As the year 2025 rounds off, the Shiba Inu community is zeroing in on potential key developments for the $SHIB project.
Lucie, a Shiba Inu team member, revealed in a recent tweet that NYSE Arca has filed the rule change for the T. Rowe Price Active Crypto ETF, which contains $SHIB. A filing for a rule change might speed up the T. Rowe crypto ETF launch.
Lucie implies Shiba Inu's inclusion in the crypto ETF to mean that regulated products are starting to treat $SHIB as part of the core crypto basket.
$SHIB just went god-mode!

This week, Shiba Inu mini-app launched on TokenPlay AI. The move represents $SHIB plugged directly into AI infrastructure, running on the Token OS that turns any token into an intelligent, monetizable mini-app.
Coinbase will launch Shiba Inu perpetual style futures in the U.S. on Dec. 12, with 24/7 trading for its monthly futures to debut Dec. 5.
In December as well, work progresses on Zama's implementation of FHE for Shibarium with the focus to bring full on-chain privacy and confidential smart contracts on Shibarium and Bone by the end of Q2, 2026.
Shiba Inu December rally?
At the time of writing, $SHIB was down 4.14% in the last 24 hours to $0.00000849 and is down 15.17% so far in November. With Shiba Inu eyeing its third consecutive red month in Q4, expectations remain for a relief rally in 2025's last month.
Technical and historical trends indicate that Shiba Inu saw a sudden sharp rally after a prolonged period of decline, in March 2024 for instance, when $SHIB rallied 144%.
Shiba Inu's price closed its first red October since its inception, flipping an age-long historical narrative. While Shiba Inu has mostly had red Decembers with the exception of the year 2023, the historical narrative shift might support a green December this time.
The appearance of Shiba Inu's first ever weekly cross might foreshadow a bottom for $SHIB's price in the days ahead. That said, Shiba Inu would need to rise about 65% from its current price in order to achieve a positive 2025 close.
