Recent on-chain data analysis reveals an unprecedented movement in the Shiba Inu (SHIB) ecosystem, with transfer volume exceeding 6 trillion tokens within 24 hours. This significant surge in activity has established a new record for October, drawing attention from market analysts and investors alike.
The data indicates substantial wallet-to-wallet transfers, with 224 large-scale transactions recorded during this period. This figure approaches the weekly high of 269 transactions documented on October 29, demonstrating sustained high-level activity within the network.
The substantial volume could signal different market scenarios, depending on the transfer patterns and participant intentions. On October 29, the meme coin experienced a notable 11% climb. This surge also saw it decouple from Bitcoin. However, the meme coin has faced a decline over the past 24 hours.
Shiba Inu trades at $0.00001785, having lost about half of its gains from October 29. Despite the loss, the $0.000017 is strong support for the meme coin, and this recent decline might be the full extent of losses that the meme coin will experience.
What Does the Heightened Activity Mean?
This increased activity presents two distinct possibilities. From an optimistic perspective, the surge in transfers might indicate strategic positioning by institutional investors or large-scale holders, potentially anticipating future market appreciation.
However, the alternative scenario suggests these movements could represent whales preparing for a massive sell-off, which would introduce additional supply into the market and tank the SHIB price.

Historical analysis of SHIB’s trading patterns provides an important context. Previous instances of elevated transfer volume without corresponding price appreciation have typically indicated sell-offs rather than accumulation phases.
For SHIB to experience a positive turn, the bulls must counter the sell-off with increased buying activity. The absence of such buying pressure could result in a retest of lower support zones, and a breakdown below the $0.000017 support would open the meme coin up for a massive decline.
The magnitude of these recent transfers suggests the potential for increased price volatility in the near term. However, analysts are optimistic about the meme coin.
One reason for their optimism is that SHIB is approaching a golden cross. This indicator could signal a bullish turn for SHIB, potentially supplementing the buying pressure, and pushing its price up if whales begin to sell off their tokens.
