1.1 Trillion SHIB Sold as ETH Whales Get Rid of the Meme Coin

  • ETH whales sold an eye-watering amount of Shiba Inu over the last 3 days.
  • The SHIB stash that is held by the top ETH whales has shrunk.
  • Despite the meme coin being in the green for today, it is still down more than 8% over the last week.

According to data shared by WhaleStats, ETH whales sold an eye-watering amount of Shiba Inu (SHIB) over the last three days.

According to the information provided by WhaleStats, the largest whales on the Ethereum (ETH) chain got rid of more than 1.1 trillion Shiba Inu tokens. One of the transactions carried almost 61 billion of the meme coin tokens to the crypto exchange, Binance.

In addition to this, WhaleStats also revealed that since September 14 of this year, the SHIB stash that is held by the top ETH whales has shrunk from $152 million to $140 million.

The amount of SHIB evaluated in this sum of USD equals a staggering 1,115,879,828,326 coins.

It seems like the whales are dumping the meme coin in an attempt to get rid of it as the price of SHIB has been underperforming recently.
