2 Cryptocurrencies to Buy in a Heartbeat Over Shiba Inu in April

If you think the stock market has made big gains since the March 2020 pandemic lows, take a closer look at the cryptocurrency space. While the benchmark S&P 500 has tacked on gains of just over 100% in two years, the aggregate value of digital currencies has risen by more than $2 trillion over the same time frame, which works out to an increase of 1,430%!

As you might imagine, the Big Two, Bitcoin and Ethereum (CRYPTO: ETH), have received a lot of credit for this more than $2 trillion nominal increase. But it's lesser-known coins like Shiba Inu (CRYPTO: SHIB) that have been driving buzz in the cryptocurrency space throughout much of the past year.
