Even Ethereum-Level Adoption Won’t Take Shiba Inu (SHIB) to $0.01, Here's the Better Meme Coin to Buy in 2025

Written By : Market Trends

Right now, Shiba Inu (SHIB) is trading at about $0.00001243, holding steady as traders watch to see if the market’s next move will lift it higher or push it back down.

And as for Little Pepe (LILPEPE), it’s in presale at $0.0022 (Stage 13) with strong momentum behind it. The speculative models suggest that LILPEPE could see gains of up to 12,409% if its ecosystem succeeds. That projection opens eyes. In this piece, we’ll walk through why even Ethereum-level adoption might fail to push SHIB to $0.01, and why Little Pepe feels like a more logical meme coin bet going into 2025.

The Math That Kills SHIB’s One-Cent Dream

People often talk about SHIB hitting $0.01 as if it’s just a matter of community chants and more adoption. But even if SHIB got “Ethereum status,” the massive supply drags it down. Multiply Ethereum’s market cap by adoption parity, divide by SHIB’s circulating tokens (589 trillion), and the implied per-token level lands far below $0.01.

In fact, even bullish models don’t place SHIB higher than maybe $0.000015 in many scenarios. At the time of writing, SHIB is seeing resistance near $0.0000135 according to CoinMarketCap forecasts. That’s a long way from $0.01. To elevate SHIB to one cent, the world would need to absorb trillions of new value, which is unrealistic in the foreseeable timeframe. SHIB does have support mechanisms, including burning protocols, Shibarium Layer 2, and community projects. However, these are marginal offsets against the magnitude of supply. In short, the path to $0.01 demands more than hype. It demands rewriting fundamental economics.

SHIB’s Real Performance Now

Currently, SHIB is trading at around $0.00001243, exhibiting a slight decline over the past day, according to data from CoinMarketCap. Some investors are hedging into alt meme coins or next-gen meme Layer-2 plays. That brings us to Little Pepe.

Why Little Pepe (LILPEPE) Shines Brighter (not just hype)

First, Little Pepe is more than a token. That means low fees, fast confirmation, and the capacity to support meme projects, NFTs, launchpads, and more, without the congestion that often strangles many meme trades. At the time of writing, LILPEPE is in presale Stage 13 at $0.0022. The presale has already raised over $26 million toward a $28.775 million goal and sold a large portion of its tokens. Early investors from Stage 1 are showing 120% paper gains. Current buyers at $0.0022 could see a 36.36% upside if the price lists at $0.0030. Some speculative projections go even further, estimating multiples in the thousands (e.g., 12,409 %) under ideal adoption conditions.

The project also boasts a CertiK audit, anti-sniper measures, transparent tokenomics, and a listing on CoinMarketCap. Those elements transform it from “just another meme” into something that can be argued to have infrastructure behind it. Search trends also tell a story: in 2025, LILPEPE queries surpassed those of SHIB and PEPE in meme coin interest. That social momentum matters in a space driven by sentiment.

Wrap up: Balancing Hope With Logic.

SHIB will remain a legacy meme coin with moderate upside, but it is unlikely to surpass $0.01 without a significant shift in the cryptocurrency market size. Meanwhile, the projected 12,409% upside for LILPEPE is not a promise, but a more feasible target given its design, momentum, and ecosystem ambitions.

If you’re considering where to allocate in the meme coin space, Little Pepe offers a new frontier, a play that respects technical limits, builds for scale, and still captures the energy that draws people to meme assets in the first place. The presale is still open, although it is filling up quickly.
