The global crypto market cap has lost the $966 mark and has plunged by 0.67% over the last 24hrs. This downtrend is led by Bitcoin, which has also lost its crucial $20,000 zone and is presently trading around the $19,000 level. The altcoins have followed suit. <\/p>\n

Shiba Inu<\/a>, the meme currency, has been trading downward since Sept. 25 after the bulls failed to push the price above the $0.000012 resistance.<\/p>\n

At the time of writing, Shiba Inu is selling at $0.0000111, with a fall of 2.64% over the last 24hrs.<\/p>\n

Shiba Inu Continues Downward Movement<\/strong><\/h2>\n

It has also been a while since the Shiba Inu developers have been working to generate real-world utility per the network’s road map. On October 6, the network launched the Shiba Eternity game<\/a>, representing a new direction for real-world utility.<\/p>\n

The SHIB token is expected to be introduced into the game, which will support Shiba Inu’s supply burn.<\/p>\n

With the game launch, people anticipated that Shiba Inu’s price would surge; instead, the currency dropped further.<\/p>\n

Interestingly, however, as per WhaleStats, a whale wallet added nearly $19.39 million worth of Shiba Inu tokens after the Shiba Eternity game was launched. The 1.7 trillion SHIB tokens were added in a single transaction, and as per the reports, the whale activity was from the Huobi Crypto exchange.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, another reason for Shiba Inu’s price drop is the Binance Bridge hack incident which forced the BSC (Binance Smart Chain) network to suspend operations for a long time. It was initially understood that nearly $100 million to $110 million was taken out from the chain, but later it was revealed that around $7 million was frozen beforehand.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
