Shiba Inu (SHIB) has experienced significant sell pressure, falling approximately 62% since January and losing an additional 20% in the past month. These declines have raised concerns among holders, but analysts advise caution against selling at current levels. Digital Asset Research identifies a repeating 60-month market cycle affecting SHIB, citing a similar pattern from 2020 when the token fell nearly 99% before launching a strong rally in 2021.
The 2020 cycle saw SHIB peak in August, drop sharply over 120 days, and then rebound to reach $0.00008854. Present analysis suggests a comparable bottom may be forming now as SHIB approaches oversold conditions. Bitcoin dominance reaching multiyear highs is noted as a technical factor that often precedes capital rotation into altcoins like SHIB. Additionally, Ethereum‘s potential bottom formation adds to positive market signals heading into early 2026.
Digital Asset Research emphasizes that dismissing SHIB now could mean missing high-reward opportunities, especially given the 60-month rhythm repeating among meme coins. Analyst sentiment is growing around the idea that holding through volatility may be beneficial, with a specific recovery timeframe between February and March 2026.
Projections by Meme Whales estimate SHIB’s price could increase to a range of $0.001 to $0.01 by April 2026, indicating a possible gain between approximately 12,300% and 124,200% from its current value near $0.00000794. This forecast mirrors previous meme coin rallies under favorable macroeconomic conditions. Many analysts now adopt a bullish outlook, anticipating significant returns for patient holders if the expected February-March recovery occurs.
As the extended period of bearish trading for meme coins nears its end, current selling pressure on SHIB may be diminishing. Market trends and technical signals collectively suggest the token could soon shift direction following this recurring 360-degree cycle.
