About four days ago, Times Tabloid reported a 30% SHIB price dip over a period of 7 days. It has been revealed that a mysterious Shiba Inu whale initiated the sale of a total of 9.47 trillion SHIB worth about $100 million before a notable downtrend.
In the last few days, the selloff in the crypto market has been notable, leading to the massive price dip of the two largest cryptocurrencies in the market, Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH). Before the two digital currencies rebounded, they were closer to dropping below $20,000 and $1,000, respectively.
