is
up
by
7%

amidst
an
uptick
in
the
meme
coin
market,
coming
ahead
of
Dogecoin
at
this
time.
The

coin
niche
has
witnessed
a
strong

in
the
past
day,

of
interest
amidst

do
better
in

At

time,

Although
current
data
from

platform
IntoTheBlock
(ITB)
suggests
DOGE
is
still
holding
on
for
a
longer-term
overperformance
over
SHIB,
SHIB
is
starting
to
position
itself
to
outperform
DOGE
in
the
short
term
on
a
cost
basis.
According
to
ITB’s
holding
by
time
metric,
DOGE
has
seen
a
1.86%
increase
in
the
number
of
holders
in
the
past
30
days,
compared
to
a
0.43%
increase
for
SHIB.
ITB
terms
holders
as
passive
investors
that
have
held
the
asset
for
more
than
one
year.
However,
the
number
of
cruisers
(investors
holding
between
1
to
12
months)
flips
the
short-term
interest
in
the
favor
of
SHIB.
As
of
this
writing,
SHIB’s
cruisers
have
increased
by
+5.69%
in
a
30-day
timeframe.
The
metric,
on
DOGE’s
side,
shows
a
2.44%
decrease.

SHIB
To
Breakout
Of
Parallel
Channel
The
recent
increase
in
volume
and
short-term
activity
suggests
that
SHIB
is
ready
to
break
out
of
a
descending
parallel
channel
of
lower
highs.
As
pointed
out
on
social
media
by
crypto
analyst
Ali
Martinez,
SHIB
has
been
trading
in
a
descending
parallel
channel
since
the
last
week
of
April.
Current
price
action
shows
SHIB
is
now
at
the
upper
end
of
the
descending
and
is
at
a
critical
junction
for
a
breakout
or
reversal.
