On-chain data shows the Dogecoin whales have gone on a buying spree recently, a sign that could be bullish for the memecoin’s price.Dogecoin Whales Have Accumulated During The Past WeekIn a new post on X, analyst Ali Martinez has talked about the latest trend in the holdings of the Dogecoin whales. The metric shared by the analyst is the “Supply Distribution” from on-chain analytics firm Santiment, which tells us about the total amount of DOGE supply that a particular wallet group is holding right now.Addresses or investors are put into these cohorts based on the number of tokens that they are carrying in their balance.
