An early SHIB whale swapped $3.5M SHIB for FET, reflecting strategic market adaptation. Despite the swap, the whale still holds 713 billion SHIB, indicating continued belief in the token. SponOnChain found an early SHIB whale who made a huge move by swapping their SHIB holdings for FET tokens. In the last few hours, this whale traded 255.62 billion SHIB, worth about $3.5 million, for 3.114 million FET. This change has sparked concern in the crypto market, particularly given the whale’s earlier success with SHIB. This early $SHIB buyer is swapping its losing $SHIB position for the rising $FET!
