SHIB rises 6% in bleeding market
As the cryptocurrency market remains in deep red, with Bitcoin dropping to $22,500 and Ethereum declining to $1,222, along with the majority of other coins, Shiba Inu has been putting up some growth despite all this.
Over the past 24 hours, the second biggest canine crypto has shown a rise of nearly 6%, according to CoinMarketCap.
Cardano, Solana and a few other coins within the top 20 list have also demonstrated substantial growth.
