Dogecoin’s price may be shaky, but whales just made a move big enough to flip the entire narrative. More than 27.4 billion DOGE has been quietly scooped up at the $0.08 level. Forming a support zone so strong it’s now the biggest bullish signal DOGE has seen in weeks.

Dogecoin Finds a Lifeline as Whales Build a Support Zone

The general crypto market is facing a bear market and top assets are among the worst hit. With the uncertainties surrounding the industry, every asset needs strong support off of which to bounce.

Analysts say Dogecoin is in a downward trend with multiple corrections that have made it difficult to hold $0.165, making any strong support a major help.

Meanwhile, Bitcoin, the biggest crypto asset, is yet to establish such support and analysts believe it risks dropping to $85,000 if the bearish trend persists.

Fortunately, Bitcoin whales are also aggressively buying, which increases the chances of finding a worthy support for a rebound.

Are Dogecoin ETFs the Catalyst That Could Shock Everyone?

At the time of this report, Dogecoin has dropped below the $0.165 price and is trading at $0.156. While analysts see danger ahead, could a spot ETF save the day?

There are high expectations that the first Dogecoin spot ETFs by Grayscale and Bitwise may get approved by next week.

ETF approvals haven’t always resulted in assets rallying, but Dogecoin supporters are hopeful that these would make a difference, at least in the long term.

Even if the price doesn’t moon immediately, ETF approval may serve as the foundation for the next major growth cycle. Especially paired with whale accumulation at such a strong support level.
