Dog-themed cryptocurrency Shiba Inu (SHIB) has seen a staggering 2025% surge in large holder inflows, signaling renewed interest from large holders, referred to as whales. This sudden spike has sparked speculation about what might be going on and what it means for SHIB's next move.
According to IntoTheBlock data, Shiba Inu large holder inflows, which estimate the funds flowing into whale addresses, increased by 2025% this week, reaching 6.26 trillion SHIB on March 20.

This is the case because many of these addresses buy on centralized exchanges and subsequently transfer their purchases to cold storage.
Spikes in Large Holders Inflows can also indicate price bottoms because whale addresses prefer to buy in large quantities after significant corrections, impacting inflows.
