On November 25, Shiba Inu is trading at $ 0.000040, down 53% from all-time high, and its market cap is $ 22.4 billion, according to CoinGecko.
At the end of last month, the altcoin set an all-time high above $ 0.000086. In October, the “meme” token has risen in price by more than 1000%.
The Shiba Inu token is called the “Dogecoin killer” by its creators. The project’s website says that its main task is to surpass Elon Musk‘s favorite cryptocurrency in terms of capitalization (Dogecoin’s capitalization as of November 25 is $ 29.3 billion).
The developers of Shiba Inu claim to have been inspired by the example of the Reddit community WallStreetBets, whose members were able to “accelerate” the value of shares of GameStop, AMC and a number of other companies.
