Dogwifhat: To the Moon… Or Just Another Fool’s Errand? 🚀

by

Well, I’ll be hornswoggled! It appears these here “memecoins” – a curious invention of the modern age, I must say – are havin’ a bit of a jig. The whole crypto market, bless its unpredictable heart, perked up a tad, and our friend the dogwifhat [WIF] – yes, a dog with a hat, don’t ask – managed to climb about 13% in the last day. A marvel, truly. 🧐

But don’t go spendin’ your hard-earned dollars just yet. Seems this WIF ain’t exactly runnin’ a race, more like strollin’ in circles. It’s been trapped in a right tight spot for quite a spell, a consolidation range, they call it. Fancy words for ‘not goin’ nowhere fast.’

WIF tests wedge resistance

Now, if you look at a chart-and I confess, charts confuse me somethin’ fierce-you’ll see this WIF has been dancin’ ’round a wedge pattern since last May. A wedge, mind you, is just a fancy way of sayin’ it’s stuck between a rock and a hard place. It’s got some gumption, that’s for sure, with indicators pointin’ upwards, but breakin’ free from this 7-month slump? That’s a tall order, even for a dog in a hat.

The Stochastic Momentum Index, a contraption dreamed up by some fella with too much time on his hands, says things are gettin’ a bit overheated, but still looks cheerful. And the Chaikin Money Flow? Why, folks are shovelin’ money into this thing like it’s gold! Two whales-big spenders, these whales-dropped over $2.5 million on WIF in the last couple of days.

Which suggests a breakout might be comin’. Or maybe not. Sometimes things just stay stuck. It’s the Great American Way. 🤷

Funding rates turn green as OI spikes 

The fellas tradin’ with borrowed money seem hopeful, too. These “Funding Rates” have turned positive, meanin’ they’re willin’ to pay a premium just to bet on WIF goin’ up. Seems a bit reckless, if you ask me.

And “Open Interest” (whatever that is) jumped from a measly $55 million to nearly $100 million! Binance is holdin’ the biggest pile of this interest – seems like folks trust them more than the others, or maybe they just have the fanciest billboards.

All this points to a potential breakout. But hold your horses…

Holders selling their WIF tokens

Here’s where things get peculiar. More folks are holdin’ WIF than before-around 247,849 of ’em, according to Solscan-but they’re also sellin’ it! 😳 Now, that’s just plain contradictory, ain’t it?

Dune Analytics-another of these fancy-named doohickeys-says that folks are sellin’ more than buyin’, which throws a wrench in the whole breakout idea. It’s like tryin’ to build a house on quicksand.

So, the feelin’s all mixed up. A bit bullish, a bit bearish, and a whole lot of confusion. Sellin’ could spoil all the fun, and frankly, I’d wouldn’t be surprised if it did.

Final Thoughts

  • It appears Mr. WIF is caught in the usual tussle ‘tween hopeful predictions and cautious investors.
  • If folks keep bettin’ the farm without real buyers, expect a bumpy ride near that resistance level.
