IntoTheBlock analytics reports that the volume of Shiba Inu transactions greater than $100,000 has reached fresh multi-month highs at $389.89 million. It also notes that these transactions account for 81% of the total on-chain volume.

Large transactions are those in which the amount transferred exceeds $100,000, according to IntoTheBlock. The on-chain volume of these transactions gives an idea of the amount whales and institutional players transact in a given day. Increases in the volume of large transactions indicate increased activity among institutional buyers and sellers.

The latest rise in on-chain large transactions coincides with the timing of SHIB returning to the top 10 purchased tokens and top most used smart contracts by the 1,000 biggest ETH wallets, as tracked by WhaleStats. SHIB also clinched the biggest token holding among whales.
