Shiba Inu’s futures market has seen a significant rise in activity, with open interest reaching 8.9 trillion SHIB, valued at approximately $110 million. This figure reflects a strong engagement from traders who continue to participate in unsettled futures contracts involving the meme-based cryptocurrency.
Although trading interest in futures has increased, SHIB’s spot price remains sluggish in its upward movement. At the time of this report, the price of SHIB stood at $0.00001211, having increased by 0.11 percent during the past 24 hours. The currency dropped by 2.21 percent from its prior hour following its initial brief price increase during the trading session.
Shiba Inu reached $0.00001244 as its peak intraday point but later returned to previous levels. Several cryptocurrency assets declined during the downtrend as market sentiment weakened and investors doubted upcoming American macroeconomic events.
