Morbi pretium leo et nisl aliquam mollis. Quisque arcu lorem, ultricies quis pellentesque nec, ullamcorper eu odio.

There’s been much hype around Shibarium since 2023 has started. It is a Layer 2 solution proposed by Ryoshi, the creator of Shiba Inu. Shytoshi Kusama – the lead developer and cofounder of the Shiba Inu ecosystem – has been teasing the release ever since.

Whales have also been roused by the hype surrounding the Shibarium upgrade. According to CoinGecko, this resulted in the token gaining 14% in the bi-weekly time frame, and currently trading at $0.00001312.

The day after Valentine’s, whales accumulated over 50 billion SHIB worth more than $600,000 during the time of the transaction. This comes after the same whale disposed of some 70 billion SHIB last week valued at around $956,200. 

Last week, the broader financial market experienced a selloff with both equities and crypto sustaining losses. This has been caused by uncertainty in the macroeconomics of the United States and globally. 

Increased Whale Activity And Improving Macros

SHIB has been a favorite of whales for a long time. According to WhaleStats data, the token is the third most held cryptocurrency with an average amount held of over $6.8 million.

At the time of writing, the whale holds a staggering 13.7 trillion SHIB worth about $187,600,000.

The recent whale accumulation might be a sign that whales are willing to take more risk for long term gain. This positive sentiment reversal came after the release of the month on month consumer price index report.

The US Federal Reserve recently released multiple macro indicators that show a somewhat improving macro situation. MoM CPI stood stagnant at 0.5% with the year on year CPI going down from 6.5% to 6.4%. 

Consumer spending has also increased, showing that individuals have more confidence in the macroeconomic situation. These are signs of the Fed’s aggressive quantitative tightening measures.

However, with the CPI still being high, the central bank might enact more interest rate hikes. This hawkish sentiment has already been explored, with the Fed eyeing more interest rate hikes since its last rate hike. 

Saying here what I just said in the main TG chat (overrun by fudders and Shadowcats). Go enjoy Vday. Tomorrow my 1st of a series of mediums introducing the world to Shibarium will be released. The bow fit nicely, but I’m not releasing anything until @kaaldhairya is done mourning.

Shibarium Upgrade Eyeing Close Release

Kusama recently tweeted about how the network upgrade is close to being released. This release might be in early March, instead of the supposed Valentine’s Day release.

With Kusama releasing the first blog post regarding the network upgrade, we might see a big price movement for SHIB on the day of the release.

At $0.00001192, Bulls Should Overcome This Level

The token’s current momentum is being stopped on its tracks by the resistance level at $0.000014. This resistance, if not broken in a shorter time frame, might restrict SHIB’s short to medium term goal. For the meantime, investors and traders should continue to target this resistance for a bigger move upwards.

They say journalists never truly clock out. But for Christian, that's not just a metaphor, it's a lifestyle. By day, he navigates the ever-shifting tides of the cryptocurrency market, wielding words like a seasoned editor and crafting articles that decipher the jargon for the masses. When the PC goes on hibernate mode, however, his pursuits take a more mechanical (and sometimes philosophical) turn.

Read more

Christian's journey with the written word began long before the age of Bitcoin. In the hallowed halls of academia, he honed his craft as a feature writer for his college paper. This early love for storytelling paved the way for a successful stint as an editor at a data engineering firm, where his first-month essay win funded a months-long supply of doggie and kitty treats – a testament to his dedication to his furry companions (more on that later).

Christian then roamed the world of journalism, working at newspapers in Canada and even South Korea. He finally settled down at a local news giant in his hometown in the Philippines for a decade, becoming a total news junkie. But then, something new caught his eye: cryptocurrency. It was like a treasure hunt mixed with storytelling - right up his alley!

So, he landed a killer gig at NewsBTC, where he's one of the go-to guys for all things crypto. He breaks down this confusing stuff into bite-sized pieces, making it easy for anyone to understand (he salutes his management team for teaching him this skill).

Think Christian's all work and no play? Not a chance! When he's not at his computer, you'll find him indulging his passion for motorbikes. A true gearhead, Christian loves tinkering with his bike and savoring the joy of the open road on his 320-cc Yamaha R3. Once a speed demon who hit 120mph (a feat he vowed never to repeat), he now prefers leisurely rides along the coast, enjoying the wind in his thinning hair.

Speaking of chill, Christian's got a crew of furry friends waiting for him at home. Two cats and a dog. He swears cats are way smarter than dogs (sorry, Grizzly), but he adores them all anyway. Apparently, watching his pets just chillin’ helps him analyze and write meticulously formatted articles even better.

Here's the thing about this guy: He works a lot, but he keeps himself fueled by enough coffee to make it through the day - and some seriously delicious (Filipino) food. He says a delectable meal is the secret ingredient to a killer article. And after a long day of crypto crusading, he unwinds with some rum (mixed with milk) while watching slapstick movies.

Looking ahead, Christian sees a bright future with NewsBTC. He says he sees himself privileged to be part of an awesome organization, sharing his expertise and passion with a community he values, and fellow editors - and bosses - he deeply respects.

So, the next time you tread into the world of cryptocurrency, remember the man behind the words – the crypto crusader, the grease monkey, and the feline philosopher, all rolled into one.
