SHIB’s potential to rally

Although SHIB’s price growth partly relies on the general market momentum, the asset receives backing from increased network activity. In particular, the upcoming layer 2 scaling solution dubbed Shibarium is projected to spur network and price growth.
Furthermore, Shiba Inu is witnessing increased activity from the burning front, with the initiative aimed at reducing SHIB’s supply and consequently impacting the price. In this line, SHIB developers announced that every transaction on the Shibarium network would result in a burn of the token. At the moment, the Shibarium update remains unknown.
