The broader crypto market appears to be recovering, as evidenced by a 1.2% jump in the total market cap. However, the Shiba Inu (SHIB) trading volume plunged 24% within the past 24 hours, raising concerns about a possible liquidity crunch. Advertisement Sharp drop in Shiba Inu trading volume According to CoinMarketCap data , Shiba Inu trading volume decreased by 20% over the past day to $130.3 million. Despite this fall, the SHIB price increased 1.4% within the same time frame to trade at $0.000006205. The price of SHIB also rose 6.5% over the past week but declined slightly by 0.1% on the monthly charts. Typically, when trading volume declines, it suggests reduced conviction from both retail and institutional players. However, a volume drop alone does not mean Shiba Inu is experiencing a liquidity crisis. Rather, it is more of a symptom of lower short-term interest or broader market calm. Still, some analysts have tagged the drop in SHIB reserves on centralized exchanges as a liquidity risk. Since early March, traders have moved out more tokens from exchanges, signaling an increase in buying activities. As of March 4, only about 80.4 trillion SHIB sat on all exchanges. Large token holders were largely responsible for withdrawing large amounts of SHIB from crypto trading platforms.
