Despite the fact that the Shiba Inu (SHIB) price has dropped 43.1 percent in November, the meme coin’s Twitter game is still going strong.
The canine token is the second-most popular cryptocurrency on social media this November, according to data released by cryptocurrency research platform CryptoRank, with a total of 4.02 million mentions.
However, Bitcoin (BTC) is the most popular cryptocurrency, with over 10 million references. On the other hand, Ether (ETH) has 2.7 million mentions, putting it in the third position. With 1.86 million and 1.76 million Twitter mentions, PancakeSwap (CAKE) and Dogecoin (DOGE) are also in the top five.
Despite failing to recapture its bullish momentum, Shiba Inu continues to gain traction with merchants. For example, electronics giant Newegg recently confirmed its intention to accept Shiba Inu as a new payment method.
In spite of the price drop, the meme coin continues to see new exchange listings.
Significant Growth on Twitter
SHIB supporters have been using hashtags like #SHIBARMY #ShibaSwap #shibainu #shibainucoin, and #SHIB to build support for the meme coin on microblogging site Twitter.
