Dogecoin (DOGE) surged to a peak of $0.24 on August 23, posting its largest single-day move in recent months. Trading volume nearly doubled the recent average, while whale activity and institutional participation signaled a shift in market dynamics.
DOGE’s price rose 8%, moving from $0.22 to $0.24 within a $0.02 range, according to market trackers. Volume climbed to 4.27 billion tokens at its highest point, almost quadruple the typical hourly rates. A spokesperson stated the sharpest price movement occurred at 14:00 GMT, when DOGE spiked from $0.21 to $0.23. A late-session increase pushed the price to $0.24, with 28.1 million in volume traded at 04:52 GMT.
Between August and late August, large wallet holders—often called whales—added about 680 million DOGE, pushing institutional flows upward despite ongoing fluctuations from retail investors. Support for DOGE held firm at $0.21 after an intraday retest, with resistance strengthening at the $0.24 mark.
Recent regulatory and industry news contributed to the upbeat tone. The Federal Reserve indicated a milder approach toward crypto banking requirements, and Wyoming launched the nation’s first state-backed stablecoin. SoFi became the first U.S. bank to connect with Bitcoin’s Lightning Network, further encouraging institutional adoption of digital assets. Additionally, Thumzup finalized a $50 million acquisition of mining company Dogehash, creating what is described as the largest Dogecoin mining venture.
Analysts note that consecutive higher lows suggest an ongoing trend of buying momentum for DOGE. Breaking the $0.24 resistance could lead to further price gains, while failing to hold could see renewed tests of the $0.21 support level.
Traders are monitoring if DOGE can establish $0.24 as a new baseline, the effect of Wyoming’s stablecoin on liquidity, and the response of futures activity after this spot-market-driven rally.
