A rally of nearly 30% followed the token’s Coinbase listing, being considered as “The Coinbase Effect.” The hype surrounding the token’s launch among traders on Coinbase has driven the newly listed cryptocurrency’s price higher.
Further, the social media mentions of the Shiba-Inu-themed cryptocurrency have hit a peak in the past few hours. SHIB ranks in the top 10 for the highest mentions on crypto Twitter over the past hour, alongside Bitcoin, Ethereum and Dogecoin.
