Recent on-Chain Data Shows Large SHIB Whale Activity
According to large transaction volume data, the number of Shiba Inu transactions over $100,000 went through a major uptick last week, with the value of transactions greater than $100,000 reaching $661.5 million.

Interestingly, on-chain data showed large transactions consisting of a to and fro movement into and outside exchanges, indicating mixed feelings from large holders. A involved the movement of 100 billion SHIB tokens into a crypto exchange on Sunday. Speculations from investors are that this could be a potential selloff from the whale, suggesting that there is a possibility of a price decline in the short term.
What Does This Mean For Shiba Inu Holders?
For average SHIB investors, whale activity can be both promising and worrying. While more large holders and transactions may indicate growing mainstream interest and adoption of the token, their moves can also significantly impact price.

However, movement into exchanges suggests a selloff, as in the case of the 100 billion SHIB transaction on Sunday.
