Shiba Inu (SHIB) Price Outlook Hinges on Bitcoin Over Whales
beincrypto.com 20 August 2024 14:00, UTC Shiba Inu (SHIB) price under a downtrend could be looking at an escape from the downtrend but not in the traditional sense.
The mixed signals from the meme coin could affect how the price moves.
Shiba Inu Could See Some Growth
Shiba Inu’s price may not follow the path of its large wallet holders since their presence has been declining. At the beginning of the month, the total number of large addresses holding between $100,000 and $10 million noted a 27% drop.
The continued drawdown observed in Shiba Inu’s price is one of the biggest reasons why whale investors could have tapped out. As a result, their influence at the moment is slightly weaker than it is generally.

However, Bitcoin’s influence on the meme coin is rather strong at the moment. The correlation that SHIB shares with BTC is presently at 0.86 after recovering from negative at the beginning of August.
A strong correlation suggests that Shiba Inu will most likely follow the path established by Bitcoin. Since the latter is observing a gradual recovery, the meme coin also has a shot at noting an uptick.
SHIB Price Prediction: No Rise for the Meme Coin
Despite the bullishness of the correlation coefficient metric, Shiba Inu’s price may not rise. The reason behind this is the mixed signals from the aforementioned indicators. Thus, SHIB could remain consolidated under the resistance of $0.00001473.
If the sideways movement continues, the meme coin has a chance to breach the downtrend line. This could reinvigorate some of the missed confidence among SHIB holders, which would be the key to noting a recovery.
