Dogecoin (DOGE) whales seem restless, with data showing that major investors holding millions of dollars in DOGE have moved their assets in the last seven days. This has led to various speculations about the short-term outlook of the altcoin.

Notable Dogecoin Transfer from a Crypto Whale

According to on-chain data, 230 million DOGE were transferred from the wallet address “DDu … wKF” to the “DHQ… 3oU” wallet address, which is linked to the trading platform Robinhood. At the time of writing, the whale-level wallet address still holds over 2.8 billion DOGE, valued at $26 million, suggesting the investor is trying to reduce risk with some sales.

Market observers are paying attention to the timing of this wallet address’s activities. DOGE has been trading in the green zone since last month, with an increase of over 2% in the last 7 days and over 20.71% in the last 30 days. This indicates that the Dogecoin whale has become active during a period of rising prices.

As is known, crypto whales are investors who hold large amounts of digital assets. Whale movements are closely monitored as they can shake the crypto market. The transfer of a digital asset to crypto exchanges usually indicates the intent to sell, but it’s not possible to determine the outcome of the transferred assets just by looking at on-chain data.

What’s Next for DOGE?

At the beginning of the week, amidst a price drop in the memecoin, it was discovered that whales had moved approximately 438 million DOGE, causing panic in the altcoin’s community. During this period, the market value of the memecoin decreased by 0.27%, dropping to $13.10 billion.

The recent whale-level transactions are believed to be carried out by investors who bought Dogecoin at prices below the current rate, aiming to take profits. Although the exact reaction of the memecoin to these transactions is uncertain, the sales-heavy nature of the activities is causing fear.
