The transaction was made from an anonymous wallet that may indicate an OTC purchase or a whale distributing his cryptocurrency stash between smaller blockchain addresses.
A whopping 237,868,630,126 SHIB were transferred to the aforementioned wallet in total. This amount of meme cryptocurrency is evaluated at $6,290,435 at the time of this writing.
The purchase took place after the SHIB team made a major announcement about securing $12 million in investments for developing a layer-3 solution on top of Shibarium. In the meantime, the SHIB lead has clarified what his recent multiple travels around the world were about.
Shytoshi Kusama explains his recent mysterious travels.
In a recently published tweet, the SHIB project lead known under the alias Shytoshi Kusama suddenly shared the reason why he has changed his location on X/Twitter so many times earlier this year.
He has traveled to Japan, Hong Kong, Puerto Rico and several cities in the U.S, including New York, as well as Hong Kong, Dabai and the Maldives. The SHIB community traced all these location changes on Kusama's official X/Twitter handle, pondering what was going on.
Now, Shytoshi announced that in his travels he chased a goal of raising funds for the layer-3 blockchain to be built. Shibarium is a layer-2 solution built on top of Ethereum, and the new blockchain will be based on Shibarium.
In a recent tweet, SHIB's marketing lead, Lucie, explained what benefits a layer-3 solution would bring to the SHIB community. She stated that adding a L3 layer on a top a L2 is "like putting a cloak of invisibility over fast-moving transactions.”
