Meme coin Dogwifhat (WIF) has been on an unstoppable price rally this year with a majority of gains attained just over the last month. Earlier today, the Dogwifhat (WIF) price rallied all the way to $4. As of press time, the WIF price is trading 20% up at a price of $3.73 with a market cap of $3.742 billion. Also, the daily trading volumes have surged by a staggering 53% all the way closer to 41 billion.

Dogwifhat (WIF) Becomes Third-Largest Meme Coin

With the Dogwifhat (WIF) price surge today, WIF’s market capitalization has reached an impressive $4 billion, elevating it to the position of the third-largest MEME token. This achievement places WIF ahead of PEPE and solidifies its position behind leading MEME tokens such as DOGE and SHIB.

Of particular interest is the largest holding address for WIF, identified as 2Fcm…PE6d, which has seen remarkable profits amounting to $134 million, reflecting an impressive increase of 1440%. The holder initiated purchases of WIF back in December 2023, acquiring the token at an average price of $0.248. Despite these substantial gains, indications suggest that selling activities have yet to commence, signaling continued bullish sentiment surrounding WIF.

Analysts are expecting that the Dogwifhat (WIF) price can touch over $10 billion in the next few years giving it the status of blue-chip meme coin.

WIF Liquidations, Governance, and Tokenomics

As per data from Coinglass, the recent WIF price rally to $4 has led to $2.09 million in liquidations of which $705.39K have been in long liquidations while $1.39M have been in short liquidations. Although the WIF price has retraced back partially from its all-time high of $4, the open interest remains up by 29% at $528.6 million.

One of the fundamental pillars of Dogwifhat lies in its tokenomics, which prioritizes decentralization and community-driven governance. With a capped supply of approximately 998.9 million tokens, known as WIF, the meme coin epitomizes a decentralized ecosystem where participants hold sway over network governance. This approach underscores a departure from centralized decision-making, placing the power to shape the network’s direction firmly in the hands of the community.

Although lacking in practical utility, the token’s value remains buoyant owing to the speculative interest it attracts. The project’s founders have unequivocally stated their intention to refrain from token burning or implementing staking rewards. This stance reinforces Dogwifhat’s identity as a pure meme coin driven solely by the engagement of its community members.
