The spike in Dogwifhat’s price occurred shortly after tech billionaire Elon Musk tweeted an image of his dog garbed in a St. Patrick’s Day hat. 

St. Patrick’s Day is a cultural and religious holiday celebrated on March 17, commemorating St. Patrick, the patron saint of Ireland. 

Wearing green hats and other attire is a symbol of the occasion, representing Irish tradition, folklore, and the association of green with the Emerald Isle.

The WIF token features marketing materials depicting dogs wearing hats, similar to Musk’s tweeted image, which included a Shiba Inu dog among the three hatted canines showcased.

This comes with a surge in trading activity for meme coins on the Solana network. 

Data provided by DefiLlama showed that decentralized exchange (DEX) volume on Solana SOL/USD reached a record $3.802 billion on Saturday.

Specifically, WIF reached over $568 million in trading volume within 24 hours, outstripping BONK BONK/USD, another dog-themed token, which recorded $359 million during the same period.

Last week, a cryptocurrency trader took to realizing profits from their Dogwifhat investment. 

By selling 25% of their Dogwifhat holdings at an average price of $2.95, the trader collected $1.65 million. This transaction accounted for roughly 85% of the individual’s total net worth. 

“Hanging on to as much as I can for as long as I can tolerate.”

At the time of writing, the price of WIF was $2.93, up 32% in the last 24 hours, according to Coinstats data.
