Shiba Inu becomes largest hodl among Ethereum whales
According to a recent tweet from WhaleStats, the largest Ethereum whale is again accumulating massive amounts of SHIB. SHIB is also the largest dollar-based cryptocurrency held by these whales.
22.35% of whales’ portfolios include Shiba Inu. This means that the whales allocate $559,974,432 to SHIB.
What technical analysis says for SHIB price
SHIB once again proved that it can still manage strong demand after briefly falling below the $0.00001 level. Price action has been forming around its 50-day moving average for the past few days. The recent bullish resulted in a move above the same MA. SHIB’s RSI index hovers on the neutral line, trading at $0.00001108 at the time of writing.
The price action of the Shiba Inu sets higher price floors. According to analysts, this is a sign of healthy demand. This observation is supported by the strong accumulation recorded by the Money Flow Index (MFI).
Do these indicators herald higher levels?
The rise and accumulation of the Shiba Inu reflects the high resistance observed at the largest addresses. Their balances increased by 0.32% between June 6 and June 9. While the percentage figure may seem small in the grand scheme, it represents a large increase in the number of SHIBs accumulated.
The number of whales actively accumulating SHIB increased even more according to the whale transaction metric. This means that the overall sentiment is improving on the upside. This observation resonates with higher currency outflows, especially compared to the inflows in the last three days. Foreign exchange outflows peaked at SHIB 194 billion on July 13 against a maximum inflow of 64.17 SHIB. A similar observation was seen on July 14, with outflows peaking at 159.39 billion, while inflows peaked at 101.5 billion SHIB.
