Shiba Inu Primed for 500% Explosion—Analyst Warns of Volatility Ahead

Memecoin mania isn’t dead—it’s just reloading. Shiba Inu (SHIB), the dog-themed crypto that Wall Street still won’t take seriously, could be gearing up for a parabolic move according to on-chain analysts.

Technical indicators suggest SHIB’s consolidation phase may break violently upward, with one trader pointing to a textbook Wyckoff accumulation pattern. ’The setup mirrors early 2021 before the 28,000% pump,’ claims the analyst, who’s clearly ignoring three cardinal rules of finance: past performance guarantees nothing, memecoins aren’t investments, and dogs can’t code.

Exchange wallets show whales accumulating SHIB below $0.00003, while retail traders pile into leveraged longs. A breakout above $0.000045 could trigger cascading liquidations—up or down. Either way, brokers win on the spreads.

Will SHIB actually 5x? In crypto, stranger things have happened—usually right before a 70% correction. Proceed with caution and remember: when ’to the moon’ tweets spike, exit liquidity is being manufactured.

Price Target Suggests Whopping Gains Ahead

Technical analyst Javon Marks reaffirms his earlier projection that Shiba Inu will most probably reach $0.000081 during the current cycle in the market. This goal is up 500% from the current price. Marks mentions SHIB’s bull run to $0.000033 in December 2024. Then, the price drops back to $0.000010, which according to the analyst, is “expected” and part of a healthy correction process.

The token settled above $0.00002 as of the close in 2024, something Marks considers as validation of his technical perspective. Present price levels at $0.00001290 now are what he terms a base for the anticipated higher move.

Technical Indications Suggest Hidden Bullish Divergence

As per market reports, the chart of SHIB shows a trend called hidden bullish divergence. This occurs when prices create higher lows but technical indicators such as RSI (Relative Strength Index) or MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence) give lower lows.

Marks infers this pattern is indicative of increasing buying pressure hidden beneath, contrary to apparent weakness in near-term momentum measures. The token remains above such key levels of support while also establishing higher price lows, adding to its technical strength. Buyers and sellers wait for a break from the sideways pattern of recent trading, something that may force prices upward when volume increases.

Meanwhile, latest data indicates growth in SHIB investors with over one year holding the same. The segment has consistently increased since mid-2022 and continued to grow through early 2025. Long-term holders grew during both price appreciation and depreciation, indicating steady accumulation during any market condition.

An expanded foundation of long-term holders normally tames selling pressures, assisting with price support as well as other important support areas. The size of short-term traders (lesser than a month’s holders) declined by 35%. Holders with intermediate terms have risen by 3%. This change demonstrates deceleration towards short investment programs.
