Whale wallets have the most Ethereum, USDT and USDC
On the other hand, when we look at wallets regardless of market value, we come across familiar cryptocurrencies. The whales currently have $26.2 million worth of Ethereum in their wallet. This indicates that ETH is the most popular cryptocurrency among large investors. On the other hand, investors hold $6.7 million USDC and 6.5 million USDT. As we have also reported as Kriptokoin.com, USDC and USDT are the largest stablecoins by market capitalization. That is, they are pegged at a 1:1 ratio to the US dollar.
Apart from these, investors have over $1 million Shiba Inu (SHIB) in their wallet. Shiba Inu is the second largest meme coin by market capitalization, inspired by Dogecoin. In addition, wrapped BTC (WBTC) with a value of $ 1.03 million is also in the portfolio of whales. On the other hand, LOCUS, interestingly, appears here as well. According to their statement, Locus Chain is a project focused on both decentralization and scalability. It aims to be the next generation, layer-1 public blockchain protocol. There is no particular reason behind investors investing thousands of dollars in the altcoin of this protocol.
It is necessary to point out that there are cryptocurrencies such as aWETH and stETH, which are traded on different networks in the list. stETH refers to staked Ethereums on the Lido network while aWETH stands for ETH on the Aave network. Finally, the portfolios feature the popular decentralized finance (DeFi) protocol Maker’s MKR coin. According to the data, the whales are holding MKR of $661,162. You can see the list as follows:
