Shiba Inu Elliot Wave Count Falls Into Place, Here’s Where The Bullish Wave 4 Says The Price Is Headed

Crypto analyst Capt Toblerone recently provided insights into the Shiba Inu (SHIB) future trajectory using the Elliot Wave Theory. This suggested that the meme coin’s recent price correction was simply part of a bigger picture, with the analyst predicting the meme coin will hit a new all-time high (ATH) on its next leg up.  SHIB’s Price Is Headed Towards $0.00022 Capt Toblerone shared a Shiba Inu chart on his X (formerly Twitter) platform, which showed that Shiba Inu will rise to as high as $0.00022000 when Wave 3 of the five-way sequence takes place. The chart shows that Wave 2 of the sequence was currently taking place, with SHIB witnessing a corrective move.  Related Reading: Crypto Expert Says Market Has Begun A Macro Bullish Expansion – What This Means For Bitcoin And Altcoin Prices A rise to $0.00022000 would create a new all-time high (ATH) for the second-largest meme coin by market cap, with its current ATH at $0.00008845. Capt Toblerone’s analysis also showed that Shiba Inu could hit this new ATH by September this year. Interstingly, Shiba Inu’s price isn’t expected to peak there, as the chart also showed that the meme coin could hit another ATH when Wave 5, which is also a bullish move, takes place later on.  In the meantime, SHIB is facing corrective Wave 2, with the meme coin declining by over 7% in the last 24 hours. This follows its recent impressive price rally when it gained over 15% and even flipped Cardano to become the tenth-largest crypto token by market cap.  Although Shiba Inu has once again dropped out of the top 10 rankings with its recent price decline, the meme coin could easily break into it again if it eventually rises to $0.00022, as Capt Toblerone predicts. Shiba Inu undoubtedly has the bullish momentum to enjoy such price gain since this bull run is expected to be a meme supercycle.  Bitcoin Analyst Is Also Bullish On Shiba Inu Crypto analyst and early Bitcoin investor Jeremie Davinci recently reaffirmed his bullish sentiment toward Shiba Inu. He mentioned in an X post that the meme coin will break out and rise to as high as $0.00006000 when this downward trend is over. He further revealed that he will be looking to accumulate more SHIBas he sees an opportunity to make money.  Related Reading: Solana Remains Institutional Investors’ Favorite, YTD Flows Ramp Up To $29 Milion Crypto analyst Oscar Ramos also recently mentioned that SHIB is set to run to its current ATH and “beyond.” He added that the meme coin is ready to shed another zero and rise to $0.0001. The crypto analyst had previously highlighted this price level as his target for Shiba Inu in this bull run.  At the time of writing, Shiba Inu is trading at around $0.00002604, down in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap.  Featured image created with Dall.E, chart from Tradingview.com

This Bitcoin Metric Is “One Of Crypto’s Top Leading Indicators”: Santiment

The on-chain analytics firm Santiment has explained how this Bitcoin indicator has been one of the top leading indicators in the cryptocurrency market. Holdings Of Bitcoin Investors With At Least 10 BTC May Correlate To Price In a new post on X, Santiment has discussed about a metric that has historically been one of the top leading indicators in the sector. The metric in question is the total amount of supply held by the Bitcoin investors carrying at least 10 BTC in their wallets. Related Reading: How High Can Bitcoin Go Before A Top? Analyst Chimes In At the current exchange rate of the cryptocurrency, this cutoff is equivalent to around $683,000. As such, the investors holding sums of this scale or higher would be larger than the regular retail holders. Key groups such as sharks and whales fall in this range. These cohorts are generally considered to be influential beings, so their behavior can be worth keeping an eye on. While the 10+ BTC group wouldn’t solely include these large investors, the trend in its holdings would still at least in part encapsulate what these key holders would be doing. Now, here is a chart that shows the trend in the combined holdings of investors carrying balance in this range over the last few years: As displayed in the above graph, the Bitcoin supply held by investors belonging to this group has been going up recently, suggesting that accumulation has been occurring from the large holders. According to Santiment, there has historically been a pattern between the price and the behavior of the investors falling in this range. “When they accumulate, cryptocurrencies rise. When they dump, extended bear markets come,” explains the analytics firm. Instances of this trend are also visible in the chart. The supply held by this cohort started rising in October 2019 and kept up the rise throughout the bull run that followed in 2021. In February 2022, the behavior of these Bitcoin investors changed, however, as their combined holdings started heading down instead. This led into the bear market. The decline stopped after the FTX crash back in November 2022 and the holdings of these investors took to sideways movement in 2023. At the end of the year, another shift finally happened as the metric gained an uptrend. This accumulation likely kicked off because of the imminent spot exchange-traded fund (ETF) approval in January. These investors kept up this buying pressure post-approval as well, which all culminated into the rally towards the new all-time high (ATH). Related Reading: Is Mt. Gox A Worry For Bitcoin?
