Dogecoin whale transaction volume exceeds 600 million
The price of Dogecoin, the largest memecoin by market capitalization, has fallen by more than 10% in the past 24 hours. Dog-themed altcoins also faced significant losses last week. As the price of DOGE continues to fall this week, whales moving over 600 million DOGE to popular trading platforms like Binance and Robinhood could cause the memecoin to drop further.
Additionally, another significant whale-level move was recorded approximately eight hours before the last trade. A cryptocurrency whale moved 151.68 million DOGE (worth $12.49 million) from Robinhood to an anonymous wallet address. About four hours before this transfer, two other large Dogecoin transactions were recorded.
Both transactions were sent to Robinhood via anonymous wallet addresses. The transfers involved 10,227 DOGE worth $8.4 million and 82.08 million DOGE worth $6.74 million respectively.
Most of these trades were against cryptocurrency trading platforms, suggesting whales were dumping their DOGE holdings during the recent price decline. However, the transaction that transferred DOGE from Robinhood to an anonymous wallet address shows that some investors are taking advantage of the price drop to prepare for a potential future increase in the value of Dogecoin.
