According to WhaleStats, Shiba Inu (SHIB), Polygon (MATIC), and AAVE tokens are trending since July 1. These tokens along with Uniswap (UNI) and The Graph (GRT) are among the most purchased tokens by the biggest Ethereum (ETH) whales in the last 24 hours.

Treat will also be used to derive rewards for the Metaverse and the Shiba Collectible Card Game.

The SHIB price has jumped nearly 5% in the past 24 hours, with the current price at $0.0000107.

Meanwhile, Polygon has increased its influence in the NFT market this week. For instance, The Sandbox added LAND deployment on Polygon. Moreover, Polygon has partnered with phone maker Nothing to bring Web3 technology to mobile users.

Today, Robinhood has added support for the MATIC deposits and withdrawals. Also, Reddit has announced an NFT-based avatar marketplace in partnership with Polygon. These latest developments have pushed the prices to rise 6% today, with the price currently trading at $0.55.

Will the Price Rally Sustain?

As per the recent announcements regarding the SHIB, AAVE, and MATIC, the tokens could rise more on the back of the high trading volume seen in the last few days.

Moreover, whale accumulations are a bullish signal of an upcoming rally in price. Also, the recent growth across the crypto market may also back a rally in these tokens.
