The transfers included two transactions of 300 million DOGE each and a third involving a staggering 500 million DOGE. Together, these transactions are worth over $445 million at Dogecoin’s current market value.
Whale Alert reported 300,000,000 DOGE worth $121,375,564; 500,000,000 DOGE worth $202,294,187 and 300,000,000 DOGE worth $121,370,881 transferred between unknown wallets.
The nature of these transactions remains unclear, with the anonymity of the wallets adding a layer of mystery.
Such substantial transfers are often associated with exchanges, institutional investors or large holders, known as “whales.” These movements could indicate OTC transfers that occur outside of an exchange or mere consolidation of holdings.
Dogecoin’s large transaction volume jumps 41%
Within the last 24 hours, Dogecoin’s large transaction volume has surged 41.12%, suggesting increased activity among whales or institutional holders. Large transaction volume typically tracks transfers exceeding $100,000 in value, often associated with institutional investors, exchanges or whales.
According to analytics platform IntoTheBlock, Dogecoin recorded $23.35 billion in large transaction volume within the last day. This comes to 60.9 billion DOGE.
What’s next for Dogecoin’s price?
At the time of writing, DOGE was up 1.92% in the last 24 hours to $0.41. Dogecoin has been rising since finding support at a low of $0.365 on Nov. 26. If today closes in green, it would mark the third day of gains.
If the rebound sustains, bulls may seek to push Dogecoin above $0.44. If they do that, Dogecoin could surge to $0.50 and later to $0.59. On the other hand, a break and close below $0.369 might result in further declines. Dogecoin may drop to $0.33, then to $0.30.
