Dogecoin’s acceptance on the cryptocurrency market has increased in recent months, and its value has reached new heights.<\/p>\n
At the time of writing, DOGE<\/a> is trading at $$0.0843, down nearly 12% in the last seven days. Though losing some aggressiveness in the last week, the meme coin has been able to maintain a 5% increase in the last 30 days, data from Coingecko shows, Sunday.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Within the last 72 hours, well over $34 million worth of Doge has been moved to different unknown addresses, according to monitoring by whale tracker DogeWhaleAlert.<\/p>\n Now, this figure has just ballooned, as Whale Alert has detected three massive transfers<\/a> of Dogecoin (DOGE) worth a total of 1.2 billion coins.<\/p>\n These latest transfers – whose source and destination are unknown and which were executed without any glitches\u00a0– further support the conviction that cryptocurrencies are the future of finance.<\/p>\n According to the foremost tracker of major cryptocurrency transactions, the transfers – each worth 400 million DOGE – have got the crypto world enthusiastic as they total about $100 million.<\/p>\n However, what has totally surprised the cryptocurrency community is the transaction charge. The transfers were completed for a modest $0.16 in DOGE – a cost that no traditional bank could ever exceed.<\/p>\n Transaction fees have been a major worry for users in the crypto market for a very long time. Since January 2021, the average Dogecoin transaction cost has been somewhat more than $0.44, relative to Ethereum.<\/p>\n Ethereum tops the transaction fees department.\u00a0 According to on-chain data, a typical transaction on Ethereum costs more than\u00a0$1.6, but the same transaction on other protocols can be as high as\u00a0$9.<\/p>\n Dogecoin and the broader cryptocurrency market began 2023 on a positive note, with the dog-themed coin’s price exhibiting a rising trend. However, Dogecoin has experienced a steep decline during the past week, undoing its earlier advances.<\/p>\n Two whale addresses have received a total of 11,238,539 DOGE ($922,055) and 5,000,000 DOGE ($410,285) since Friday, when more huge transaction transfers were detected on the network.<\/p>\n The increase in DOGE transfers from top whale accounts may imply a bullish near-term prognosis for the popular meme coin.<\/p>\n Market observers hypothesize that larger interests are driving the massive crypto movement. Traders with long positions in the market may be aiming to increase their holdings.<\/p>\n <\/p>\nDogecoin Whale Transfers A Total Of 1.2 Billion Coins\u00a0<\/strong><\/h2>\n
