WIF defied the pullback in blue-chip currencies like Bitcoin BTC/USD and Dogecoin DOGE/USD, which fell 1.88% and 6.51%, respectively.
Notably, the memecoin's Open Interest slid 2.34% in the last 24 hours, according to Coinglass. Typically, a decline in Open Interest combined with a price increase implies that shorts were covering their positions.
