The world’s second-largest meme coin Shiba Inu (SHIB) has once again triggered a storm in the crypto space with 23% gains in the last 24 hours and moving closer to $0.0000191. Interestingly, the SHIB Price surge comes along with a 240% surge in the daily trading volumes, above $1.36 billion, reminiscent of the 2021 mega bull run.
Shiba Inu FOMO Kicks In Again
Crypto analytics platform Santiment reported that the Shiba Inu has experienced a major surge of 43% in the last nine days amid the heightened on-chain activity. Key metrics behind this rally include the strong volume spurt, strong SHIB circulation, and the SHIB whale transactions that have surged to 10-week highs. Besides, with the increase in the SHIB social dominance, there’s a strong FOMO (fear of missing out) kicking-in among the traders.
Furthermore, the Santiment data suggested that the sharp price rise could lead to the potential for a local top. As of press time the Shiba Inu price is trading at $0.00001901 with a market cap of $11.3 billion making it the 13th largest cryptocurrency in the market. For the SHIB Price to hit the February high of $0.000043, the bulls need a breakout above $0.000020 with strong trading volumes.
Derivatives data for the world’s second-largest meme coin also shows strength with the open interest surging by 65% all the way past $60 million. Further, the Coinglass data shows that the 24-hour Shiba Inu liquidations have surged to $2.23 million, of which, $1.29 million are short liquidations. Also, the chart below shows a strong surge in the funding rate, showing bullish sentiment among SHIB futures traders.
SHIB Price Rally to Continue?
As said, if the bulls manage a SHIB Price breakout above $0.20, there’s potential for another 100% rally immediately thereafter in a few weeks. However, investors are curious about whether the meme coin can replicate a 2021 bull run, which surged by 45000% between January and May.
There have been calls for the Shiba Inu rally to $1, however, this would need an exponential volume spurt. Additionally, despite the burn effort, there are trillions of SHIB still in circulation which would make it difficult for such a massive rally.
On the other hand, the SHIB ecosystem has continued to make progress on the SHI stablecoin launch. Furthermore, the total value locked (TVL) on Layer 2 network Shibarium has surged to a new high of $3.64 million.
