Shiba Inu

Major cryptocurrencies have exhibited an interesting price dynamic in the past few days. According to data from Coinmarketcap, the majority of cryptocurrencies, including <a href="https://bitcoinist.com/tesla-dogecoin-payments-x/">Dogecoin</a>, have posted losses in the past 24 hours. On the other hand, some of these cryptocurrencies are still on a price increase when looking at a larger timeframe and many more addresses have crossed into the profitability zone in the past seven days.&nbsp; 
<a href="https://bitcoinist.com/dogecoin-long-term-bullish-rally/">Dogecoin</a>, for instance, is still up by 9% in a 7-day timeframe. As a result, the number of DOGE addresses in profitability <a href="https://bitcoinist.com/dogecoin-long-term-bullish-rally/">has now been pushed </a>to 83%, with 163,000 more addresses waiting to be pushed into profit if DOGE crosses over $0.1657. 
Holders of <a href="https://www.newsbtc.com/shiba-inu/shiba-inu-price-massive-surge/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Shiba Inu, </a>Dogecoin’s meme counterpart, haven’t been <a href="https://www.newsbtc.com/shiba-inu/shiba-inu-in-danger-zone-18-price-crash-incoming/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">treated to the same effect.</a> At the time of writing, the number of SHIB holders in profitability has largely consolidated around 60%.&nbsp;

According to data from IntoTheBlock’s “In/Out of the Money” metric, Dogecoin is still proving itself to be the top meme coin for holders over the long run. The majority of Dogecoin holders are still in profitability, despite the <a href="https://www.newsbtc.com/news/ethereum/whispers-in-the-deep-why-are-ethereum-whales-disappearing/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">wider lackluster movement</a> of most cryptocurrencies. Particularly, the number of Dogecoin holders in profit now stands at 83%, its highest level in weeks.&nbsp; 
At the time of writing, this metric shows that 5.23 million DOGE addresses are still in profit, representing 83.03% of the total addresses. This is in comparison to 826,350 addresses currently in loss, which represent 13.12% of the total addresses. Interestingly, 242,710 addresses, representing 3.85% of total addresses, are currently “in the money,” meaning they are neither in profit nor loss. 
Shiba Inu, on the other hand, has not really seen a growth in the profitability of its holders. In terms of price action, <a href="https://bitcoinist.com/why-is-dogecoin-and-shiba-inu-price-up-today/">both cryptocurrencies have increased</a> from their price point in the beginning of the month. DOGE is up by 29%, while SHIB is up by 13.79%. However, on-chain data shows a varying level of profitability for traders.&nbsp; 
Holder profitability for SHIB is currently at 60%, with the 810,230 addresses in this cohort. Around 487,970 addresses are currently in loss, which represents 36.18% of the total addresses. Lastly, 50,590 addresses, representing 3.75% of total addresses, are “in the money.” 
Profitability around the current price also shows that only 41.38% of Shiba Inu addresses that bought between $0.000020 and $0.000027 are making a profit. In contrast, more Dogecoin addresses (55.84%) are in profit around the current price level of $0.132243 and $0.179879.

Shiba Inu has a long way to go before it reaches Dogecoin’s level of profitability for holders. An interesting fact about Shiba Inu is that it is deflationary by design, unlike Dogecoin, which has an unlimited supply. This means over time, the total number of Shiba Inu coins will decrease, making the remaining ones scarcer and potentially more valuable. This could lead to a <a href="https://bitcoinist.com/shiba-inu-scores-another-major-listing-that-could-send-price-flying/">stable price increase</a> over the years and more investors moving into profitability.&nbsp; 
At the time of writing, DOGE is trading at $0.1588 while SHIB is trading at $0.00002403.
