Shiba Inu Price: The waning bullish momentum in the Bitcoin price continues to bolster the sideways trend in altcoins, including SHIB. The second-largest meme cryptocurrency has been highly volatile for the past two weeks resonating between $0.00001 and $0.00000934 horizontal levels. The long-wick rejection candles on either side accentuate the increasing uncertainty among market participants. Here’s how this consolidation may influence the near-term future of Shiba Inu.

Why Shiba Inu Price Prolong Downtrend

Amid the renewed recovery in the crypto market, the Shiba Inu price rebounded from the local support of $0.00000934 on February 24th. The positive turnaround has surged the prices by 4% in the last three days to the current trade at $0.00000973.

However, the reversal is still backed by weak momentum, and the buyers would need a breakout above $0.00001 to escape the current consolidation. Having said that, the breakout may only surge the price by 5-7% and hit the long-coming resistance trendline.

This dynamic resistance is part of a falling wedge pattern that carries the current downtrend in Shiba Inu. Thus, until this channel pattern is intact, the popular memecoin will remain in a downtrend.

Moreover, A whale, identified as 0x30e, has offloaded 421.6 billion SHIB tokens worth $3.98 million, as reported by SpotOnChain. The transactions included a transfer of 311.6 billion SHIB to Binance and the sale of 110 billion SHIB for 1.01 million USDT on a DEX. This sale resulted in a staggering loss of $6.32 million, or a 61.4% decrease, after holding for 2.5 years. This move may promote the SHIB price and is likely to prolong its current downtrend.

Whale 0x30e allegedly sold 421.6B $SHIB ($3.98M) at ~$0.0₅9437 in the past 6 hours, including:
• deposited 311.6B $SHIB ($2.97M) to #Binance
• sold 110B $SHIB for 1.01M $USDT on DEX.

Truly selling now would cause the whale to lose $6.32M (-61.4%) after 2.5 years of holding!… pic.twitter.com/CGfN7CL42g

Conversely, the market participants bullish on this memecoin, may wait for a breakout above the overhead trendline to obtain a better entry opportunity.
