Why Did Shiba Inu Rise?
In the broader crypto market, Bitcoin‘s price exceeded $70,000, and the rest of the altcoins seemed to be following suit in a price rally. But the situation didn’t stop there. The general price increase of meme coins also led to an increase in their total market value.
According to data provided by IntoTheBlock, Shiba Inu saw a significant rise in on-chain activities, and the number of large transactions increased by 50%. Consequently, the number of transactions increased by 516%, rising from 4.79 trillion to 7.23 trillion.
In a single day, approximately 539 transactions were valued at over $100,000 each, which was one of the triggers for the price increase. Among these 539 transactions, one transaction in particular garnered attention by moving $62 million worth of SHIB to an anonymous wallet address associated with the Kucoin exchange.
