I took a look at the forecasts for Shiba Inu for the end of Q1 2026, and honestly, it's a bit chaotic. The token started the year on a rather optimistic note, but the momentum quickly fizzled out. In January, SHIB even erased a zero and climbed to $0.00001 on January 5th, which gave quite a bit of hope. Unfortunately, selling pressure returned quickly and wiped out most of those gains.

Now, with the market's persistent weakness, analysts are wondering where the price might stabilize before the end of the quarter. Several analysis platforms provide interesting ranges. Changelly predicts that SHIB could be between $0.00000690 and $0.00000696, representing a 16 to 17% increase from current levels. CoinCodex is a bit more optimistic with a range of $0.000006576 to $0.000007181, a potential increase of 9 to 21%.

What intrigues me even more is that analysts propose different scenarios for Shiba Inu. In a bearish case, the token could drop to $0.0000053–$0.0000058 if selling intensifies. In a neutral scenario, we would see consolidation between $0.0000060 and $0.0000070. And if the bullish momentum resumes, we could see a move toward $0.0000075–$0.0000090.

Historically, SHIB's performance in the first quarter has been quite unpredictable. In 2022, it fell by 22.6%, but in 2023, it rebounded with a 34.3% increase. The year 2024 was spectacular with a 199.4% gain, while 2025 saw a loss of 41.4%. This quarter already starts negatively with a 14% decline, so we are really uncertain about the short-term direction.
