One of the biggest $ASTEROID holder on Solana is starting to rotate into $VIRL 🤑.

Wallet 8Qef2u, which currently holds around 25.03M ASTEROID worth roughly $301.6K, just bought another 10.04M VIRL valued near $17.7K.

What likely caught the market’s attention is the timing. The buy came shortly after the official account followed, which immediately sparked speculation across the ecosystem.

For now the position size in #VIRL is still relatively small compared to the wallet’s ASTEROID holdings, but traders are already watching closely to see whether this turns into a larger accumulation trend.
