Shiba Inu Defies 8% Drop—Still on Track for Monthly Gains
Shiba Inu claws back from a brutal week—somehow still in the green for July.
Price whiplash? Just another Tuesday in crypto.
The meme coin’s 8% nosedive barely registers against its monthly rally. Traders shrug off short-term dips like expired Dogecoin hype.
Meanwhile, Wall Street hedge funds still can’t decide if crypto is ‘digital gold’ or a Ponzi scheme. Place your bets.

Bullish hints
SHIB's monthly price chart shows the token is likely to end July with an inverted hammer candle as it looks to bounce from year-to-date lows.
An inverted hammering appearing after downtrend or at market lows indicates that buyers attempted to push the price significantly higher during the period, but sellers ultimately overpowered buyers, pushing prices back down to NEAR the opening price.
However, the sheer presence of the long upper shadow indicates that buying interest is re-emerging at these low levels, hinting at potential bullish reversal higher.
