There are those who point out that this boost in Shiba Inu’s price is due to recent announcements about an expected game for the cryptocurrency ecosystem, similar to highly successful projects, such as Axie infinity: Shiba Eternity. Other analysts simply they allude to the recent momentum that Ethereum seems to be giving life to the entire market.
