Can Shiba Inu (SHIB) or Pepe Coin (PEPE) Ever Reach $1? This Altcoin Priced Under 2 Cents Is Sure Too

Source Cryptopolitan

January has kicked off with a bang, and while Bitcoin itself has not really done that much in the new year, Altcoins have sprinted ahead. Altcoin season is here, the time when “all coins not bitcoin”, rake in the yields. Meme coin giants Shiba Inu and Pepe Coin have had diverging journeys so far this year, but supporters of both tokens claim their meme coin could go to $1.00. Is this a dream too far? While worth investigating, the new altcoin Remittix’s journey to $1.00 looks guaranteed. Read on.

Remittix (RTX): PayFi token headed to a dollar valuation

Remittix has rapidly risen through the ranks establishing itself as the market leading presale. With over $1.6 million raised in just 8 days Remittix’s token price has risen to $0.0185, indicating a 23% return for those who purchased the RTX token the day its ICO launched. Analysts are already predicting a $1.00 valuation for this altcoin. That’s a 5550% increase. But why are analysts so optimistic?  

Remittix will change the way we trade. It is that simple. Remittix is an altcoin that allows its users to make near-instant crypto-to-fiat bank deposits to almost any account in the world. Remittix supports over 30 fiat currencies and allows its users the speed, convenience, and low fees of crypto to make cross-border payments that usually take days to complete and at exorbitant costs.  

XRP has been promising this for years, but Remittix is delivering. The use case for Remittix is enormous, and it will democratize trade like nothing has done before. Analysts predicting a $1.00 price for this new altcoin might actually be aiming low! 

Shiba Inu (SHIB): Second-ranked meme coin celebrates 2025 with a bang

In the first four days of 2025, Shiba Inu is already up 10%. The number 2 ranked meme coin means business, but its dreams of growing to a dollar are a bridge way too far. There are still four zeroes after the decimal point in the Shiba Inu price, and since Shiba is a deflationary token with a fixed supply (which is a good thing!), any price increase must correlate with an increase in market cap.  

For Shiba to shed its zeroes and hit a dollar, it must grow 10,000x. As should its market cap. At $14 billion, increasing its market cap by a factor of ten thousand would mean Shiba Inu will be worth more than the planet’s entire monetary supply. Shiba Inu’s dream of growing into a dollar is just that: a dream. 

Pepe Coin (PEPE): Same maths, different meme coin

Pepe has the same dreams as Shiba to make it to $1.00 but faces the same mathematical and fiscal realities. Pepe Coin is priced very close to Shiba, and the parallels are apparent. However, People Coin’s market cap is about half of Shiba’s, but that does not mean Pepe’s dream is achievable.

Pepe is already the altcoin responsible for the highest yields we’ve ever seen and has shed six of its post-decimal zeroes. Expecting anything more from Pepe Coin would be ridiculous. Even in the new year, where most altcoins have performed exceptionally, Pepe is down 3%. 

Conclusion

It’s monetarily impossible for meme coins Pepe and Shiba Inu to make it to the one-dollar mark. However, for PayFi altcoin Remittix, the $1.00 is the first milestone on a journey to incredible growth and should make an appearance in any well-balanced crypto portfolio. 

With a market leading ICO which has rallied over $1.6 million in rapid fashion, Remittix is quickly gearing up to be the hottest crypto in 2025 with investors continuously gobbling up the RTX token!Discover the future of PayFi with Remittix by checking out their presale here:
