Key takeaways

dogwifhat has been consolidating near its $1.30 resistance level. On the other hand, DOGE’s charts have seen some exhaustion. This may set up WIF to capitalize on DOGE’s weakness and potentially lead the next memecoin rally.

At the time of writing, four of the top ten gainers on the weekly charts were memecoins. This observation seemed to line up with BTC’s tight-range chop just below its local highs. Especially since it is a setup that tends to fuel speculative appetite across the board. 

In that light, Dogecoin [DOGE] and Floki [FLOKI] led the charge, ripping by 40%+ against BTC, showing strong relative strength. dogwifhat [WIF], while slightly lagging, still put in a 24.31% weekly close.

However, DOGE/BTC just saw a 2.14% intraday rejection off its early-May ceiling. On the contrary, WIF/BTC was in a tight volatility compression phase, mirroring a pattern that preceded its last major breakout.

During that move, WIF exploded by 138% off the $0.56-base, well ahead of DOGE’s 48% push in the same timeframe, right when BTC was chopping between the $102k–$105k zone. 

Now, with WIF’s holder count breaking above 250k and on-chain flows seeing steady inflows and active accumulation, the momentum under the surface may be far from over. 

So, is WIF ready to front-run the next rotation in the memecoin cycle?

dogwifhat lining up for the next leg?

The memecoin’s run against Bitcoin [BTC] has been showing up in the charts too. 

Following a 32% weekly rally, an overextended RSI coupled with significant whale outflows means a potential retracement ahead for DOGE.

Meanwhile, dogwifhat has been locked in a tense struggle at the $1.30 supply wall, a ceiling it hasn’t cracked since early Q1. Twice in May, the price tested that level with heavy upper wicks – A sign that sellers aren’t giving up easily.

In the middle of all this, smart money accumulation has accelerated too. The dominant whale cohort (10 million–100 million tokens) added a significant 670 billion coins this week – Hinting at strong conviction.

Such a divergence is significant. While DOGE whales might be exhausted, dogwifhat whales have been accumulating near the $1.30 resistance while treating it as a strong support base.

If this setup sustains itself, WIF stands to benefit from DOGE/BTC’s overextended RSI and resistance rejection. This will position the altcoin as a likely out-performer in the upcoming memecoin rally.
