SHIB/DOGE price chart
SHIB/DOGE pair reached 0.00001638, a 100% gain after hitting bottom at 0.00000993, the lowest level on record. Shiba Inu’s massive recovery came into focus as SHIB holders anticipated a rally in the token with developmental updates from Shytoshi Kusama and the project’s development team.
Crypto Twitter anticipates that Shibarium will go live on February 14, fueling a bullish narrative among SHIB holders.
Dogecoin bot suspended for violating Twitter’s rules
Dogecoin, Shiba Inu’s competitor and the largest meme coin in the crypto ecosystem, looked pale compared to the Shiba Inu-themed cryptocurrency. Elon Musk, the billionaire CEO of Tesla and Twitter owner, suspended a Dogecoin tipping bot for violating the social media platform’s rules.
Musk’s move raised concerns in the community about Dogecoin’s utility and its adoption on Twitter once the platform rolled out crypto payments. The Shiba Inu community is awaiting the launch of Shibarium and SHIB's gains against Dogecoin in Q1 2023.
