In addition, the largest SHIB whale, which had been dormant for 610 days, reawakened on July 13. This giant whale made a momentous move by transferring 4 trillion SHIB tokens, worth $29.8 million, to eight newly-created addresses. Markedly, this holder held 10.15% of the token’s total supply. This significant transfer emphasized the whale’s influence within the community and highlighted the involvement of large holders in the project’s journey.
A series of events — noteworthy surges in token burns, the re-emergence of a giant SHIB whale, and the impending Shibarium launch — keeps the Shiba community on the edge of their seats to witness the next chapter in the project’s evolution.
