Recent blockchain data has shown that Steve Aoki has completely withdrawn from his position in Shiba Inu, ending his long-term engagement with the cryptocurrency. The development was identified and reported by Arkham Intelligence , a platform that tracks wallet activity and digital asset movements. The transactions, carried out over several days, culminated in the sale of approximately 1.78 billion SHIB tokens. At the time of execution, the assets were valued at just over $10,000. This final sale eliminated Aoki’s entire SHIB balance, leading to an exit after years of holding the token. After the liquidation, the funds were transferred to Gemini, a United States-based trading platform. Aoki’s Recent Liquidation Pattern This move is not isolated. Data suggests a broader reduction in Aoki’s exposure to digital assets. In addition to disposing of his SHIB holdings, he has also scaled down his position in Ethereum, retaining only a small portion, approximately five ETH, in his wallet. Furthermore, he previously sold off his stake in Pepe, showing a pattern of liquidation across multiple cryptocurrency assets. Aoki’s involvement with Shiba Inu dates back several years and includes multiple acquisition points. One notable transaction occurred in early 2024, when he exchanged 2.2 ETH, which was worth around $5,000 at the time, for over 500 million SHIB tokens. Steve Aoki is out of the market. Steve Aoki, DJ and former NFT Influencer, just sold $30K of SHIB and ETH, moving the proceeds to Gemini. He still holds 7 Bored Ape NFTs that he paid over $800K for in 2021. They are now worth only $13.8K each. pic.twitter.com/w4boNLm60o — Arkham (@arkham) April 13, 2026 Since then, however, the market value of SHIB has declined considerably . At current price levels, the same amount of capital would yield a significantly larger quantity of tokens, highlighting the extent of the asset’s depreciation. Technical Indicators Reflect Weakness Market analysts have also pointed to technical indicators suggesting continued weakness in SHIB’s price performance. The token recently fell below a previously established support level, which some interpret as a signal of potential further downside. Projections from technical analysis place possible future price levels below current valuations, reinforcing a cautious outlook among traders.

During the peak of the NFT market in 2021, he acquired several of these assets at a total cost exceeding $800,000. Current estimates, however, place the value of each item significantly lower than its original purchase price, showing the broader correction in the NFT sector. The recent activity suggests a shift in Aoki’s investment approach within the digital asset space. His decision to liquidate multiple positions, including SHIB, PEPE, and portions of his ETH holdings, may indicate reduced confidence in certain segments of the market or a reallocation of capital toward other opportunities. While the exact motivation behind these moves remains unconfirmed, the pattern is consistent with a broader trend of reassessment among early adopters of cryptocurrencies and NFTs.
