As recently reported by CNF, Shiba Inu’s decentralized exchange ShibaSwap has expanded into Ethereum. The exchange that uses BONE tokens for governance and fee payment, will now operate on both the Ethereum network and Shibarium layer two scaling solution.

Following the news of the network upgrade, Shiba Inu’s SHIB token has recorded an upsurge. At the time of writing, SHIB is trading at $0.00002271 after a 2.5% surge in the last 24 hours.

SHIB has in recent weeks impressed, garnering massive investor interest. The memecoin hopes to challenge Dogecoin (DOGE) which is the far more popular memecoin. At the time of writing, DOGE enjoys a market cap of a little over $19 billion while SHIB sits at $13.1 billion.

SHIB hopes to flip DOGE before the end of the year, based on its growing network and adoption, technological advancements, and increasing partnerships with market leaders. In an effort to realize this goal, Shiba Inu lead developer Shytoshi Kusama has unveiled $12 million in funding via TREAT token for Layer-3 blockchain and Shibarium developments.

In a recent prediction, popular crypto analyst Ali Martinez has shared a bullish prediction on SHIB. The analyst predicts a bullish breakout that ends with the memecoin hitting the $0.000072323 price target.  His forecast is backed by a comprehensive technical analysis.

Shiba Inu (SHIB) is flashing a buy signal with its RSI dipping to 29, indicating it’s potentially undervalued. Analysts see this as a “buy the dip” opportunity. Combining this oversold position with analyst Martinez’s bullish prediction paints a promising picture for SHIB’s future price. As the overall crypto market stabilizes, SHIB could attract renewed investor interest and surge in the coming days.
