• Shiba Inu recently regained a crucial support level from mid-March, showcasing potential upward momentum.
• April’s negative 30-day MVRV ratio indicates many holders were at a loss, suggesting a potential buying opportunity.
• The Shibarium network is gearing up for a hard fork, promising faster transactions and lower costs.

Shiba Inu coin, a prominent meme coin, has seen a downward trend on shorter timeframe charts over the last month. Despite this, it has managed to hold on to a crucial support level that has been active since the middle of March. 

While Bitcoin remains in a consolidation phase following its recent halving, altcoins like Shiba Inu could experience heightened volatility. The decreasing correlation between Shiba Inu and Bitcoin might aid in a bullish recovery, although a sell-off in the Bitcoin market could adversely impact Shiba Inu and other altcoins.

Throughout most of April, the 30-day MVRV ratio for Shiba Inu was negative, indicating that holders were experiencing losses and suggesting a lack of market confidence. However, an upward trend in the mean coin age over the past six weeks, alongside the MVRV ratio, points to a potentially favorable buying opportunity. The Weighted Sentiment has shown a positive shift recently, bolstering support for a bullish outlook.

Despite these indicators, Shiba Inu has struggled to surpass a significant resistance level and has entered a correction phase. This reversal coincides with neutral trading volumes, indicating a hesitancy among traders to move SHIB’s price decisively.

Adding to the prospects for Shiba Inu, the Shibarium network is poised for a significant upgrade with a hard fork scheduled for May 2. This update is expected to enhance the network’s efficiency, reduce costs, and better equip it to accommodate a growing user base. LUCIE shared an X post providing insights into this anticipated network transformation.
