  • Whales accumulated $9 million in just eight weeks.
  • Shiba Inu is now in fourteenth place among major crypto assets.
  • Shibburn’s insights reveal an impressive 240.91% surge in SHIB token burns.

In a surprising turn of events, Shiba Inu emerged as the unexpected victor during an otherwise lackluster trading week, according to market intelligence platform, Santiment, known for analyzing on-chain metrics of over 2,500 cryptos.

According to the report, wallets of influential players dubbed crypto sharks and dolphins, which held between 10 million to 100 billion Shiba Inu tokens, amassed a staggering $9 million in just under eight weeks.

Santiment further bolstered its claims with visual evidence, sharing a chart that depicted notable price jumps of SHIB, influenced by transaction surges orchestrated by big crypto whale wallets. The report revealed that over the past eight weeks, an astounding 1.11 trillion Shiba Inu coins had been added to wallets harboring 10 million to 100 billion SHIB tokens.

This substantial sum is a significant milestone for Shiba Inu, placing it at 14 among the most significant crypto assets, up from 19 early this month. Interestingly, data from CoinMarketCap shows Shiba Inu is now among the top gainers in the last 24 hours.
