the 6-day SHIB/USDT chart, according to analyst CryptoNuclear’s October 1 TradingView update. The pair is pressing into a long-standing demand shelf between $0.00000850 and $0.00001183, a band that has repeatedly arrested declines since 2022 and underpinned the market’s extended sideways structure. The zone is highlighted as the market’s “make-or-break” area: hold here and the path opens to a multi-leg advance; lose it and the structure degrades into a deeper drawdown. Key Shiba Inu (SHIB) Price Levels Structurally, the macro picture remains defined by lower highs from the all-time peak, which continues to signal longer-term seller control. That said, the persistence of bids inside the $0.00000850–$0.00001183 box speaks to ongoing accumulation. The 6-day candles have compressed into a progressively tighter range, a classic volatility contraction that typically precedes expansion. With range width narrowing and tests of the same support recurring, the next directional move is likely to be sharp. On the topside, the first pivot is $0.00001580. CryptoNuclear frames this level as the initial breakout trigger on a 6-day closing basis, with volume confirmation required to validate impulsive intent. A decisive close above would expose a stair-step series of upside references at $0.00001940, $0.00002400, and $0.00003338, each corresponding to prior supply within last year’s distribution. Related Reading: Why Shiba Inu Price Could Explode 100% With This Descending Pattern On The 2D Chart Beyond those intermediate shelves sits a larger supply cluster at $0.00007870–$0.00008836, marked on the chart as the “High” band; in the event of a macro reversal, that zone could act as a longer-horizon magnet where profit-taking would be expected. Failure to defend the accumulation base flips the script. A breakdown through $0.00000850, especially on expanding volume, would invalidate the range thesis and shift focus to $0.00000543, annotated as the “Low” on CryptoNuclear’s chart and the next meaningful liquidity pocket below. Acceptance beneath that threshold would increase the risk of capitulation dynamics and the formation of new cycle lows, given the lack of dense historical trading in between. Market positioning follows naturally from the map. Optimistic dip-buyers view the $0.00000850–$0.00001183 area as value and a favorable risk-to-reward location, provided the market can reclaim and hold above $0.00001580 to convert resistance into support and sustain a trend continuation sequence. Related Reading: Shiba Inu Exchange Reserves Fall Below $1 Billion Amid Withdrawal Spree, What This Means For Price Cautious participants see symmetrical risk: the same compression that fuels breakouts can fuel breakdowns, and a daily-to-weekly close beneath the floor would argue for defense first. Neutral traders remain patient, waiting for confirmation via a 6-day close beyond either $0.00001580 or $0.00000850 before committing size. In sum, SHIB is coiled at a historically significant base that is likely to determine the asset’s macro path into 2025–2026. Respecting support keeps the recovery track intact toward $0.00001940, $0.00002400, and $0.00003338, with a more ambitious runway into the $0.00007870–$0.00008836 supply envelope if momentum broadens. Losing the base hands control back to sellers with $0.00000543 as the first downside checkpoint. For investors and swing traders alike, the $0.00000850–$0.00001183 zone—and the reaction around $0.00001580 overhead—are the levels to watch. At press time, SHIB traded at $0.00001231.

Shiba Inu (SHIB) is witnessing a significant shift on centralized exchanges, as fresh on-chain data reveals that the meme coin’s reserves have plunged below the $1 billion mark following a massive withdrawal spree. While this decline may seem concerning at first glance, historical trends suggest that such large-scale withdrawals often indicate a shift from selling to accumulation in the long term.  Shiba Inu Exchange Reserves Plunge To New Lows According to data from CryptoQuant, Shiba Inu’s exchange reserves have experienced a steep drop in recent months. As of September 28, 2024, SHIB’s supply across exchanges was approximately 143.62 trillion tokens, equivalent to over $1.5 billion at the time. However, by Monday, September 29 2025, reserves have thinned down significantly to 84.55 trillion tokens, valued at just under $998 million at current market rates.  Related Reading: Is Shiba Inu At Risk Of Losing Its Second-Largest Meme Coin Position To PEPE And MemeCore? Based on this timeline, the supply of Shiba Inu on exchanges has decreased by a whopping 59.1 trillion tokens in just one year. This marks the lowest level of SHIB held on exchanges since 2023, highlighting a shift in investor sentiment as withdrawals flood the market.  Notably, the sharpest decline in Shiba Inu’s exchange reserves this year was recorded on January 7. At the time, holdings across these centralized platforms fell to 107.84 trillion SHIB, marking a drop of more than 33 trillion tokens from January 6, when reserves stood at roughly 140.79 trillion coins. Since then, SHIB’s exchange balances have continued to shrink, decreasing week by week. The decline in available supply suggests that investors may be moving their tokens into self-custody or staking options, thereby reducing risks from widespread selling pressure. Historically, when exchange reserves plummet, assets become scarcer for trading, creating conditions in which price pressure can develop if demand increases.  At the same time, SHIB’s price has faced turbulence in recent months. The token is currently trading at around $0.000011, down from its local highs earlier this year. However, analysts like ’SHIB KNIGHT’ on X social media believe that the current dip represents a buying opportunity, pointing out that the meme coin has entered a key accumulation zone. He argues that long-term holders are capitalizing on lower valuations, slowly adding to each dip.  Technical Signals Hint At SHIB Price Breakout While Shiba Inu’s exchange supply declines, technical charts suggest that the meme coin may be preparing for its next price breakout. According to market expert ‘SHIB Mortal,’ Shiba Inu is showing signs of setting up for an “Uptober” rally. His chart analysis highlights a descending resistance trendline that the coin has repeatedly tested, paired with strong support around the $0.000010 zone. Related Reading: Why Shiba Inu Price Could Explode 100% With This Descending Pattern On The 2D Chart SHIB Mortal’s chart illustrates a potential reversal pattern forming, where the meme coin could bounce off current support, reclaim the trendline, and ignite a possible rally to $0.000019 by October. This move would mark a surge of over 70% from current levels around $0.000011.  Featured image from Getty Images, chart from Tradingview.com

Shiba Inu has spent the past several days trading in a downward path after a failed breakout attempt above $0.000015 earlier this month. Despite the cautious sentiment among investors, Shiba Inu’s chart structure on the 2-day candlestick timeframe is pointing to an interesting structure.  Related Reading: Shiba Inu Completes Bullish Setup: Why A 138% Climb Could Be In The Works A technical analysis by crypto analyst Jonathan Carter highlights a descending triangle formation that could set the stage for a strong bullish move. The setup suggests that if support holds, SHIB could be preparing for a sharp rally in the coming weeks. Shiba Inu’s Descending Triangle Formation Technical analysis of the Shiba Inu price chart on the 2-day candlestick timeframe shows the meme coin locked inside a descending triangle pattern with lower highs pressed against a descending resistance line and repeated retests of a support zone around $0.00001080 support. This level has acted as the most important Shiba Inu price floor since the beginning of the year, although buyers have been stepping in more around $0.000012 since August to defend it.  The descending triangle formation is starting to tighten, creating a pressure that often precedes an explosive breakout. This has led to a tilt toward the bullish scenario of Shiba Inu breaking above the upper trendline of the triangle. However, this depends on whether it can bounce at the support convincingly. If the support continues to hold, this pattern could be the springboard for a push to a bullish run.  SHIB Price Could Explode 100% As it stands, the Shiba Inu price is currently on a steady upward push, having rebounded at $0.000012 in the past 24 hours. It is now trading just below the 50-day moving average that it must overcome for bullish confirmation.  Related Reading: Shiba Inu Bulls Are Back: Here’s The 512 Billion SHIB Accumulation That Triggered A Spark Jonathan Carter’s analysis outlined several upside targets that could be unlocked once SHIB confirms a breakout from the pattern. The chart above shows a path that would take the meme coin directly into higher prices if it breaks above the upper trendline of the descending triangle. The first resistance is at $0.00001420, followed by $0.00001600, then $0.00001850, and finally $0.00002050. A successful rally through these levels would mark an increase of almost 100% from current prices. This bullish momentum might even be enough to position Shiba Inu for a return to the resistance zone around $0.00002460, an area last contested at the beginning of 2025. For this scenario to play out, SHIB must continue to defend its established support zone between $0.00001200 and $0.00001224. A breakdown below this base would invalidate the bullish outlook, leaving the meme coin vulnerable to another fall to the deeper support levels around $0.00001080.  At the time of writing, Shiba Inu is trading at $0.00001219. As long as buyers are able to maintain this support zone, the descending triangle pattern offers Shiba Inu a credible opportunity for a breakout rally.

Crypto analyst Javon Marks has revealed that Shiba Inu has completed a bullish setup and that a rally of around 138% may be on the horizon. Fundamentals such as the new SEC rule also provide a bullish outlook for the foremost meme coin.  Shiba Inu’s Bullish Setup Hints At 138% Rally In an X post, Marks said that Shiba Inu’s setup is still hinting at a rally of over 138%, which would send the SHIB price back to around $0.000032. He added that it is only a matter of time for this move to materialize as a bull signal holds confirmed, hinting at this move for the top meme coin.  Related Reading: Shiba Inu Bulls Are Back: Here’s The 512 Billion SHIB Accumulation That Triggered A Spark Before now, Marks had highlighted a divergence confirmation for Shiba Inu, which led to his prediction that a bullish reversal could still be in the cards for the meme coin. SHIB has underperformed up till now, with a year-to-date (YTD) loss of around 38%. However, the analyst has claimed that SHIB could still rally to as high as $0.000081, which would bring it close to its current all-time high (ATH).  The potential launch of a Shiba Inu ETF could be one of the catalysts that spark a parabolic run for the SHIB price. Marketing lead Lucie noted that SHIB has regulated futures on Coinbase, which makes it eligible for an ETF listing under the generic listing standards that the SEC just approved.  Lucie stated that the big picture for Shiba Inu is that SHIB now joins the “ETF-watchlist club” with other futures-backed cryptos. She added that even before a SHIB-only ETF, the meme coin could be bundled into a multi-asset-backed ETF. A Shiba Inu ETF would inject new liquidity into the meme coin’s ecosystem and could spark higher prices.  New ATH Incoming For SHIB In an X post, crypto analyst Shib Spain declared that a new ATH is incoming for Shiba Inu. He stated that the meme coin will bounce “hard” off the support zone around $0.000013 and rally to new highs. Crypto analyst Ragnar Shib remarked that SHIB is heating up, having recorded a 19% gain in the last 90 days.  Related Reading: Shiba Inu Diamond Hands Are Refusing To Sell, Bulls Eye $0.00009 ATH The analyst stated that Shiba Inu remains the number one meme token on Ethereum and is fully decentralized, boasting a growing ecosystem that includes the layer-2 network Shibarium, as well as DeFi and NFT products.  Crypto analyst Investing Haven highlighted that auto burns and the Shibarium upgrades continue within the SHIB ecosystem, which has helped reduce the circulating supply. However, he warned that the risk associated with the Shiba Inu ecosystem remains high.  He also noted that SHIB is witnessing a tactical pullback, although the bull structure is still evolving. In line with this, he advised investors to track the burn rate and fixes in the Shiba Inu ecosystem.  At the time of writing, the Shiba Inu price is trading at around $0.00001325, down in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap.

The Shiba Inu community is on high alert after a major compromise of the Shibarium bridge over the weekend. What began as reports from blockchain security firm PeckShield quickly escalated into a confirmed attack involving validator key leaks, flash loans, and malicious state changes. Developers have scrambled to contain the breach by freezing 4.6 million BONE tokens, but the situation has revealed vulnerabilities in the security of Shiba Inu’s infrastructure and has had an impact on Shiba Inu’s short-term price action. Developer Confirms Attack Details Taking to the social media platform X, Shiba Inu developer Kaal Dhairya revealed that the incident was probably planned for months and executed using a flash loan to acquire 4.6 million BONE tokens. After gaining access to validator signing keys, the attacker was able to gain majority control and approve a malicious state to siphon assets from the Shibarium bridge. Fortunately, the stolen BONE was delegated to Validator 1, leaving it locked by unstaking delays and giving the team a narrow opportunity to intervene. Related Reading: Shiba Inu Team Confirms Delayed Migration Is A Go, Here’s What’s Coming Dhairya confirmed that the developers immediately froze the compromised funds, suspended all staking and unstaking activity, and transferred stake manager reserves into a hardware wallet secured by a 6/9 multisignature setup. However, the moves were temporary until the extent of the validator compromise could be confirmed, but the developer assured the community that protecting assets was the team’s top priority. The breach drew quick attention from multiple blockchain security outfits. PeckShield, a leading blockchain security company, posted an Etherscan transaction showing the breach by the ShibaSwap exploiter on X.  However, Kaal Dhairya noted that the Shiba Inu team is working with PeckShield, Hexens, and Seal 911 to continue investigations on the incident and the next steps to take. According to a separate analysis by Tikkala Security on X, the losses appear to extend beyond the BONE freeze. The post claimed that multiple signer keys appear to have leaked in Shibaswap, which caused an estimated $2.8 million loss. Tikkala Security pointed to an attacker address on Etherscan and explained that the exploit involved repeatedly submitting legitimate Merkle leaf exit requests tied to a root signed by ten different addresses. Market Impact And Price Outlook Despite the severity of the breach, BONE’s market price spiked by over 20% in the hours following the freeze announcement, and this is likely due to the rapid containment. However, the BONE price has calmed, and the breach could have long-term effects that extend beyond the next few days.  Related Reading: Shiba Inu Breakout Structure Suggests 670% Rally To $0.000155 The Shibarium bridge is important to Shiba Inu’s strategy. Any lingering doubts about validator integrity or the scope of the losses could weigh heavily on the price of Shiba Inu and BONE. As it stands, both the Shiba Inu and BONE prices have reversed gains in the past few hours. At the time of writing, BONE is trading at $0.1959, down by 4.4% in the past 24 hours, but still up by 24% from its price point seven days ago. Shiba Inu, on the other hand, is trading at $0.00001305, down by 7% in the past 24 hours. Featured image from iStock, chart from Tradingview.com

On-chain data shows that Shiba Inu diamond hands are holding on to their coins despite the meme coin’s underperformance in recent times. This comes as SHIB bulls eye a new all-time high (ATH), with the meme coin potentially reaching $0.00009.  Shiba Inu Holders Are Refusing To Sell Despite SHIB’s Underperformance Glassnode data shows that Shiba Inu’s holder retention rate is currently at 96%, having been on an uptrend over the last thirty days. The metric tracks the percentage of addresses that have held SHIB over the past 30 days. An uptick indicates that holders aren’t selling but instead even accumulating more coins.  Related Reading: Shiba Inu Market Maker Is On The Move With Billions Of SHIB, Here’s What We Know Furthermore, Santiment data confirms that investors are still accumulating Shiba Inu, despite SHIB’s underperformance. Notably, the number of holders have continued to rise amid the price downtrend, and there are now 1.53 million SHIB holders. This comes as the meme coin looks to hold above the psychological $0.000010 price level.  However, a negative for SHIB is the downtrend in the holdings of Shiba Inu whales. Santiment data shows these whales have continued to offload their coins amid the meme coin’s underperformance. These whales refer to those holding 10 million coins and above. Notably, they account for over 98% of the meme coin’s total supply.  This also explains why there have been more exchange inflows than outflows, highlighting the fact that there is currently more supply than demand. On September 5, the exchange inflows were 73.73 billion SHIB while the outflows were 46.25 billion coins. Meanwhile, supply on exchanges remains sideways, with whales choosing to offload their coins and stay on the sidelines rather than actively buying the dip.  SHIB Bulls Eye New ATH Shiba Inu bulls are eyeing a new all-time high for the meme coin despite its underperformance this year. Crypto analyst Javon Marks has also fuelled the bullish outlook for the SHIB price, predicting that it could record a rally of over 500%, which would bring it close to its current ATH of $0.00008845. Related Reading: Shiba Inu Price Forms Double Bottom At Demand Zone — What To Expect In an X post, Marks said that Shiba Inu has confirmed a bullish pattern in a regular bull divergence with the MACD Histogram. He explained that this suggests that the SHIB price is about to record a major bullish reversal to the upside, which can include a move of over 163% back into the $0.00003 range. The crypto analyst further remarked that this move may only be the start. He stated that the 163% move could be part of an over 570% run to the $0.000081 breakout target if the Shiba Inu price continues to hold well broken out of an older structure.  At the time of writing, the Shiba Inu price is trading at around $0.00001230, up in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap.

Shiba Inu (SHIB) has taken a big step into a new area of decentralized finance, making it part of a cross-chain lending and borrowing market. This latest move was made possible by an integration with Chainlink (LINK) and a new listing on Folks Finance.  Shiba Ibu Official Announcement Confirms Cross-Chain Lending Launch The news was confirmed directly by SHIB’s official account on X. The team said that SHIB is now available for lending and borrowing on Folks Finance. Following the announcement, token holders can participate in new financial activity by depositing the tokens to earn yields or using them as collateral across different blockchains. Related Reading: You Won’t Believe How Much Of The Shiba Inu Supply The Top 10 Addresses Control Chainlink’s Cross-Chain Interoperability Protocol (CCIP) has enabled Shiba Inu to function as a cross-chain token. By adopting CCIP, SHIB is no longer limited to one network and avoids the liquidity trap on separate chains. With the integration, digital assets can be transferred seamlessly between blockchains, supporting lending and borrowing within a single, interconnected system. According to the official announcement, the CCIP protocol resolves the liquidity issue of liquidity fragmentation. Using Chainlink’s technology, SHIB has entered a new stage where it can serve as part of the cross-chain DeFi market. This key move makes the token the first memecoin to join Folks Finance’s lending markets. In the announcement, the SHIB team also said that incentives for depositors were already active. Depositors and users who add SHIB tokens to Folks Finance can immediately participate in the program and benefit from the new market structure. Folks Finance Hails Shiba Inu As First Memecoin In Cross-Chain Markets Folks Finance also shared the development on its official X account. The platform described the Shiba Inu token as “the first memecoin with cross-chain lending markets.” This description shows the significance of the listing because no other memecoin has reached this level of cross-chain DeFi market presence before. Folks Finance notes that the memecoin has transitioned into a category that allows it to participate in broader DeFi activities. Related Reading: Is Binance Manipulating XRP Price And Driving The Crash? Analyst Gives Answers The digital asset now connects to a system that allows lending, borrowing, and liquidity, and the team at Folks Finance also highlights the integration powered by Chainlink’s CCIP. The post also stated that anyone can now deposit and borrow SHIB on any part of the protocol’s chain. The single unified pool with deep liquidity creates a situation where users do not need to worry about fragmented markets.  The SHIB team and Folks Finance announcements show that Chainlink’s CCIP has brought Shiba Inu into a new market. The integration has given SHIB new use cases beyond its original status as a memecoin. With cross-chain lending, borrowing, and incentives now available, Shiba Inu could become part of a growing decentralized finance market that spans many chains, opening doors for stronger adoption in the future.  Featured image from DALL.E, chart from TradingView.com

New data from Santiment has revealed that the top 10 Shiba Inu (SHIB) addresses control over 62% of the entire token supply. The crypto analytics platform shared the update on Tuesday, posting percentages of supply held by the top blockchain wallets of popular Ethereum-based tokens on X.  Santiment Data Reveals Top 10 Wallets Hold Over 62% Of Shiba Inu Supply According to the Santiment report, the concentration of Shiba Inu supply in the hands of the top 10 wallets is striking. According to the data, out of Shiba Inu’s original one quadrillion tokens, 62.3% are now controlled by only ten addresses. This figure amounts to around 623 trillion SHIB tokens.  Related Reading: Is Binance Manipulating XRP Price And Driving The Crash? Analyst Gives Answers Public blockchain data available on Etherscan offers an even closer look at these leading Shiba Inu addresses, giving more detailed information about the wallets and the amounts of SHIB they currently hold.  The biggest wallet in this group is the official Shiba Inu burn address created when Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin sent over 410 trillion SHIB to the address in 2021. This address contains 410.43 trillion SHIB, making it the largest single holder in the ecosystem. Tokens in this wallet are considered permanently removed from circulation. Another primary address also holds a large amount of SHIB. This wallet contains about 53.37 trillion tokens, equal to 5.33% of the total supply. The wallet may be associated with a decentralized exchange or a smart contract. These two top wallets together already make up a large part of the Shiba Inu supply, while a mix of exchanges and other entities fills the rest of the list. Exchanges Dominate The Biggest Shiba Inu Holdings The data also shows that several of the largest wallets belong to major centralized exchanges. Robinhood appears on the list as one of the most oversized holders. The wallet linked to Robinhood currently holds 39.27 trillion SHIB, which represents 3.92% of the total supply. Binance is also a leading holder of Shiba Inu. The address labeled Binance Hot Wallet 20 contains 30.71 trillion tokens, or 3.07% of the total supply. Another address, Binance 28, holds 19.51 trillion SHIB, equal to 1.95%. Related Reading: Dogecoin Price Set For Explosive Rally If This Structure Holds Crypto.com is another exchange with a large wallet among the top 10.

A separate wallet contains 9.04 trillion SHIB, or 0.9%.  Finally, the tenth-largest Shiba Inu holder controls approximately 7.65 trillion tokens, which equates to 0.76% of the total supply. The wallet may also be related to a decentralized exchange. Featured image from DALL.E, chart from TradingView.com

Crypto analyst Jonathan Carter has alluded to a technical pattern for Shiba Inu, which points to a breakout to the upside. Based on this, he predicted that the meme coin could soon break above the psychological $0.00002 level, which could pave the way for higher prices.  Shiba Inu Confirms Descending Channel Breakout In an X post, Carter said that the Shiba Inu descending channel breakout has been confirmed. He noted that the meme coin has successfully broken above the descending channel and is currently consolidating just below the MA 50 on the daily timeframe. Based on this, the analyst indicated that SHIB could record a rally of over 100%.  Related Reading: Shiba Inu Price Set For 650% Expansion To $0.00009 ATH If This Happens This came as Carter stated that a move above this MA could trigger an explosive rise toward targets at $0.00001400, $0.00001750, $0.00002050, and $0.00002500. Meanwhile, his accompanying chart showed that Shiba Inu could rally further to $0.000033 if it successfully breaks above $0.000025. However, the $0.000033 level will mark a huge resistance for the meme coin.  Notably, crypto analyst Javon Marks recently predicted that Shiba Inu could record a rally of over 163% to the $0.00003 range. He stated that the SHIB price had formed a bullish pattern in a regular bull divergence, which the MACD Histogram confirmed. Based on this, he declared that a reversal was on the horizon, with the meme coin rallying to the upside.  These bullish predictions come amid a bearish sentiment toward the Shiba Inu price. The meme coin has underperformed the broader crypto market and is down over 42% year-to-date (YTD). However, crypto analyst Shib Spain is still bullish on the meme coin. He stated that the longer the meme coin’s accumulation continues, the more powerful the explosion will be.  SHIB At Crossroads At The Moment In a TradingView post, crypto analyst CobraVanguard suggested that the Shiba Inu price is at a crossroads at the moment. This came as he highlighted a triangle pattern, which he stated would break in the direction it is breached, and the price would then move in that direction. His accompanying chart showed that $0.000012251 is the key level to watch out for as the meme coin decides its next move.  Related Reading: Can Dogecoin And Shiba Inu Prices Recover? What To Expect In September A breakdown below this price level could send Shiba Inu to as low as $0.000011269. Meanwhile, a successful break above this level could send the meme coin to as high as $0.000014183 in the short term. This marks one of the price levels that Carter mentioned as SHIB eyes a rally above the psychological $0.00002 level.  At the time of writing, the Shiba Inu price is trading at around $0.00001240, up in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap.

Shiba Inu (SHIB) is showing signs of a powerful comeback as fresh bullish signals emerge on the charts. A rare divergence pattern is fueling speculation of a massive reversal, with analysts eyeing a potential rally that could stretch as high as $0.000081. But can SHIB really sustain the momentum for such an explosive rally? Bullish Divergence Sparks Hopes Of A Reversal In a recent update shared on X, Javon Marks revealed that Shiba Inu has confirmed a bullish pattern through a regular bullish divergence on the MACD histogram. This technical development signals a notable shift in momentum that could mark the beginning of a major reversal for SHIB, with buyers slowly regaining control of the market structure. Related Reading: Shiba Inu Price Forms Double Bottom At Demand Zone — What To Expect Javon Marks further explained that this signal points to a possible 163% surge, which could lift SHIB back into the $0.00003 range. Such a move would not only signal renewed bullish strength but also mark an important recovery from the recent periods of consolidation and price weakness that have kept the token under pressure. The analyst also stressed that this projection may represent only the first leg of a much larger rally, suggesting that the token is preparing for a sustained upward move rather than a short-lived bounce. Looking further ahead, Javon Marks outlined an even more ambitious scenario for SHIB. If bullish momentum continues to build, the breakout pattern could fuel an extraordinary 570% run, potentially driving the price toward the $0.000081 target. Such a move would dramatically reshape SHIB’s long-term outlook, establishing it as one of the most aggressive rebound moments in the crypto market. Shiba Inu Key Technical Outlook Presently, the first significant resistance sits near $0.000017, a level that has acted as a barrier in recent sessions. A successful close above this zone could open the door toward $0.0000204, and potentially drive SHIB toward the $0.0000263 mark. Breaking through these levels would confirm renewed bullish momentum and could encourage further accumulation by buyers. Related Reading: How High Can Shiba Inu Climb In 2025? Analyst Gives Candid Outlook On the downside, SHIB has immediate support around $0.0000080, which aligns with recent lows. A deeper pullback could test the $0.0000065 region, where the 100-day moving average currently provides backup. If bears manage to push the price below this level, SHIB risks revisiting the $0.00000534 support area, which would likely increase selling pressure. For now, Shiba Inu remains in a wait-and-see zone. A decisive break above resistance could spark a bullish continuation, while failure to hold above near-term support might expose the token to further downside.

Shiba Inu’s active addresses have crashed over 50% in three months, providing a bearish outlook for the top meme coin. This development has also coincided with the SHIB price crash during this period.  Shiba Inu’s Active Addresses Crash Over 50% Santiment data shows that Shiba Inu’s active addresses have crashed by over 50% since they peaked on May 2 at around 7,800. Since then, this metric has been on a downtrend, dropping to as low as 2,500 earlier in June. Now, the number of active SHIB addresses is currently at an average of 3,000.  Related Reading: Shiba Inu Exec Gives Reasons To Keep Going Despite SHIB Price Crash The drop in Shiba Inu’s active addresses has followed the crash in the SHIB price. Notably, the meme coin reached a peak of around $0.17 in May and has been in a downtrend since then. CoinMarketCap data shows that Shiba Inu is down over 10% from its 3-month high in May. SHIB’s decline has occurred despite the bullish sentiment in the broader crypto market.  During this period, Bitcoin and Ethereum have rallied to new all-time highs (ATHs). However, the SHIB price has underperformed despite its positive correlation to the flagship crypto assets. Meanwhile, Shiba Inu’s network growth also paints a bearish picture for the meme coin. Santiment data shows that this metric has been on a downtrend since it peaked in July.  Back then, the network growth hit 2,309 in reference to the number of new users adopting Shiba Inu. Since then, the network growth has spiraled down, dropping to as low as 1,078 on September 1. However, a positive for the SHIB price is that the number of holders has increased during this period.  Santiment data shows that the total number of SHIB holders has increased during the past three months and is currently at 1.53 million. This suggests that investors continue to believe in the SHIB price’s trajectory, despite its underperformance so far. The meme coin is down over 43% year-to-date (YTD).  SHIB Price Confirms Bullish Pattern From a technical analysis perspective, crypto analyst Javon Marks has also provided a bullish outlook for Shiba Inu. In an X post, he stated that the SHIB price has confirmed a bullish pattern in a regular bull divergence, as indicated by the MACD Histogram.  Related Reading: Shiba Inu Price Set For 650% Expansion To $0.00009 ATH If This Happens Marks explained that this suggests that a major bullish reversal back to the upside may be on the horizon. This could include a rally of over 163% to the $0.00003 range, which the analyst claimed may only be the start. As the SHIB price continues to hold its breakout over an older structure, he predicted that the meme coin could record a rally of over 570% to the $0.000081 breakout target.  At the time of writing, the Shiba Inu price is trading at around $0.00001228, up over 2% in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap.

Among the top performers from the past cycle, Shiba Inu has struggled to hold its own as its price has tumbled by more than 85%. As a result, the meme coin has been pushed out of the top 20 cryptocurrencies by market cap as the price continues to struggle. However, there could be a turn in the tide for the Shiba Inu price after a major price formation at a demand level. This historically bullish move could spell the start of another major rally for the meme coin. Shiba Inu Price Shows Bottom Signal After tumbling below $0.000013, the Shiba Inu price has now reached a critical level that suggests a big move is on the horizon. This was highlighted by crypto analyst MyCryptoParadise, who identified the formation of a classic double bottom pattern. While double bottoms are not exactly rare, what makes this one so important is the level at which it was formed. Related Reading: Is The Bitcoin Price Bottom In? Here’s What Social Sentiment Says As the crypto analyst points out, this classic double bottom formation has taken place around the $0.000012 level. This is a historical demand zone for the Shiba Inu price, which refers to a point where there is usually a lot of buy pressure for a digital asset. The formation at the support zone leads to a bullish structure that has more often than not led to a major price rally for a cryptocurrency. This means that this could be the start of a bullish reversal, and all that needs to happen is for the bulls to maintain their momentum at this point. Once the price breaks through the resistance at $0.000013, then it only needs to surmount the weak resistance that has built up at $0.00001345. This will actually lead to the level of importance, which lies between $0.00001428 and $0.00001445. These levels are important due to high liquidity, and the analyst explains that “if taken out with strength, SHIB could trigger a sharp rally that leaves latecomers chasing.” The Bears Still Have A Chance The formation of the classic double bottom pattern at the demand zone is inherently bullish, but it doesn’t completely eliminate the possibility that bears could still regain control. A bearish scenario could be reached if the meme coin completes a daily close below the demand zone at $0.000012. Related Reading: Pundit Calls Bitcoin Price Crash Below $93,000, Reveals Bear Targets From Here Such a move would invalidate the bullish momentum for the Shiba Inu price, signaling trouble for the meme coin. Further declines inside the current descending channel would put the Shiba Inu price on a path toward $0.000011 again. Featured image from Dall.E, chart from TradingView.com

Shiba Inu’s price action in recent days has been largely subdued, and many traders would argue it has had the most disappointing meme performance lately. The price has been range-bound between $0.00001345 and $0.00001190 for much of August, showing low volatility as traders wait for a decisive move.  Nonetheless, a new technical analysis suggests that SHIB may be approaching the end of its consolidation cycle. According to analyst Kamran Asghar, the weekly chart is showing signs of preparing for a major expansion phase that could unlock a rally of more than 650%. Shiba Inu’s History Of Explosive Expansions The weekly candlestick timeframe chart shared by Kamran Asghar shows that Shiba Inu has repeatedly followed a cycle of prolonged accumulation phases before launching into massive expansions. Looking back as far as July 2021, SHIB experienced a 1,154% rally after a lengthy consolidation period.  Related Reading: Bybit Exchange Unveils Massive Shiba Inu Balances In The Trillions As Price Tanks Interestingly, this pattern repeated again in early 2024 when the price surged by over 501% after another extended accumulation stage. Both cycles were characterized by weeks of sideways action, followed by sudden vertical rallies that took SHIB to new highs in a short span of time. The current setup has strong similarities to these earlier phases. For one, the Shiba Inu has been locked in a tight accumulation range for several months since the beginning of 2025. This accumulation range has been characterized by low volatility between the upper end of $0.000020 and the lower end of $0.000010 for most of the year. Now, given the precedent of the last two breakouts, Shiba Inu’s ongoing consolidation may already be nearing its end. The 650% Expansion To $0.00009 If history repeats, the next move could cause another Shiba Inu price explosion on the weekly candlestick timeframe. According to the analyst’s projection, the massive expansion would see the Shiba Inu price increase by 650%, which would see it reach a target of $0.00009.  Related Reading: Shiba Inu Exchange Supply Drops Toward New Lows, What This Means For Price This level coincides with the chart’s projection for a new all-time high, as it would see Shiba Inu break above the peak of $0.00008616 that has held since 2021. The projection is based on measuring past expansions and overlaying an average of the two on the current price structure. Although the projected 650% increase is less than the 1,150% rally witnessed by Shiba Inu in the 2021 rally, the volume needed in this case would be far greater.  As such, the most important factor that will determine whether this breakout will occur is demand volume. In both prior expansions, Shiba Inu ’s rallies were caused by sudden surges in demand that pushed the price out of its accumulation box with high conviction. Without this surge in volume liquidity, Shiba Inu’s price action may continue drifting sideways within the consolidation range. At the time of writing, Shiba Inu is trading at $0.00001236, down by 3.8% in the past 24 hours. Featured image from Getty Images, chart from Tradingview.com

Shiba Inu (SHIB) is experiencing renewed interest after fresh data revealed a massive 300% spike in on-chain activity. The meme coin recorded one of its most significant surges in transaction volume in months, indicating a possible sign of the market bottoming as large holders seemingly prepare for the next leg.  Shiba Inu Sees Explosive On-Chain Growth Shiba Inu’s on-chain activity has erupted in recent days, with token transfer volumes recording a major increase. According to Etherscan’s data, on August 25, SHIB’s transfer volume surged over 4.25 trillion tokens, representing a 300% increase from the 1.13 trillion recorded the previous day. This sudden rise highlights renewed liquidity flows and investor participation, possibly signaling that Shiba Inu may be gearing up for a market bottom.  Related Reading: Shiba Inu 699,000% Imbalance: What Happened To Trigger It? Interestingly, despite the dramatic surge in volume, transaction counts did not follow the same upward trend. Data shows that while August 24 saw 5,478 transfers, the number slightly declined to 5,355 on August 25, marking a drop of 123 transactions. This disparity suggests that the spike in Shiba Inu’s on-chain volume was not driven by a higher number of transfers, but rather by larger transaction sizes, indicating renewed whale activity or significant reallocations within the ecosystem.  As of August 27, SHIB’s transfer volume slightly cooled to 3.26 trillion tokens, with transaction counts dropping significantly to 4,811. Despite this reduction, the metric still reflects a strong level of on-chain engagement compared to prior weeks. With the Shiba Inu price currently consolidating around the $0.000012 range, the recent surge in transfer volume may suggest that the market is finding its floor before the next expansion phase.  Analyst Says SHIB’s Consolidation May Be Ending A new chart analysis by crypto market expert Kamran Asghar has added a fresh layer of optimism for Shiba Inu holders. Sharing his insights on X social media, Asghar hinted at the possibility that SHIB’s long-term consolidation may be coming to an end. Related Reading: Shiba Inu Head And Shoulders Pattern Signals 540% Upshoot To New All-Time Highs The analyst noted that Shiba Inu’s accumulation pattern is strikingly similar to those of previous consolidation phases that preceded massive price rallies. The accompanying chart shows three distinct accumulation zones in the meme coin’s history. The first occurred before its 1,154.2% rally in late 2021, while the second phase led to a 501.23% surge in early 2024.  Now, Shiba Inu is trading within an extended accumulation zone again, and Asghar suggests this could be the setup for another explosive move. If the current pattern holds, the analyst predicts that the next breakout could see the meme coin’s price skyrocket toward $0.00009, marking a new all-time high. As of writing, Shibua Inu is trading at $0.0000126, meaning a rally to this projected target would represent a significant increase of approximately 614%.

Shiba Inu’s layer-2 network, Shibarium, has suffered a significant decline in its daily transaction metric, providing a bearish outlook for the top meme coin. This comes as the SHIB price looks to stage a rebound alongside the broader crypto market.   Shiba Inu’s Shibarium Suffers Crash In Daily Transactions Shibariumscan data shows that daily transactions on Shiba Inu’s layer-2 network crashed from just over 4 million on August 23 to 1.09 million on August 24. The crash further extended on August 25 as the network recorded 624,140 transactions on the day, which represented a 2-month low for the layer-2 network.  Related Reading: Shiba Inu Exchange Supply Drops Toward New Lows, What This Means For Price Meanwhile, Shiba Inu’s Shibarium recorded 1.76 million transactions on August 26, which is still significantly below the average of 4 million daily transactions it has maintained for some time. This development is typically bearish for the SHIB price, as a decrease in the network’s daily transactions leads to fewer token burns.  The Shiba Inu team deploys some of the fees earned on Shibarium for SHIB burns, which helps reduce the token’s circulating supply and could serve as a catalyst for higher prices as demand increases. Notably, Shibburn data shows that the burn rate is down over 87% in the last seven days, with 8.8 million tokens burned during this period.  However, a positive is that the Shiba Inu burns increased over 500% in the last 24 hours, with 1 million tokens burned during this period. This trend might not be sustainable if the daily transactions on Shibarium continue to drop. Meanwhile, other major metrics on the layer-2 network are also on a downtrend at the moment. This includes the number of active and new accounts, which highlight the network’s growth over a period of time.  Bullish Case For The SHIB Price Amid the drop in these Shiba Inu’s Shibarium metrics, crypto analyst Javon Marks has made a bullish case for the SHIB price. In an X post, he stated that the structure of SHIB’s Inverse Head and Shoulders pattern remains intact and is currently in the final shoulder area of it. Based on this, he declared that the meme coin might be on the brink of a substantial surge.  Related Reading: Shiba Inu Head And Shoulders Pattern Signals 540% Upshoot To New All-Time Highs If the breakout occurs, Marks claimed that the target is over 540% away at $0.000081, which could pave the way into new all-time highs (ATHs) for Shiba Inu. The SHIB price’s current ATH is $0.00008845, which it reached in October 2021. Meanwhile, fundamentals like the Shib Alpha Layer may help contribute to any potential surge in the SHIB price.  At the time of writing, the Shiba Inu price is trading at around $0.00001253, up over 2% in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap.

Shiba Inu has been showing signs of preparing for a significant price move, and technical analysis is pointing to a bullish breakout on the macro timeframe. Although Shiba Inu is down by 2.8% in the past 24 hours, a chart pattern that has been forming over the past several months suggests that the token could be on the brink of a powerful rally.  According to crypto analyst Javon Marks, the structure of SHIB’s price action is displaying an inverse head and shoulders pattern, which shows the possibility of a massive 540% price surge. Inverse Head And Shoulders Signals Explosive Move The analysis, which was shared on the social media platform X, shows how Shiba Inu has been shaping an inverse head and shoulders structure on the 5-day candlestick chart. Marks noted that the token is still in the “final shoulder areas” of the formation, meaning it has yet to fully confirm the breakout.  Related Reading: Bybit Exchange Unveils Massive Shiba Inu Balances In The Trillions As Price Tanks Basically, this means that Shiba Inu is currently in the process of forming the right shoulder before confirming the breakout. The pattern has been forming for more than two years, as it goes as far back as the second half of 2022, where the troughs of the left shoulder formed between July and December 2022. The head of the pattern, which represents the deepest pullback in the structure, took form between September and November 2023 during the bear market low. Since that point, the chart has been unfolding into the right shoulder. If the pattern plays out as predicted, Shiba Inu could be ready for a run that stretches far beyond its current price range. This inverse head and shoulders bullish setup is one of the most recognized reversal patterns in technical analysis, as it often indicates the end of a prolonged downtrend and the beginning of a major rally. Price Target Points To 540% Upshoot Based on the inverse head and shoulders structure above, Javon Marks predicted a price target at $0.000081, which represents a 540% move from the current price of Shiba Inu. However, this is keeping in mind that the breakout has yet to occur, and the analyst’s prediction did not come with a timeline for this breakout. As such, this breakout move would require volume and possibly a bounce from a strong support level to validate the bullish pattern. Related Reading: Shiba Inu Exchange Supply Drops Toward New Lows, What This Means For Price If Shiba Inu were to surge to $0.000081 as predicted, this price range would place the token trading close to its all-time high of $0.00008616, which has stood for almost four years. Interestingly, Marks noted that this move might not end at $0.000081, and it could result in new all-time highs.  At the time of writing, however, SHIB remains far below that projected target, trading at $0.00001263. This reflects a 6.2% decline from its 24-hour high of $0.00001347. Featured image from Getty Images, chart from Tradingview.com

The crypto market moved quickly after Jerome Powell hinted that interest rate cuts may finally come. Many assets moved immediately, and the Shiba Inu price was among the top gainers. According to this post on X, more than just a price chart, this moment reminded many that SHIB’s strength lies in market timing and its loyal community support. Powell’s Hint Sparks Instant Shiba Inu Price Momentum When Powell suggested that long-awaited rate cuts may soon be possible, the market responded quickly. Investors waiting for a clear signal rushed to position themselves, and SHIB wasted no time showing its power. The coin’s price surged with a 12% green candle in a quick move that shows how possible rate cut hints from policymakers can send crypto prices soaring fast. Related Reading: Analyst Predicts What Will Happen When XRP Price Hits $4, $10, $100, And $1,000 It was not just a random jump in price but a reminder of how closely tied SHIB is to larger economic shifts. When the Federal Reserve shows signs of easing, money tends to flow into risk assets, and SHIB has proven it can move with conviction. The sharp rise showed that the price can move much more quickly when the proper signals appear and that the meme coin is more active and responsive than many expected. The move suggests global signals could directly influence the Shiba Inu price. In this case, just a few words from Jerome Powell were enough to spark a strong reaction as his comments spread across markets and caught the eye of traders everywhere. It shows that when there are hints of a possible US interest rate cut, SHIB reacts quickly and moves in to align with the market trend. The ShibArmy Behind Shiba Inu’s Price Strength The X post states that price action can be exciting, but its community truly makes SHIB stand out. While price swings often draw attention, Shiba Inu’s true strength lies in its community. The ShibArmy has shown steady support even during uncertain times, and this loyalty helps SHIB stay strong and resilient in the crypto market. Instead of waiting for the world to tell them when to move, the ShibArmy stays active and prepared. Related Reading: Trump’s Pro-Crypto PAC Gets $21 Million Bitcoin Donation From Billionaire Founders This strength is not new. From the beginning, Ryoshi’s vision for Shiba Inu was more than charts and numbers; it was about creating a project and a community that could endure and be ready when the world finally noticed. The latest reaction to Powell’s hint reflects that same vision, with holders not simply chasing prices but being committed to the bigger picture. The ShibArmy understands that charts can rise and fall, but true resilience comes from staying together and believing in the long-term story. Powell’s possible rate cuts may have lit the spark for the latest surge, but the community’s loyalty keeps the fire burning. As others wait on the sidelines for more signals, SHIB’s supporters repeatedly prove they are always ready for what comes next. Featured image from Dall.E, chart from TradingView.com

In a video published earlier this week titled “SHIBA INU — HOW HIGH WILL PRICE BE IN 2025?!! MY HONEST THOUGHTS!,” the crypto analyst behind the LuckSide Crypto channel argued that Shiba Inu’s upside for the remainder of 2025 depends almost entirely on whether retail investors finally return to crypto in size. “Retail has not shown up yet,” he said, adding that the share of people in crypto “remains very much unchanged from last market cycle,” which he put at “5 to 6% of the world.” In his view, without a fresh retail wave, Shiba Inu (SHIB) can rise but is unlikely to break its longer-term range; with a retail surge, he believes the token could “drop a zero” and set a new all-time high. LuckSide situated SHIB’s performance within a broader meme-asset rotation. He contended that the top tier of memes has been diluted as new entrants and brands pulled liquidity from incumbents: “When we look at Dogecoin, we’ve had Shiba Inu pull some of that market cap from Doge… Pepe has pulled some market cap from SHIB… and as each one of these has entered the space and done well… it’s just sucked… some of the life out of these assets.” He emphasized that this dynamic does not mean “SHIB is dead,” only that the ceiling has lowered until new participants arrive. Related Reading: Shiba Inu Takes Major Step With Community Governance Model — Details Macro headwinds dominated his account of the past 18 months. He summarized 2025 as a year of “tariffs, economic uncertainty, quantum computing concerns, [and] black swan events,” and described 2024’s late spring and summer as a period of “high interest rates” and “slowing down economy,” with overhangs such as “German government dumping” and “Mt. Gox concerns.” Against that backdrop, he argued, meme coins—“a small percentage of the total market”—typically require “a lively” market and “adoption taking place” to outperform. He framed the current meme-coin capitalization at “$69.88 billion versus the total market cap of crypto which is 4 trillion” to underline how dependent the niche is on incremental retail flows. How High Can Shiba Inu Still Go In 2025? On SHIB-specific fundamentals, LuckSide pointed to what he sees as constructive on-chain behavior: “We’ve seen whale accumulation except for like the last week or so,” and “huge supply removal from exchanges.” He also reiterated a long-standing call about price resilience during the drawdown: “Shiba Inu has not dropped off a zero. While many people said it would, I called… that Shiba Inu would never add back a zero.” Those signals, he said, have “set the table for basically a big Shiba Inu boom” if and when retail returns. His 2025 path splits into two scenarios. If retail continues to lag, he expects SHIB to remain capped within its broader trend, even if reflexive rallies occur: “Let’s say we get up here somewhere in September… that’s… kind of sucks in the grand scheme of things,” he said, arguing that such a move would still leave the token range-bound. Related Reading: Analyst Says Shiba Inu’s $0.000010 Support Could Trigger Major Bounce If retail adoption is “actually triggered and you see the masses flow into the market… which… is when the meme-coin percentage of market cap really tends to surge,” he believes SHIB could “drop a zero, moving past $0.0001 for the first time ever.”. In his words, “FOMO is a hell of a drug. Supply shock is a hell of a thing to witness in the market.” On timing, LuckSide sees a narrowing window in late 2025 into early 2026 for a renewed meme-coin phase. “Whether that’s here in 2025 still, whether that’s early 2026, I think our window is really closing to where the market is actually going to take off and you’re going to see this big meme-coin boom yet again,” he said. Until then, he counseled patience and focus on on-chain support: “We just have to… understand that we need fundamentals to stay strong, and eventually things are going to work themselves out.” The bottom line of his “honest” assessment is conditional rather than numeric. Absent a fresh retail cohort, SHIB’s upside in 2025 may be incremental. With a decisive retail return—evidenced by “people downloading exchange apps and actually pushing capital into the space”—he argues the token could finally shed a decimal and set new highs. As he put it, “Retail will not always be delayed in getting to the markets… and when it does… we have the potential for SHIB to hit some pretty insane highs.” At press time, SHIB traded at $0.00001212.
