In January 2021, a Shiba Inu (SHIB) investor purchased 500 billion SHIB tokens for around $200. At the time, SHIB was trading with a whopping nine zeros after its decimal point. A month after the purchase, SHIB deleted two zeros, and the $200 investment was then worth $10,000. This translates to a gain of around 4900%.
Seeing the impressive ROI (Return on investment), the investor cashed out his SHIB holdings. The investor also made a YouTube video celebrating the trade. However, what happened next surprised the investor for the worst.

In October 2021, Shiba Inu (SHIB) reached its all-time high of $0.00008616. The investor was at a loss for words as his $200 investment would have turned into a whopping $40 million had he held on. This would have resulted in an almost 200,000X return on the initial $200 investment.
The investor published another video in November of 2021 expressing his regret for not holding on to his 500 billion SHIB tokens.
If the investor had continued to hold on to his SHIB till today, its value would have been close to $4.1 million. This would have still been a very impressive return on the $200 investment.
