WIF is a popular Solana-based meme coin that has made waves in the cryptocurrency space with its outstanding performance driven by bullish market sentiment. However, WIF’s rally today surprised everyone as the price rose by more than 40% in the past 24 hours, indicating a potential upward trend and sparking widespread speculation.
With this new bullish momentum, experts believe that WIF may hit a new all-time high (ATH), thereby driving further market growth. It is worth mentioning that SOL-related meme coins have been very strong recently.
Coinbase WIF Listing Announcement
The memecoin supercycle continues, with memes of all sizes starting to receive bids after Coinbase announced it would list PEPE and Dogwifhat (WIF).
On November 14, 2024, Coinbase, the third largest centralized exchange by market share, surged 69% and WIF surged 40% after announcing the listing of PEPE on social media with a simple frog emoji, and then four hours later posted another post asking “What rhymes with frog?” informing its users that they would be listing Dogwifhat (WIF) on the exchange.
However, before Coinbase announced the launch of WIF, it had already announced the launch of PEPE, and the release of these news caused the prices of both meme coins to rise sharply. In addition to Coinbase, the overall price trend of WIF is relatively optimistic and has shown a clear upward momentum.
Listing on the largest U.S. cryptocurrency exchange enables more users to participate and contributes to this significant momentum.
Dogwifhat sees resurgence in buying pressure
The quick rebound in WIF could be related to the rise in Chaikin Money Flow (CMF). On the daily chart, CMF has been trading at high levels.
The CMF is a technical indicator that measures the flow of money into and out of an asset over a specific period of time. It helps assess the strength of a trend, the balance of buying and selling pressure, and overall market sentiment.
A positive CMF reading indicates strong buying pressure, while a negative reading indicates selling pressure. Therefore, the current reading on the WIF/USD chart indicates that buying pressure exceeds selling pressure.
If the situation remains the same, then the WIF token price could continue to rise. Subsequently, data from Santiment shows that the funding rate has remained in positive territory. For context, the funding rate is the cost of holding an open position in the perp market.
A positive funding rate means that buyers (longs) are paying sellers (shorts), which helps keep futures prices in line with spot prices. Conversely, a negative funding rate means that shorts are paying longs, and the average sentiment is bearish.
Funding rates for WIF have surged, indicating that traders are optimistic about the recovery of the meme coin. Therefore, if demand increases, the price of WIF is likely to rise and most long positions are likely to be profitable.
Open interest increases
On-chain metrics further support WIF’s positive outlook. According to on-chain analytics firm Coinglass, WIF’s open interest surged by 35%, indicating high trader participation and a significant increase in open interest over the past 24 hours.
The surge in open interest brought the total value to $690 million, the highest level since the token was launched.
WIF technical analysis and upcoming levels
According to the experts’ technical analysis, WIF looks bullish and is currently facing resistance near its all-time high of $4.86. Based on the recent price action, if WIF breaks above the resistance and closes on the daily chart above $4.86, there are high chances of a sharp rise towards the $10 level.
WIF is expected to surpass its all-time high (ATH), similar to PEPE, which surged significantly after its listing and overcame several obstacles. Currently, the meme token is trading above the 200 exponential moving average (EMA) on the daily timeframe, indicating an upward trend.
Dogwifhat’s recent rally suggests strong investor interest and potential for further growth. However, caution is advised due to overbought signals. A breakout above $4 could spark an uptrend until new all-time highs. Sustained momentum will depend on broader market conditions.
