A Binance-linked whale that had been inactive for six months just made a comeback with a new $119,330 bet on Shiba Inu (SHIB), sending 15,182,013,963 SHIB into wallet "0xDB345...fba0," according to Arkham. The same address got the most SHIB in mid-2025, grabbing 46.6 billion tokens in a multistage buildup before disappearing. 

That play — which is now 6.7% underwater — looks like it was not abandoned, but rather patiently extended.

This happened at the same time as smaller amounts of ETH, DOGE and WLD were sent from Binance hot wallets in a three-hour period.

But SHIB dominated in both volume and intent. With this latest top-up, the wallet's SHIB stash rises to 61.84 billion, worth $484,840 at current prices — making it the largest allocation in a $1.67 million portfolio.

Shiba Inu (SHIB) price turbulence triggers whale awakening

On the price side of the transfer, SHIB is down 6.78% today, "thanks" to a market sell-off, but the new inflow suggests the whale is averaging into weakness rather than cutting risk.

The wallet's other holdings — 495.1 BNB worth $459,840, 138.95 ETH equal to $447,040, 660K FET estimated at $159,870 and smaller PEPE, APE and WLD positions — are all down too, with FET and APE sliding over 11% in particular.

This does not seem like a random action. When a whale surfaces after six months of  silence and does exactly what it did last time — buy in tranches, vanish, repeat — it is either preparing for a comeback or playing a long game nobody else is invited to. This is especially true when the address is linked to Binance exclusively, avoiding any DEX.

If the Shiba Inu coin can hold onto the $0.0000076 floor and bounce back to its 50-day line, this wallet's deep red will turn green before most people even notice.
