Dogecoin Whale Dumps 140 Mln DOGE As Price Takes Bearish Turn, What’s Next?
In an unprecedented turn of events, following a remarkable price rally witnessed by Dogecoin, one of the most popular meme-based cryptocurrencies, the token now appears to be facing a correction phase in the market. This piqued the interest of crypto market enthusiasts across the globe as DOGE’s price noted a slip below the $0.22 mark recently, with today’s massive DOGE dump to a CEX further weighing in.
Insights revealed by the blockchain tracker Whale Alert illustrated nearly 140 million DOGE offloaded amid Dogecoin’s today’s bearish turn. This promptly gave rise to a tidal wave of speculation surrounding the meme-based token’s potential price action ahead. Although market dynamics painted a bearish portrait for the meme token, the broader market trend embarked upon by DOGE contrarily garnered optimism, adding up to its price action’s conundrum.
Whale Dump Adds Bearish Tint To DOGE
According to Whale Alert’s insights, 139.99 million DOGE, worth $30.22 million, was shifted to Coinbase in the past 24 hours. Resulting in DOGE supply gains on exchanges, this dump further fell in line with DOGE’s bearish turn, per CoinMarketCap’s data.

Intriguingly, while today’s price correction and the aforementioned dump added a bearish splash to Dogecoin, the meme token’s broader charts contrastingly illustrated signs of sustained upward momentum, gradually shifting from a downtrend to an uptrend, defined by a U-shaped recovery.
This stirred a whirlpool of speculation among crypto market traders and investors globally, as on-chain market dynamics further showcased a downtrend for DOGE.

Dogecoin’s Price Slips
As of writing, the Dogecoin token’s price has dropped 1.62% in the past 24 hours and is currently resting at $0.2125. Notably, the meme coin’s charts illustrate that the token witnessed quite a flux over the past day, nabbing investor attention.
Meanwhile, the derivatives data showcased a 3.08% drop in the open interest and a 46.28% dip in volume, flagging to the token’s downtrend in the market. However, analysis by CoinGape Media spotlighted a crucial movement showcased by Dogecoin.
Notably, the token recently broke the resistance of $0.206 to hit a 28th-month high of $0.2288, fueling investor enthusiasm. However, following corrections witnessed, as mentioned above, the DOGE price will likely retest the breached resistance and potential support. Simultaneously, a sustained breakout could cushion buyers to pursue a possible target of $0.27, escorted by $0.3.
