The movement of such vast amounts of Dogecoin, especially through a mainstream platform like Robinhood, highlights the growing interest and accessibility of Dogecoin to retail investors.
The timing of these transactions aligns with Dogecoin's impressive market performance.
At the time of writing, Dogecoin was trading at $0.2091, up by almost 29% in the last seven days.
Moreover, the broader market's interest in meme coins and speculative assets has played a crucial role in Dogecoin's recent rally.
Last week, the meme coin, often championed by X owner Elon Musk, saw a remarkable $800 million increase in open interest. The surge resulted from speculation that Dogecoin could become the preferred currency for X's payment ecosystem.
