Shiba Inu price continues to go downward despite increased global adoption from leading brands and startups. Recently, the Shib community, via Change.org, asked Binance to commence burning SHIB tokens using a portion of the token trading fees. The move was aimed at the long-term success of the Shiba Inu token.

The price of SHIB dropped 6.1% during American trading hours on Thursday to trade at $0.00001626. Shib developers continue to build despite the dwindling price, with the number of transactions on the network hitting an all-time high today, per Shibarium Scan.

SHIB Price Analysis: Has to Fill This Gap Before Bulls Return

Shiba Inu price is in a downtrend, characterized by lower highs and lower lows. The asset recently broke out of a descending triangle, retesting the bottom support to confirm the breakout. 

There is little support between the current price and the zone of market imbalance around $0.0000115. The recent candles have shown selling pressure, confirming the bearish sentiment.

The Shiba Inu price forecast shows the asset is trending below the 50-day and 200-day exponential moving averages (EMA), confirming the downward trend. Furthermore, the 50 EMA just crossed below the 200 EMA, signaling a death cross. SHIB price action is expected to trend even lower in the coming days.

Key resistance levels to watch for include $0.00002362, $0.00002998, and $0.00003363, while $0.00001361 and $0.00000996 may provide further support for price breaks below the fair value gap (FVG).

Even though CoinGecko data shows a 25% increase in 24-hour trading volume, it is relatively low, suggesting a lack of buying interest at the current price levels.

The relative strength index (RSI) is at 40.94 and also crossed below its 14-day SMA, which confirms that the indicator may continue moving downward, signaling increasing bearish momentum. The Chaikin money flow (CMF) is at -0.02 and heading downward, indicating small but increasing selling pressure.
