Growth was also seen on the $SHIB spot market, where the trading volume reached $145.5 million with growth of 57.49%. The total trading volume of the Shiba Inu token can be equated to $291.4 million, which brings the turnover to market cap ratio to 3.75% - a normal and not overheated level of trading activity.
Is big move brewing for Shiba Inu ($SHIB) price?
Of course, volume without the context of price action does not provide a complete picture of the asset.
Speaking of $SHIB's price performance, one can note the lower volatility with which the token has been quoted over the last three weeks, as the amplitude of its action did not exceed 2.3% during this period.

This also explains why the trading volume was so suppressed before today, as even after a 75% average increase on the derivatives and spot markets, its trading activity reached normal levels.
