Shiba Inu was launched on August 1, 2020, and in two months it will celebrate its fifth anniversary. On the other hand, when Shiba Inu entered the cryptocurrency market, Bitcoin had already existed for more than a decade. Both cryptocurrencies have a large fan base and similarly believe that their value can soar.
Although the accumulation cost of Bitcoin is high now, Shiba Inu's price is less than 1 cent and easily accessible. A typical investor can buy millions of SHIB tokens for just $1,000, whereas at this price point, only a tiny fraction of BTC is available for purchase.
Highest returns over five years: Shiba Inu or Bitcoin
Compared to Bitcoin, Shiba Inu achieved the highest returns over the past five years. SHIB turned early investors into millionaires from 2020 to 2025, while BTC, despite generating impressive returns, failed to sustain wealth for generations.
Five years ago in 2020, Shiba Inu (SHIB) was trading at $0.00000000097 (nine zeros), while Bitcoin was priced at $9,750. Five years later in 2025, SHIB's price is $0.0000126, while BTC's price hovers around $104,700.
Objectively speaking, the price of Shiba Inu skyrocketed by 1,300,000% (1.3 million%) over five years. Meanwhile, according to TradingView data, Bitcoin's price increased by 970% during the same period.
Therefore, an investment of $1,000 in Shiba Inu from 2020 to 2025 could potentially turn into $13,001,000 (13 million dollars). During the same period, Bitcoin turned a $1,000 investment into $10,700.
Although both types of investments have high returns, Shiba Inu has created wealth for a generation, while Bitcoin has brought decent returns. With SHIB, life will change completely, and you won’t have to work a day to make money. The same $1,000 in BTC could have brought substantial returns in 2020, but you still had to work to earn money.
