Trader Notes: Trader Tardigrade encouraged resilience, saying, "The harder the battle, the sweeter the victory," as Dogecoin retests a key support level from its previous consolidation zone.

He noted that DOGE has now formed a second RSI bullish divergence. The first divergence was weaker, with price making a lower low and RSI remaining flat.

The second, however, shows classic reversal signals—price made a lower low, while RSI made a higher low, suggesting a potential shift in trend.

Shib Knight observed that SHIB is tightly coiling within a falling wedge pattern, often a precursor to a breakout. He believes the meme coin's prolonged squeeze points to accumulation ahead of a major move, potentially toward new all-time highs.

Statistics: On April 7, Whale Alert tracked a massive transfer of 300 million DOGE (worth approximately $41.7 million) from an unknown wallet to Binance.

Another 22 million DOGE ($3.07 million) was sent to a different unknown wallet, which now holds a staggering 4.29 billion DOGE—valued at over $605 million.

Shibburn data revealed a jaw-dropping 2,060,231.2% spike in SHIB's burn rate within the past 24 hours.

This surge brought a dose of optimism amid a broader market meltdown across both crypto and traditional finance.

Shibariumscan showed that daily transactions dipped slightly from 4.4 million to 3.8 million—still a healthy level of network activity.

IntoTheBlock reported a 47.8% jump in SHIB's large transaction volume. Transactions exceeding $100,000 increased from 29 to 43 in a single day, signaling renewed whale interest.
