The broader digital currency ecosystem slipped, with Bitcoin (BTC) leading the losses and altcoins followed suit. However, the price reversals have pushed many digital currencies in search of a price floor that can fuel their imminent rebound. In light of this, data from IntoTheBlock (ITB) shows that Bitcoin, Dogecoin (ADA) and Cardano (ADA) are relying on their whales to fuel the rebound in the near term.
BTC, DOGE and ADA whale similarity
According to ITB data, the three digital currencies have a similar whale activity trend. Large transactions worth over $100,000 on the Bitcoin network have rallied by more than 78% in the past 24 hours, and according to the data, this large transaction volume is now worth $43.63 billion.
Dogecoin whales also went on a rampage, with a 24-hour growth rate of 58.67% to $1.85 billion. Cardano also tagged along with the trend, with whale transactions soaring as high as 28.19% in 24 hours to register a volume of $7.23 billion.
Beyond the whale activity correlation, the three profiled assets do not have an active burn mechanism. This means that large transactions are one way to drive price growth across the board.
When rebound?
It is worth noting that metrics change as much as the broader market is volatile. The boost in whale transactions might help to reverse the current trend that has seen the price of BTC drop by 0.93% to $66,896.02.
Cardano might also boost the current ADA whale boost with potential positive ecosystem sentiment that has trailed the community since the Chang hard fork upgrade. As of this writing, the ADA price has become $0.3576, with a relatively flat growth rate.
In all, Dogecoin might also chart its growth surge at a time when the meme coin is receiving a unique boost from investors. For now, the top meme coin is looking at a rebound from its current level at $0.1392 amid a 2.39% drop.
