Shiba Inu (SHIB) is back in focus as it seems set up for a potential breakout. After weeks of volatility sweeping through the market, spurred by macroeconomic developments in the world at large, SHIB has been displaying strength.
The meme Cryptocurrency is benefiting from the resurgence in momentum in the market, and analysts say it may be getting set up for a strong bullish movement.
Shiba Inu is now priced at $0.00001478 at the time of publication, a 1.72% loss over the previous 24 hours. Weekly, however, the asset has risen by 7.51%, revealing a reversal in momentum.

With a current valuation in market cap size at $8.72 billion and 24-hour trade volume at $358.87 million, SHIB has a 0.22% market dominance. Although the figure shows the coin still has resistance issues, the overall snapshot has grown bullish.
Traders and investors are intently observing SHIB’s price movement in the wake of fresh enthusiasm in the market. Eyes are on whether it can climb out from the latest slumps and re-enter the wider crypto uptrend. Prominent technical chart formations have strengthened interest and speculation.
Crypto analyst Javon Marks pointed out that SHIB is forming a large Inverse Head & Shoulders (IH&S) pattern. Such a bullish pattern is widely seen as a reliable precursor to a breakout. Mark’s notes say SHIB is accumulating in its final “shoulder,” likely prompting a sharp upsurge.

“These prices can break out into a spectacular 431% rally towards $0.000081 on this chart pattern,” added Marks. As he believes, this chart pattern may well act as the catalyst triggering in motion a 5x price appreciation, considering the volume and sentiment setup will support the breakout.

The chart of SHIB OI-Weighted Funding Rate exhibits a neutral to slightly bullish bias from late April through May 2025. The price of SHIB was in the neighborhood of $0.000014 as the funding rates ranged mildly above and below zero. That indicated there was little strong conviction in the trader population at the time.

In mid-June, the funding rate fell into the red, suggesting the emergence of bearish sentiment. Traders preferred short positions, and the price of SHIB decreased modestly. That was indicative of cautious sentiment as the level of market uncertainty rose.
By July, sentiment had dramatically changed as the funding rate and SHIB price had surged considerably. The strong rise in positive funding rates is a long position wave and a return of bullish sentiment. Such a rally signifies growing investor confidence but may generate over-leveraging concerns.
