It is very unfortunate for those who buy Shiba Inu at peak prices because judging from the current market conditions, I think it is still very difficult for Shiba Inu to increase and match the peak prices achieved by Shiba Inu in the past. So some of the Shiba Inu buyers in the past still need patience to wait for that to happen if they don't want to sell at a loss at this time.
Those who bought at peak price have two options. Sell to minimize the possible more losses or hodl until the market recovers. With the current market sentiment, I think it will take a while before the price of SHIB break their ATH unless some group does a coordinated hype and at the same time pump on the token. I wouldn't say that it is impossible to go up since DOGE had shown us that it is possible. So those ATH buyers must have patience since it is possible that SHIB might break their ATH when the time comes.
it will take a long time since alot shiba whales quit from this project since robin hood announcement. investors in shiba maybe dominate by retail investors, and too pumped it back to ATH i am believe its difficult thing. maybe need more trigger to return shiba back to ATH beside market sentiment and condition.
