Why Did MKR Dip 5%? Whales, Wallets & Wonders; The mystery unraveled! 🐋💸

  • Fresh wallets peeled off some MKR from Binance—about 1,502 tokens worth roughly $2.67 million—because who doesn’t love a little drama before breakfast?
  • A bullish breakout from the long gloomy downtrend has everyone dreaming of $2400, $3500, and then maybe even $4000—because why aim low?

Once upon a rebrand—fancy that!—Maker [MKR], now whimsically renamed SKY (because who doesn’t like a bit of sky-high hope), allowed traders to stake away happily while the whales (big fish, bigger wallets) jumped into the pool with more fervor than a shark at a fish buffet.

But hold your daft hats! Despite all the excitement, MKR decided to dip 5%, volume shrank 34%, and the market paused for dramatic effect. Classic reality check for the crypto rollercoaster, folks.

Whale action causes MKR to do the limbo—how low can it go?

On the 5th of June, two new big wallets—“0x1B8…6e172” and “0x3E5…0a2”—sent a hefty 1,502 MKR (worth about $2.67 million to your average number cruncher) straight to Binance, because, obviously, what’s better than a giant dump with an air of confidence?

Both of these financial giants staked all their tokens, shouting at the world, “We believe in Maker’s destiny!” or perhaps just really enjoyed the thrill of locking up their loot.

Why? Maybe they’re voting with their wallets on future MakerDAO decisions—or maybe just trying to make the next rise happen. Locking funds makes MKR scarcer than a unicorn in a haystack, which could strengthen the network (or at least look impressive).

Meanwhile, MKR broke free from the shackles of early 2024’s downtrend. It soared past the trendline like a caffeine-fueled kite and is now eyeing the $1,783 mark, valiantly attempting to reach higher and higher.

Next stop? Maybe $2,435—the level that once stopped it in its tracks—or even the mighty $3,500 and the legendary $4,099 (a brick wall in the past that now might just be a speed bump). Keep your fingers crossed, or maybe just your opinion, either way.

But beware! Should MKR slip back below the breakout point and tumble under $1,500, it might test the old downtrend line and give traders whiplash—because nothing says ‘fun’ like a 2024 déjà vu experience.

The weekly candlestick charts are showing buyers gaining strength—they broke above the higher low, like a hero in a comic book, promising more bullish adventures (or at least a few more ups). Unless MKR descends below that trendline, the trend could stay all shiny and bullish, climbing higher like a cat chased up a tree.

If prices fall below the support, well, all bets are off, and the adventure plot thickens.

Active wallets are making money, or pretending to—who can tell?

According to IntoTheBlock, nearly 60% of MKR wallets are “In The Money,” which sounds great until you realize 23.53% are “Out Of The Money,” probably waiting for that elusive moonshot.

Support levels? Between $1,064.60 and $1,671.80—places where traders hope not to get their toes wet—and resistance zones stretching from $1,774.27 all the way up to $5,645.01, where lost wallets might be looking for their keys.

Currently, MKR is hanging around the $1,752 mark, in wallet limbo—some are happy, some are sweating. A push higher could see more buying, or at least a decent excuse for a party.

The recent ‘meh’ in MKR, according to CryptoQuant’s Spot Taker CVD indicator, echoes the drama-filled springs of 2021 and late 2023—like a bad soap opera, but with more charts.

After turning neutral—like a referee in a hockey game—the market either chills out or gets ready for the next epic rally. Either way, hold onto your hats, because the crypto soap continues!
