Holder Growth and Price Action

Shiba Inu surpassed 1.6 million holders, with Etherscan data showing 1,676,819 total SHIB holders. This expansion in the holder base reflects growing adoption across the network.

On price, SHIB was trading up 3.1% in the last 24 hours to $0.00000424 at the time of writing. The gains came after a recent pullback. The token fell to a low of $0.000004 on Monday following a three-day drop, then rebounded.

Broader market conditions may have helped sentiment. The June consumer price index fell 0.4%, bringing the year-on-year increase to 3.5%. That cooler-than-expected CPI print lowered expectations for a July Federal Reserve rate hike, which can ease pressure on risk assets including cryptocurrencies.
