Investor Misses Out on $70 Million Payday After Selling Shiba Inu Tokens Too Early

  • A man in Dubai bought $4,000 worth of Shiba Inu tokens in August 2020, accumulating nearly 5 trillion tokens.

  • The tokens performed poorly in 2020 so he sold them by year end for about the same $4,000.

  • If he had held the tokens for just 10 more months, they would have been worth $70 million at the peak.

  • The investor missed out on huge gains by not holding the tokens long term.

  • Now it would cost over $36 million to accumulate the same 5 trillion Shiba Inu tokens.
