Shiba Inu Open Interest Explodes 85% Amid 15% Price Jump, Why This Is Important

Shiba Inu is currently the talk of the crypto market after mounting a 15% surprise rally. However, beyond the price rally, SHIB is shining in other places, and one of those is the open interest. This metric has seen a significant increase, with potential implications for the SHIB price going forward.

In the same vein, the Shiba Inu open interest is up more than 111% on the Bybit exchange in the last day. So on average, the open interest for the meme coin is up a whopping 85% in 24 hours.

SHIB Price Still Seeing Upside

The drastic rise in the Shiba Inu open interest is undoubtedly a positive development for the SHIB price. This rise has now sent the open interest toward its previous all-time high of March 5, 2024. If history is anything to go by, if the open interest hits a new all-time high, then the meme coin could be looking at a new yearly peak toward $0.00004.

Amid the surge in open interest, the SHIB price also rose around 16% at the same time. The price has since corrected back downward, but according to data from the token tracking website CoinMarketCap, the meme coin is maintaining 24-hour gains of 7.77%.

Interestingly, the surge saw Shiba Inu briefly overtake Cardano and claim the 10th spot on the list of largest cryptocurrencies by market cap. However, with the price correction, Shiba Inu has fallen back down once more to 11th place.
