**The $1,000 SHIB Story: Why Past Gains Don't Equal Future Returns**
Five years ago, a $1,000 SHIB bet would've turned into $170M today — sounds insane, right? Here's the thing: those 17,000,000% gains were almost purely speculation-driven, fueled by memes and celebrity shoutouts rather than actual utility or fundamentals.
SHIB launched at $0.000000000056 and now trades around $0.0000095. But before you FOMO in, consider this — the token largely lacks real-world adoption compared to Bitcoin or Ethereum. Its value is perception-based, not concrete.
The harsh truth? Chasing yesterday's moonshots
