Massive Withdrawal from Coinbase Institutional
The platform Whale Alert tracked a mammoth withdrawal of Shiba Inu tokens from Coinbase Institutional. A total of 3,000,000,000,000 SHIB were transferred to an unknown blockchain address, which equates to $38,244,000. This transaction has prompted a lively discussion among users on platform X.

In the comments regarding the transaction, opinions among users are divided. Some believe this could indicate a strategic accumulation of meme coins by an institutional investor, while others suggest that Coinbase may be simply reshuffling its own SHIB supplies between its wallets.
Thus, against the backdrop of a significant increase in burn rates and major transactions, interest in Shiba Inu tokens continues to grow among both retail and institutional investors.
