Shiba Inu (SHIB) Metrics Reveal SHIB Is Seen as Long-Term Investment
The popular canine cryptocurrency Shiba Inu (SHIB) has amassed new holders continuously, even throughout the severe conditions of the crypto winter. The consistent growth in total wallet numbers for the popular Japanese guard dog-themed memecurrency doesn’t correlate with SHIB’s declining market price. On top of that, 83% of wallet addresses holding SHIB have been doing so for over six months.

Ethereum & BSC Whales Jump in to Get Their Shiba Inu
SHIB’s total token holder count on the Ethereum (ETH) network now stands at 1,265,128. Besides, the statistics provided by Etherscan show that the TOP 100 wallets holding SHIB sum up to a whopping 81.63% of the whole circulating supply. The metric indicates that the memecoin is among the top accumulated assets by the most powerful Ethereum Whales.
The gradual growth in total wallet numbers is also prominent on the Binance Smart Chain (BSC). According to Burn SHIB, the last 24 hours have seen 2,144 new registered wallets, totaling the number of SHIB holders at a colossal 2,276,756.

SHIB Price Serves as an Opportunity for Coinbase Users
The super popular memecurrency has dropped 3% in the last 24 hours, causing a mixed reaction from Crypto Twitter. At press time, the 15th ranked memecoin is changing hands at $0.00000864, according to CoinGecko. In two weeks, SHIB dropped 6.9% of its market value, serving as a buying opportunity for some investors.
On that note, Coinbase users have been accumulating the popular canine coin – the trading sentiment on Coinbase indicates that 98% of crypto enthusiasts on the top American crypto platform are buying. This could be because many people are expecting to see Shibarium soon. In contrast, only 2% of SHIB holders have decided to get rid of their stash at the current market price.
