What is SHIB The Metaverse all about?

“WAGMI Temple – named after the crypto rallying cry of “We’re All Going to Make It” and is a Zen-like realm with calming sensations, meditation, natural beauty, and spiritual connections to the world.”

On 12 January, SHIB also announced a partnership with Buggati alongside the release of a “collectible NFT” collection. Moreover, SHIB also remained pretty popular among the whales.

Positive impact on Shiba Inu?

These developments definitely affected SHIB positively, as its price rallied by nearly 14% in the last seven days. According to CoinMarketCap, at press time, SHIB was trading at $0.000009509 with a market capitalization of more than $5.2 billion.

SHIB’s on-chain metrics also looked optimistic and suggested a continued surge. For instance, the meme coin’s MVRV Ratio went up considerably over the past week, which was bullish. Its social volume also spiked during the last few days, reflecting its popularity in the crypto community.

CryptoQuant’s data revealed that SHIB’s net deposits on exchanges were low compared to the seven-day average, which was bullish as it indicated lower selling pressure. However, SHIB’s network growth decreased sharply on 13 January, which can bring trouble.
