Blockchain tracking platform Whale Alert, which tracks down large cryptocurrency transfers, has spotted an astounding Dogecoin transaction made by an anonymous whale from a popular investment and trading app.
This weekend has been rich in large meme coin transfers with roughly 1.6 trillion Shiba Inu tokens moved a day earlier.
That huge DOGE transfer sent ripples through the crypto community as mixed reactions to it began to emerge on the X platform.
200 million DOGE taken off Robinhood amid 13% price surge
The above-mentioned data source shared that a cryptocurrency whale made a stunning withdrawal of 200,000,000 DOGE worth $45,746,453 from the popular trading platform Robinhood.
The funds were sent to an unknown blockchain wallet -1pMke, which currently contains 30,237,003,292 Dogecoin valued at $6,891,315,420, according to details obtained from Blockchair.
Earlier this week, popular cryptocurrency analyst Ali Martinez shared on X that on the lower time frames the original meme crypto Dogecoin was consolidating within a descending triangle pattern. He stated that after breaking above the $0.198 resistance level DOGE had high chances of showing a 10% rise and thus reaching $0.220.
He also pointed out that should there be a sustained close above the $0.20 level, DOGE could see a parabolic bull run.
Over the last 24 hours, Dogecoin staged a massive rise of 13.28%, reaching $0.23200. As of this writing, it is changing hands slightly lower — at $0.22955.

An anonymous whale stands behind all the three transactions, according Whale Alert.

By now, after a small rebound SHIB is trading at $0.00002262 per coin.
