Trump’s IRS DeFi tax repeal has gained quite a bit of momentum after the Senate recently voted 70-28 to overturn a controversial tax rule targeting decentralized finance.

Shiba Inu (SHIB) has underperformed the wider cryptocurrency market since the start of the year. However, a recent development concerning the token’s exchange reserves could herald the beginning of a move to the upside. Despite once being one of the most popular meme coins, in recent years, it has become significantly overshadowed by Dogecoin (DOGE).  As a response, the project has shifted its focus toward utility — and while positive developments abound, this has failed to translate to an upward motion on the price chart. At press time, SHIB was changing hands at a price of $0.00001251, with a 1.48% pullback on the weekly chart bringing year-to-date (YTD) losses up to 42.25%.
