Additionally, an analysis of its Relative Strength Index (RSI) showed a slight increase due to the price rise, but it remains in a bear trend. Currently, the RSI is around 35, indicating a strong bear trend.

A drop in Shiba Inu’s address momentum

The brief pause in Shiba Inu’s downtrend has shifted attention to other metrics, such as daily active addresses. An analysis of this metric will help assess the increase or decline in activity on the network.

Assessing the daily active addresses on Santiment showed a decline over the last few weeks. The chart indicated that between the 11th and 12th of June, the number of active addresses was between 7,000 and 6,000.

However, subsequent declines reduced the number to around 4,000 and 3,700. As of this writing, the number of daily active addresses is around 2,500.

This indicates that, at the moment, the number of active addresses is too low to trigger any major price movement.

Shiba’s volume drops

The analysis of Shiba Inu’s volume showed a decline in the last few days, mirroring the trend in daily active addresses. The chart indicated that the volume is around $180 million as of this writing.
