HEX welcomes increased whale activity

According to on-chain analytics firm, Santiment, large wallet investors were back in the HEX market. Earlier this week, these whales reportedly scooped up a large amount of HEX.

Elaborating on the same, Santiment wrote,

“Everyone’s favorite asset to either love or hate, Richard Heart’s baby just continues to climb. You’ll notice that yesterday was the highest level of whale transactions other than February 9th. And on that day, there was a mid-sized correction. Don’t be surprised if history repeats itself for at least a couple of days.”

Furthermore, the increase in social sentiment as well as whale activity could prove that HEX is poised for a good week.
