Wondering why Shiba Inu missed out on some recent cryptocurrency lists? While still a popular meme coin, SHIB has faced challenges that impacted its rankings. While 66.15 million SHIB tokens have been burnt in the last seven days to reduce circulation, and positive news showed Binance revealing it was the third-most-popular cryptocurrency in 2025 (trailing only Bitcoin), Shiba Inu has dropped out of the top 15 cryptocurrencies by market cap.

One reason SHIB might be absent from certain lists is its price volatility. The meme token has lost nearly half its value, showcasing the unpredictable nature of crypto assets. Factors that may have bolstered other cryptocurrencies simply didn\'t aid Shiba Inu\'s price recovery. Key releases like Shibarium, initially expected to drastically scale the network, haven\'t delivered the anticipated boost.

Meanwhile, other coins are gaining traction. For example, NFTs on the XRP Ledger and the developments in the ongoing lawsuit against the SEC were talking points about the sixth-largest crypto, demonstrating real-world utility and overcoming regulatory hurdles. These concrete developments often give other cryptos an edge in rankings.

Even Robinhood\'s reticence to list SHIBA INU, similar to Coinbase\'s earlier hesitation, may have inadvertently contributed to SHIB\'s absence on certain lists. This meant it potentially missed out on millions of dollars in revenue. This prompted investors to explore other options. While some users have experienced temporary issues, like reports of "My shib has gone missing from Easycrypto.com in New Zealand," these are usually resolved quickly.

Ultimately, a combination of market volatility, unmet expectations regarding scaling solutions, and potentially limited accessibility on major exchanges contributed to Shiba Inu\'s exclusion from some recent crypto rankings. Keep an eye on future developments to see if SHIB can regain its former position.
