Shiba Inu Network Witnesses 43% Surge in Large Transactions Ahead of ‘Major’ Listing

Amidst the ongoing meme coin frenzy, relatively older meme coins like Dogecoin [DOGE] and Shiba Inu [SHIB] continue to remain relevant. The increased number of transactions in these respective networks and adoption proves the same. The Shiba Inu, in particular, has been moving ahead untethered by the advent of new meme coins like PEPE.

While the top ten crypto assets experienced a significant decline in terms of large transactions, Shiba Inu (SHIB) was moving in the opposite direction. According to data from IntoTheBlock, the Shiba Inu network noticed a notable increase in large transactions, reaching a value of $9.9 million. This surge occurred within the last 24 hours, representing a significant rise of 43.78%.

It is worth noting that a significant portion of these transactions in the Shiba Inu network was attributed to whale investors. Data further indicated that the majority of SHIB holders, accounting for 67.35%, are whales. Retail investors make up 20.44% of the holders, while the remaining 12.21% represented other types of investors. This data suggested that a considerable influence on the network’s transactions is exerted by a relatively small number of large holders.
