Over the last couple of months, the prominent meme coin Shiba Inu ($SHIB) was seen dominating the entire crypto industry. However, the fervor around this community-driven project seemed to be simmering down. Despite the launch of its recent collectible card game, the altcoin barely garnered any gains. It seems like Binance users weren’t too curious about the meme coin either, as it failed to bag a spot on its top 10 trending search list.
As per recent data curated by Crypto Differ, Shiba Inu stood in the 14th spot on Binance’s trending searches. This was quite surprising to many considering the usual zeal around the network.
In the above chart, Binance Coin ($BNB) emerged as the most popular asset on the exchange. The world’s second-largest crypto, Ethereum ($ETH), stood second on this chart as well. This is mostly due to the increased liquidations that occurred throughout the day. It should be noted that a whopping $4.95 million in ETH liquidations took place over the last four hours.
Bitcoin, the world’s largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization, was ranked third, followed by Cardano ($ADA) and Solana ($SOL).
Other popular tokens like Luna Classic ($LUNC) and fundamental meme crypto Dogecoin ($DOGE), were also a part of the list.
Shiba Inu gains pocketed over the last couple of hours
While Shiba Inu’s popularity took a back seat, the asset’s price wasn’t faring too well either. At press time, most crypto assets were seen pocketing significant gains. Shiba Inu, however, limited its 24-hour price surge to 4.60%.
At press time, Shiba Inu was trading for $0.00001042. Earlier today, the altcoin managed to surge to a high of $0.0000107 from a low of $0.00001001.
It should be noted that the asset’s latest surge pulled SHIB out of its weekly stagnancy. Despite this, Shiba Inu continues to trade about 88% below its all-time high of $0.00008845, which it achieved exactly a year ago.
