Shiba Inu’s developers drop the mic with a blunt truth—no amount of hype replaces actual utility. While meme coins keep begging for attention like Wall Street interns at happy hour, SHIB’s team doubles down on development over desperation.
Key moves: Scrappy upgrades, ecosystem expansion, and a refusal to ‘pander for pumps.’ Will it work? Maybe. But at least they’re not printing ‘to the moon’ t-shirts… yet.
Closing thought: In a market where ‘community’ often means ‘bagholders,’ Shiba Inu’s grind-for-growth stance is either refreshingly honest or hopelessly naive. Place your bets.

However, Lucie insisted that instead of focusing on such aspects of the market, builders can continue growing and improving. Notably, the
shiba inu ecosystem team has continuously prioritized this growth culture, introducing projects such as Shibarium and the ones currently in development like The SHIB Metaverse.
Lucie noted that growth, improvement, and developments such as these are enough to attract investors who will hold and value the token.

Interestingly, this appears to be the case, as IntoTheBlock data indicates that whales have amassed 19.47 trillion SHIB this year, now holding 585.16 trillion tokens, despite the price struggles.

Within this period, lower investors holding between 0.1% and 1% of the circulating supply have distributed 10.61 trillion tokens, with their balance now sitting at 147.38 trillion, demonstrating their lack of conviction. Meanwhile,
Shiba Inu has added 70,000 addresses this year, as total addresses with balances grow to 1.4 million.
This indicates that investors with conviction have continued to enter the market, looking to capitalize on the ongoing consolidation to procure the token at lower prices before the next upsurge. Lucie has suggested that Shiba Inu could reach $0.01 someday, but she noted that this would not happen soon.
