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.

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

A fresh wave of bullish optimism has swept across the meme coin community as technical analysts point to a potential explosive rally that could propel the PEPE price by more than 1,500%. This massive surge could see the meme coin breakout toward a new all-time high of $0.00012 by early 2026. PEPE Price Targets $0.00012 With Final Accumulation Zone An analyst from Wins, a cryptocurrency trading school, has projected on X social media a 1,500% move in the PEPE price, forecasting a potential rally toward $0.00012. According to the chart, this bullish target aligns with a projected increase in market capitalization from $2.89 billion to $48 billion. The analysis highlights a Fibonacci Extension setup with a 2.618 target positioned near the $0.00012 level. Related Reading: PEPE Price Prediction: Analyst Says Market Is Ready After Crash, Here’s The Target The chart analysis also reveals that PEPE is consolidating within a descending wedge pattern, suggesting a strong bullish reversal once a breakout occurs. Currently, the meme coin is trading around $0.0000068, corresponding with a forecasted surge in market cap to $3 billion. The analyst has identified the current price range, visualized by the green accumulation box, as the final buying opportunity before the next leg upward. The pattern mirrors PEPE’s previous accumulation and breakout phase from late 2023 to early 2024, where a similar descending wedge formed before a significant price surge. Fibonacci retracements and extensions on the chart suggest that once PEPE clears resistance near $0.000015 and sees its market cap increase to $6 billion, momentum could accelerate toward $0.000035 and eventually reach the final target at $0.00012. The analyst has set the timeline for PEPE to achieve this target around January 12, 2026. PEPE Historical Setup Signals Major Price Rally Sharing similar bullish sentiments for PEPE’s price outlook, crypto analyst Chandler wrote on X that “no one is ready for what’s coming for PEPE.” He shared a technical analysis projecting a massive rally for PEPE based on historical trends to support his bold statement. Related Reading: The Big PEPE Price Breakout: Falling Wedge Pattern Points To 64% Rally The comparative chart analysis overlays two distinct timeframes from September 2023 to February 2024 and September 2023 to October 2025. The chart shows repeating cyclical structures, marked by colored circles representing accumulation, breakout, correction, and consolidation phases. In 2023 – 2024, these patterns preceded a major upward move that took the PEPE price to a new all-time high, from $0.0000009 to $0.0000035, representing a staggering 288% increase. Chandler’s current projection suggests the meme coin is completing a similar sequence, with the blue-circled region around $0.00000728 marking a potential bottom before a powerful surge. The analyst’s forecast maps out a sharp rise to $0.000015 first, followed by a slight drop before an explosive rally above $0.00035, marking a staggering 4,708% gain from the bottom level.
