As the crypto bull market rolls around once more, top meme coins Dogecoin and Shiba Inu have started vying for the position of best performer once again. The year 2024, despite only being three months in, has already been incredibly interesting in this regard as both meme coins rally to new yearly highs.

隨著加密貨幣多頭市場再次來臨，頂級迷因幣狗狗幣和柴犬再次開始爭奪表現最佳的位置。 2024 年儘管只有三個月的時間，但在這方面已經非常有趣，因為這兩種模因幣都漲至年度新高。

Dogecoin Vs. Shiba Inu Price Performance

Taking the year 2024 into account, it seems that Shiba Inu is finally winning the top meme coin battle against Dogecoin. A comparison of prices at the start of the year and now shows that Dogecoin has performed poorly compared to Shiba Inu.

狗狗幣對比。柴犬價格表現考慮到 2024 年，柴犬似乎終於贏得了與狗狗幣的頂級迷因幣之戰。年初和現在的價格比較表明，與柴犬相比，狗狗幣的表現較差。

To put this in perspective, the Shiba Inu price started out the year around $0.000009 and then surged more than 400% in March to $0.000044. The price has since retraced since this and returned to the $0.000027 level where it is currently trading now, still a more than 150% increase from where it started the year.

In comparison, the Dogecoin price started 2024 at around $0.08 and then rallied to $0.2 in March. This is less than a 300% increase in the same time period in comparison to SHIB. Then, just like SHIB, the DOGE price has retraced some of its gains and is now trading at $0.15, which is around a 100% increase from where it began the year.

相比之下，狗狗幣的價格從 2024 年開始約為 0.08 美元，然後在 3 月反彈至 0.2 美元。與 SHIB 相比，同期增幅還不到 300%。然後，就像 SHIB 一樣，DOGE 價格回吐了部分漲幅，目前交易價格為 0.15 美元，較年初上漲約 100%。

However, when it comes to holding up during a downtrend, DOGE has proven to be the better performer. This is because while Shiba Inu has seen its price fall around 50% from its March highs, the DOGE price has only seen a 25% decline. This suggests that Shiba Inu is the much more volatile option, thus making it more likely to move up faster than Dogecoin. But it also means that the price of SHIB is more likely to crash rapidly compared to the more stable DOGE.

然而，當談到在下跌趨勢中保持穩定時，狗狗幣已被證明是表現更好的。這是因為，雖然柴犬的價格較 3 月的高點下跌了 50% 左右，但 DOGE 的價格僅下跌了 25%。這表明柴犬是波動性更大的選擇，因此它更有可能比狗狗幣更快上漲。但這也意味著，與更穩定的DOGE相比，SHIB的價格更有可能迅​​速暴跌。

The Rivalry Between SHIB And DOGE

The rivalry between Shiba Inu and Dogecoin goes right back to the launch of SHIB in 2020. SHIB adopted the Shiba Inu dog which is the face of Dogecoin, and after the DOGE price rallied in 2021 due to billionaire Elon Musk’s influencer, SHIB’s position as the “Dogecoin killer” became more prominent.

SHIB 和DOGE 之間的競爭柴犬和狗狗幣之間的競爭可以追溯到2020 年SHIB 的推出。SHIB 採用了柴犬作為狗狗幣的形象，而在億萬富翁埃隆馬斯克的影響力的推動下，DOGE 價格在2021 年上漲。以來，SHIB「狗狗幣殺手」的地位更加凸顯。

This piggybacking of the already popular Shiba Inu dog breed made popular by DOGE, as well as a very clever marketing campaign of sending half the total supply to Ethereum founder Vitalik Buterin, who proceeded to burn the majority of it, propelled the SHIB price and brought it into the limelight.

DOGE 借用了已經很受歡迎的柴犬品種，以及非常聰明的營銷活動，將總供應量的一半發送給以太坊創始人維塔利克·布特林(Vitalik Buterin)，後者隨後燒毀了其中的大部分，推動了SHIB 價格的上漲，並帶來了使其成為眾人矚目的焦點。

Even now, this rivalry continues to wax stronger, with the Shiba Inu team threatening to dethrone Dogecoin as the leading meme coin. In an X post, the Shiba Inu team boasted that the end was close for Dogecoin. The post hinted at major updates coming for the SHIB ecosystem that will help to solidify its position as the leading meme coin.

Nevertheless, Dogecoin remains the leading meme coin for now with a market cap of $22.8 billion. This puts it ahead of Shiba Inu which is the second-largest meme coin with a market cap of $16 billion.

儘管如此，狗狗幣目前仍然是領先的迷因幣，市值為 228 億美元。這使其領先於市值 160 億美元的第二大模因幣 Shiba Inu。
