Shiba Inu investors continue to endure major losses as the SHIB price remains 87% below its all-time high price reached back in 2021. Multiple price crashes over the last few have left the majority of investors in the red with profitability dropping to early 2024 levels once again.

65% Of Shiba Inu Investors Suffer Losses

In the last year alone, the Shiba Inu price has declined by more than 60% to eliminate most of the recovery from 2023-2024. As a result, investors have been nursing losses, with over 65% of investors seeing losses already. In contrast, 32% are seeing some profit, while 3% are struggling at breakeven prices.

IntoTheBlock’s data shows that at the current price, only 98.2 trillion SHIB, worth $1.12 billion bought by investors is seeing any profit. This is in comparison to the 878.5 trillion SHIB, worth $9.99 billion, that are current nursing losses. Lastly, the amount of SHIB sitting at breakeven is only 8.14 trillion SHIB, worth $92.59 million.

Historically, the profitability has fluctuated wildly as bull and bear markets have come and gone. After the 2021 bear market which saw the highest levels of profitability in October, SHIB holders have had a hard time keeping up profitability. Throughout 2022 and 2023, profitability remained low, well into 2024 before a turn in the market.

By December 2024, profitability reached over 72% again as the Shiba Inu price looked like it was surging toward new all-time highs. However, 2025 has come with a different narrative with profitability tanking once again. Currently, in April 2025, profitability is now sitting at levels not seen since February 2024.

When it comes to the bullish versus bearish narrative, the bulls continue to dominate despite the sell-offs. Expectations remain that the Shiba Inu price would bottom soon and that a rally would follow shortly after.

Why A SHIB Price Recovery Could Happen

Large Shiba Inu transactions have seen a spike in the last few days amid the market downturn. According to IntoTheBlock, large transaction volumes rose over 100% between Sunday and Monday, and have continued to rise.

On the one hand, this could suggest that whales were part of the selling spree that contributed to the SHIB price crash. However, it could also mean that interest is returning for the meme coin, and if this participation turns into buying pressure, then it could lead to a recovery for SHIB.

Behind Changxin Technology, Stands a Group of A-Share Companies

Changxin Technology, a leading Chinese DRAM (Dynamic Random Access Memory) manufacturer, has passed the review by the STAR Market listing committee, moving closer to an IPO. The company, seeking to raise 29.5 billion yuan, is the first to utilize the new "pre-review mechanism" on the STAR Market, expediting its approval process within five months. As China's largest and most technologically advanced integrated DRAM company, Changxin has achieved mass production of mainstream DDR5 and LPDDR5X products. It holds the fourth-largest global market share and ranks first in China, though it still trails behind industry leaders Samsung, SK Hynix, and Micron in areas like HBM technology. The company reported its first annual profit in 2025, with net profit surging to 24.762 billion yuan in Q1 2026, driven by booming AI-related demand. The IPO has drawn significant market attention due to Changxin's extensive and prestigious shareholder base. This includes state-backed funds like the National Integrated Circuit Industry Investment Fund II, industrial partner GigaDevice, internet giants (Xiaomi, Alibaba, Tencent), and several securities firms and A-share listed companies such as InfoMotion, Shangfeng Cement, and Hefei Urban Construction, which stand to benefit from the listing. The company's founder, Zhu Yiming, a pivotal figure in China's semiconductor industry who also founded GigaDevice, has committed to an unprecedented long-term lock-up of his shares and a massive personal equity incentive plan worth an estimated over 20 billion yuan for employees, excluding himself, upon listing.

When Vitalik Stops Blogging to Write Sci-Fi

Vitalik Buterin, founder of Ethereum, has announced a pause in his long-form technical blogging to instead write a science fiction novel exploring decentralized governance. The story, set in a fictional nation called Veridia, follows a member of a governance body that uses complex systems like quadratic voting, privacy-preserving audits, and AI-assisted decision-making to guide society through incentive structures rather than outright bans. This creative shift comes at a pivotal moment for the Ethereum ecosystem. The Ethereum Foundation has seen significant internal upheaval in 2026, with at least nine core contributors, including key protocol leaders, departing. Just days before his announcement, Vitalik published a statement addressing this turbulence, framing the Foundation as a "smaller ship" that will now focus on core principles like censorship resistance and security, while moving from a growth-oriented to a sustainability-focused organization. The novel's themes directly mirror Vitalik's long-standing technical interests in governance mechanisms. Community reactions are mixed: some see it as a thoughtful exploration of ideas through narrative, while others view the timing—amidst core team departures and a significant drop in ETH's price—as pointedly symbolic. The move is also interpreted as a personal transition, signaling Vitalik's evolving role from a central executive figure to one of many decentralized thought leaders within the Ethereum ecosystem.
