Dogecoin And Shiba Inu Enjoy Sharp Uptrend

The whole crypto market has seen some uplift today after what has been several weeks of downwards movement for many of the big coins.

Among the top cryptos, however, two coins immediately standout in their gains, and those being Dogecoin (DOGE) and Shiba Inu (SHIB).

The dog memecoins have seen price uplifts of around 15% since yesterday. Though, both DOGE and SHIB are still in the red over the last month. Nonetheless, this pump can be an important step towards recovery.

At the time of writing, Dogecoin’s price floats around $0.1722, up 10% over the last seven days. The below chart shows the trend in the price of the crypto over the last five days.

The reason behind SHIB’s pump looks to be the rumor that Robinhood might be adding the crypto to its listings as early as next month (February).

Here is the source of the rumor, a tweet from ZeroHedge:

The Shiba Inu community has been fighting hard to get the platform to accept the memecoin for a while now. So far, the petition on change.org has secured the signature of more than 555k SHIB supporters.

Adoption of both SHIB and DOGE has gained some momentum over the past few months as major exchanges and platforms have started dealing in the memecoins.

Just last month, the tech retailer giant Newegg began accepting Shiba Inu as a possible payment option. The store had already started accepting Dogecoin a while back.
