Shiba Inu: 9 Wallets Scoop Up Over 1 Trillion SHIB
The cryptocurrency market is home to thousands of assets; however, Shiba Inu [SHIB] has been making waves. Despite encountering considerable market fluctuations, SHIB has managed to stay consistently above the $0.00002 mark.
The token has been grappling to break past the $0.00003 level, which has become a formidable resistance point. Currently, SHIB is trading at $0.00002528, experiencing a decline of 1.14% over the last 24 hours. Nevertheless, this has not discouraged several investors from committing large sums to the cryptocurrency.

Major Accumulation by Investors
A recent update from Lookonchain, a crypto surveillance account on X [formerly known as Twitter], highlights a significant uptick in SHIB market activity. According to their report, nine key wallets, including those of two prominent whales, have collectively amassed an impressive 1.36 trillion SHIB tokens.
This significant purchase, worth $35.2 million, signals a bullish sentiment among large investors who are positioning themselves for potential gains from future price movements.
The acquisition of the tokens was marked by careful and strategic financial maneuvers. Four investors utilized portions of their Ethereum [ETH] portfolios to buy SHIB, reflecting a deliberate reallocation of assets within the cryptocurrency space. The entry points for these purchases varied, with some acquiring SHIB at $0.00002557.
However, others bought at the peak of $0.00002620. The average acquisition price for these substantial transactions was around $0.00002596, indicating a calculated effort to secure SHIB at a relatively stable rate.
Other Whale Activity
A particularly notable transaction involved a prominent whale who made headlines by investing $18.44 million in SHIB. On June 5, this whale traded 4,849 ETH tokens to purchase 715.9 billion SHIB.
This investor is well-known within the Shiba Inu community, having previously acquired 5.5 trillion SHIB for around $400,000 during the early days of the token’s rise. Impressively, this whale later capitalized on market peaks. They were selling their holdings for around $121 million, highlighting the potential for substantial returns in the cryptocurrency market.
