Interesting events unfolded today with the Shiba Inu token , just as the market heads into the weekend, and crypto never sleeps.

Deciphering 1.6 trillion SHIB balance Beyond the fact that this Shiba Inu transaction became one of the largest exchange outflows of the day, the wallet itself is less interesting, as this was its first transfer involving SHIB in more than two months. What is even more unusual is that this wallet has only ever been withdrawn from Shiba Inu and always from the same exchange, CoinOne. All transactions over the past two years have been withdrawals from CoinOne. And only Shiba Inu.

Shiba Inu (SHIB) Bullruns Aren't Possible Yet By Arman Shirinyan One can assume that the wallet is somehow affiliated with the exchange itself. That would be the simplest explanation, as such belief in Shiba Inu measured in the millions of dollars, without any other activity besides withdrawals from the exchange into a wallet, is unlikely to represent anything else. However, neither Arkham nor any other on-chain data explorer tags this wallet as belonging to CoinOne, which still leaves open the possibility that the address does not belong to the exchange but to an actual SHIB believer, despite all the price perturbations as the token continues to print new lows in search of a bottom.
