SHIB Price Dips by 6%
The dog-inspired meme coin dropped in value earlier today by 6%, plummeting in a single red candle within an hour. After an almost 20% price jump, the 20 percent gain that had begun a few days earlier abruptly ended. The latter is probably due to the cryptocurrency market’s overall resurgence when the leading cryptocurrency, Bitcoin, hit the $22,000 mark.
