I noticed an interesting point in the derivatives market — the volume of Shiba Inu futures has increased by 666%. This clearly shows that speculators are waking up and getting ready for moves. Although the number sounds symbolic, the trend is real.

The problem is that SHIB itself is still stuck in a bearish channel. The price remains below key moving averages, and descending triangles are forming — a classic pattern for a continuation of the decline. Despite all this activity in futures, the coin is struggling.

But Bitcoin has already broken above $78K and is clearly building momentum. That’s the whole difference. While the big players are moving upward, meme tokens like SHIB remain in the background. The recovery of Shiba Inu seems to depend on whether Bitcoin can stabilize at new levels and redirect capital into riskier assets. Articles about situations like this usually confirm the logic — when the leader moves, others follow.
