Recent data from Santiment highlights an increase in large transactions valued at $100,000 or more across several major cryptocurrencies. Projects with market caps exceeding $500 million have seen significant week-over-week rises in these high-value transactions.

Mantle (MNT) leads the pack with a 600% increase in whale transactions, followed closely by MakerDAO's DAI at 340% and MKR at 200%. Other notable mentions include Fetch.ai (FET) up 178%, Rain (RAIN) at 100%, Aster (ASTER) with 89%, USDD on Ethereum rising 82%, PEPE at 61%, USDT on Optimism up 58%, and USDC on BNB Chain increasing by 57%.
