Is it now the time to buy Shiba Inu (SHIB/USD)?

As cryptocurrencies continue to whipsaw, Shiba Inu (SHIB/USD) has been in the trenches. With a drop of more than 6% in a week, the cryptocurrency now trades at $0.0000092. A dip-buyer could be interested in the price level. That considers that SHIB has been holding it since touching a low of $0.000008 for a week.

The main concern for SHIB and other cryptocurrencies has been a confidence crisis brought about by the collapse of FTX. The sentiment is so far bearish as most tokens are currently trading lower. Other than that, SHIB has been building on the meme token strengths and looked to have overcome resistance at $0.000012.

Aside from the negative sentiment, Shiba Inu continues to suffer from the lack of significant developments. Notable among these is the SHIB metaverse, which has stalled for a while. On November 16, however, the Shiba Inu team issued some positive updates. The team gave a first concept art reveal of what to expect once the metaverse becomes a reality. Although the update reawakens expectations of the key project, SHIB investors are yet to show optimism. The price of the meme token has remained muted.
