Shiba Inu continues to gain popularity on the WazirX trading platform.
In its end-of-year report, WazirX indicated that 27% of first-time crypto buyers on the platform bought Shiba Inu, while men between the ages of 26 and 40 traded 50% of all SHIB tokens "moved" on the platform. Also, Shiba Inu was among the top tokens traded on the crypto exchange.
SHIB ranks as the 16th largest cryptocurrency, with a market cap of $4.9 billion, according to data from CoinMarketCap, and currently trades at $0.000009.
