The Shiba Inu (SHIB) has experienced a significant price drop, leaving a significant number of investors stranded.
With SHIB’s recent downward trend in value, a staggering 1 million addresses are now in the red, facing losses in their investment.
In the context of cryptocurrency trading, the term βred zoneβ often refers to a situation where a digital currency experiences a significant decline or negative price movement. This is usually associated with bearish market conditions or a downtrend.
This turn of events has sparked concern and curiosity among both cryptocurrency enthusiasts and market watchers as they analyze the factors behind the price decline and its implications for the future of the Shiba Inu and its large investor base.

This data sheds light on the overall financial health of SHIB investors, highlighting the prevailing concerns that a significant portion of the community is facing in the face of recent price fluctuations.

Selling pressure as shibarium launch schedule faces uncertainty
Meanwhile, recent data from Etherscan shows significant development of the Shiba Inu ecosystem. In just a few hours, a significant amount of almost 280 billion SHIB tokens, worth about $2,360,220, was transferred to the Huobi wallet.
This significant influx of tokens suggests the potential intention to sell them, putting further downward pressure on the price of SHIB.
