This decline appears possible as the coin continues to register a fall in demand. According to Santiment’s data, SHIB’s daily active addresses observed on a 30-day moving average revealed a 56% decline in the daily count of addresses involved in SHIB’s transactions over the past month.
Likewise, new demand for the memecoin has plunged. In fact, according to the on-chain data provider, the number of new addresses created to trade SHIB daily has dropped by 51% over the same period.

A decline in the number of active addresses trading an asset is often a precursor to low trading volume. When this decline is persistent, the downward pressure on the asset’s price mounts.
The predicted fall below $0.0002 is possible if SHIB continues to record a decline in its demand.

Furthermore, SHIB’s high Market Value to Realized Value (MVRV) ratio puts it at risk of increased selling pressure. This metric measures the ratio between an asset’s current market price and the average price of every coin or token acquired for that asset.
At press time, SHIB’s MVRV ratio was 38.28% and heading north. When an asset’s MVRV ratio is positive in this manner, the asset is deemed to be overvalued. This means that a significant number of asset holders are “in the money,” triggering the need to sell and lock in profits.

However, despite the decline in SHIB’s value, bullish sentiment among market participants has been re-emerging lately. The coin’s weighted sentiment, for instance, was positive at press time and has been so since 30 April.
If this bullish sentiment persists, SHIB’s price might break out of its current pattern in an uptrend to trade at $0.00003 on the charts.
