Whales Gobble 62B SHIB in Market Dip: Top Meme Coins to Watch Now

Cryptocurrency whales just made a massive bet on meme coin resilience—scooping up 62 billion SHIB tokens during the recent market downturn.

Market Movers: Where Smart Money Flows

While traditional finance types fret over quarterly reports, crypto's big players are deploying capital where it counts. The 62 billion SHIB purchase signals confidence in meme assets' rebound potential—these aren't random gambles but calculated positions in high-volatility opportunities.

Doge, Shiba Inu, and newer contenders all benefit from this whale activity. Their purchases create instant liquidity floors while retail investors still panic-sell over marginal price swings.

Beyond the Hype: Actual Utility Emerges

Today's meme coins aren't just joke tokens—they're evolving into legitimate ecosystem players with staking rewards, NFT integrations, and real transaction volume. The 62 billion SHIB move represents more than speculation; it's a vote for community-driven assets that outperform sterile corporate tokens.

Wall Street analysts might dismiss these moves as irrational, but while they're busy downgrading stocks over earnings misses, crypto whales are building positions that could double before lunch.

Market dips separate tourists from residents—and right now, the sharks are feeding.

Whales Breathe Life Into the Struggling $SHIB

According to Nansen data, whales have been snapping up $SHIB tokens over the past several days. Based on our estimates, these large holders have bought 62B $SHIB, equivalent to around $745K during this period.

One of the world’s best meme coins, $SHIB, has been on a steep downtrend since this weekend, bringing the price below $0.000012. But the whale buys have pumped some life into $SHIB and pushed it NEAR the $0.0119 in today’s trading.

It remains to be seen how this recent wave of purchases helps support the token’s price.

In the meantime, check out three coins with the potential to be the next crypto to explode.

1. Bitcoin Hyper ($HYPER) – Unlocking Meme Coins in the Bitcoin Ecosystem

When it comes to cryptocurrencies, Bitcoin’s status as the most popular and most valuable asset is unmatched. But it’s not without its flaws.

At only about seven transactions per second, the bitcoin blockchain is extremely slow compared to the likes of Solana, which can easily handle thousands of transactions per second. This results in long processing times, leading to high transaction costs.

Aside from that, currently Bitcoin serves as a good store of value, but you can’t stake it or do other things coins on other chains are capable of.

This is where Bitcoin Hyper ($HYPER) comes in. It plans to develop a LAYER 2 network to take the Bitcoin ecosystem to the next level.

The L2 runs on a Solana VIRTUAL Machine, which enables it to deliver Solana-level transaction speeds and low fees. Plus, it also unlocks other applications for $BTC, including staking, meme coins, dApps, and more.

Its native $HYPER token will be your gateway to exciting benefits when the L2 launches. These include governance rights and access to exclusive features. Of course, you can also use it to pay for gas on the network.

You can get $HYPER tokens for $0.012975 each at the official Bitcoin Hyper presale page. Alternatively, you can stake your tokens and earn 65% p.a. staking rewards. Check out our ‘How to Buy Bitcoin Hyper’ guide for more details.

2. Maxi Doge ($MAXI) – Say Hello to Doge’s Degen Cousin

For degens, Dogecoin is the token to have, which is why it isn’t surprising that it’s the only meme coin in CoinMarketCap’s top 10 crypto list.

What many don’t know, though, is that Doge has a far more exciting cousin called Maxi Doge ($MAXI). Shunned by his relatives for far too long, Maxi is now turning all the dials to 11 in his quest for max gains.

From chasing pumps to his mom’s approval, Maxi isn’t one to do anything half-heartedly. So he chugs his favorite energy drink, stares at charts for hours, and skips sleep all to pursue those green candles.

This gung-ho attitude towards trading has earned him a lot of fans who have helped pump his meme coin, $MAXI.

Priced at just $0.000259, the token is your ticket to dreams of 1000x leverage, no stop-loss, and trading like there’s no tomorrow.

$MAXI could be a great coin to HODL, too. According to our Maxi Doge price prediction, the token could hit $0.0024 later this year.

That’s partly because, with 40% of the token supply going towards marketing, Maxi will have all the ammunition he needs to steer more degens to the fold.

But hurry. Now’s your chance to buy Maxi DOGE ($MAXI) before the next price increase in a couple of days’ time.

3. Pudgy Pandas ($PANDA) – Raising Funds to Save the World’s Pandas

Cute and cuddly, pandas are at risk of being wiped out from the face of the earth. Fortunately, Pudgy Pandas ($PANDA) are here to ensure that doesn’t happen.

The team’s token presale has two main goals: to help conserve pandas and free them from zoos that cage them. You can support the cause by buying $PANDA tokens.

With the funds they’ll accumulate, 10% will go to their panda conservation foundation, while another 10% will go to the panda birth initiative. Both will help provide a better environment for the world’s pandas to thrive.

Time is running out for pandas and the presale, which only runs until October 18. The good news is, if you get in now, you can claim your tokens immediately as the presale has no lockup period.

There will be a total of 11 price increase stages throughout the presale. With three stages already over, it’s best to act quickly so you can still get your share of $PANDA tokens at a discount.

To learn more about the project, check out the Pudgy Pandas whitepaper.

Even as $SHIB continues to slide, the recent slew of whale buys is proof of the enduring attractiveness of one of the market’s all-time favorite meme coins.

This bodes well for up-and-coming projects like Bitcoin Hyper ($HYPER) and Maxi Doge ($MAXI), which aim to attract a new wave of meme coin investors.
