Meanwhile, the memecoin sector has shed 6% in market cap over the past 24 hours as billions in profits get locked in. Dogecoin is no exception. Despite a 40% spike in volume, its price has slipped over 2% as of writing.

With sentiment shaky and on-chain metrics steady but unimpressive, Dogecoin looks set to enter a holding pattern. $0.23 acts as key support.

A rebound? Not unless FUD fades and activity picks up.

A silver lining for DOGE

Interestingly, since DOGE’s post-election peak, the number of holders has jumped from 6.8 million to 7.15 million. This is a clear sign that conviction is running high.

This could be a turning point. Short-term volatility may shake out weak hands, but the steady rise in holders reflects growing confidence in Dogecoin’s long-term potential.

Notably, whale activity is shaping up to be a major catalyst. While some (1M-10M DOGE) have offloaded billions, larger whales (10M-100M DOGE) are in full accumulation mode, adding $6 billion since November.

It’s not enough to trigger a supply shock yet. But with strong HODLing sentiment and deep-pocketed support, a breakout past $0.35 could be just a market rebound away, making this dip worth watching.
