Shiba Inu’s price increased by more than 1.5% in the last 24 hours.
Most metrics and market indicators were bullish on the memecoin.

Shiba Inu [SHIB], the world’s second-largest memecoin, witnessed a major setback last week as its price dropped to $0.000013. However, it later gained upward momentum but couldn’t sustain that trend for long.

Meanwhile, whales made a few interesting moves, which could indicate SHIB’s future course.

Shiba Inu’s rollercoaster ride

CoinMarketCap’s data revealed that after reaching last week’s lowest, SHIB turned bullish and reached the weakest highest of $0.0000174. In the last 24 hours, SHIB’s price increased by more than 1.5%.

At the time of writing, SHIB was trading at $0.00001677 with a market capitalization of over 49.88 billion, making it the 13th largest crypto.

Santiment recently posted a tweet revealing how whales behaved while the memecoin’s price remained volatile. As per the tweet, Shiba Inu whales were moving tokens out of exchange.

This clearly meant that they were accumulating SHIB as they were confident in the memecoin.

AMBCrypto then checked Santiment’s data to find out whether buying pressure was overall high in the market. As per our analysis, SHIB’s Supply on Exchanges dropped sharply.

While that happened, its supply outside of exchanges increased, hinting at a rise in buying pressure.

Its Exchange Outflow also spiked, further establishing the fact that investors were buying.

The supply held by the top non-exchange addresses also increased last week, indicating non-exchange whales’ intention to accumulate Shiba Inu.

Will buying pressure be enough to begin a rally?

Apart from the rise in buying pressure, the memecoin’s derivatives metrics also looked pretty bullish. AMBCrypto’s look at Coinglass’ data revealed SHIB’s Long/Short Ratio increased.

This means that there were more long positions in the market than short positions, suggesting that bullish sentiment around SHIB was high.
