A leading Shiba Inu community figure has predicted that SHIB could reclaim its all-time high before the year ends. With just three months left, optimism is mounting among investors who expect a sharp rally. Historical performance, reduced exchange reserves, and bullish community sentiment have all fueled speculation of a breakout. YourPOP’s Bold Forecast Shiba Inu community member YourPOP told his 250,000 followers that SHIB is on track to set a new record. He urged supporters to bookmark his prediction, maintaining that the token will surpass its previous all-time high of $0.00008845 this year. That milestone was achieved on October 28, 2021, after SHIB surged more than 150 million percent from its launch price of $0.000000000056. Since then, the asset has struggled through prolonged bearish conditions, with its price often stuck near $0.00001. At the time of writing, SHIB is trading at around $0.00001242, down 1.17% in the last 24 hours. SHIB Price Source: CoinMarketCap For the token to retest its record, it would need to climb 603.49%. This rise would place its market capitalization at $52.14 billion, assuming the current circulating supply of 589.24 trillion tokens remains constant. Community confidence in the projection has grown after analysts, including “Anonymous” and Eunice Wong, suggested that SHIB could even reach $0.0001 in 2025. Their views align with the broader optimism that the ongoing bull cycle could lift meme coins to new heights. Exchange Reserves and Q4 Track Record SHIB exchange reserves have fallen to a two-year low of about 84 trillion tokens. The reduced reserves often ease selling pressure, as more investors shift to self-custody. This trend signals a stronger preference for holding, rather than offloading tokens into the market. Another factor strengthening community belief is SHIB’s historical performance in the final quarter of the year. Since its 2020 debut, the token has recorded only one negative Q4. That decline came in 2022, when SHIB dropped 28.94%. In contrast, the last three Q4 periods showed strong gains of 364% in 2021, 41% in 2023, and 20% in 2024. Shiba Inu Quaterly Returns (USD) This positive pattern has set expectations high for 2025. Already, two days into the new quarter, SHIB has gained 6.45%. Supporters argue that the historical trend and ongoing accumulation could sustain momentum. However, critics continue to highlight SHIB’s massive circulating supply as a barrier to significant price appreciation. They warn that while short-term rallies are possible, surpassing the 2021 peak may be difficult without a meaningful supply reduction. As the countdown to year-end continues, all eyes remain on whether SHIB can replicate its past success. YourPOP’s forecast has intensified debate, bringing renewed focus to Shiba Inu’s community-driven growth. Whether the token reaches a new ATH or faces resistance, the next three months could prove decisive for its trajectory.
