Here is How High Shiba Inu Must Rise to Flip BNB and Enter Top 5

Following Shiba Inu’s renewed rally, we explored how high SHIB must rise to overthrow BNB and break into the top five crypto rankings

Despite enjoying renewed momentum in the past few days and eventually reclaiming $0.000013 on August 22, SHIB has remained static in the global crypto ranking

Data from CoinMarketCap shows Shiba Inu currently ranks as the 22nd biggest cryptocurrency by market cap, with a valuation of $7.83 billion. It remains far from the top five rankings—a position that lead developer Shytoshi Kusama envisions for the cryptocurrency

BNB, which ranks as the fifth-biggest cryptocurrency, trades at $860.88 per token. The market value of all 139.28 million BNB in circulation is around $119.28 billion. On the other hand, SHIB sits in the 22nd spot and is valued at $7.83 billion. Its current market cap translates to a price of $0.00001329 per token

For Shiba Inu to overthrow BNB and enter the top five ranking, it would require a massive rally that would take its market cap to an unprecedented level. At its current $7.83 billion valuation, Shiba Inu must surge 1,433% to flip BNB and break into the top five

If Shiba Inu experiences a 1,433% growth, its market cap will soar to $120.03 billion, exceeding BNB’s $119.28 billion valuation. Notably, this analysis assumes that while Shiba Inu experiences such a remarkable rally, BNB remains static

Potential Impact on Price

Such an incredible feat would significantly impact Shiba Inu’s price. If Shiba Inu’s supply remains fixed at 589.24 trillion tokens, a market cap increase to $120.03 billion would boost its price from the current $0.000013 range to $0.0002037

This estimated price would mark a new ATH for Shiba Inu, surpassing the previous record of $0.00008845 by roughly 130.30%. Reaching this target is no small feat. It would require the alignment of several factors, including increased utility, broader adoption, moderate burn, and favorable market conditions

SHIB to $0.0002 Predictions

Meanwhile, the $0.0002 price target is not strange to existing Shiba Inu community members. Several market commentators have set this target for Shiba Inu

In November, top crypto analyst Charting Guy said he was doubling his position in Shiba Inu as the asset was preparing for a rally toward $0.0002. Notably, Forbes suggested in one of its publications that SHIB will surpass the $0.0002 target this year

In our previous analysis, the leading AI model ChatGPT affirmed that the $0.0002 forecast is a realistic target, which might materialize between 2025 and 2026. Notably, xAI’s Grok echoed a similar sentiment, suggesting that SHIB will hit the $0.0002 target by mid-2026
