• Currently, there are over 80 trillion Shiba Inu tokens sitting on cryptocurrency exchanges, equaling approximately $635 million.
• It is worth mentioning that SHIB went through a brief price spike in the middle of the week, which could be one reason for the larger number of withdrawals.
• Other X users have speculated that such investors might soon move the withdrawn tokens to Shibarium addresses. The layer 2 blockchain network, which aims to increase transaction speed, lower costs, and elevate the memecoin above its rivals, went live today (August 28).
• Taking tokens off exchanges and moving to self-custody methods is usually viewed as a bullish factor for a coin’s price since the fewer coins sitting on trading platforms means less immediate selling pressure.
• It will be interesting to follow if SHIB’s valuation will go up in the near future, considering the aforementioned developments. As of the moment, the self-proclaimed Dogecoin (DOGE) killer trades at $0.00000795 (per CoinGecko’s data), or 2% less than yesterday’s figure.
