Shiba Inu (SHIB): A Journey of Unprecedented Growth

The tale of Shiba Inu$0.000010 -2.05% (SHIB) is a testament to the extraordinary potential that cryptocurrency holds. Many of its initial investors saw immense profits from minimal investment, generating a buzz within the crypto community. While some were fortunate enough to jump on the SHIB bandwagon early, others found themselves just a tad too late.

The Stunning Rise of SHIB

Imagine making a monthly investment of $100 in SHIB starting from its launch in August 2020 until it reached its peak in October 2020. The total investment would only amount to $1500. However, the valuation of this portfolio would have shot up to an astonishing $279.83 million. This equates to a growth rate of 18,655,517%, or 18.65 million percent.

What Could Weekly Investments Have Yielded?

An even more extraordinary narrative unfolds when considering a weekly investment strategy. A $100 weekly investment in SHIB from August 2020 to October 2021 would total $6200. Yet, this seemingly modest investment would have ballooned to a staggering $1.16 billion.

Without a doubt, SHIB's performance from 2020 to 2021 was spectacular, surpassing stocks, commodities, and other cryptocurrencies.

Is the Shiba Inu (SHIB) Gold Rush Over?

Since reaching its peak in 2021, SHIB's price has been on a decline, dropping by over 89% from its all-time high of $0.00008616. Various external elements contributed to SHIB's phenomenal 2021 rally.

At the time, the crypto market was flourishing with investor sentiment. Other digital assets were also experiencing a surge. Notably, Bitcoin$42,260 -0.64% (BTC) reached an all-time high shortly after SHIB.

Fuel to the fire: The Role of Vitalik Buterin

Another significant contributor to SHIB's price was Ethereum$2,315 -2.42% (ETH) co-founder Vitalik Buterin's decision to burn almost half of SHIB's supply. Buterin initially received half of the SHIB tokens upon its launch. Yet, he chose to burn 90% of these tokens, donating the remainder to charitable causes. This action significantly drove up SHIB's price.

Thus, for SHIB to experience another bull run akin to 2021, a similar environment is necessary. The crypto market will need to enter a bull run and the SHIB team will need to decrease the project's supply.
