The size of Ethereum's top one hundred token holder position in Shiba Inu, SHIB, has decreased by the equivalent of $25.2 million in one month. The number of SHIB held by these crypto whales currently stands at 5.8 trillion tokens, which equates to $48.26 million and represents 2.22% of the total portfolio size.

The participation of large investors does create a kind of support for the price of SHIB, especially when their share of the position was measured at 10% of the total token offer in the summer. The presence of the Shiba Inu token in this investor group's portfolio both increases its value and strengthens the foundation for the price.

Right now, by the way, the holdings of the top 100 Ethereum whales in SHIB account for just over 1% of the total supply.
