Shiba Inu’s Volume Explosion: Leading Meme Coin Barrels Ahead In This Metric

Shiba Inu has recorded a notable surge in spot trading activity on several exchanges over the last seven days. This provides a bullish outlook for the second-largest meme coin by market cap, which has been one of the underperformers in this market cycle. Shiba Inu Sees Surge In Spot Trading ActivityCoinGlass data show a 154% surge in Shiba Inu USD spot trading volume on Kraken over the last seven days. There has also been a significant surge on other major exchanges, such as Binance, Bybit, OKX, and Gemini, during the same period. This indicates that spot buyers may be stepping in to defend the SHIB price at a critical support amid the broader crypto market decline. Notably, Shiba Inu is one of the altcoins that are in the green over the last week, suggesting that the bulls may be in control at the moment. CoinMarketCap data shows that the second-largest meme coin by market cap is up almost 7% during this period despite Bitcoin’s choppy price action. Meanwhile, further data from CoinGlass also shows that most leverage traders are currently betting on an increase in the Shiba Inu price, with the long/short ratio currently above 1. However, it is worth noting that derivatives volume is down by over 10% and open interest is down by almost 4%, which presents a bearish outlook for the meme coin. Another positive for Shiba Inu, besides the surge in spot trading volume, is that the Fed is likely to cut interest rates again at this week’s FOMC meeting. This could inject more liquidity into the crypto market, with altcoins like SHIB benefiting from it. Meanwhile, Bitcoin is currently looking to hold above the psychological $90,000 level, which could pave the way for higher prices for SHIB given their positive correlation.  Community Gives Update On SHIB’s ProgressIn an X post, Shiba Inu community member Shibizens gave an update on SHIB’s progress over the last few days. The community member noted that over 45 billion SHIB have been moved off exchanges, indicating that holders are accumulating. Shibizens also alluded to a $35 million whale transfer into a private wallet, suggesting that SHIB whales are also bullish. Furthermore, Coinbase is set to launch Shiba Inu futures on December 12 for institutional and retail investors, which could boost the meme coin’s adoption. Meanwhile, NYSE Arca has filed the 19b-4 for T. Rowe’s Shiba Inu ETF, bringing the ETF one step closer to launch. Shibuzens also highlighted upgrades on the Shibarium network, which could provide a major boost for SHIB. This includes the RPC upgrade, while a full privacy upgrade has been confirmed using encrypted tech. There are plans to roll this out by next year. At the time of writing, the Shiba Inu price is trading at around $0.000008498, up in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap.Weiter zum vollständigen Artikel bei NewsBTC Weiter zum vollständigen Artikel bei NewsBTC
