SHIB recovers top holding position from FTT
The WhaleStats website has shared that just now Shiba Inu has recovered the position of the largest holding among Ethereum investors. Previously, the token had lost it to FTX Token (FTT), its regular rival for this honorable spot.
At the moment, SHIB is the whales' largest crypto holding by USD value, MATIC is the most widely held token and UMA is the most-traded one.
The amount of SHIB held by whales constitutes 18.38% of their comprised portfolio—that is 46,163,625,767,697 Shiba tokens worth $1,075,689,905.
The amount of FTT owned by the ETH whales at the time of writing is 24,493,640 coins, worth slightly less than a billion USD.
