What’s important to note is that the assets transferred now make up the biggest portion of the recipient wallet, which is associated with Robinhood.
Currently, this wallet holds over $435 million worth of cryptocurrencies, with Shiba Inu making up $345 million, followed by Chainlink (LINK) and Aave (AAVE).

Retracement and Current Status
However, the token has retraced to $0.000037 as of the time of writing. According to CoinMarketCap data, Shiba Inu is now 56% away from its all-time high, with increased trading volume supporting the token’s attempt to revisit these unprecedented levels.
