The popular Shiba Inu (SHIB) meme coin is seeing a major shift in the number of large transactions processed through its network, according to cryptanalysis firm IntoTheBlock.
IntoTheBlock defines large transactions as transfers greater than $100,000 and says the metric “acts as a proxy” for activity by institutional investors and high net worth individuals.
According to the analysis firm, the current Shiba Inu Large Transactions Momentum Gauge is down 3.08%, which it says is a bearish sign.
SHIB is trading at $0.000011 at the time of writing. The 15th-ranked crypto asset by market capitalization is down more than 1.70% in the last 24 hours and more than 15% in the last 30 days. Even with the recent correction, the Ethereum (ETH)-based memecoin is up 37.5% since early 2023.
IntoTheBlock also reports that the vast majority of SHIB holders remain underwater on their investments in the asset.
The information firm notes that only 30% of SHIB holders are making money at the asset’s current price, compared to 5% who are breaking even and 65% who are losing.
The firm also says that 67% of Shiba Inu holders have held their SHIB for more than a year, and 30% hold the main meme token for a period between one month and 12 months. The remaining 3% of SHIB keepers have had their Shiba Inu for less than a month.
Shiba Inu remains more than 87% below its all-time high of $0.00008616, which it reached in late October 2021.
