At the time of writing, however, the whale does not hold any SHIB or AAVE. The 18-ranked wallet contains $1,852,886,780 in Ethereum and ETH-based crypto tokens. The biggest share of the portfolio is comprised of tokens related to McDonald’s (22.92 percent), ADIDAS (18.22 percent) and Pornhub (7.12 percent).

Unlike hodlers, traders and whales often speculate on trendy tokens, such as SHIB, AAVE, FTT, etc, buying them at low prices and then selling when the price goes higher.
