220 Billion Shiba Inu Whale Purchase

In one move, a Shiba Inu whale bought 220 billion SHIB tokens. These came from Binance wallets and could indicate a changing trend for the coin’s long term.

Shiba Inu whale purchase could change things.

Analysts across the internet are not seeing this move as a quick shift in traders’ buying habits. They do not expect the market to swing immediately as a result, but the big move does suggest that there will be major activity for Shiba Inu in the future. A large number of smaller investments would indicate a shift across the market, but a single large investment denotes a single investor’s expectation that their move will pay off in the long run.

SHIB/USD

We have seen this kind of move happen before when the market is acting sluggishly. At the moment, the cryptocurrency market is in a downturn, the result of price correction following a few weeks of bullish movement. Traders are hesitant to invest, and that creates a great opportunity for a whale to step in and shift the market gradually.

When the smaller and more hesitant investors see the move, they may reconsider the crypto and try to determine if there is an investment opportunity there that they were not seeing before. The whale’s move gets them thinking, and it can lead to long-term consequences that do create a bull trend in time. Periodically, whales will make a move like this to give the market some momentum and keep it moving in the direction they want when it has begun to stagnate.

Whales Can Drive Activity

One whale making a large purchase like this can be enough to move the market, but that does not usually happen immediately and in a big way. Instead, we will usually see a trickle of new investments into the asset, and that is exactly what we expect to see here after this major whale move.

Shiba Inu is showing strong support at the moment. Its price is $0.00002307 (SHIB/USD) and moving rapidly upward. The coin gained 1.5% over the last 24 hours and 4% over the last week. These are decent gains during a market low point, and we expect the whale purchase to give this coin some thrust upward.

The purchase shows an increase in interest in the coin, and SHIB could gather steam quickly as the month progresses and end up very high even before we see a major market upturn near the end of the month. We are anticipating the crypto market to be very high around January 20th leading into Donald Trump’s swearing in.
