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.
