Among other large single positions in this whale's portfolio is TUSD stablecoin, AVAX, DAI, TRX, MATIC and Cardano's native token, ADA.

Overall, the largest 100 wallets on the BNB chain are holding $15,833,990 worth of Dogecoin—that is 1.17% of their comprised portfolio.

They own slightly more of BNB Chain-based ADA worth $16,483,029, which is 1.22% of their comprised crypto riches.

At the time of writing, however, the aforementioned whales hold zero DOGE as they have moved it out either to sell or simply moved the coins to another address.
