SHIB may have a significant breakout, here’s what to watch.

Shiba Inu (SHIB) has been struggling to maintain the level of liquidity it once had. In recent weeks, the coin’s volatility has been minimal, leaving many investors questioning its future direction.

Despite the apparent lack of activity, various indicators suggest the possibility of a significant price movement in the near future. As the path ahead for SHIB seems somewhat limited, it raises the question of where the coin may head next and what potential opportunities or obstacles lie ahead.

Shiba Inu (SHIB) Liquidity Woes

During the peak of the 2021 bull market, Shiba Inu (SHIB) emerged as a prominent player, leading price rallies that garnered significant attention. As a result, ShibaSwap, the decentralized exchange associated with SHIB, experienced a surge in Total Value Locked (TVL), reaching an impressive $1.75 billion.

However, the previously soaring TVL has taken a massive hit, plummeting to just $25.16 million, according to DefiLlama. At first glance, this dramatic decline in TVL may raise concerns about a potential liquidity crisis. Yet, a closer examination suggests that this situation may be temporary rather than a long-term predicament.

Recent data indicates a notable increase in SHIB purchases across various time intervals, and a closer look at wallet data reveals a mixed picture, with some ranges displaying an increase in holdings while others demonstrate a decrease.

SHIB Investors Show Confidence in Long-Term Potential

Upon analyzing on-chain data, Santiment’s chart reveals a notable pattern among SHIB token holders. Specifically, investors with SHIB holdings ranging from 1 to 1,000,000 tokens have demonstrated a consistent increase in their balances. This upward trend suggests that a considerable segment of the retail cohort holds a certain degree of belief in the long-term performance of this meme-inspired cryptocurrency.

Network usage data also highlights a decline in daily transactions, dropping from an average of 7,000 to approximately 3,500. Nonetheless, this is not necessarily indicative of an impending emergency. Instead, this could be part of a larger phase of stabilization for the token, as holders wait for a price rebound.

7/10 Network usage data is also worth noting – daily transactions have halved from an average of 7k to 3.5k. This decrease could signal a reduced interest in #SHIB, adding weight to the liquidity crisis theory.

Given the current state of a stagnant price and reduced volatility, the likelihood of SHIB preparing for a significant price shift appears high. This prospect has garnered the attention of investors who are closely monitoring the market for any forthcoming developments.
