Shiba Inu Adds Zero to Its Price Point as Key Altcoins Decline

Shiba Inu adds zero to its price as major altcoins suffer double-digit losses

Shiba Inu has added an additional zero to its price as it returns to levels last seen in early October 2021, from where it has risen by thousands of percent. Shiba Inu reached an all-time high of $0.000088 on October 28, 2021. After trading for a while near support at $0.000010, the bulls lost ground amid the latest price declines on the market. Shiba Inu fell to a low of $0.0000083 on June 12 and is currently pushing into support. The next stop could be near the $0.000007 mark if this support fails.

To resuscitate it for an uptrend, buyers might have to push the price above the barrier at $0.0000146, or the price might return to its current consolidation range.

Shiba Inu also faces buying pressure from whales, ranking among the top 10 most-purchased tokens among the 500 biggest ETH whales. At the time of publication, SHIB was trading down nearly 11% at $0.00000856, in line with recent crypto market declines. This has caused the average Shiba Inu balance and the value held by whales to drop. Presently, the top 500 ETH whales are “hodling” $544,698,614 worth of SHIB.

Amid widespread selling, Shiba Inu fell to 17th place in the cryptocurrency rankings by market capitalization, dropping the 16th spot it previously held to Avalanche.

As shared by Shiba Inu’s lead developer, Shytoshi Kusama, SHIB was featured in a radio program on one of the top-rated FM channels, “Urbana Play 104.3 FM,” based in Buenos Aires, Argentina.

Shytoshi Kusama also shared Welly’s tweet, stating that the final public stage of Welly NFTs has gone live, where the remaining NFTs should be hit.

Shedding light on the purpose of the Welly NFTs, Shiba Inu’s lead developer earlier stated that the NFTs were created to act as membership instruments that act as smart contracts for particular Welly locations. He says that was the sole reason for the low price of 0.12 ETH to begin with.
