SHIB, which started as a joke about joke currency Dogecoin (DOGE), launched in Aug. 2020. Similar to DOGE, Shiba inu has been used to raise money for charitable causes, including fighting COVID-19 in India. Dogecoin fans have used the token to sponsor Olympics teams and a NASCAR driver.
Vitalik Buterin’s India donation and Elon Musk tweet fuel Shiba Inu
Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin made a huge donation in Shiba Inu to help fight the COVID-19 pandemic in India, and went on to burn hundreds of trillions of SHIB worth more than $6 billion. The token burn reduced SHIB's supply and impressed investors concerned about inflation. India’s Crypto Covid Relief, a community-run fund that Buterin sent the donation to, announced in Sept. 2021 that it had completed converting its SHIB coins into USDC. The conversion locked in the value for the fund, winning SHIB more fans.

SHIB soared after Elon Musk tweeted a picture of his Shiba Inu dog, Floki. If the Tesla CEO keeps tweeting about the puppy, SHIB could get a boost.

The Coinbase listing also bodes well for Shiba Inu. Coinbase, the largest crypto exchange in the U.S, is used by many institutional investors and brings significant visibility to cryptocurrencies. After being listed on the exchange, cryptos often rise in what's known as the "Coinbase effect."
Shiba Inu's (SHIB) price prediction
Amid its growing popularity with Chinese crypto investors, expanding exchange support, and Coinbase listing, SHIB could reach another high. The coin has traded at between $0.00000516 and $0.00003502 over the past year.

When will Shiba Inu reach one cent?
DOGE fans have been hoping for the $1 milestone, while the SHIB community wants to see the altcoin hit $0.01. At that milestone, an investment of $1,000 now would be worth more than $400,000. SHIB has gained about 25,000,000 percent over the past year, putting its average monthly growth at more than 2,000,000 percent. Assuming SHIB gains just 200 percent per month, the crypto could reach $0.01 in early 2022.
SHIB is a good investment
Many people have gotten rich trading Dogecoin, and that's happening with Shiba Inu as well. The Shiba Inu team is expanding the project in a way that promises to make the altcoin more valuable in the future. Currently, SHIB has two other tokens—LEASH and BONE—that should complement it. There's also ShibaSwap, a marketplace for trading cryptocurrencies. SHIB could appreciate as more traders join its native exchange.

SHIB also stands to benefit from a Robinhood listing. After Coinbase listed SHIB, people have been campaigning Robinhood to do so as well. Given Robinhood's popularity, a listing there could boost Shiba Inu.
