πŸ• Shiba Inu Price Crashes: $6M Whale Sell-Off Sparks Panic πŸ“‰

πŸ“Š Massive Whale Sell-Off: The crypto market is reeling from a $6.05 million sell-off by a Shiba Inu ( $SHIB ) whale, who originally invested just $3,800 in 2020. Despite liquidating 250 billion SHIB, the whale still holds 2.15 trillion SHIB worth $52.18 million, raising questions about further selling.

πŸ“‰ Market Impact: SHIB’s price dropped below the 50 EMA, trading at $0.00002408. Key support levels at $0.00002283 and $0.00002045 are now critical; losing these could trigger a sharper correction. With the Fear and Greed Index at 69 (Fear), the market faces uncertainty as traders await signs of stabilization.

πŸ’‘ Why Now?: The sell-off coincides with a 25 bps Fed rate cut and a hawkish outlook, which triggered market-wide downtrends. Whale behavior often signals larger market trends, leaving traders concerned about a potential continuation of sell pressure.

πŸ“ˆ SHIB’s Resilience: Despite the panic, Shiba Inu’s strong community and role in DeFi and meme culture offer long-term potential. Analysts predict a rally to $0.00009 by 2025, supported by major developments and bullish sentiment.

πŸ“‰ Short-Term Outlook: Bollinger Bands indicate potential further dips, with SHIB possibly testing $0.0000238 or $0.0000228 as a local bottom.

πŸ”₯ Conclusion: While the whale profit of $109 million highlights SHIB’s potential, its price faces near-term turbulence. However, if SHIB recovers, it could emerge stronger in the next market cycle. πŸ•πŸ“Š
