Shiba Inu (SHIB) fans have been shouting: "Reaching 1 dollar in 2026!"
First, let's look at the numbers: the current price of SHIB is $0.000008, and it needs to rise 12.5 million times to reach $1. Sounds crazy? But this coin did indeed rise 45 million times in 2021—from $3 to $1 million.
The question arises - what about the supply?
There are 589.2 trillion SHIB in circulation. Simple arithmetic: $1 × 589.2 trillion = 5892 trillion USD market cap. This is 5 times higher than the global GDP and 10 times higher than the total value of S&P 500 companies. In short, with the current supply, $1 is simply unrealistic.

After the ETH merge, the concepts of PoW and PoS have once again attracted attention. PoW relies on Miner competition to solve problems, which consumes a lot of electricity and has a high threshold; while PoS determines validators based on the amount of Ether held, dropping energy consumption and participation thresholds. Although the daily experience for users is not significant, PoS promotes broader user participation, which is conducive to ecological development.
