The bearish move emerges as the dog-themed token experiences notable downward pressure from prevalent market conditions.
Meanwhile, the magnified liquidations from WIF holders catalyzed the double-digit loss.

Risk-off sentiment in the meme coin market
Kaiko data shows investors consider themed assets relatively risky, with hiked (over 2bp) bid-ask spreads.
That comes despite increased liquidity in the meme assets sector.
While heightened liquidity translates to tighter bid-ask spreads, the narrative differs with themed digital tokens.
Record-high liquidity makes it easier to trade meme coins.
Kaiko revealed the combined liquidity for DOGE, SHIB, PEPE, BONK, WIF, FLOKI, MEME, BABYDOGE, GROK, HarryPotterObamaSonic, and JarryPotterObamaSonic10INU, recently surged to $128 million.
That means investors can execute massive orders (smoothly) at stable prices.
Such sentiments show investors still consider meme cryptos risky due to massive volatility despite heightened liquidity provision by market makers.
That will likely trigger near-term declines in themed digital tokens.
Moreover, CryptoQuant’s CEO Ki Young Ju stated that meme token dominance in the crypto space has begun to dwindle.

He added that trends between 2022 and 2024 show investors will finally switch from gambling to market fundamentals.
Ju advised investors to refrain from dog-themed cryptocurrencies as they have reached the end of the road.
WIF price forecast
Dogwifhat demonstrates bearishness as it hovers below the vital $2 price mark.
Whale dump, risk-off sentiments, meme assets’ waning dominance, and Bitcoin’s bearishness below $65K could see WIF plunging below $1.
