Voyager Sells 1.4 Trillion Shiba Inu, But There’s Good News For SHIB

In a recent revelation, Lookonchain, the on-chain analysis service,
reported that Voyager Digital, the now-bankrupt crypto lending
platform, has been offloading its crypto assets on Coinbase in
recent days. Over the past four days, the defunct lender has sold
49 different crypto assets, netting approximately $63 million. For
the SHIB army the most notable sale was the 1.4 trillion Shiba Inu
tokens, which amounted to nearly $14.4 million. Beyond SHIB,
Voyager’s sales included significant amounts of Bitcoin (BTC),
Ethereum (ETH), Chainlink (LINK), Polygon (MATIC), and Decentraland
(MANA). “Voyager has been selling assets on #Coinbase for the past
4 days and has sold 49 tokens for ~$63M. Including: 781 BTC ($23M);
9,570 ETH ($17.6M); 1.4T SHIB ($14.4M); 234,660 LINK ($1.74M);
1.87M MATIC ($1.27M); 3M MANA ($1.1M);”, Lookonchain tweeted. The
sales have significantly reduced Voyager’s crypto holdings.
However, they haven’t entirely emptied their coffers. The on-chain
analysis service further detailed Voyager’s remaining assets:
“Voyager currently holds $11.3M worth of assets, including: 52.4M
VGX ($8.27M); 55 BTC ($1.62M); 537K KNC ($371K); 1.18 FTM ($286K);
20.7M STMX ($140K); 4.85M GALA ($111K).” Related Reading: Shiba Inu

sales have drawn attention, there’s a silver lining for the SHIB
community. According to Lookonchain’s data, Voyager’s SHIB holdings
have been completely liquidated. Thus, Voyager’s SHIB holding have
gone to zero, suggesting a potential reduction in sell pressure on
the Shiba Inu token in the future. Shiba Inu Price Shows Resilience
Despite the massive sell-off by Voyager, SHIB’s price remained
resilient. The token has seen a surge of over 14.2% in the past
week. This bullish momentum is largely attributed to the
forthcoming Shibarium mainnet launch at the Blockchain Future
Conference, starting today. Investors seem optimistic about SHIB’s
potential, believing that if the layer-2 scaling solution delivers
on its promises, the SHIB token could witness even more substantial
gains. Related Reading: Shiba Inu Steals The Spotlight, Leaving
Bitcoin Behind In A Week Of Price Surges At press time, the Shiba
Inu price stood at $0.00001019 after finding support at the 38.2%
Fibonacci retracement level ($0.00001007). The key resistance on a
daily basis is currently the 50% Fibonacci level at $0.00001121.
Should a breakout occur, SHIB could rise 21% from its current price
to follow through to the 61.8% Fibonacci level. Major resistance is
expected at this price level ($0.00001235). The RSI on a daily
basis has been in an ascending trend since the annual low on June
10 and was at 65 at press time. This leaves the SHIB bulls with
further room to run. For an explosive double-digit move, the RSI
should enter deep overbought territory. For investors, today’s or
tomorrow’s Shibarium launch should be taken with a grain of salt.
As usual for the crypto market, it could be a “buy the rumor, sell
the news” event, as the impact of the launch might only be seen in
the long term over the coming months. In this case, the 200-day EMA
at $0.00000938 will be a key support to defend for the bulls.
