Large Holders Accumulate Dogecoin, Influencing Price Movement
Despite Dogecoin's [DOGE] recent negative price trajectory, large holders have continued to amass significant amounts of the memecoin. This accumulation trend by whales and investors has potentially impacted Dogecoin's price movement.
Accumulation by Large Addresses
AMBCrypto's analysis of large Dogecoin addresses reveals an uptick in accumulation. Addresses holding 100 million to 1 billion DOGE have increased slightly to over 21%, maintaining this level. As of May 6th, this percentage was around 20%, indicating an additional 1% accumulation. This suggests that despite Dogecoin's recent lackluster price performance, a growing number of addresses are acquiring substantial amounts of DOGE.

This bullish signal implies that these addresses anticipate a potential price increase in the future.
High Large Holders' Activities Reflected in Netflow
As of May 7th, the Large Holders Netflow for Dogecoin stood at approximately 265.86 million DOGE, equivalent to roughly $41.2 million. This figure marked a notable spike following a previous Netflow drop to -342 million DOGE. However, at the time of writing, the DOGE Netflow had decreased to around 49.3 million DOGE, signaling a decline.
The Large Holders Netflow metric monitors the movements of whales and investors holding over 0.1% of the circulating supply. Increases in Netflow typically indicate accumulation by significant market players, suggesting a bullish sentiment, whereas decreases may indicate reduced positions or selling activities.
Stable Number of Holders
Analysis of the total number of Dogecoin holders indicates a stable trend over the past few months. The chart on Santiment shows that the number has consistently hovered between 6.64 million and 6.63 million. At press time, the count stood at 6.63 million, with a flat trajectory.

This stability suggests that while there may be movements among large holders, the overall number of holders remains unchanged. This could signal that the price is unlikely to experience a significant downtrend soon.
DOGE Remains Bearish
The recent accumulation by whales could have influenced Dogecoin's price trend. As of press time, Dogecoin was trading at around $0.144, reflecting an increase of over 1% in price.

Before this uptick, DOGE experienced three consecutive days of downtrends, leading to a decline from $0.15 to $0.14. However, to shift from its current bearish trend, DOGE would require sustained upward movements. As of writing, its Relative Strength Index (RSI) was above 45 but still below the neutral line, indicating potential for further price fluctuations.
