'Dogecoin Killer' Shiba Inu Surges 6% Leaving Pepe Coin, DOGE Trailing: Analyst Foresees 'Sustained Long-Term Growth'

Self-proclaimed ‘Dogecoin DOGE/USD killer', Shiba Inu SHIB/USD, rose by 6% over the past day. This gain notably outshined its meme cryptocurrency rivals, including Dogecoin and Pepe PEPE/USD.

What Happened: Cryptocurrency analyst AlanSantana shared insights on Shiba Inu’s trajectory, suggesting a potential pattern in its price movement. 

“It will be a standard correction… Just as it happened after the peak in August, Shiba Inu retraced for about 2 months. We have a lower high in December which can lead to another correction, maybe 3-9 weeks in duration."

The analyst added, " June – August = Bullish Wave. August – October = Bearish Wave. October – December = Bullish Wave. December – February = Bearish Wave. Then we are likely to experience sustained long-term growth but retraces, shakeouts, price swings and corrections will continue to show up."

Why It Matters: Shibarium, Shiba Inu’s Layer-2 scaling solution, has recently experienced a swell in transaction activity on its network, culminating in a colossal burning of 8.2 billion SHIB tokens last week. The official Shiba Inu burn tracker has reported a 61% surge in daily token burns.

The practice of token burning, however, sparks contentious discussions within the Shiba Inu community on social platforms. 

Price Action: At the time of writing, SHIB was trading at $0.0000099, up 8% in the last 24 hours according to Benzinga Pro.
