Dogecoin Whales Unload 1 Billion DOGE – $5B Market Cap Evaporates in 7 Days
Whale-sized selloffs trigger crypto carnage as Dogecoin faces brutal liquidation
The Great DOGE Dump
Billion-DOGETransfers flood exchanges—panic selling grips retail holders while institutional whales cash out massive positions. Market sentiment flips from 'to the moon' to 'abandon ship' as liquidations cascade through derivative markets.
$5 Billion Vanishes
Market capitalization hemorrhages value faster than a meme stock during earnings season. The once-beloved canine coin shows its teeth, biting investors who bought the hype without checking the fundamentals—because who needs those when you have Elon Musk tweets?
Whale Watching Turns Bloody
Blockchain analytics track the monumental transfers as whale wallets drain into sell orders. Retail traders scramble while the big players demonstrate that in crypto, the house always wins—even when there's no house.
Another week, another brutal reminder that digital assets move faster than traditional finance—and crash twice as hard when the whales decide it's feeding season.
Dogecoin’s Struggles Deepen
Dogecoin’s decline caps a tough year for the once-hyped meme currency, which has now plunged nearly 48% year-to-date. The coin hit a yearly high of $0.41 in January, buoyed by Optimism around Donald Trump’s return to office and his friendly relations with Elon Musk. However, the apparent rift between the two public figures has since hurt sentiment, contributing to DOGE’s prolonged slide.

November’s heavy whale activity has amplified bearish momentum, with investors increasingly losing faith in the token’s long-promised $1 milestone. Analysts say the recent wave of large-scale liquidations signals waning confidence among top holders, leaving the broader dogecoin community unsettled.
What’s Next for DOGE?
With sentiment across the meme coin sector deteriorating, Dogecoin now faces the risk of price stagnation. Once the symbol of retail-driven euphoria in 2021, DOGE has become one of 2025’s weakest performers amid shifting institutional interest toward Bitcoin (BTC), ethereum (ETH), and other large-cap assets.
Analysts note that the broader market rotation away from meme coins has further dampened liquidity and speculative appetite. While a rebound could emerge during a future retail-driven cycle, traders agree that the path to $1 looks increasingly remote.
At the time of writing Dogecoin shows slight rebound trading at $0.16.
