The Shiba Inu wallet that famously turned $8,000 into $5.7 billion is now active again, according to Etherscan data.

The Shiba Inu billionaire has so far transferred roughly 10 trillion SHIB tokens that are worth about $2.7 billion to four empty addresses.
The wallet in question controls about 13% of Shiba Inu’s total circulating supply.
