Shiba Inu price is surging, sparking speculation of a rally towards the $0.001 milestone in the next 45 days. On March 12, 2025, SHIB climbed an impressive 7% to an intra-day high of $0.0000125 amid a bullish shift in the broader crypto market. With rising mentions and positive macro factors, could this meme coin rebound and surpass market expectations by mid-April? Let’s explore.
Is $0.001 Possible for Shiba Inu Price in the Next 45 Days?
Shiba Inu price could be on the verge of a major rebound as macro factors flip bullish. US inflation fell to 2.8%, which is lower than market expectations, fuelling speculations of a possible interest rate cut during next week’s FOMC meeting.
If the Federal Reserve trims rates from the current range of between 4.25% and 4.50%, it could drive a parabolic rally for Shiba Inu price in the next 45 days, and possibly lead to a rally towards $0.001.
A rapid surge in the SHIB burn rate could also drive such a parabolic rally. However, at press time, the burn rate was down 65%, indicative of fewer tokens being removed from the circulating supply.
However, as Shibarium approaches a crucial milestone, this burn rate could surge significantly and lower the total supply, leading to a significant upswing for Shiba Inu price.
Social metrics platform LunarCrush has also noted that meme tokens such as Shiba Inu have seen a significant increase in social mentions. Per the platform, SHIB mentions rose by 4,300, indicating that the market interest is rising, which may help fuel a parabolic price rally.
Mapping SHIB’s Path to $0.001
Shiba Inu price faces key technical barriers on its path to $0.001, with its massive 587 trillion token supply making such a rally highly challenging. If SHIB were to hit this target, it would surpass Ethereum in market cap, becoming the largest altcoin. However, institutional interest remains low, and no SHIB ETF filings. This limits the potential for widespread adoption.
Additionally, current market conditions suggest Shiba Inu price is unlikely to reach $0.001 within the next 45 days. The weekly RSI sits at 37, signaling bearish momentum and oversold conditions. With buying pressure lacking, SHIB faces significant hurdles in achieving sustained gains beyond $0.001.
However, the on-balance volume (OBV) indicator shows a bullish divergence as it remains elevated despite the price drop. This suggests that panic selling is behind the price decline rather than a bearish shift in the market sentiment. This makes it likely for the Shiba Inu price to rally.
Even if buying pressure resumes, a more realistic target for a Shiba Inu price prediction in the next 45 days is the 476.4% Fibonacci level of $0.00039.
SHIB/USDT: 1-Week Chart
To sum up, a Shiba Inu price rally to $0.001 in the next 45 days is unrealistic. However, if the SHIB burn rate were to suddenly increase and institutions show interest in a SHIB ETF, such gains could happen.
Ethereum (ETH) price has delayed retesting $2,000 despite being inches away from this psychological level.
Ethereum Price Today: ETH is Down 1.08%, Trades at $1,825
Ethereum price today trades at $1,825 after dropping 1.08%. This outlook is likely to get worse as technicals suggest a waning momentum that could soon tip over, favoring bears. With Bitcoin price also showing signs of short-term correction, investors need to be cautious.
Why Ethereum (ETH) Rally to $2,000 is Delayed?
Despite the recent crypto market outlook, Ethereum has failed to muster the momentum or buying pressure to reach the $2,000 psychological level, same as Bitcoin (BTC). A closer look at the four-hour chart for ETH shows bearish divergence. The higher highs and higher lows formed since April 23 has been running on fumes. The RSI, on the other hand, has produced lower highs above the mean level. This non-conformity is termed bearish divergence. Often this setup results in a correction.
ETH/USDT 1-day chart
If this bearish divergence plays out, Ethereum price could slide down to $1,721 or revisit the $1,668 support level. Ideally, a bottom formation between $1,668 to $1,514 is a good confirmation for the bullish crypto market outlook.
Whales Scoop $1.047 billion ETH in 3 Weeks
While a short-term correction is part and parcel of the bull run, whales have taken advantage of the noise and consolidation by accumulation $1.047 billion worth of ETH since April 13. Santiment data shows that investors with 10k to 100k ETH in their wallets increased their holdings from 24.64 million to 25.23 million tokens.
Whales Accumulate $1.047 billion ETH
As noted above the sentiment surrounding Ethereum might be bearish due to the lackluster performance in 2024 and 2025. Regardless, Ethereum has finished four consecutive months of a downtrend and a bounce here is highly likely. So what can investors expect next from Ethereum (ETH)?
What’s Next for ETH?
From a technical perspective, Ethereum (ETH) is the most hated altcoins and everybody is paying attention to its competitor – Solana (SOL). While Solana price may rally, the chances for Ethereum price to overshoot are high.
From a conservative standpoint, $2k is a good target. But depending on the momentum, investors can expect Ethereum to rally to $3k before the year ends.
If we are being highly optimistic and consider ETH to be an underdog, then expecting it to go beyond $4k is a good place to start. Some analysts are even expecting Ethereum price to hit $80k.
Regardless, time will tel what happens to the second-largest cryptocurrency in the world.
A lot happened this week in crypto, marking developments expected to continue shaping the industry. Important headlines came from administrative decisions, ecosystem developments, and analysts probing the market outlook.
In case you missed it, the following is a roundup of some of the most important developments in the crypto market this week.
XRP Lawsuit’s Jay Clayton Became New SDNY Attorney
“Trump’s former SEC Chair Jay Clayton has taken his position as interim US attorney for the Southern District of New York. He will serve for up to four months until confirmed by the Senate or appointed by Manhattan federal judges,” former Fox Business reporter Eleanor Terrett reported.
The move came as Democratic leaders in the Senate reportedly hinted at blocking Clayton’s nomination. Trump’s move to install him as interim could see Clayton avoid the Senate confirmation process.
Clayton is the legal expert who initially filed the longstanding legal action between the SEC and Ripple. As it happened, Clayton filed the lawsuit on December 22, 2020, and resigned the next day in what will be remembered as a “parting shot” for the agency.
Pi Network Pioneer Frustration Over Ambiguous Roadmap
Another crypto incident this week concerned Pi Network pioneers. As BeInCrypto reported, the controversial project released its Mainnet Migration Roadmap. However, it failed to impress pioneers as it lacked key details.
Specifically, several gaps sparked concerns, including failing to disclose how many Pioneers remain in the queue. Similarly, it was unable to show the network’s daily migration capacity. The absence of these figures makes it impossible for users to predict when their migration will occur.
Further, opaque criteria for node rewards and the UI’s “Transferable Balance” underestimating actual migrated amounts raised flags. Pi Network also offers no audit or error‑resolution process for users who spot mismatches in their historical mining data, exacerbating the fears.
“I thought we were mining all of these PI coins this whole time? I thought the security circles were the Consensus Mechanism. It kinda seems to me like there isn’t a blockchain, and never was one. What kind of “Blockchain protocol” would “Require” all tokens to be minted at genesis?” one community member wrote.

Data on Coingecko shows PI coin was trading for $0.6539 as of this writing, up by a modest 1.1% in the last 24 hours.
Bitcoin Cycle Unfolds Noticeably Different From Previous Ones
More interestingly, BeInCrypto reported a concerning shift: this cycle is unfolding remarkably differently than the past ones post-halving.
In previous cycles, BTC price tended to rally aggressively months after the Bitcoin halving. The post-halving period saw strong upward momentum and parabolic price action.
This trend was largely driven by retail enthusiasm and speculative demand, which proved most pronounced from 2012 to 2016 and 2016 to 2020.
Things are happening differently in the current cycle. Instead of accelerating after the halving, the price surge began in October and December 2024, driven by Bitcoin ETF (exchange-traded funds) hype. This was followed by consolidation in January 2025 and a correction in late February.
PancakeSwap Announces CAKE Tokenomics Date
This week in crypto, PancakeSwap announced the official date for its CAKE tokenomics, April 23. As BeInCrypto reported, key changes included the removal of veCAKE, staking, and revenue sharing, with 5.3 million CAKE to be burned annually to curb supply.
However, there was also controversy as Cakepie DAO pushed back against veCAKE removal. Several developers and community members believe CAKE Tokenomics 3.0 will benefit the project in the long term.
“At its core, CAKE Tokenomics 3.0 defends true value and protects CAKE holders by strengthening long-term fundamentals—such as aggressively cutting emissions to accelerate deflation and sustainably grow value,” Chef Philip said.
Meanwhile, others voiced strong concerns on X (Twitter), criticizing the decision to eliminate veCAKE. Among them was Cakepie DAO, one of the largest veCAKE holders, who called it non-transparent and potentially damaging to projects built around that model.
Against this backdrop, PancakeSwap resorted to a $1.5 million CAKE compensation plan.
“PancakeSwap is willing to provide 1.5M USD in CAKE to CakePie DAO primarily used to compensate CKP Holders if CakePie DAO enables mCAKE holders to redeem 1:1 back to CAKE and opens the redemption page in a timely manner if the proposal passes. Detailed plans will be announced once the mirror proposal on CakePie is completed,” the Head Chef of PancakeSwap wrote.
Data on CoinGecko shows Pancake’s CAKE was trading for $2.12 as of this writing, up by nearly 10% in the last 24 hours.
Zora Airdrop and Token Launch Announcement
Adding to the list of the many events that happened this week in crypto, Zora Network announced that it would airdrop 1 billion ZORA tokens (10% of the total supply) on April 23. The tokens would reward early platform users across two snapshot periods.
As it happened, the crypto airdrop happened in style, sparking confusion as it lacked an official checker or claim site. Users were required to go to the contract address and check their allocations.
Speaking to BeInCrypto, Jesse Pollak, the creator of the Base blockchain, said that one must not understand anything about crypto or the underlying infrastructure before posting on Zora. He also defended the value of content coins, emphasizing their potential for creators despite volatility.
A Dogecoin (DOGE) price breakout past its previous All-Time High (ATH) price is gradually becoming possible amid the current market setup. While still tied in a long-drawn consolidation, a potential breakout is ahead for the memecoin, according to predictions from market analysts.
Dogecoin Price and Open Interest Outlook
As of this writing, DOGE’s price has changed hands for $0.1569, which has increased by 3.3% in the past 24 hours. This price trend is a testament to how resilient the DOGE price is, having traded at a low spot value of $0.1532. The memecoin has traded at a very close range during this period.
The current DOGE outlook shows a bullish trend in the futures market as showcased by Open Interest data. Data from Coinglass pegs the total Dogecoin committed to the futures market at 9.87 billion DOGE. This was valued at $1.54 billion and has skyrocketed by more than 5% in 24 hours.
Top crypto exchanges like Binance, OKX, and Bybit saw the highest DOGE open interest record. While the price traded at a relatively close range, the open interest commitment proves that traders with leverage are betting on the asset.
DOGE Price to $5.6?
Optimism trails Dogecoin, despite its spot value now trading down 78.71% from its ATH of $0.7376. Market analyst Dogedog told his more than 58,600 followers on X that the price of DOGE is heading to $5.6.
While Dogegod did not provide a timeline or much context for his prediction, he highlighted how the memecoin breaks falling wedges. The analyst is not alone in his projection for the coin, as an earlier DOGE price analysis, Ali Martinez, predicted a $0.29 rally for the asset in the near term.
Although this price trend is not unrealistic, the broader market slowdown may serve as a bottleneck. Key performance metrics already tipped the Dogecoin price in line for a short-term breakout. With trading volume up 6% to more than $586 million as of writing, retail interest in the coin has further skyrocketed.
Dogecoin remains the lead among altcoins being considered for an exchange-traded fund (ETF) product. As reported earlier by CoinGape, 21Shares filed for a spot Dogecoin ETF, the latest asset manager to make the move. The belief is that an approval can usher in institutional funds, which can help fuel the coin’s price growth.
