Crypto exchange Changelly has predicted when the Shiba Inu price could delete three extra zeros and rally to as high as $0.01. Based on the prediction, the top meme coin is still over a decade away from achieving this milestone, even as it currently underperforms in this market cycle.  

When The Shiba Inu Price Could Hit $0.01

Changelly predicted in a blog post that the Shiba Inu price could reach $0.01 by September 2040. Specifically, they highlighted $0.0106 as the maximum price that SHIB could reach by then. Meanwhile, the crypto exchange projects that the meme coin could still reach $0.0139 by year-end 2040, highlighting that price level as the maximum for December 2040. 

The crypto exchange also expects the Shiba Inu price to record further upside from that level, predicting that the meme coin could reach a maximum price of $0.0177 by year-end 2050. This marks a gain of 160809.1% from the meme coin’s current price level. The SHIB burn is one of the mechanisms the SHIB community has adopted to achieve the $0.01 target for the meme coin. 

The Shiba Inu burn tracker explained that reducing the number of tokens in circulation could increase the Shiba Inu price over time. The platform added that the community’s goal is to raise the meme coin’s price to $0.01. According to the Shiba Inu burn tracker, SHIB’s circulating supply needs to be 224 trillion for it to get to this price target. 

Therefore, 61.98% of the meme coin’s circulating supply must be removed from circulation, representing 589.5 trillion tokens. SHIB currently has a circulating supply of 589.24 trillion, indicating there is still a long way to go before the meme coin reaches its 224 trillion target. However, the meme coin would also have to witness significant demand for these burns to have an impact on the Shiba Inu price. 

A Recovery Is On The Cards For SHIB

Crypto analyst Javon Marks stated that a more than 150% recovery move to $0.000032 is on the cards for the Shiba Inu price based on a bullish divergence that has formed for the meme coin. This comes as SHIB continues to struggle, with the meme coin one of the top altcoins with a year-to-date (YTD) loss. 

Crypto analyst SHIB Knight said that the first target for the Shiba Inu price as part of its recovery is $0.00001209, which is the former accumulation zone. The analyst noted that when the market turns positive, SHIB is often among the first to recover. He claimed that this is mainly because of the strength of the SHIB Army. 

At the time of writing, the Shiba Inu price is trading at around $0.00001065, down in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap.
