Shiba Inu (SHIB) Rise in Popularity
The recent listing follows the rise in popularity that resulted in the digital currency’s surge in value. Howbeit, such as the general crypto market, SHIB is undergoing a major phase of negative volatility.
As the Shiba Inu community awaits more big news to unfold in 2022, the SHIB holder count is quietly increasing.
On 20th January, WhaleStats, the platform that tracks the top 1000 Ethereum whales, reported that the number of Shiba Inu holders has reached a whopping 1,150,173, hitting new record highs.
WhaleStats tweeted, “New Record: SHIB reaches an astonishing 1,150,000+ holders. Current Holder Count: 1,150,173. The top 1000 ETH wallets are holding 51,383,815,397,632 SHIB ($1,461,726,189 USD).”
It’s worthy of note that all these listings and growth are likely to aid the continued growth of SHIB in the market since these will keep boosting its exposure across the regions.
Kraken has already listed the meme token, while SHIB enthusiasts are currently pushing tirelessly for its on the retail investment platform, Robinhood.
