Will this stir positive sentiment around Shiba Inu?
SHIB continued to face heat as its price chart remained red. According to CoinMarketCap, SHIB’s price was down by more than 4% in the last 24 hours. At press time, SHIB was trading at $0.000006559 with a market capitalization of over $3.8 billion. However, Shibarium’s achievement was not enough to change market sentiment around SHIB.
The memecoin’s social volume dipped sharply, which represents a decline in its popularity. Negative sentiment around SHIB increased over the last seven days, as evident from the dip in the token’s weighted sentiment.

Whales are losing interest in Shiba Inu
SHIB’s price action also affected its popularity among whales. As per Whalestats, SHIB was the most traded token among the top 100 ETH whales in the last 24 hours. However, it ranked 12th on the list of cryptos that those whales bought. Therefore, it seems that the big players in the crypto-space are actually selling their SHIB holdings.

Should investors expect a trend reversal?
CryptoQuant recently pointed out a bull signal that gave hope for better days ahead.
Shiba Inu’s Relative Strength Index (RSI) is in an oversold position, which can increase buying pressure in the coming days. SHIB’s net deposits on exchanges were low too, compared to the 7-day average.
Additionally, SHIB’s supply outside of exchanges flipped its supply on exchanges. This is a typical bull signal, suggesting buying pressure. However, SHIB’s MVRV Ratio was substantially down at press time, which can cause trouble.
