Can SHIB reach 1 dollar? Stop dreaming, let me do the math for you.

Someone asked if SHIB2026 can reach 1 dollar. Let's do the math. The current price of SHIB is 0.000008 dollars, with a circulation of 589.2 billion coins, so it needs to rise 12.5 million times to reach 1 dollar. Sounds crazy, right? It did happen in 2021 – invested 3 bucks and made a million in a year.

But this is the problem:

**No real application scenario** — Unlike BTC (digital gold) and XRP (cross-border payments), SHIB is just a speculative product. The community wants to raise the price by burning tokens, which sounds reasonable, but the reality is harsh.

**The Supply Trap** — To get SHIB to 1 dollar, 99.99998% of the tokens need to be burned, leaving only 4.8 billion. The problem is: even if that is successful, the coins in your hands will also decrease by 99.99998%, yielding zero profit. Moreover, at the current burn rate (an average of 9.42 million tokens per month), it would take 520,000 years to achieve. Your great-great-great... grandchildren might not even see that day.

**Market Cap Can't Hold Up** — For SHIB to reach 1 dollar, the market cap would need to reach 589 trillion dollars, while the global GDP is only 111 trillion, and the S&P 500 combined is just 57 trillion. This number is absurd.

So rather than waiting for SHIB to become a legend, it's better to look at projects that have real fundamentals.
