Shiba Inu price sits at $0.00001237 with a $7.27B market cap after a 3.8% weekly decline, per CoinGecko.
On-chain Alpha metric signals a possible 125% Shiba Inu surge, attracting traders eyeing memecoin upside.

Shibburn reports 69,679 SHIB burnt in 24 hours, a 95% drop, adding pressure to Shiba Inu’s supply dynamics.

Shiba Inu is back in focus after data suggested the token could be in an extended accumulation phase. Analysts are pointing to price structures that often precede sharp rallies. Despite that, investor caution remains, with many holders still sitting on losses. 

Price updates show a steady decline over the past week, leaving traders torn between fear and potential upside. For many, the debate now centers on whether SHIB can finally reclaim momentum in 2025.

Shiba Inu Price in Accumulation as Metrics Signal Upside

Market watcher Joao Wedson noted that Shiba Inu’s on-chain indicators are showing early signs of recovery. He pointed to Realized Cap Impulse, a measure that tracks inflows of speculative capital. While still negative, it is close to flipping, which could fuel demand. 

Shiba Inu (SHIB) was a famous memecoin in 2021—but could it grab attention again in 2025?

On-chain data shows it’s in an accumulation phase. Metrics like Realized Cap Impulse indicate it may soon turn positive, attracting speculative capital and pushing its price up.

According to Wedson, the Alpha metric, which rarely crossed in the past, now acts as a magnet for price direction.

That same metric is projecting a possible 125% rally if trends hold. Investors, however, remain cautious as Net Unrealized Profit and Loss (NUPL) data shows many wallets deep in red. 

Losses often reduce buying confidence, and hesitation is visible in the trading volume. Still, some traders argue that when memecoins surge, they tend to do so quickly.

Per CoinGecko data, SHIB trades at $0.00001237 with a market cap of $7.27 billion. 

Volume in the past 24 hours reached $168.3 million, showing active participation despite the broader decline. Over the past week, the token dropped 3.8%, underscoring the volatility that continues to define this market.

Analysts Eye $0.000081 Target From Price Structures

Analyst Javon Marks shared that SHIB is completing an inverse head and shoulders structure. This pattern, if confirmed, often signals bullish continuation. 

He calculated that the setup targets $0.000081, more than 540% above current prices. While ambitious, this projection aligns with past explosive runs in SHIB’s history.

Burn metrics, however, tell a mixed story. Shibburn reported only 69,679 SHIB burnt in 24 hours, a 95% drop compared to the prior day. Over the past week, 63.1 million tokens were removed, a decline of 37%. Lower burns reduce supply pressure and can limit short-term price lifts.

Despite weak burn numbers, optimism remains among traders betting on structural setups. Patterns like the one Marks identified are closely followed in crypto trading circles. They are often used to time entries when broader sentiment is still uncertain.

For now, Shiba Inu’s path seems tied to whether speculative capital returns to the memecoin market. Traders continue to monitor accumulation, burn rates, and price structures for confirmation of the next move.
