Can SHIB Break Out of Downtrend?
The cryptocurrency market can be very dynamic, especially for cryptocurrencies like SHIB. At the time of writing, SHIB is trading at $0.0000165 and is still down 3.81% over a seven-day period. Looking at the charts, it is clear that SHIB still appears to be on the verge of breaking out of the major downtrend that has been going on since the beginning of June.
The daily candlestick chart showed two consecutive greens on Friday and Saturday, which is a bullish signal that crypto traders love to see. Notably, these green candles pushed many SHIB addresses into the profitable zone. The number of holders making money at the current price is now around 47% of the total addresses, a sharp increase from 20.47% recorded on July 5.

For SHIB to suspendmaintain this upward momentumThe overall cryptocurrency market needs to move towards a more bullish trend. SHIB could rise in line with Bitcoin if it can hold its current support levels and the latter breaks above $61,000 next week.
