Shiba Inu price history
Past prices tell you what already happened. They are not a forecast, and crypto has no obligation to repeat itself.
What is Shiba Inu, simply?
Shiba Inu is a meme coin, launched in 2020, explicitly inspired by Dogecoin's success and built around the same Shiba Inu dog imagery. It has an extremely large total supply (in the trillions), which is why its per-coin price is a tiny fraction of a cent, and has developed its own ecosystem of related tokens and projects since launch.
A simple way to picture it
Shiba Inu is, by its own creators' framing, "the Dogecoin killer" — a meme coin explicitly built to compete with an already-established meme coin, which tells you a great deal about how much of its value is driven by community and attention rather than a distinct underlying technology.
Should SHIB be your first crypto?
A famously low per-coin price does not mean a coin is "cheap" in any meaningful sense — see our converter and markets explainer on why price-per-coin is a misleading way to judge value. Shiba Inu is highly speculative even by meme coin standards, and its huge supply is a deliberate design choice, not a bargain.
If you do buy SHIB, store it safely
Crypto left on an exchange is held by that exchange, not by you. For anything you would mind losing, move it to a wallet whose keys you control, and write the recovery phrase on paper — never in a photo, a notes app or an email. No exchange, wallet, support agent or website, including this one, will ever need your seed phrase. Anyone who asks for it is stealing from you.
Shiba Inu questions beginners ask
Why is Shiba Inu's price so low per coin?
Because trillions of coins exist. A low price per unit says nothing about total value — see our note on market cap in Markets.
