Shiba Inu\u2019s layer-2 network, Shibarium, has officially crossed one billion total transactions, a significant achievement for the ongoing push to expand beyond meme coin status<\/a>. Shibarium\u2019s growth stems from steady activity and the adoption of the layer-2 network within the broader Shiba Inu ecosystem. However, this major milestone<\/a> hasn\u2019t translated into positive momentum for SHIB\u2019s price, which has been under bearish pressure for weeks now alongside the rest of the crypto market.<\/p>\n

Shibarium Surpasses 1 Billion Transactions With Intensifying Network Activity<\/h2>\n

The launch of Shibarium in August 2023 marked a turning point<\/a> for the meme cryptocurrency\u2019s ecosystem. The goal of the layer-2 network was to improve the speed and lower the cost of Shiba Inu transactions on the Ethereum blockchain. Since its launch, Shibarium has consistently increased user participation, smart contract deployments, and daily transactions.<\/p>\n

According to data from Shibariumscan,<\/a> total transactions have now exceeded the one billion mark, showcasing the sheer amount of activity the network has processed. At the time of writing, Shibarium boasts 1,012,261,457 transactions processed in 10,284,922 blocks and 194,705,571 addresses created.<\/p>\n

Daily transaction volumes frequently reach the millions<\/a>, sometimes tens of millions, during periods of high activity in the wider crypto market. Notably, the number of transactions processed on the Shibarium network in the past 24 hours has reached 2.75 million, with an even larger 4.11 million processed in the previous 24-hour timeframe. However, despite the milestone and notable transaction activity, SHIB has failed to make any meaningful price gains.<\/p>\n

Why Is Shiba Inu Price Still Struggling And Holding Flat Near $0.000012?<\/h2>\n

SHIB\u2019s price performance has been far less encouraging despite Shibarium\u2019s transaction milestone. Since its launch, major milestones tied to the Layer-2 network have often led to increased buying activity. During earlier stages of Shibarium\u2019s rollout, even modest developments were enough to spark rallies<\/a> or at least short-term price jumps for SHIB.\u00a0<\/p>\n

However, the correlation between Shibarium milestones and SHIB\u2019s price has finally detached, and the hype has finally faded. Shibarium is now only a strong part of the Shiba Inu ecosystem, but its ability to influence the sentiment among crypto investors and price action has diminished.<\/p>\n

However, outside this detachment, the crypto markets have been generally bearish for a while. The entire crypto landscape has experienced a persistent pullback<\/a> since early March, with many large-market-cap cryptocurrencies struggling to find upward momentum. Bitcoin and other major cryptocurrencies have been on a pullback, which was recently made worse <\/a>by Donald Trump\u2019s tariffs announcement.<\/p>\n

Over the past seven days, SHIB has been locked around the $0.000012 level and is currently down by 9.4%. The absence of strong buying interest has kept SHIB\u2019s price trapped within this tight downfall, and there is even a risk of it falling below $0.000012 anytime soon. At the time of writing, Shiba Inu is trading at $0.00001210, down by 1.2% in the past 24 hours.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
