News Flash 2026-01-05 14:31

Shiba Inu has seen a significant rise, gaining 19.9% over the past week as the meme coin market experiences a robust rally. According to Santiment, the total valuation of meme coins increased by approximately 23%, with trading volumes soaring nearly 300% from $2.17 billion to $8.7 billion. This surge indicates a renewed speculative interest in higher-risk assets. Despite being outpaced by Dogecoin and Pepe, which gained around 20% and 65% respectively, Shiba Inu has shown strong performance since the start of 2026. The token has climbed steadily from its opening price of $0.000006904, achieving a year-to-date gain of about 32%. Currently, SHIB is trading at approximately $0.000008766, up 5.14% in the last 24 hours and 17.31% over the past week. Additionally, Santiment reports a high concentration of Shiba Inu's supply among its largest holders, with the top 10 wallets controlling nearly 63% of the total supply. The official burn wallet alone holds about 41% of the supply, valued at approximately $3.3 billion.
