After news of Mt. Gox’s payouts began, the price of Dogecoin plummeted significantly alongside Bitcoin. The market decline coincided with increased whale activity and liquidations.
On Friday, the cryptocurrency market experienced a sharp decline, affecting major altcoins such as Dogecoin. Data from Whale Alert confirmed substantial transactions: 4 billion DOGE ($41.08 thousand) were transferred to Binance, with an additional 503 thousand tokens moved elsewhere, sparking speculation of sell-offs.
Dogecoin co-founder Billy Marcus (Shibetoshi Nakamoto) commented on Dogecoin’s decline compared to Bitcoin, highlighting its symbolic strength of financial freedom weakening with price drops.
