As reported by @DogeWhaleAlert, mysterious whales have shoveled almost 3 billion Shiba Inu meme coins in staggering lumps of 4 million DOGE and greater.
This occurred as interest in Dogecoin revived thanks to Elon Musk returning to his purchase deal of Twitter.

Last week, it became known that Tesla boss and centibillionaire Elon Musk had resumed his paused deal on purchasing the Twitter behemoth for $44 billion. That news triggered a new wave of interest in Dogecoin since, earlier this year, Musk suggested implementing DOGE as a payment option for Twitter Blue subscriptions.
Musk is a well-known fan of DOGE, who used to drive the coin's price up with his tweets. In them, several times Musk called Dogecoin "the currency of the people" and promised to take DOGE to the moon. Since January of this year, Tesla has been accepting DOGE as payment for its merch in the online store. SpaceX did likewise in spring.
