Significant investors in the meme-inspired cryptocurrency Shiba Inu (SHIB) have increased their holdings dramatically, setting off on-chain fireworks. This is a noteworthy example of whale activity. These major players amassed an astounding 2.85 trillion tokens in a single day.
The jump is especially noteworthy given the Large Holders Inflow statistic, which shows a 208% increase in holdings from the day before, hitting an enormous 1.37 trillion tokens. The astounding estimated value of this inflow into the wallets of these cryptocurrency whales is $66.98 million.

But once it becomes clear that this spike in accumulation is accompanied by a sizable outflow, the story thickens. These wealthy SHIB investors sold off more than three trillion tokens in the same time frame. Over the last 24 hours, there has been a net decline of 150 billion Shiba Inu tokens due to this significant disposal that outpaced accumulation.
The trend is further supported by the Large Holders Outflow indicator, which increased by more than 300% over this time frame, showing a higher outflow rate than inflow rate. As a result, the Large Holders Netflow indicator entered negative territory, indicating that the well-known cryptocurrency may experience further instability.
On-chain data indicates that Shiba Inus usually do not stay in the negative zone for very long, even with this setback. The SHIB community is currently faced with the dilemma of whether the bullish whales' frenzy of activity is expected or if there will actually be a shift in the market dynamics that favors outflows.
