An analytics chart shared by the Santiment data agency shows that the largest crypto whales (those on the "millionaire tier" level) now own 39.2 percent of the total supply of the second-biggest crypto, Ethereum.

The company emphasizes that this is the largest portion of the ETH supply owned in almost three months—since May 12.

Ethereum reclaims $2.691 ahead of London hardfork

The second most popular crypto has been rising on the anticipation of the London hardfork. The latter will take place in just a few days, on Aug. 4, at block 12,965,000.

This major and long-anticipated ETH upgrade will be a crucial part of the Ethereum transition to the proof of stake (PoS) algorithm and the dumping of the proof of work (PoW) one used by multiple cryptos, including Bitcoin, Litecoin and Dogecoin.

Besides, Ethereum has just turned six; the blockchain's Genesis block was rolled out on July 30, 2015.
