Shiba Inu (SHIB) ETF Could Significantly Boost the Cryptocurrency's Price
Oct 25, 2024 at 12:22 pm
With institutional investors increasing their exposure to Bitcoin through ETFs, there is a question of what other asset could experience a similar surge in investments, and Shiba Inu is currently leading the pack.
The potential launch of a Shiba Inu (SHIB) exchange-traded fund (ETF) could significantly boost the cryptocurrency’s price, particularly if it manages to capture a substantial share of Bitcoin ETF inflows.
With institutional investors increasing their exposure to Bitcoin through ETFs, there is a question of what other asset could experience a similar surge in investments, and Shiba Inu is currently leading the pack.
Bitcoin ETFs and the Ripple Effect
This has been due to the entry of institutional investors through Bitcoin ETFs. Since its inception in January 2024, these products have seen $21.4 billion of total inflows and contributed to the spike of Bitcoin prices to more than $73,000 in March just before the halving happened. This rally was the first such rise in the price of Bitcoin in a year of halving, which is a major event.
While capital flows into the Bitcoin ETFs were dampened in mid-March due to market correction, they have started to rise again after the market’s recovery. This has led to debates on whether other digital assets can also have their ETFs, thanks to the success of these ETFs. The approval of Ethereum ETF came in July 2024, although the cryptocurrency has not been as strong in its performance as Bitcoin.
Other assets have also come into focus, with applications for ETFs that will track Solana (SOL) and XRP that have been made but are pending approval. However, Shiba Inu, which has gone beyond the meme coin, is also being considered for a potential ETF.
Growing Support for a Shiba Inu ETF
The growth of the Shiba Inu ecosystem has raised questions about the possibility of a SHIB ETF. Some of the key influencers in the community like the content marketer Lucie has expressed her views that a SHIB ETF could be launched soon. In June, the Shiba Inu community moved forward by calling on Grayscale, the largest digital asset manager, to apply for a SHIB ETF. Even though Grayscale has not provided an official filing regarding the matter, the idea has gained considerable attention.
Should it be approved, a Shiba Inu ETF could bring much-needed resources into the SHIB market. As seen with Bitcoin, the introduction of an ETF can have a significant positive impact on the demand for the respective asset. This increase in demand normally results in increased liquidity, making the asset easier to trade. For SHIB, this increased liquidity could mean that the value of the coin increases, which is good news for investors.
However, it is still unclear how much this influx will affect the cryptocurrency, but it could be a turning point for the cryptocurrency as it has gradually been growing in recent years. Analysts have explored how Shiba Inu’s price might respond if a SHIB ETF garners 50% of Bitcoin ETF capital inflows. Currently, Bitcoin ETFs have seen $21.4 billion in inflows, and if Shiba Inu were to garner half of that, or $10.7 billion, the market could witness a huge rally. With a Bank of America (BoA) multiplier of 29.5x, this capital inflow could increase Shiba Inu’s market cap by an additional $315.65 billion.
