Dogecoin Outperforms
Despite the market downturn, Dogecoin (DOGE) has performed surprisingly well, posting a modest 2.9% decline. It is the only meme coin currently outperforming the sector.
WIF Whale Exits with Massive Profit
Amidst the sell-off, a major WIF whale has made headlines by liquidating their holdings for an astounding profit. As per Lookonchain's analysis, the whale sold 14.53 million WIF for $24 million on August 3, 2024.
Whale's Historic Purchase
The whale had purchased the WIF at a mere $5,340 on November 30, 2023. Their sale represents a remarkable 4,497x return on investment.
Potential for Higher Profits
If the whale had sold at an all-time high, they would have realized an astonishing 12,927x ROI, translating to a profit of over $69 million.
