Intensifying Whale Accumulation

A rise in whale accumulation indicates a notable bullish wave is fast approaching. Although the whale accumulation may not directly impact the value of the token, the sentiments turn bullish that compelling the retail traders to accumulate more, uplifting the price beyond the crucial levels.
The surge in Daily Active Addresses
The daily active address is one of the important metrics that determine the number of addresses actively interacting with the platform.
