A Look Off And On-Chain"},"content":{"rendered":"

The Dogecoin (DOGE) price has had an incredible weekend. Following Elon Musk\u2019s confirmed Twitter acquisition<\/a>, the DOGE price jumped 95% over the last seven days. The memecoin exploded to over $0.14 at times and is currently sitting at about $0.11.<\/p>\n

Musk\u2019s gigantic influence on the DOGE price is an old acquaintance for the crypto market. Over the past few years, the Tesla and SpaceX CEO kept moving the price with his statements. But since the Twitter acquisition, he has gone quiet. Musk has not mentioned Dogecoin since the deal was closed.<\/p>\n

However DOGE fans remember April when Musk floated the idea of letting Twitter users pay with Dogecoin for his premium subscription service, Twitter Blue. Currently, rumors are circulating that Musk plans to have all users pay $20 for a blue check mark.<\/p>\n

Some Tesla products can already be purchased on the automaker\u2019s website using Dogecoin. The Boring Company accepts the cryptocurrency as payment for using the Las Vegas Loop.<\/p>\n

Because of the massive influence on the market, not everyone believes that Musk has good intentions. In June, a $258 billion lawsuit<\/a> was filed against Musk, SpaceX and Tesla<\/a> for manipulating the DOGE price. In September, the lawsuit was expanded to include seven new investors and six new defendants, including his tunneling company, Boring Co.<\/p>\n

According to the lawsuit, Musk and the other defendants intentionally drove up the price of Dogecoin by more than 36,000% over two years and then caused it to crash. In doing so, the defendants \u201cmade tens of billions of dollars at the expense of other investors,\u201d according to the complaint.<\/p>\n

Are Dogecoin Whales Manipulating The Price?<\/h2>\n

But it\u2019s not just Elon Musk, other whales seem to be setting the tone for the Dogecoin price as well. As new on-chain data shows, there were three whale alerts yesterday. The largest whale transferred 450 million DOGE, while the seventh largest whale received 10 million DOGE. In total, 402 million flowed out of Binance.<\/p>\n

Three Whale Alerts for $DOGE<\/a>!<\/p>\n

The top 1 holder transferred 450M $DOGE<\/a>($54M) out.<\/p>\n

The top 7 holder received 10M $DOGE<\/a>($12M) again.<\/p>\n

A total of 402.16M $DOGE<\/a>($49M) flowed in to #Binance<\/a>.#dogecoin<\/a> #DOGEUSDT<\/a> #DogecoinRise<\/a> #DogecoinWhaleAlert<\/a> https:\/\/t.co\/8uTanG78bG<\/a> pic.twitter.com\/7Sx7eeDlFg<\/a><\/p>\n

The price of DOGE surpassed $0.10 for the first time since May 2022 on Saturday, with a 24-hour gain of nearly 30%. An anonymous on-chain analyst posted the table below, which shows the latest 30-day holdings change of the top 10 holders of DOGE.<\/p>\n

According to the analysis, it can be seen that two addresses are highly correlated with the price of DOGE.\u00a0 One of them is the largest whale, the exchange Robinhood, which transferred a total of 1.05B DOGE ($107.4M) on October 05, October 28 and October 29. Not elaborating\u00a0what this means, it can be assumed that Robinhood is gathering a lot of retail interest for DOGE.<\/p>\n

Further, the analyst notes that coincidentally, the address \u201cDPDLBA\u201d transferred 1.35B DOGE in early August. After the transfer, the price of DOGE exceeded $0.85 and reached its highest level after May.<\/p>\n

The top-7 holder of DOGE is the other address impacting the market. From October 6th, the address received 5M or 10M DOGE every day. He also received 10M DOGE on Saturday and \u201cit doesn\u2019t seem to stop\u201d.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe last time address \u2018DMuFDC\u2019 received DOGE started on July 26 and stopped on August 5, after which the price of $DOGE started to rise. Now that he is still receiving $DOGE, does it mean that the price of $DOGE will continue to rise?\u201d, the analyst concluded.<\/p>\n
