The most famous meme coin after Dogecoin, Shiba Inu Coin is only the second meme coin, after DOGE, to be among the top 15 cryptocurrencies. Marketed as a Dogecoin killer, Shiba Inu (SHIB) was created by an anonymous cryptocurrency developer in August 2020. SHIB has continued to grow in these 2 years, eliciting positive responses from industry giants such as Elon Musk and Vitalik Buterin.

Big thanks to the Shiba Inu community, whose cryptocurrency made these fellowships possible!

Since its launch, the altcoin has maintained a rivalry with DOGE, even though the latter continues to grab a larger share of the market. 

The burgeoning cryptocurrency market proved to be pleasant for SHIB also. The Shiba Inu community’s demand to get the coin listed on Robinhood Markets Inc. had it hitting an ATH of $0.00008845 in late-October 2021. 

The second quarter of 2022 proved to be a bloodbath, however, with SHIB suffering. At press time, it was valued at 0.00001198. 

Why these projections matter 

As is evident, a sense of community is crucial to the growth of SHIB. Whether it is their demand to get it listed on Robinhood or asking McDonald’s to accept it as a mode of payment, the community has always rallied around the growth of SHIB.

It has also become a home to a huge community of NFT artists who focus on the Shiba Inu breed of dogs in their artworks. 

“Rather than simply dismissing the hype outright, it’s important to realize that what we’re seeing is the mass movement of traders new to crypto moving into the space,” said Ben Caselin, Head of Research and Strategy at AAX. He added, “SHIB coin is a meme coin and embraces that.”

As it runs on an Ethereum platform, it currently employs the proof-of-work (PoW) consensus mechanism and will transition to the proof-of-stake (PoS) consensus mechanism. The upcoming Ethereum 2.0 transition will also certainly impact the growth of the currency. 

In this article, we will give an overview of the key performance indicators of SHIB such as price and market cap. We will then share with you what most popular crypto-analysts have to say about the future of this meme coin. This information will be complemented by data charts for a better understanding of the trajectory of SHIB so far and later. 

Shiba Inu’s Price, Market Cap and everything in between

During the crypto-bloom of 2021, SHIB’s price continued to soar and hit 0.00003503 in mid-May. Its price further rose by over 34% when it got listed on the crypto-exchange Coinbase in September 2021. 

When the Shiba Inu community clamoured to get the cryptocurrency listed on Robinhood Markets Inc., its price soared to an ATH of $0.00008845 in late October 2021. The altcoin, however, was not listed on the exchange before April 2022. At that point of time, it even dislodged Dogecoin to become the most-valued meme coin by market capitalization. The surge also led to its mass adoption by many cryptocurrency enthusiasts. 

As the cryptocurrency market crashed during Q2 of 2022, SHIB’s market price also continued to fall. From its April 2022 price of 0.000026, it fell to a little below $0.000008 by mid-June 2022. Since then, it has slowly risen, trading at 0.00001249 at press time.

The market capitalization of SHIB broadly reflected its price throughout the course of its history. During the crypto-run of 2021, its market cap peaked at $41 billion by the end of October 2021. At no point of time in 2021 was SHIB’s market cap below $16.5 billion. 

During the Q2 2022 crash, its market cap fell even below $4.5 billion in mid-June. Currently, its market cap is a little above $6.5 billion, making it the 15th largest cryptocurrency.

Along with DOGE, SHIB has been responsible for a flood of meme-coins in the cryptocurrency market such as Bit Shiba, King Shiba and Baby Doge. 

Shiba Inu Coin’s 2025 Predictions 

Before reading further, we must understand that market predictions of different analysts widely vary. A good number of times, these predictions will prove to be wrong as analysts cannot always foresee events such as political or environmental crises. It is wise that an investor conducts their own research before investing in a cryptocurrency, especially in something as volatile as SHIB. 

For instance, a Changelly blogpost claimed that after studying SHIB prices and market fluctuations, experts predict that SHIB could go as high as $0.00005048 and as low as $0.00004183. Its potential ROI for the said year is predicted to be 322%, with its average price remaining $0.00004335.

Telegaon concurred, finding that according to some crypto-experts, Shiba Inu Coin’s price can hit a new ATH in 2025. On the contrary, even though they expect enough tokens being burnt this year, they are not so hopeful about its price rise in 2022. They predict the maximum and minimum prices of SHIB to be $0.0001928 and $0.00009839, respectively. Its average price was predicted to be around $0.0001152. 

Shiba Inu Coin’s 2030 Predictions 

The aforementioned Changelly blogpost also mentioned that in 2030, SHIB will be traded at an average price of $0.00030921. Its maximum and minimum prices will be $0.00035649 and $0.00029857, respectively. The potential ROI for SHIB in 2030 is predicted to be 2,878%. 

Now, there’s good reason to believe why SHIB’s price might hike on the charts. For instance, according to many, if users burn enough tokens, a cryptocurrency’s acceptance is bound to increase. That being said, the meme coin must cultivate a host of different use cases too. 

And, not everyone agrees with whatever utility meme-coins like DOGE and SHIB might have either. Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse, for instance, believes that this asset class isn’t good for the market at large. In fact, it has often been speculated that these assets are part of a bubble.

Back in April, Finder surveyed a panel of 26 experts who predicted a rather gloomy picture for the future of Shiba Inu coin. They predicted that the average price of SHIB in 2030 will be as low as $0.000000325. 

Speaking for a majority of the panelists, Dimitrios Salampasis claimed,

“I am of the opinion that all these joke-type coins will disappear and leave space for actual innovation and crypto-assets that can serve proper use cases.”

Conclusion 

Shiba Inu Coin has continued to grow, hand in hand with the token burns. However, as its supply decreases and demand increases, its price should rise. Ideally. In fact, many investors have become millionaires by investing in this meme coin. 

This July, Shiba Inu developer Shytoshi Kusama wrote in a blogpost that progress on Shibarium, the platform’s Layer 2 protocol, is on track. The update will allow users to move assets with minor gas fees, empowering micro transactions over Shiba Inu-based dApps. SHI, a stable coin, is also expected to be released this year. A new token, TREAT, is also upcoming. It will be used as a reward token on Shiba Inu-based metaverse and games. 

As we can see, there is a lot of anticipation associated with the innovations brought forward by Shiba Inu Coin. Even so, there is a lot of uncertainty regarding its future. Investors should therefore conduct their own research before investing in the currency. Worth pointing out, however, that there is a lot of greed going around right now, with the F&G index flashing a reading of 65 at press time.
