Dogecoin (DOGE) — Onchain News & Whale Tracking

T. Rowe Price responds to the inclusion of Dogecoin in its actively managed ETF: Mature meme coins with a history and market capitalization should not be excluded.

T. Rowe Price launched the industry’s first actively managed multi-token spot crypto ETF (ticker: TKNZ) in July. What caught the market’s attention wasn’t just its core allocation of roughly 60% to Bitcoin and Ethereum, but the fund’s inclusion of meme coins—currently Dogecoin (DOGE) at a ~1.26% weighting. Blue Macellari, the firm’s head of digital assets, led this strategy, whose core philosophy holds that true active management should not exclude mature meme coins with established history and market cap out of “intellectual arrogance”; if a coin has momentum or can boost portfolio performance, it should be added to give investors full market exposure, rather than only selecting “respectable” assets. Macellari further noted that meme coin trading is the most authentic “stress test” for blockchain networks: when a chain sees a meme coin boom, it best validates its scalability, near-instant settlement, low transaction costs, and reliability during congestion—all critical for the future large-scale adoption of stablecoins, as networks need to efficiently process large transfers worth hundreds of millions of dollars while also handling small payments of just a few dollars at low cost. T. Rowe Price evaluates tokens via a three-layer framework: blockchain technology and token economic models, ecosystem growth and adoption, and market momentum (including community sentiment on platforms like Crypto Twitter). The firm argues that sound judgment and active decision-making are more valuable in crypto assets than in any other asset class, and forecasts further segmentation of the crypto ETF market. The ETF currently holds 5 to 15 cryptocurrencies, with its investable scope set to expand as more tokens meet the SEC’s general listing standards.

Ansem responds to creator token controversy: Won't rug pull, cites Dogecoin and BONK to illustrate his philosophy

Crypto KOL Ansem has responded to the controversy surrounding the recent "creator token" trend. He admitted he was previously cautious about celebrities issuing tokens because he mistakenly assumed they would share his moral standards and wouldn’t "rug pull" for millions of dollars. "That assumption was wrong, but I won’t make the same mistake again," he said, stressing he is not a celebrity and has no plans to rug pull. Ansem noted he believes there is a mutually beneficial way to issue tokens: attract new users to the crypto industry, let people participate via tradable assets, provide liquidity for veteran crypto traders at the bear market bottom, and then channel the resulting attention to truly meaningful projects and teams in the space. He cited Dogecoin and BONK as examples: Dogecoin, which started from zero, still boasts a $11 billion market cap today and was a major user acquisition milestone for crypto; BONK revived the Solana ecosystem at the lowest point after the FTX collapse and airdropped tokens to core developers and teams. Ansem also disclosed he entered the crypto space in 2017, quit his software engineering job in 2021 to focus fully on crypto, and now co-founded trading app Bullpen.fi and hosts a podcast. He emphasized this is the first project he has led, where he controls the majority of token supply; multiple "degen coins" he previously supported were "dumped" after anonymous teams hoarded tokens in advance and hyped them using his influence.

Privacy Coin Continues to Receive Inflows, HYPE Market Cap Once Surpasses Dogecoin

May 26: The privacy coin segment led losses, wiping out much of the cryptocurrency market’s recent gains. Data from HTX shows ZEC dropped as much as 5.2% to hit $619, making it the worst performer among the top 20 digital assets by market capitalization—though it remains 8.2% higher over the past seven days. Zcash has been among the top-performing crypto assets in recent weeks. Multicoin Capital’s disclosure of its ZEC holdings earlier this month, paired with growing broader interest in privacy coins, has drawn institutional attention to ZEC. Analysts note that this ~5% pullback, following a sharp rally, is largely a profit-taking move rather than new selling pressure; core buyers of privacy coins have been adding to positions throughout the uptrend, not offloading them. Hyperliquid’s HYPE token briefly overtook Dogecoin in market cap during Asian trading hours before pulling back. HYPE fell 4% to $59, while Dogecoin (DOGE) slipped 0.8% to $0.1009. Fueled by last week’s launch of per
