Buy SHIBA INU (SHIB) at Lowest Price

What is SHIBA INU Coin

Shiba Inu Coin is a meme coin, a term popularized in the last couple of years. On a more technical note, Shiba is an Ethereum-based alternative to Dogecoin. The two coins are compared so frequently that the media even dubbed SHIB as the ‘Dogecoin killer’. Without focusing on Shiba’s rival, let’s take a look at Shiba Inu as a separate, independent entity.

Recently, SHIB, LEASH, and BONE collaborated to build ShibaSwap, which is advertised as the next evolution in DeFi. The platform gives access to NFTs and extra features like portfolio trackers.

Similar to Bitcoin, the founder of Shiba Inu is some under a pseudonym. The mysterious founder is known by the name Ryoshi, and it seems like the disclosure of their identity is not coming any time soon. Ryoshi’s latest interaction with the community was on May 29. This was a post where they reiterated that they are not important and any efforts to unmask their identity would be underwhelming.

As a meme coin, Shiba Inu gained notoriety thanks to the Internet. For instance, its social media mentions saw a growth rate of 16,000% throughout 2021. This resulted in a market cap of over $15 billion and the #14 rank by the beginning of 2022.

FAQ

How is the price of SHIB determined?

The price of any coin is affected by supply and demand. But since SHIB doesn’t have a limited total supply, it relies on ever-growing demand. For example, SHIB holders are excited about some new projects within the community, witnessing how it causes the coin to gain momentum. One of the projects is called Shibarium, developed by Unification. Once it launches, SHIB tokens will be migrated to a new blockchain/layer-2 solution. With transaction fees lowered, Shiba Inu may find more popularity as a result.

Other factors worth mentioning are speculative action (how many people are investing/trading, including retail and institutional investors), media attention (such as when a prominent figure supports cryptos publicly), and current affairs (while Shiba Inu is completely digital, it’s still impacted by real-world events).

Can you buy SHIB without KYC on Changelly?

When you buy crypto on Changelly, the transactions on the fiat side are actually processed by third-party payment vendors. That is why the requirement of KYC verification ultimately depends on what service you use for payments. Check with your fiat provider or read instructions on the exchange window just before the transaction.

Can I buy less than 1 SHIB?

Shiba Inu, although very popular, has a very low value. While it’s absolutely reasonable to exchange a fraction of BTC, going lower than one SHIB coin is just not doable. Your funds would just be overshadowed by the network fee.

It’s unlikely that you'll be able to buy less than 1 SHIB any time soon. But you should still keep up-to-date with the market in case something major happens.

What are the fees to buy SHIB?

The payment process of buying SHIB is associated with two types of fees - the trading platform fee and the network fee. The platform fee is charged as a percentage of a transaction. When you look at the list of offers, the fees will already be calculated, so there is no need to do anything yourself. If you’re interested in approximate values, a total fee by Moonpay + Changelly is 7.5%, and Indacoin + Changelly totals 10%.

The network fee is much simpler. It’s a fixed amount of 1,060,520.36 SHIB, regardless of how much you buy.

Where can I store SHIB?

Clearly, you buy Shiba Inu on cryptocurrency exchanges, but what do you do afterward? If you’re thinking of leaving it on the exchange, it’s better not to. Move your coins out of the platform to a crypto wallet. The easiest option is to use a hot (or digital) wallet. Alternatively, you can store SHIB on a physical crypto storage device.

What is the best SHIB wallet?

The Shiba Inu community uses a variety of different wallets, so it’s hard to say which one is the best. But to highlight some of the most recognizable names, we would mention Coinomi, ZenGo, Coinbase, and Atomic Wallet. If you want to explore other digital wallets, we feature other platforms on our list of partners, available on the Changelly website.

In case you’re a big fan of hardware wallets, which is a reasonable choice, SHIB is supported by Ledger and Exodus. These are industry giants that have greatly improved their security and UX over the years.

How to cash out SHIB?

Although you can find cryptocurrency ATMs in some cities, their selection is incredibly limited. The best way to turn SHIB into cash is to first exchange it for fiat digitally. For this, you will need a Changelly account and our ‘Sell’ tab. Enter the details of your transaction, including your bank details, and wait until the funds arrive at your bank account.

Once you have your virtual fiat, the final step will be to withdraw cash from a regular ATM. This should take you mere seconds.

Can I buy SHIB with PayPal?

Wondering how to buy shiba coin with PayPal? Unfortunately, Shiba Inu Coin is not supported by PayPal. The only cryptocurrencies that you can buy or sell through your PayPal account are Bitcoin, Ethereum, Bitcoin Cash, and Litecoin. You can also hold these assets and use them for payments on other websites. There is a restriction, though - you can only hold the cryptos that you purchased yourself on PayPal. Transfers from other services or even other PayPal users are not supported.

While there are no announcements of upcoming additions, there is a chance SHIB will be added at some point in the future.

Can I purchase Shiba Inu with credit card?
