In November 2021, Bitcoin staged the best move in its history, hitting its splendid peak. During this process, almost all altcoins followed Bitcoin to reach their ATH levels. One altcoin, in particular, stood out due to its unique structure. Following the path laid by Dogecoin, Shiba Inu managed to break away from its competitors and attract all attention, making its investors happy.
