A cryptocurrency investor who purchased Shiba Inu during its initial days revealed that he deeply regrets selling the token early. The investor had purchased $2,000 worth of SHIB in January 2021 a few weeks before it started to rally. SHIB was trading at $0.000000000077295 (10 zeroes) at that time but little did the investor know that the token would quickly delete six ‘zeroes’ within 10 months.

An investment of $2,000 got the user to accumulate 25,874,894,883,239 (25 trillion tokens) at that time in January 2021. The investor revealed that when SHIB dropped in price the next few days after his purchase, he panicked and sold all the tokens for a loss.
In his defense, SHIB was among the worst-performing cryptocurrencies in 2020 and the investor didn’t want to risk his money. Therefore, he was fearful and pulled out assuming, that his investment could tank and never recover. For context, SHIB’s price value dropped at a percentage of a $100 investment dropping to $2 in two months.
