  • Shiba Inu price hovers around $0.000013 on Tuesday after dropping nearly 12% the previous day.
  • Supply Distribution data shows that whale wallets have decreased SHIB holdings in the last ten days.

Shiba Inu (SHIB) price is hovering around $0.000013 on Tuesday after dropping nearly 12% the previous day. Supply Distribution data shows that whale wallets have decreased SHIB holdings in the last ten days, while its technical outlook suggests a deeper correction targeting the $0.000010 level.

Whale wallets lower SHIB holdings

Santiment Supply Distribution data showed that whale wallets decreased SHIB holdings by 61.5 billion in the last ten days. The metric reflected that whales holding SHIB tokens between 100,000 and 1 million dropped from 139.16 billion on February 16 to 137.64 billion on Tuesday. 

During the same period, wallets holding 1 million to 10 million and 10 million to 100 million also decreased from 2.07 trillion to 2.03 trillion and 9.41 trillion to 9.39 trillion, respectively. This development shows that the whales are unloading their bags and increasing the selling pressure, adding a bearish outlook for Shiba Inu.
