A Larger Bull Run For SHIB Imminent?
The prices of various crypto assets have skyrocketed tremendously after the U.S. election. Notably Bitcoin (BTC) and Solana (SOL) hit new all-time highs (ATH). However, altcoins like Shiba Inu have yet to register a new ATH in the ongoing bull run.
Amidst the current bullish set up, Shiba Inu marketing lead, Lucie, suggests that the market trend is similar to what investors observed in 2020 before the explosive rally in 2021. With top exchanges listing it on their platforms amid surging demand, SHIB had achieved new heights. Also, Shiba Inu saw its biggest burn in May 2021 when Vitalik Buterin transferred over 410 trillion SHIB to the official dead wallet. It ultimately reached to an ATH of $0.00008616 in October 2021.
She has described 2025 as the ‘year of the super cycle,’ which could potentially result in a larger bull run, similar to 2021.
