Crypto data tracker Whale Alert has observed a massive Shiba Inu shift in recent hours. Whale Alert reports that 4.19 trillion (4,193,953,460,450) SHIB worth $40,823,942 moved between whale wallets.
A Shiba Inu mega whale emerged as the massive 4.1 trillion SHIB shifted to a new address, which only houses the $40 million worth of crypto stash.
Over the weekend, a massive stash of 4,218,953,460,450 Shiba Inu tokens worth $43,372,951 was also reported to be moved between whale wallets.
The transactions might represent OTC transactions that occur outside of a crypto exchange, or maybe wallet reshuffling. Either way, the identity and motive of the new whale are unknown.
