Dogecoin Whale Moves 2 Billion DOGE

On May 9, a whale dumped 300 million Dogecoin (DOGE) tokens worth $21.73 million to the crypto exchange Binance, as per WhaleStats.

However, the on-chain analysis revealed that the Dogecoin whale has moved 1.98 billion DOGE worth $160 million in a transaction at 8.50 AM UTC. The whale sent 300 million to Binance and 1.68 billion to a new wallet address. The wallet address is now the 8th largest wallet holding, accounting for 1.21% of total Dogecoins.

Other whales are also dumping DOGE and Shiba Inu (SHIB) for either buying PEPE or temporarily exiting the market. In the last 24 hours, 2.20 billion DOGE coins have been moved.

Shiba Inu whales are also dumping SHIB for PEPE. A whale sold 6 million SHIB for buying 325 billion in mid-April and made millions by making the decision, as per data by Lookonchain.
