Whale transactions and their <a href="https://www.newsbtc.com/news/dogecoin/dogecoin-whales-fill-up-bags-as-doge-price-dips-5/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">effects on other traders </a>cannot be overstated. Such huge holdings belonging to one entity would make the individual one of the most influential meme coin holders. A decision to sell a major part of the holdings would have profound effects on the price of DOGE, SHIB, and other memecoins. <img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="size-full" src="https://www.tradingview.com/x/BDFLwLKi/" width="1835" height="883">
Given the substantial holdings of both addresses “DEgDVF” and “0x40B3,” it is safe to assume that both unknown addresses could as well belong to Robinhood itself. The transfer could just be a strategic movement into cold storage by the crypto exchange.
Regardless of the exact identity of the wallet, the movement of such large quantities of DOGE and SHIB tokens has implications for the market. The market is slowly moving <a href="https://bitcoinist.com/heres-why-dogecoin-and-shiba-inu-price-surged/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">into another bullish state</a>, and the substantial reduction in the supply of these tokens on the Robinhood exchange contributes to a decrease in selling pressure.
At the time of writing, Dogecoin (DOGE) was trading at $0.1313, reflecting an increase of 3.5% over the past 24 hours. Shiba Inu (SHIB), on the other hand, is trading at $0.00001791, showing a more modest rise of 0.5% within the same 24-hour period. In other news, on-chain data shows that DOGE whales have been <a href="https://bitcoinist.com/dogecoin-whales-buying-millions/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">quietly buying</a> up millions of Dogecoins.
