Factors that make Shiba Inu and Dogecoin popular with Indian investors.As per WazirX CEO Nischal Shetty, “the growth of Shiba Inu portrays the power of being a community-driven project. In recent months, Shiba Inu has been in the news for being listed on more exchanges, which has increased its liquidity and access to the token.”
Apart from that, another reason that has made Shiba Inu and Dogecoin immensely popular among Indian investors is the fact that these currencies have often been tweeted by leading industrialists and global leaders like Elon Musk.
Musk’s occasional tweets on Doge have made a strong impact on its pricing, and his recent tweet of owning Doge along with Bitcoin and Ethereum has compelled many global investors to invest in Dogecoin.
