Shiba Inu has emerged as one of the most successful meme coins out there. With head-to-head competition with Dogecoin, the SHIB team has been working relentlessly on different projects for the community. However, Shiba Inu is now facing a significant price decline.
The latest data from IntoTheBlock has revealed that large whales are acquiring trillions of SHIB. According to the data, 26.2 trillion SHIB has been purchased by these participants in the past week. The data is collected by taking into account the addresses that accounted for at least 0.1% of SHIB’s total daily trading volume.
