Blockchain security and analytics platform CertiK released its Weekly Project Spotlight episode Thursday, focusing on SHIB to bring the community up to speed with the latest on-chain metrics and social outlook regarding the meme coin.
According to CertiK, its Skynet Social Analysis module revealed some promising details on the Social Sentiment Index of SHIB. Shiba Inu’s Social Sentiment Index has an encouraging score of 79%, indicating a mostly positive outlook on the asset.

Possible Reasons Behind SHIB’s Promising Metrics
Several developments surrounding the Shiba Inu project of late have possibly contributed to the asset’s promising metrics, including the uptick in social sentiments. The team behind the Shiba Inu Metaverse project recently revealed a second concept art for the Tech Trench hub. This suggests that the project is progressing quite well.
Additionally, Lithuania-based crypto payments processor CoinGate recently disclosed that SHIB has secured the 12th position on CoinGate’s most popular payment methods list a year after the platform integrated the meme coin, indicating a growing adoption rate for the asset on CoinGate.
Notably, Crypto.com’s balance sheets were recently disclosed by the exchange, with a revelation that has been received well by the SHIB community. The Singapore-based exchange holds over 20% of its $2.4B net worth in SHIB, making the meme coin the second largest asset on its reserves, only behind bitcoin (BTC).
Meanwhile, amidst these promising developments, SHIB appears to be cooking up some comeback against the bears, scooping in a 0.60% gain in the past 24 hours to trade at $0.00000196 as of press time.
