Dog-themed cryptocurrency Shiba Inu is seeing a positive net flow spike, according to on-chain data. IntoTheBlock Large Holders Netflow, which provides an idea of the change in the positions of whales, has surged by a whopping 483%, suggesting a comeback by this class of investors.
Large holders' netflow increased from -41.19 billion SHIB on March 26 to 2.11 trillion SHIB on March 27.
Netflow spikes might be interpreted as accumulation by large holders or whales, while dips indicate reduced positions, or selling.
In the case of Shiba Inu, accumulation from large holders may be the primary factor, since a recent unexpected statement by Ethereum cofounder Vitalik Buterin about Shiba Inu massively surpassing his expectations may have influenced whales positively.
Yesterday saw a massive two trillion SHIB move from the KuCoin exchange to, probably, cold storage in the wake of the current regulatory crackdown that befell the exchange and two of its founders.
At the time of writing, SHIB was up 4% in the last 24 hours to $0.00003126, and up 17% weekly.
