Notably, the top player has switched from Shiba Inu to PEPE, highlighting a potential dynamics shift in the memecoin sector.

The transaction comes as PepeCoin displays weakness, down over 10% in the past day, following substantial liquidations from developers.

Major player shifts from SHIB to PEPE

The transaction caught the attention of market participants as it came from an investor who suffered massive losses trading Shiba Inu.

The trade purchased 40.9 billion Shiba Inu tokens during bullish actions but lost patience and sold at a loss.

The trader spent approximately $2.98 million to acquire the SHIB assets only to lose 85.5% ($2.55 million) of his stash.

Meanwhile, the whale transaction raised eyebrows, with many questioning the trader’s plans and potential returns from PEPE.

Market players will likely watch to see whether the investor will profit from PepeCoin after massive losses in SHIB.

Current price outlook

The meme coins displayed mixed reactions amid the significant whale actions.

PEPE failed to shift its trajectory despite the massive investment, losing 10% over the past day to hover at $0.00001492.

Meanwhile, Shiba Inu maintained an upward stance as it climbed to rank among the top ten cryptos by market capitalization.

SHIB gained 3% over the past day to trade at $0.00002682 during this publication.

Nonetheless, the whale accumulation will likely revive optimism among PepeCoin enthusiasts.

The substantial influx in investment could signal trust in the asset’s potential, attracting more traders.

Furthermore, PepeCoin’s current dip comes after it exploded to all-time highs.
