Solana-based meme coin dogwifhat has jumped 12% and has ranked as the top gainer in the market today.
At the time of writing, dogwifhat (WIF) was still up 11.5%, trading at $1.58 per price data from crypto.news. The crypto asset’s daily trading volume was hovering around $598 million while its market cap had risen to $1.58 billion. Following the latest price increase, the dog-themed meme coin has taken 55th place among the cryptocurrencies by market cap.
WIF’s recent surge is fueled by the recent whale accumulation of Dogwifhat tokens, with one whale acquiring over 9.57 million WIF tokens, worth $13.59 million, within just four days. Another whale used 1.4 million USDC to purchase 643,832 WIF tokens, making them the largest holder with 28.66 million tokens. Thie trend indicates growing investor confidence in WIF’s potential rebound, even after a 67% drop in value over the past year.
WIF remains the fourth-largest memecoin by market capitalization and the top Solana-based memecoin.
Data from Coinglass reveals that WIF’s total open interest jumped by 12.7% in the last day, increasing from $187.97 million to $211.8 million, reflecting growing trader engagement and anticipation of potential price movements.
Data from the market intelligence platform also shows that WIF’s aggregated funding rates are currently at -0.0015%, signalling a bearish sentiment among traders regarding WIF’s price outlook.
WIF’s current price positions it near the middle Bollinger Band, around $1.58, which often acts as a dynamic support or resistance level. Meanwhile, the MACD line has recently crossed above the signal line, suggesting a possible bullish momentum shift.
If the price is sustained above the middle band, it could attempt to move towards the upper Bollinger Band at around $1.90. However, if the price fails to hold above this middle band, it may face further consolidation or a pullback toward the lower band around $1.25.
Meanwhile, a descending triangle emerged between late July and August, characterized by steadily declining highs and a firm support level. This formation typically hints at a potential bearish breakout, especially if the price breaches the established support line.
WIF’s recent price surge aligns with a broader uptick in the meme coin market, which has increased by 5.7%, reaching a total valuation of $ 40.6 billion over the past 24 hours. Alongside WIF, other notable meme coins like Pepe (PEPE), Bonk (BONK), and Brett (BRETT) have also seen gains, rising by 5.7%, 6.6%, and 4.3%, respectively.
Meanwhile, the global crypto market has also experienced a 1% surge, bringing it to a total valuation of $2.16 trillion. Bitcoin (BTC) is also in the green, up 2.1%, and it is exchanging hands at $58,895.
