Shiba Inu becomes most popular altcoin among Binance Smart chain whales 

Crypto data intelligence platform Whale Stats revealed that the top 1000 large wallet investors on the Binance Smart Chain have accumulated 140 billion Shiba Inu tokens. Whales have added $4.23 million worth of Shiba Inu tokens to their portfolios. 

The latest addition makes Shiba Inu one of the most popular altcoins in whales’ wallets on the Binance Smart Chain. While Dogecoin price struggles to recover, demand for Shiba Inu has increased consistently among large wallet investors. 

Shiba Inu ranks first among altcoins purchased by whales on the Binance Smart Chain, while Ethereum ranks tenth. This implies that Shiba Inu is the most popular altcoin accumulated by BSC whales. 

Whales have purchased Shiba Inu tokens through most dips, acquiring a whopping 3.45 trillion last week.
