The Meme-based cryptocurrency Dogecoin (DOGE) has recently experienced a significant increase in whale transactions during an improvement in the crypto asset’s price.

300 Million Dogecoin (DOGE) Dumped In Crypto Exchange

Data from the on-chain crypto tracker Whale Alert recently revealed that a massive amount of Dogecoin (DOGE) was transferred to Robinhood. This whale transaction has attracted the interest of traders and investors in the larger cryptocurrency space.

According to the crypto tracker, the transfer was orchestrated by an unknown wallet address earlier today. The wallet address identified as DDuXG.ruc1wwKF sent about 300 million DOGE to the cryptocurrency trading platform Robinhood.

The post read:

300,000,000 #DOGE (25,033,123 USD) transferred from unknown wallet to #Robinhood.

With the current price of Dogecoin, the whale transaction is valued at approximately $25 million. The whale moved the substantial Dogecoin haul to Robinhood for a comparatively low network cost of just $0.18. This is most likely by taking advantage of times when fees and congestion were low.

The transfer of DOGE to Robinhood suggests that the whale is looking to sell the tokens, igniting speculation in the larger cryptocurrency market. However, it seems that the meme-based cryptocurrency’s price increase runs counter to the tokens being dumped on exchanges.

Currently, the price of DOGE is sitting at $0.0839, indicating an over 2% increase in price in the past 24 hours. Meanwhile, its market capitalization is also reflecting the same percentage rise at $11.9 billion, according to CoinMarketCap.

A similar whale transaction was also flagged by the on-chain tracker recently. In October, a similar transaction of 300 million DOGE tokens occurred thrice, while last month also saw a similar transaction twice.

Large-scale individual transactions usually come with the danger of crashes due to fast liquidations or market manipulation. However, there is no solid evidence that the whale transaction had any impact on the token’s price.

The Crypto Asset’s Holders Increases Significantly

Dogecoin has shown a significant uptick in its total number of holders lately. Analytics firm IntoTheBlock revealed that the total number of addresses holding a balance exceeded 5 million this week, and reached a high of 5.02 million on November 27. A major factor contributing to the rise in new Dogecoin addresses is the cryptocurrency’s increasing adoption and interest.

The on-chain analytics firm also revealed that the numbers have been increasing gradually since the start of the year. “This recent activity is most likely driven by Dogecoin “Doginals”, which don’t require a significant on-chain balance of $DOGE,” IntoTheBlock said.

Godspower Owie

My name is Godspower Owie, and I was born and brought up in Edo State, Nigeria. I grew up with my three siblings who have always been my idols and mentors, helping me to grow and understand the way of life.

My parents are literally the backbone of my story. They’ve always supported me in good and bad times and never for once left my side whenever I feel lost in this world. Honestly, having such amazing parents makes you feel safe and secure, and I won’t trade them for anything else in this world.

I was exposed to the cryptocurrency world 3 years ago and got so interested in knowing so much about it. It all started when a friend of mine invested in a crypto asset, which he yielded massive gains from his investments.

When I confronted him about cryptocurrency he explained his journey so far in the field. It was impressive getting to know about his consistency and dedication in the space despite the risks involved, and these are the major reasons why I got so interested in cryptocurrency.

Trust me, I’ve had my share of experience with the ups and downs in the market but I never for once lost the passion to grow in the field. This is because I believe growth leads to excellence and that’s my goal in the field. And today, I am an employee of Bitcoinnist and NewsBTC news outlets.

My Bosses and co-workers are the best kinds of people I have ever worked with, in and outside the crypto landscape. I intend to give my all working alongside my amazing colleagues for the growth of these companies.

Sometimes I like to picture myself as an explorer, this is because I like visiting new places, I like learning new things (useful things to be precise), I like meeting new people - people who make an impact in my life no matter how little it is.

One of the things I love and enjoy doing the most is football. It will remain my favorite outdoor activity, probably because I'm so good at it. I am also very good at singing, dancing, acting, fashion and others.

I cherish my time, work, family, and loved ones. I mean, those are probably the most important things in anyone's life. I don't chase illusions, I chase dreams.

I know there is still a lot about myself that I need to figure out as I strive to become successful in life. I’m certain I will get there because I know I am not a quitter, and I will give my all till the very end to see myself at the top.

I aspire to be a boss someday, having people work under me just as I’ve worked under great people. This is one of my biggest dreams professionally, and one I do not take lightly. Everyone knows the road ahead is not as easy as it looks, but with God Almighty, my family, and shared passion friends, there is no stopping me.
