A popular community figure has doubled down on his long-term bullish outlook for Shiba Inu, calling the token a “generational opportunity.”
Luis Delgado, a self-acclaimed world-renowned crypto expert, made this bold claim while responding to a recent tweet from trading platform Crypto.com. The exchange’s post featured a Shiba Inu mascot alongside the caption “Generational Woof.”
Holding Shiba Inu Represents a Generational Opportunity
Interestingly, Delgado interpreted the post as aligning with the broader Shiba Inu community’s belief that SHIB carries long-term, transformative potential. Consequently, he stressed that holding Shiba Inu represents a generational opportunity.
This characterization indicates that Delgado believes SHIB could deliver substantial long-term returns—one that investors may one day look back on as a “once-in-a-generation” opportunity. In his view, Shiba Inu has the capacity to grow significantly more valuable over time.

Moreover, his comment reinforces the strong conviction among SHIB advocates that the project’s expanding ecosystem, development roadmap, and community momentum could generate outsized gains for committed investors across upcoming market cycles.
Delgado Sees SHIB Hitting $0.01
Delgado, in particular, has repeatedly expressed confidence that Shiba Inu can ultimately achieve the highly anticipated $0.01 milestone. He consistently dismisses critics who call the one-cent target impossible, asserting that he has witnessed the “impossible” happen in crypto before. Hence, he sees no reason SHIB’s path to $0.01 should be any different.
At the current price of $0.000008484, Shiba Inu would need to surge by 117,768% to reach the $0.01 target. To illustrate the scale of this potential rally, an investor holding 100 million SHIB, worth about $848 today, would see that stash grow to $1 million if SHIB ever hits one cent.
Likewise, holders of 200 million or 500 million tokens would see their portfolios jump to $2 million and $5 million, respectively. For many investors, gains of this magnitude represent life-changing upside often described as generational wealth.
Is $0.01 Feasible?
However, the prospect of Shiba Inu reaching $0.01 remains a significant challenge. The token’s performance this year has been far from impressive as SHIB has suffered a steep decline from its January 1 opening price.
For context, SHIB entered 2025 on the back of gains from December 2024, when it briefly climbed to around $0.00003329. Although it lost some of that momentum, SHIB began the year at $0.00002115.
Since then, the token has fallen sharply and now trades at $0.000008484, a drop of 59.88% from its January 1 opening price. This decline highlights the difficulty of achieving the widely discussed one-cent goal and delivering generational wealth to investors.
Moreover, reaching $0.01 would push Shiba Inu’s market capitalization to roughly $5.89 trillion — something critics call unrealistic for a meme coin.
