A descending channel pattern appears when price moves between two downward-sloping parallel trendlines, indicating a consistent series of lower highs and lower lows.

If SHIB confirms a breakout above the upper boundary of this channel, the price may rise by approximately 45% from the current level of $0.00001212, targeting a move toward $0.00001750.
The 50-period Exponential Moving Average (EMA), currently at $0.00001242, acts as dynamic resistance. A strong breakout above this EMA, paired with volume increase, could trigger a bullish reversal and initiate the upward move.
The price has already rebounded from the lower boundary of the channel. This reaction, combined with the narrowing structure, often precedes a breakout attempt. If buying pressure continues, SHIB may reach the projected target in the coming sessions.
The 4-hour Relative Strength Index (RSI) for SHIBA INU (SHIB/USD) stands at 46.50, with the RSI-based moving average at 41.47.

The Relative Strength Index is a momentum indicator that measures the speed and change of price movements on a scale from 0 to 100.
An RSI reading near 50 indicates neutral momentum, meaning SHIB is neither overbought (above 70) nor oversold (below 30). However, the RSI line crossing above its moving average suggests a slight shift toward bullish momentum.
If the RSI continues rising and crosses the 50 level with strong price support, this could strengthen the case for an upside breakout from the descending channel seen in the price chart. This momentum shift may support the projected 45% price increase toward $0.00001750.

The Stochastic Momentum Index is a refined version of the Stochastic Oscillator that tracks momentum relative to price range, often used to spot trend shifts and reversals.

If this momentum continues and both lines move toward the upper range (above 40), it would align with the breakout setup seen in the price and RSI charts. Together, these indicators support the case for a possible 45% move toward $0.00001750.

The Ichimoku Cloud, or Ichimoku Kinko Hyo, is a multi-component indicator that provides trend direction, momentum, and support/resistance levels at a glance. It includes the cloud (Kumo), conversion line, base line, lagging span, and leading span.
Currently, SHIB trades just below the cloud, which signals bearish pressure. However, recent “Strong Bullish” and “Weak Bullish” signals suggest growing upward momentum. The price is approaching the lower boundary of the cloud (around $0.00001215), which acts as a dynamic resistance level.
If SHIB breaks above the cloud and holds above $0.00001250, it could flip the trend into a bullish phase. Combined with other indicators like RSI, Stochastic Momentum Index, and Directional Movement Index, this setup adds strength to the potential 45% breakout toward $0.00001750.
Shiba Inu Launches Shib Alpha Layer to Upgrade Rollup Infrastructure
On June 15, the Shiba Inu team launched Shib Alpha Layer, a beta version rollup abstraction stack. Built in partnership with ElderLabs, the system settles on Shibarium and aims to unify multiple RollApps into one fast and scalable layer.
The new upgrade removes the need for users to manage multiple bridges or wallets. Instead, it delivers a single-chain interface that streamlines interactions across dozens of rollups. SHIB developer Kaal Dhairya shared the system’s key features in a recent post on X.
With Shib Alpha Layer, users interact with one environment while the underlying RollApps remain abstracted. This structure ensures ultra-fast transactions and near-instant finality. The system also brings Web2-level responsiveness to decentralized applications.
Multi-Token Fees and Privacy Features Integrated
Shib Alpha Layer enables multi-gas token payments, allowing users to pay transaction fees in various tokens. Privacy is also a core feature. It includes FHE (Fully Homomorphic Encryption) capabilities, supporting ZAMA FHE integration for encrypted smart contract execution when needed.
The system also includes modular ShibOS services. Users can plug in needed modules and leave out unnecessary ones, customizing their stack for specific use cases.
Planned updates include instant bridging and native interoperability, which will let liquidity move freely between RollApps. All RollApps will function as Layer 3 solutions on top of Shibarium, inheriting its security and expanding SHIB’s utility.
The Shib Alpha Layer positions Shibarium as the settlement layer for all integrated RollApps. Each app can operate with built-in security and enhanced features while remaining part of the Shiba Inu ecosystem.
