Shiba Inu (SHIB) experienced a 129% surge in large transactions, with $33 million in SHIB moved by whale holders. This comes amid growing anticipation for Shibarium’s upcoming liquid staking platform, which is expected to drive further engagement and SHIB burns.

Whales Return to SHIB

Large transactions involving Shiba Inu (SHIB) have increased by 129% since whale activity has surfaced again.

Data from IntoTheBlock shows that large transactions, defined as those surpassing $100,000, have increased by 129.64% in the past 24 hours, reaching $33.41 million, or 2.51 trillion SHIB. This indicates that whales, or major holders, are looking at Shiba Inu again.

Fed Decision Adds to Market Anticipation

As the cryptocurrency market remains in a holding pattern in anticipation of the Fed rate decision, this surge implies that whales may be purchasing or selling large quantities of Shiba Inu. With a 1% decline to $0.00001315 in the past day, SHIB was marginally down.

Shiba Inu is about to experience major changes in its environment, mainly in its layer-2 solution, Shibarium, and this surge in whale activity is happening at the same moment.

Shibarium Liquid Staking Nears Launch

An official liquid staking platform for Shibarium's K9 mainnet is reportedly getting ready to launch soon; thus, the wait is finally over.

The K9finance liquid staking platform is set to open on Shibarium, marking the Unleashing of the Bonecrusher Mainnet, which has been in development for nearly a year.

Burn Platform Expected to Boost SHIB

According to U.Today, the platform is aiming to increase SHIB by raising the total value locked (TVL) on Shibarium and the volume of transactions on the platform through the introduction of liquid staking for BONE. It is anticipated that both of these will assist SHIB Torch in burning more SHIB.

The burn gateway for Shiba Inus, "SHIB Torch," became available on Shibarium in August. More SHIB burns should be possible on the SHIB Torch platform thanks to the k9 mainnet innovation.
