Popular on-chain data aggregator Glassnode revealed that the original meme cryptocurrency, Dogecoin (DOGE), has suffered drastic losses over the past 24 hours, outperformed here by the two largest top cryptos, Bitcoin and Ethereum.
Bitcoin and Ethereum beat DOGE in losses
Glassnode has reported that over the past day, Dogecoin become the only top 10 asset that has shown higher realized losses than profits — $132 million of losses vs. $5 million profits.
Compared to DOGE, Bitcoin and Ethereum have displayed losses of just 2.5% and 52% of their profits — $33 million versus $1.3 billion for BTC and $18.4 million versus $35.2 million for ETH.
Unlike Bitcoin and Ethereum, Dogecoin can be vulnerable to meme-driven volatility and the absence of any serious fundamentals. BTC and ETH are showing much stronger market resilience, largely thanks to wider adoption, including institutional and spot ETFs, in particular.
Regular acquisitions of Bitcoin and Ethereum by ETFs and treasury companies confirm that.
