Whales Move 4.2 Trillion SHIB as Price Sees "Hangover Reverse"

Over the past 17 hours, three transactions carrying astounding amounts of Shiba Inu were spotted and shared by Twitter user @shibaplay_. In total, more than 4.2 trillion meme coins were transacted.

The funds were moved while the price of SHIB has begun to reverse after a recent massive pump.

The three aforementioned transactions were worth 3,369,887,165,968; 449,380,140,957 and 417,084,768,611 Shiba Inu, with over 4.18 trillion in total.

This amount of meme coins was evaluated at $50.7 million at the time that the transfers were made.

Over the past week, whales have become quite active as the second largest meme coin demonstrated an impressive rise three times, plunging in between. In this trajectory, Shiba Inu followed the original meme cryptocurrency, Dogecoin. The latter went up at an astonishing pace after Elon Musk finally closed the Twitter purchase deal on Friday, firing the CEO and two other high-ranking executives.

The community hopes that Musk will merge Dogecoin with Twitter in the near future as he hinted at that when he was only sharing his plans to buy the social media giant for $44 billion in the summer.

Whale alert 🚨: 449,380,140,957 $SHIB transferred.
