Shiba Inu (SHIB) has been on an evident downtrend in the past several months, reflecting a broader cooling of enthusiasm among traders and investors.<\/p>\n

However, one popular analyst believes the meme coin has a chance to post a substantial price increase in the near future.<\/p>\n

What Needs to Happen?<\/h2>\n

SHIB saw a strong rebound over the weekend, climbing to $0.0000072, the highest point since late January. Its rise\u00a0coincided with a broader meme coin upswing\u00a0triggered<\/a> by news that X will soon allow users to\u00a0<\/span>trade stocks and cryptocurrencies directly from their timelines.<\/p>\n

SHIB\u2019s revival was short-lived, and it is currently worth around $0.000006596, representing a 3% decline over the past 24 hours. According to renowned analyst Ali Martinez, however, the asset may be poised for another jump.<\/p>\n

He noted<\/a> that SHIB has been pressing against the $0.0000067 resistance level. Should the token flip this area into support, Martinez believes it could open the door to a 50% rally to $0.0000099. Many X users who engaged with the post agreed with this potential scenario. Global Rashid, for instance, said<\/a>:<\/p>\n

\u201cSHIB sitting right at decision time. Reclaim $0.0000067 as support and momentum shifts fast towards $0.0000099. Lose it, and this stays a range. Structure > hype.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Some indicators point toward the possibility of a short-term rally. Shiba Inu\u2019s burn rate has soared by 70% on a daily scale, resulting in more than three million tokens sent to a null address. While the USD equivalent of the destroyed stash is negligible, sustained efforts in that field can support price appreciation (especially if demand doesn\u2019t decline).<\/p>\n

SHIB\u2019s exchange reserves are also worth observing. Recently, the number of coins stored on centralized platforms fell to a new five-year low, signaling that investors continue to shift toward self-custody, thereby reducing immediate selling pressure.<\/p>\n

The Doom Scenario?<\/h2>\n

Ali Martinez has been quite vocal about SHIB lately and, last week, outlined<\/a> a completely different prediction. At the time, the price of the meme coin dipped well below $0.00000667, and the analyst viewed this as a precursor to a severe 80% decline.<\/p>\n

Another element suggesting that a sustainable rally for the meme coin is far-fetched is the fading interest from market participants. SHIB has generated trading volume of just $167 million over the past 24 hours, a figure that pales in comparison to activity seen in other popular altcoins, including Dogecoin (DOGE), Ripple (XRP), Solana (SOL), Cardano (ADA), and many more.<\/p>\n

Shibarium\u2019s stalled progress is another worrying factor. Shiba Inu\u2019s layer-2 blockchain solution\u00a0was launched <\/a>in the summer of 2023 and is designed to foster ecosystem growth<\/span> by reducing transaction fees, improving speed, and enhancing scalability. At one point, daily transactions on the protocol were in the millions, but data show<\/a> that activity has dropped to zero over the last few weeks.<\/p>\n

Shibarium\u2019s downfall appears to have begun in September last year, when its security was breached<\/a>. Several reports claimed that the attack was carried out using a flash loan to purchase 4.6 million BONE tokens. LUCIE (the pseudonymous marketing strategist for Shibarium) refused to characterize the incident as a hack and assured investors that their funds were safe.<\/p>\n
