In a recent turn of events, Shiba Inu has once again solidified its position as a favorite among crypto enthusiasts, boasting over 12,000 addresses holding at least 1 billion SHIB tokens despite recent market challenges. The crypto market has been experiencing turbulence, with Bitcoin’s upcoming halving and price corrections often affecting various assets, including Shiba Inu. Despite this, investor confidence in SHIB remains unwavering.
According to data from IntoTheBlock, these 12,176 addresses, collectively hold a staggering $15.32 billion worth of SHIB. Notably, most of these addresses, over 9,040, hold between 1 billion and 10 billion SHIB, with a cumulative balance of 20.38 trillion SHIB. Investors with holdings ranging from 10 billion to 100 billion SHIB possess $1.53 billion worth of Shiba Inu, spread across 1,450 addresses.
What sets Shiba Inu apart is the presence of addresses holding between 100 billion and 1 trillion SHIB, totaling $4.8 billion, and a select few addresses with holdings between 1 trillion and 100 trillion SHIB, amounting to $4.51 billion. This distribution highlights the optimism and anticipation among large SHIB holders for substantial price increases.
As projections suggest a potential surge in Shiba Inu’s value to $0.0001, the data also reveals that the majority of SHIB investors are long-term holders, with over 1 million addresses hodling the asset for more than a year. This trend showcases the enduring appeal and confidence in Shiba Inu’s future growth and the confidence among shark and whale addresses, with investors patiently anticipating significant price surges.
