<p>In an unprecedented twist of events, amidst the broader downtrend witnessed across the cryptocurrency market, the prices of renowned meme coins Dogecoin (DOGE) and Shiba Inu (SHIB) noted a substantial plunge today, nabbing significant investor attention. This plunge witnessed by the meme coins comes riding a plethora of on-chain and market dynamics hovering over the crypto horizon. Here’s a closer look into factors that potentially caused DOGE’s &amp; SHIB’s prices to dip today.</p> 
<h2 id="altcoins-mimic-btc-s-notable-slip">Altcoins Mimic BTC’s Notable Slip</h2> 
<p>Intriguingly, <a href="https://coingape.com/500-million-liquidated-as-bitcoin-btc-price-tanks-5-5-whats-next/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Bitcoin</a> jotted a remarkable price correction today, as its price slipped back to the $66K mark. As of writing, the BTC token traded at $66,639, causing a turbulent sentiment shift across the broader crypto market.</p> 
<p>The notable plunge witnessed by BTC birthed primarily from phenomenal liquidation witnessed today, worth $131.92 million, per Coinglass data. Meanwhile, other coins followed this liquidation chronicle, with meme coins like DOGE &amp; SHIB mimicking and registering colossal liquidations.</p> 
<p>Dogecoin recorded liquidations worth $14.76 million, with $11.69 million in long positions and $3.07 million in short positions. Whereas, Shiba Inu witnessed liquidations worth $2.32 million, with $2.21 million in long positions and $108.63K in short positions. This substantial closing off of positions for settlements primarily aligns with the dip in DOGE &amp; SHIB prices.</p>

<p>Meanwhile, the crypto market saw 139,561 traders liquidated in the past 24 hours, with the total liquidations evaluated as $428.29 million. The largest single liquidation order took place on OKX – ETH-USD-SWAP worth $7.48 million.</p> 
<h2 id="derivatives-data-analysis">Derivatives Data Analysis</h2> 
<p>In the interim, derivatives data flagged out by <a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.coinglass.com/" target="_blank">Coinglass</a> showcased a substantial dip in DOGE and SHIB open interest and OI-weighted funding rate, adding up to the price dip observed today.</p> 
<p>DOGE’s open interest dipped 11.68% to $1.67 billion, while its OI-weighted funding rate slipped to 0.0179%. SHIB noted an 11.07% drop in its open interest, reaching $85.77 million, while its OI-weighted funding rate slipped to 0.0317%.</p> 
<p>This showcased a bearish sentiment among crypto market traders and investors for the meme-based tokens as fewer traders are willing to enter new positions or maintain existing ones, potentially driving the prices down.</p>

<h2 id="doge-shib-tumble">DOGE &amp; SHIB Tumble</h2> 
<p>As of writing, the <a href="https://coingape.com/price/dogecoin/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Dogecoin token’s price</a> has plummeted 10.62% in the past 24 hours and is currently trading at $0.1829. On the other hand, the <a href="https://coingape.com/price/shiba-inu/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Shiba Inu token</a> registered a drop of 8.37% in the past 24 hours and is currently resting at $0.00002635.</p> 
<p>Intriguingly, despite the drop in prices, the DOGE and SHIB 24-hour trading volume illustrated notable jumps, underscoring the heightened selling pressure when aligned with liquidations. However, the RSI for both the tokens hinted at a neutral market sentiment, with the asset neither being overbought nor oversold.</p> 
<p>This ignited speculations over future price action shifts, as these tokens may witness a shift in momentum anytime ahead. Although broader technicals for Shiba Inu portray a selling sentiment in the market, adding up to SHIB’s fall, DOGE’s technicals painted a buying sentiment within the market, fueling speculations orbiting a buy-the-dip market sentiment.</p> 
<p>Meanwhile, a Dogecoin whale accumulated 134.82 million DOGE, followed by a SHIB whale’s 461.63 billion coins accumulation. This, in turn, curated investor curiosity over whales’ confidence in the asset, potentially signaling rising price actions ahead.</p>
