The whale may be anticipating a bullish outlook for Shiba Inu (SHIB). The asset is one of the most popular cryptocurrencies in the market and has seen a significant rise earlier this year. SHIB is currently the 12th largest crypto project by market cap, sitting behind Cardano (ADA). SHIB’s journey to the 12th place was fuelled by BTC hitting a new all-time high in March. BTC’s rally, on the other hand, was due to increased inflows into spot BTC ETFs, which the US SEC (Securities and Exchange Commission) approved in January this year.
