On August 14, the token was up 50% when it peaked at $0.0000018. The recent rally helped push SHIB into the 12th largest digital asset slot by market cap.

Developments for Dogecoin and Shiba Inu

Accordingly, a rally in meme coins typically heralds altcoin season. Additionally, backers have identified the market’s risk-sensitive sentiment for the two meme coins in the current cycle.
