Shiba Inu continues to be considered a high-risk investment for new investors. According to NS3.AI, the memecoin has experienced a significant decline, falling over 90% from its peak in October 2021. The article emphasizes that price targets ranging from $0.01 to $1 are deemed unrealistic due to Shiba Inu's substantial circulating supply of approximately 589 trillion. Additionally, a statement from the SEC in February 2025 highlights that holders of meme coins like Shiba Inu are not protected under federal securities laws.
