Increases in the volume of large trades indicate increased activity among major players buying or selling.

At the time of writing, SHIB was trading at $0.00002818. According to CoinMarketCap, SHIB is the 14th largest cryptocurrency by market cap, down 5.55% in the last 24 hours. Moreover, the meme coin is trading at a discount of about 68% from its all-time high of $0.00008845, which it saw 4 months ago.
According to data from WhaleStats’ analysis of the top 100 Shiba Inu whales, the average SHIB balance held by this large whale category has increased by 45.69% in the last 24 hours. SHIB also remains the largest token held among the top 1,000 Ethereum (ETH) wallets. The total number of SHIB holders continues to set new highs and currently has 1,180,598 holders.
