However, Emily did not elaborate on the strategy behind accumulating these funds. She failed to mention whether the accrued $5.7 million from SHIB was a recent venture or a record dating to the 2021 frenzy.

Confirmed Shiba Inu Millionaires

While the lack of further data has triggered doubts, verifiable on-chain data has proven cases of investors securing massive profits from Shiba Inu this cycle. The Shiba Inu millionaires mostly amassed their wealth with modest initial investments, often just a few thousand dollars. This was primarily due to their earlier engagement with Shiba Inu before mass adoption.

For instance, an anonymous wallet expended $8,000 to acquire Shiba Inu from August 2020 to February 2021. He accumulated 103.3 trillion SHIB cumulatively and held on to most of it when Shiba Inu hit an all-time high in October 2021. 

By then, the amassed SHIB had hit an astonishing value of $5.71 billion. This billionaire trade through Shiba Inu accounts for one of the few on-chain verifiable claims of fortune made through SHIB. 

Another instance involves a trader who invested just $3,793 in Shiba Inu in August 2020, later realizing profits of at least $127 million. If this investor had held onto their SHIB tokens until the coin’s all-time high, their initial investment of barely $4,000 would have been worth a staggering $1.35 billion.
