On Feb. 15, 2026, Shiba Inu (SHIB) briefly climbed above $0.000007 before facing a quick rejection. Bitcoin (BTC) led the move, briefly reaching $70,000 then retreating to $68,000.
According to CoinGecko data, SHIB shows a near 10% weekly gain but is negative on other time frames (Ed. note: weekly rebound of nearly 10%). The token is down 2.7% over 24 hours, 22.2% over one month, and nearly 60% since February 2025.
SHIB reached $0.000032 in December 2024 and slid through 2025. A liquidity crunch in February 2026 triggered a market-wide sell-off that hit SHIB hard.
Observers cite macroeconomic uncertainty, geopolitical tensions, and low liquidity as key headwinds. Many traders expect SHIB to track Bitcoin (BTC) before any sustained recovery.
CoinCodex analysts forecast Bitcoin could reclaim $79,000 by the end of February, but likely would not hold that level. CoinCodex also projects Shiba Inu to trade near $0.000000799 on Apr. 29, 2026.
