The trading volume spiked by 36.63%, reaching $954.5 million. This increase in trading could mean more people are getting interested in the coin.

Dogecoin whales are in control
While many small investors own Dogecoin, whales are in control of the market.
Further, AMBCrypto’s analysis of the IntoTheBlock data shows that 62% of all Dogecoin is in the hands of these large investors. This indicates that a small number of people could have a big effect on its price.
Mixed signals in the market
Interestingly, even though most holders are in profit, heatmap liquidity data from Coinglass suggests some investors are optimistic about the price going down.
This difference between holder profits and trader interests creates an unusual situation for DOGE.

With so many addresses in profit, there is a chance Dogecoin’s price could rally. When lots of holders are making money, it sometimes leads to more buying.
However, the negative positions held by some traders make it hard to predict what will happen next.

What’s next for DOGE?
Right now, Dogecoin is in an interesting spot. Most holders are in profit, but some investors have a bearish bias. The fact that big investors control so much Dogecoin adds another layer of uncertainty.
Dogecoin’s next move will likely depend on how these different factors cancel out
