The success of these Bitcoin ETFs has fueled speculation about similar products for other cryptocurrencies, with Shiba Inu (SHIB) being a prime candidate within its enthusiastic community.

While there are no current applications for a spot SHIB ETF has not, we can explore the potential impact of such a development. The inflows witnessed by spot Bitcoin ETFs provide a benchmark to assess how a theoretical SHIB ETF could influence Shiba Inu’s price.

Shiba Inu Community Rallies for Spot ETF

The Shiba Inu community has actively advocated for a SHIB ETF. In February 2024, a petition garnered over 5,000 signatures urging Grayscale Investments, a prominent digital currency asset manager, to consider filing for a spot SHIB ETF. This grassroots effort highlights the community’s belief that a SHIB ETF could significantly bolster the token’s value.

Potential Price Increase from Inflows

BitMEX Research recently shared data showing that spot Bitcoin ETFs have attracted a net inflow of $12.125 billion since their launch in January. Assuming a hypothetical SHIB ETF captures 20% of this inflow based on the meme coin’s popularity, Shiba Inu could experience a substantial price increase.

This translates to $2.425 billion in potential capital directed towards the Shiba Inu market. We can apply the Bank of America 1:10 multiplier effect to calculate the impact of this inflow on SHIB’s market cap. This multiplier effect suggests that ETF inflows could lead to a $24.25 billion surge in Shiba Inu’s market cap.

Market Cap and Price Projection

Shiba Inu’s current market capitalization sits at approximately $15.6 billion. With the additional $24.25 billion, the market cap would reach $39.85 billion. Considering Shiba Inu’s current circulating supply of approximately 582 trillion tokens, this market cap translates to a potential price of 0.00006838. SHIB is trading at $0.00002654, and achieving the target above translates to a 157.6% increase for the meme coin.

The Shiba Inu community is eager for a SHIB ETF, and this ETF could hold some advantages over others. Should a spot SHIB ETF experience sustained inflows comparable to those observed with Bitcoin ETFs, the impact on Shiba Inu’s price could be even more dramatic.

A Major Shift in the Crypto Industry

For years, the cryptocurrency community has dreamt of entering the traditional financial arena through exchange-traded funds (ETFs). Efforts by the Winklevoss twins and Grayscale to launch a spot Bitcoin ETF faced numerous hurdles from the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) as far back as 2013.

However, BlackRock’s entry into the scene last June spurred a wave of filings from established financial institutions, culminating in the historic approval of several spot BTC ETFs in January 2024.

With Bitcoin establishing its foothold in traditional finance, attention is now shifting towards other cryptocurrencies. While Ethereum and XRP have garnered recent interest, it was SHIB Magazine’s bold “Wen SHIB ETF” cover that truly sparked the imagination.

Although there was no dedicated article on the proposed product, the community’s response showed a strong desire to see a SHIH ETF soon. After all, SHIB boasts a robust decentralized ecosystem, steadily shedding its meme coin label through ambitious projects like Shibarium (a layer-2 network), SHIB Metaverse, and more.

The continued success of these initiatives could pave the way for Shiba Inu (SHIB) to be considered for investment vehicles like spot ETFs in the future.

Can Shiba Inu (SHIB) Get ETFs Approved?

While some industry commentators express skepticism, citing regulatory hurdles and the time it took for Bitcoin ETFs to see fruition, SHIB enjoys a unique advantage.

Unlike some other cryptocurrencies facing legal questions about their classification as securities, SHIB has never faced such allegations from the SEC, potentially placing it in a more favorable position.

Bitcoin ETFs, which seemed like a dream, have become a reality, and other cryptocurrencies like ETH and XRP are close, as Larry Fink, the CEO of BlackRock, recently commented on the possibility of XRP ETFs.

The possibility of a spot SHIB ETF, regardless of its current feasibility, could give SHIB the reputation of a reliable cryptocurrency that the community and developers are working toward.

The demand for broader crypto accessibility is expected to keep growing, and the question of “Wen SHIB ETF?” might not be as outlandish as it seems. Time will tell if SHIB follows in Bitcoin’s footsteps.
