As seen in the chart above, experts identified a pattern of alternating “dump” and “accumulation” cycles in the Shiba-Inu-themed cryptocurrency. While DOGE is currently in the accumulation phase, it remains to be seen how long this phase lasts before whales take profits.

Large wallet investors have continued their accumulation of the Shiba Inu rival throughout the accumulation phase. Large wallet investors added over 10 million DOGE worth $123.1 million within three months. 

What’s next for Dogecoin price

Dogecoin price is currently in an accumulation phase, according to analysts at Santiment. Post this accumulation phase, if DOGE price sustains its uptrend, a bullish breakout is likely. The price chart below shows that the Dogecoin price broke out of its downtrend. 

The Relative Strength Index (RSI) shows a bullish divergence. This is typically considered a bullish sign for DOGE price. DOGE price would face resistance at the Fibonacci Retracement levels at $0.21, $0.31, $0.47, and $0.59 before hitting its bullish target.

It's yet to be determined if DOGE will continue its upward trend and generate more profits for its holders, and also whether it will trigger a surge in other meme coins related to Shiba Inu.Crypto analyst @WorldOfCharts1 has set a target of $0.80 for the meme coin.
