The significant Whale’s accumulation comes after Crypto.com’s routine custody operation, transferring 24,939,482,510,233 (24.93T) SHIB, worth $269,595,805 ($269.59M) to a new address to maintain the safety and security of exchange wallets.
Such major accumulation from whales in an ongoing market where Bitcoin is trading above $28,000 shows that a significant price increase for Shib is around the corner as the market is short-term bullish with BTC leading. When BTC stops pumping and consolidates at a specific price range, the altcoins may start pumping.
Shib Keeps On Advancing
The demand for Shiba Inu continues to grow with the launch of Shibarium Public Beta, resulting in a significant increase in the burn rate. As reported by The Crypto Basic, the Shiba Inu Community has collectively destroyed 2,072,114,690 (2.07B) SHIB through 290 separate transactions in the past week alone.
Amidst the ongoing developments, Shiba Inu’s lead developer, Shytoshi Kusama has recently hinted at a groundbreaking development while commenting on the meeting between Marcie Jastrow, the Shiba Inu metaverse advisor, and Ted Schilowitz, the futurist at Paramount Pictures during the 2023 South by Southwest festival held in Texas.
Meanwhile, to combat a growing FUD campaign against the project, Kusama has classified all community members as part of the Shiba Inu Defense Breed.
