Dogecoin Jumps to 21-Cents Despite $200M Whale Transfer to Binance
The post Dogecoin Jumps to 21-Cents Despite $200M Whale Transfer to Binance appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.
Dogecoin traded through heavy volatility over the August 24–26 window, swinging within a $0.013 range before consolidating near $0.21. A sharp drop from $0.218 to $0.208 on August 25 came amid massive 1.57 billion volume, while broader pressure was tied to a 900 million DOGE transfer to Binance that unsettled traders. Despite near-term caution, whales continue accumulating, leaving sentiment split between breakdown risks and dip-buying optimism. News Background Whale transfers added fuel to volatility: between August 24–25, a single 900 million DOGE ($200+ million) was moved to Binance from a long-term holding wallet. Market sentiment soured on fears of a sell-off, with open interest in DOGE futures dropping 8% as speculative traders pared exposure. Despite the inflow, on-chain data shows whales accumulated over 680 million DOGE in August, countering retail distribution.

Price Action Summary DOGE posted a 6.06% spread in the 23-hour session ending August 26 at 12:00, trading between $0.221 and $0.208. The sharpest move came during 19:00–20:00 GMT on August 25, when DOGE fell from $0.218 to $0.208 on 1.57 billion volume. Price also whipsawed after the whale transfer, swinging from a $0.25 high to test $0.23 support before stabilizing. A rebound lifted DOGE from $0.210 session lows to $0.211–$0.212 in the 11:27–12:26 GMT window on August 26, aided by a 17.85 million volume spike at 11:58. Technical Analysis Support established at $0.208 following the high-volume drop. Resistance holds at $0.218–$0.221, capping rallies. Current consolidation between $0.210–$0.212 suggests accumulation. RSI recovered from oversold levels near 42 to mid-50s, showing stabilizing momentum. MACD histogram narrowing toward bullish crossover, signaling potential upside reversal.
