Ethereum whales have had their eyes on three altcoins during these drops.
Ethereum (ETH)
The altcoin at the top of the list is actually both surprising and not. Ethereum whales, of course, will want to accumulate more ETH during price drops, as there are investors with a large number of ETH in their hands. ETH whales hold 40,651 ETH tokens worth approximately $125 million.
Ethereum experienced a decline to the $ 3000 level. Recent events, however, have brought its price down to $2900.
Shiba Inu (SHIB)
Shiba Inu (SHIB) The community is making a show of strength and joining forces to prove that SHIB is permanent. According to data shared by Whalestats, the Shiba Inu ranked second among the top three tokens held in the last 24 hours by the top 1000 Ethereum Whales.

FTX Token (FTT)
FTX took third place with a total of 36,282 tokens worth $1,661,924. FTX recently ran an ad for the 2022 NFL Superbowl, and it undoubtedly seems to have paid off.

This year’s Superbowl was filled with crypto, with NFT advocate and musician Snoop Dogg as well as many big crypto names taking center stage at halftime with Eminem.
