Shiba Inu has long been trying its best to come out of the rut, the rock-bottom phase that the token has spent the majority of its year in. The token has failed to explore new highs this year, sinking into the depths of low price values as it continues to try hard to emerge stronger than ever. However, despite the pressure on SHIB, the token’s previous price rallies and momentum have often proven how cryptocurrency coins often have a knack for surprising the market when it least expects it. Can Shiba Inu truly do that?

Shiba Inu: The Quiet Case Expected To Turn Noisy Soon

2025 was a dramatic year for the entire cryptocurrency industry. With Bitcoin exploring new lows of $89K after hitting $120K, the markets are currently in sheepish mode, waiting for the right time to strike back. 2025 was a year that belonged holistically to the metals sector, with capital rotating towards metals in an intense manner. With the investor adopting a cautious stance due to Trump tariff ordeals and the Fed’s volatile economic stance, the domain of crypto suffered gravely. With Bitcoin failing to manage a new peak, the altcoins too have suffered in the process, with Shiba Inu busy exploring the lowest price points out of the lot.

SHIB has often surprised investors when they least expected it. Its iconic 2021 piece rally is still fresh in the minds of the investors. Moreover, per Lucie, the talks of SHIB ETF, coupled with the launch of SHI stablecoin, are still left, which could change the entire narrative around SHIB in a grand manner.

What’s Next for The Token?

According to Flitpay SHIB stats, the token may surge to sit at a new high price of $0.0006678 by the end of 2026.

“The price of SHIB experienced a significant decline of 77% throughout 2022 (after the end of the 2021 bull run). For instance, SHIB was trading at $0.000034 at the beginning of 2022 and then fell to roughly $0.000008 by the end of the year. Thus, the SHIB price can repeat a similar downward trend in 2026. However, SHIB can avoid this dump by introducing potential features, partnerships, and improvement plans. Considering all these factors, our Shiba Inu price prediction for 2026 in USD is $0.0006678 (maximum), $0.0000888 (minimum), and $0.00004467 (average).”
