SHIB/USD Rejected at $0.00000757 Level – Is it a Good time to Short?

The SHIB/USD closed at $0.00000757, after placing a high of $0.00000799, and a low of $0.00000732. The cryptocurrency followed the market trend, remaining on the back foot during the Asian trading session.

Shiba INU was created anonymously in August 2020, and soon after its launch, the crypto coin gained the attention of the market, as its prices surged amid headlines from personalities like Tesla CEO Elon Musk and the co-founder of Ethereum, Vitalik Buterin. However, now the project is looking to get out of the meme-coin rhetoric, as it has launched its DeFi platform, ShibaSwap. This platform is fully equipped with its own swap interface, budding decentralized autonomous organization structure and yield farming; the platform was launched on the Ethereum network.

SHIB/USD

The developers behind the dog-themed cryptocurrency launched this much-awaited ShibaSwap DEX on July 6. Recently, the Shiba Inu announced three new pairs on its decentralized exchange, named ETH-USDT, LEASH-BONE, and SHIB-BONE. Despite the addition of new pairs, the coin did not see a bullish movement in its prices. However, the addition should help attract more capital to the exchange, that will add further value to the coin, despite it being a meme-coin.

Meanwhile, Shiba Inu’s official Twitter account tweeted a full audit report for the recently launched ShibaSwap exchange. The recent massive inflows and interest in SHIB/USD could be attributed to two factors, namely the coin being a meme-crypto and the audit report that was launched recently.

The conditions surrounding the cryptocurrency market have not been supportive, as the BTC/USD has been declining, and the US dollar has also been strong in the market. The greenback has a negative correlation with SHIB/USD, and it has been high against major currencies, with DXY at 92.42; as a result, the SHIB/USD dropped on Thursday.
