Dogecoin Madness: $2.37 Billion in 24 Hours—What’s Going On? 🚀

by

Right, so Dogecoin traders are apparently having a field day, throwing around $2.37 billion like it’s Monopoly money. 🤑 According to CoinGlass (which sounds like a dodgy pub name), open interest in the OG meme coin has gone up by 3.03% in the last 24 hours, hitting a whopping $2,376,500,726. That’s $2.37 billion for those of us who can’t count commas. After peaking at $5.42 billion in January (because why not?), it dipped to $2.26 billion in February, but now it’s back up again. Because, of course, it is. 📈

Open interest, by the way, is the total amount of unsettled derivatives contracts. A rise in this can mean new money is flooding in, which might confirm existing price trends and predict future volatility. Or it could just mean people are bored and have too much cash to burn. Who knows? 🤷‍♀️

As for the price of Dogecoin, it’s currently sitting at $0.2569 per coin after dipping to $0.255. It’s down by about 2% in the last week, which is basically the crypto equivalent of a mild hangover. 🥴

Crypto markets are moving slower than a sloth on sedatives, thanks to reduced optimism for Fed easing. The January consumer price index report showed a 0.5% monthly gain, pushing the annual inflation rate to 3%. That’s slightly higher than December but lower than the 3.1% figure in January 2024. So, basically, inflation is doing the cha-cha. 💃

Dogecoin Price Action: The Drama Continues

Dogecoin has been sliding down a descending channel pattern, but the bulls are trying to hold the $0.23 support. 🐂

The relief rally might sell for $0.28. If Dogecoin falls from here, it could mean the bears are still in charge. 🐻 Sellers might then try to drag Dogecoin down to $0.20, because why not add a bit more drama? 🎭

On the other hand, if Dogecoin breaks and closes above $0.28, it could indicate strong buying near the support line. In that case, Dogecoin might climb to the 50-day SMA at $0.32, where the bears are expected to put up a robust defense. Because, you know, bears love a good fight. 🥊
