Shiba Inu (SHIB) has been garnering attention in recent weeks, with
its price showing a good recovery after reaching a yearly low in
June. This coincides with the excitement around the upcoming launch
of Shibarium, a layer-2 blockchain network for the second-largest
meme token. It appears that the forthcoming Shibarium launch has
propelled SHIB to a significant milestone, as the number of
addresses holding the token has hit a new all-time record.
Shiba Inu Sets New All-Time High In Addresses Data from
IntoTheBlock reveals that the number of SHIB addresses at a given
time has reached a new peak of 3.51 million. The previous all-time
high was set in May 2022, when the number of addresses stood at
3.23 million. The number of addresses holding the SHIB token has
been steadily rising in the past few months, but this rate of
adoption notably surged in July. This is reflected in last week’s
figure, as the number of addresses holding the token spiked by more
than 22%. Related Reading: Over $28 Million In SHIB Withdrawn From

of SHIB addresses suggests a growing interest in the meme token.
This can be attributed to a combination of various factors,
including the upcoming Shibarium launch, the token’s price
performance, and the recent resurgence of DOGE – the poster boy for
meme coins. The recent market activity of Shiba Inu whales further
amplifies the optimism surrounding the SHIB token. On Wednesday,
August 2, NewsBTC reported that the cryptocurrency’s large volume
transactions reached approximately 1.13 trillion SHIB. SHIB Price
Hovers Around Critical Level – Price Overview The price of the
Shiba Inu appears to be slowing down after displaying bullish
strength before the end of July. The token rallied nearly 12%
between July 28 and July 30 to break above the $0.000008 level.
However, this recent momentum appears to be waning, as the token’s
price has not made any notable action in the past few days. With a
0.9% price dip in the last 24 hours, the SHIB token continues to
trade within the $0.00000831 zone. SHIBUSDT trading within the

TradingView Investors should keep an eye on the meme coin in the
coming week, as a break out of this zone could see it visit the
$0.0000087 mark again. Moreover, with the Shibarium mainnet launch
roughly 10 days away, a bullish scenario may be on the cards.
