The popular memecoin Shiba Inu (SHIB) flipped the prospering Polygon (MATIC) today for the most traded crypto among the TOP 100 biggest Ethereum (ETH) whales. Besides, as the Shiba Inu community, more popularly known as the SHIB Army, is preparing for Shibariumโ€™s launch, the whale activity suggests that the top holders see Shibarium as a game-changer.

Whales Keep Splashing Money on SHIB

For instance, the increased whale trading activity is seen in six trillion Shiba Inu tokens transferred from Binance. According to Etherscan, the ten transactions were made to top up an anonymous wallet with a staggering $75,660,000 worth of tokens.

Ultimately, the launch of the Layer-2 solution is set to bring another token in the ecosystem, Bone ShibaSwap (BONE), back into the spotlight.

This comes just weeks after the official SHIB Token developer team confirmed that Bone ShibaSwap would be the only token used in Shibarium for gas fees. At the time of publication, the governance token for Shibarium trades at $1.49, according to CoinGecko.

At the minute, more ETH whales are selling than buying SHIB, but the buy/sell volume is still on the buying side, as the largest whales choose to accumulate the popular memecoin.
