Strong on-chain activity and whale transactions have led to a major Shiba Inu price surge with other altcoins such as PEPE, BONK, and FLOKI joining the party.
Dogecoin killer Shiba Inu SHIB $0.000008 24h volatility: 4.6% Market cap: $4.95 B Vol. 24h: $149.85 M is once again on investors’ radar with a staggering 43% gain over the past nine days. In the last 24 hours, the SHIB price is up by 14% currently trading at $0.00001927 with a market cap of $11.41 billion. Also, the daily trading volumes for SHIB have surged by 105% to more than $1.3 billion.
With Shiba Inu’s strong upside in a very short time, the entire meme coin sector is seeing strong gains today. However, the on-chain activity in SHIB is more profound in comparison to its meme coin competitors.
Crypto analytics platform Santiment noted that apart from the trading volumes, the SHIB circulation and the Shiba Inu whale transactions have also surged to a 10-week high.

If SHIB has to regain these levels, its bulls need to ensure a breakout above $0.000020 with strong trading volumes.

Another major reason that SHIB is outperforming other meme coins in the sector is the Shiba Inu burn rate. As per the Shibburn data, the SHIB urn rate has surged by a staggering 33818.39% in the last 24 hours. Thus, a total of $.18 trillion SHIB has moved out of circulation thereby putting an upside pressure on the Shiba Inu price.
