A few days after an unknown whale moved Shiba Inu coins worth billions of dollars on the Coinbase exchange, the SHIB woke up on Wednesday, 14th of June to witness another huge transfer. Cryptocurrency data tracker WhaleAlert, on it’s official twitter page noted that a staggering 3.8 trillion Shiba Inu (SHIB) had recently been transferred.
According to the tweet, a total transfer of 3,811,233,843,288 units of SHIB, worth roughly $25,596,246 at the time of writing, was done from one unidentified wallet to another anonymous wallet. Unknown wallet owners’ identities and intentions for the large transfer are also unknown.
Analysis by Bein Crypto’s Kyle Baird said that the development is connected to the market’s widespread volatility and advised that traders and investors must be ready for swift price changes. According to Baird, the movement of this much SHIB reminds investors that the market can be unpredictable and that they should proceed with caution when purchasing digital assets.
