Dogecoin Rally Intensifies: Eyes Set On Historic New Highs

After a retracement from its current high of $0.22960, the price of Dogecoin (DOGE) looks like it is not yet done as the memecoin bounced back and moving toward its current high.

Dogecoin Price Technical Analysis

Dogecoin is one of the few memecoins that have captured the hearts of many crypto investors. Like Shiba Inu and Pepecoin (PEPE), Dogecoin is backed up by a strong and exciting community which has played a huge role in its success so far. 

At the time of writing, the price of DOGE was trading around $0.19713 and was up by over 5% in the last 24 hours. Also, the price is currently trading above the 100-day moving average with very strong bullish momentum in the 4-hour timeframe.

The MACD indicator in the 4-hour timeframe suggests an upward spike. This is so because the MACD line and the MACD signal that was trending below the zero line have both crossed, heading toward the MACD zero line. 

If the MACD line and the MACD signal line manage to cross above the MACD zero, Dogecoin might move higher to create a new high. Meanwhile, the MACD histogram is already trending above the zero line which suggests a bullish momentum.

The Relative Strength Index (RSI) on the 4-hour timeframe also indicates a bullish momentum toward the upward direction as the RSI signal line has crossed above the 50% level and is heading towards the overbought zone. According to the RSI indicator, the strength of the upward movement is still very strong as buyers are still very active in the market.

Potential Retracement On The Downside

Given the price’s previous surge, two major resistance levels and one major support level were created around $0.22960, $0.2244, and $0.19622 respectively. If the price of DOGE manages to move above the resistance level of $0.22441 level, it might move even further upward toward the resistance level of $0.22960. 

At this point, if the price succeeds in breaking above this level, the price might surge higher to create a new high. On the other hand, if the price fails to break above this resistance level, the price might start a new downward movement toward its previous support level of $0.19622. However, a breakout below the $0.19622 level could trigger a new downward trend.

Dogecoin Finds A Bottom: How The 7-Year Cycle Can Send Price To $40

Dogecoin has had a rather interesting week, first rallying to cross $0.2, before correcting back downward and eventually losing support at $0.8. Nevertheless, there is still a lot of steam left in the cryptocurrency it seems, as crypto analysts have identified both a bottom and a 7-year cycle that could send its price as high as $40.

Dogecoin To Bottom Around $0.16

In an analysis posted on X (formerly Twitter), crypto analyst Trader Mayne posited that Dogecoin could find a bottom around $0.16. He explains that this is the level where bulls are mounting support, making it a critical point for the meme coin.

Now, if the bulls are able to hold this support level, it would mean that the DOGE price has eventually found its bottom. However, falling below this support level could be detrimental for the meme coin’s price, as Trader Mayne revealed, leading to an even larger correction from here.

On the flip side, if bulls are able to hold this support, then it could signal a continuation of the bullish trend. The crypto analyst reports that the RR (Risk Ratio) for longs has skewed positive. So, in this case, holding above the $0.16 support and eventually reclaiming the previous local peak just below $0.24, then “the party continues,” the analyst stated.

DOGE Price Headed To $40?

Trader Mayne is not the only crypto analyst who has shown bullishness toward Dogecoin in spite of the decline. Another analyst, identified as Tardigrade, also took to X to share a cycle trend in the DOGE price that they had uncovered.

The crypto analyst titled the trend the “Cycle of 7 years” which predicts a large move up to new all-time high levels for the meme coin. Tardigrade points to the performance of Dogecoin in the seven years leading up to the 2021 surge, a cycle that they believe is set to repeat again.

Given that seven years is a wide range, it means that in 2024, the DOGE price is still just halfway to completing it. From here, it would take another four years for the 7-year cycle to be completed, at the end of which Dogecoin is expected to see a massive surge.

The cycle ends in 2028 and by this time, the crypto analyst expects that the DOGE price will move above $2, then $9, and all the way to $40. They support this with the fact that the DOGE price moved from $0.0007 in 2017, and reached as high as $0.7 in 2021. Given this, the analyst advises crypto investors not to miss the Dogecoin move up.

Memecoins Reign Supreme: CoinGecko Reveals Most Profitable Crypto Narrative Of Q1

In the first quarter of 2024 (Q1), memecoins emerged as the most profitable crypto narrative, delivering massive average returns of 1312.6% across its top tokens, according to a recent study and report conducted by CoinGecko.

This figure far surpassed the returns of other narratives, highlighting the growing popularity and frenzy surrounding memecoins in the cryptocurrency market.

RWA Vs Memecoins

Three newly launched tokens were among the top 10 memecoins by market cap at the end of the quarter: Brett (BRETT), BOOK OF MEME (BOME) and Cat in a dogs world (MEW). 

BRETT generated the highest returns since its launch with a gain of 7727.6%, closely followed by dogwifhat (WIF) with a gain of 2721.2% during the quarter. Notably, the memecoin narrative outperformed other crypto narratives by a significant margin.

memecoins

 

Compared to the second most profitable narrative, RWA, memecoins were 4.6 times more profitable, and their returns were 33.3 times higher than those of the Layer 2 narrative, which experienced the lowest gains in Q1.

The RWA narrative, which stands for “Real-World Assets“, returned 285.6% in Q1. Although it briefly held the title of the most profitable narrative in early February, memecoins and artificial intelligence-based (AI) tokens outperformed RWA in terms of returns. However, RWA managed to regain its position ahead of the AI narrative by the end of March. 

Notable winners in the RWA category included MANTRA (OM) and TokenFi (TOKEN), which posted quarter-to-date (QTD) returns of 1074.4% and 419.7% respectively. XDC Network (XDC) was the only RWA token to decline, falling 15.6% for the quarter.

Artificial intelligence closely followed RWA as the only other narrative to deliver three-digit returns, reaching 222.0% in Q1. All large-cap AI tokens experienced gains, with AIOZ Network (AIOZ) leading the pack at 480.2% and Fetch.ai (FET) following closely at 378.3%. 

Even the lowest gainer in the AI category, OriginTrail (TRAC), returned a respectable 74.9% during the quarter, indicating the overall interest in AI-related tokens.

Layer 1 Tokens Trail Behind

The decentralized finance (DeFi) narrative delivered moderate returns of 98.9% in the first quarter. In late February, DeFi returns were boosted by the Uniswap (UNI) fee switch proposal. DeFi tokens that performed well included Jupiter (JUP) with gains of 125.7%, Maker (MKR) with 121.2%, and The Graph (GRT) with 111.0% QTD.

In contrast, the Layer 1 (L1) narrative delivered relatively lower profitability with 70.0% returns in Q1 2024. While Solana (SOL) garnered attention as a popular memecoin chain, the top-performing large L1 cryptocurrencies were Toncoin (TON) and Bitcoin Cash (BCH) with gains of 131.2% and 130.5%, respectively. 

Bitcoin (BTC) achieved a 65.1% gain, reaching new all-time highs, while Ethereum (ETH) posted a more modest 53.9% increase, despite the anticipation surrounding US spot Ethereum ETF applications.

Layer 2 (L2) emerged as the least profitable crypto narrative in Q1, with a relatively lower gain of 39.5%. Established Ethereum L2 solutions underperformed, with Arbitrum (ARB) returning 5.6%, Polygon (MATIC) seeing a 1.2% gain, and Optimism (OP) closing the quarter with a slight decline of 1.2%. However, Stacks (STX) and Mantle (MNT) recorded relatively strong returns of 142.5% and 95.8% QTD, respectively.

Memecoins

As of this writing, Dogecoin (DOGE), the largest memecoin by market capitalization, is trading at $0.1745. Over the past 24 hours, it has experienced a price correction of nearly 7%. In the last month, Dogecoin has shown limited bullish momentum, with a marginal gain of only 0.7% during this time period.

Dogecoin Hits Major Roadblock As Whales Go On Massive Selling Spree

The Dogecoin (DOGE) price looks at risk of further declines as on-chain data show that the meme coin’s largest holders are securing profits. This follows DOGE’s recent price surge, which saw the crypto token rise to a new three-year high of $0.22. 

Dogecoin Witnesses Wave Of Profit-Taking

Data from the market intelligence platform Santiment shows a drop in the number of Dogecoin holders holding between 10 million and 100 million DOGE tokens. This suggests that some holders have offloaded their tokens to secure profits from DOGE’s recent price gains. 

This wave of profit-taking looks to have become a pattern among DOGE holders, as further data from Santimemt showed that these whales also instantly booked their profits just after DOGE enjoyed an upward trend earlier in March. Bitcoinist even reported then of a Dogecoin whale that offloaded 86 million DOGE tokens on the market. 

Considering the magnitude of these whales’ holdings, their actions are bound to exert much selling pressure on the DOGE token. That explains why the meme coin has steadily declined since rising to as high as $0.22 last week. Interestingly, Santiment, in an X (formerly Twitter) post, had recently warned of an impending sell-off by these whales. 

The crypto analytics platform noted how major dormant whales were moving their Dogecoin holdings back into circulation, which usually suggests they are getting ready to sell. Meanwhile, members of the DOGE community seem unfazed by the recent price dip, with many of them seeing it as an opportunity to accumulate more of the meme coin.

The Whales Will Soon Return  

Dogecoin whales are expected to return and position themselves again once this wave of profit-taking by them is done. Besides taking profits, these whales also see this period as an opportunity to invest in DOGE at the market bottom and in anticipation of future price gains. 

Despite this recent correction, there looks to be a lot of bullish momentum on the largest meme coin by market cap, especially with analysts predicting that it could rise to $1 in this market cycle. In the short term, Dogecoin is also expected to make another run soon, with significant events coming up for the meme coin this April.

The foremost US exchange, Coinbase, is set to launch Dogecoin futures for its institutional clients on April 29. This move could cause new money to flow into the meme coin’s ecosystem and spark a price surge. DOGE Day is also happening on April 20, which will put the spotlight on the crypto token and possibly impact its price positively. 

At the time of writing, DOGE is trading at around $0.18, down over 6% in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap.

DOGE Price Prediction – Dogecoin Could Restart Rally If It Holds This Support

Dogecoin is correcting gains from the $0.230 zone against the US Dollar. DOGE must stay above the $0.1750 support zone to start a fresh increase.

  • DOGE struggled to stay above $0.225 and corrected gains against the US dollar.
  • The price is trading above the $0.1750 level and the 100 simple moving average (4 hours).
  • There was a break below a key bullish trend line with support at $0.2040 on the 4-hour chart of the DOGE/USD pair (data source from Kraken).
  • The price could restart its increase unless there is a close below the $0.1750 support.

Dogecoin Price Approaches Key Support

After a steady increase, Dogecoin price attempted more gains above the $0.230 zone. However, DOGE struggled above $0.2250. A high was formed at $0.2294 and the price started a downside correction, like Bitcoin and Ethereum.

There was a drop below the $0.2050 and $0.200 support levels. The price dipped below the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the $0.1228 swing low to the $0.2294 high.

Besides, there was a break below a key bullish trend line with support at $0.2040 on the 4-hour chart of the DOGE/USD pair. However, Dogecoin is still above the $0.1750 level and the 100 simple moving average (4 hours).

DOGE Price Prediction

On the upside, the price is facing resistance near the $0.1950 level. The next major resistance is near the $0.200 level. A close above the $0.200 resistance might send the price toward the $0.2150 resistance. The next major resistance is near $0.2300. Any more gains might send the price toward the $0.2500 level.

More Downsides in DOGE?

If DOGE’s price fails to gain pace above the $0.200 level, it could continue to move down. Initial support on the downside is near the $0.1820 level.

The next major support is near the $0.1750 level or the 50% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the $0.1228 swing low to the $0.2294 high. If there is a downside break below the $0.1750 support, the price could decline further. In the stated case, the price might decline toward the $0.1480 level.

Dogecoin Open Interest Hits Record $2.2 Billion – What’s Next For DOGE Price?

The Dogecoin open interest has been on the rise over the past few weeks, breaking and setting new all-time highs twice this March. Unsurprisingly, the price of the meme coin has been reflecting the growth seen by its open interest.

This recent bullish momentum pushed the price of DOGE to break the $0.22 mark, its highest point in three years. However, the question is – how far can this rally go for the foremost meme token?

Dogecoin Open Interest Breaks Above $2 Billion

According to data from CoinGlass, the Dogecoin open interest broke through the $2 billion mark on Friday, March 29. Although DOGE’s open interest stands at around 1.96 billion at press time, it rose as high as $2.21 billion on Friday, a new record for the meme coin.

Open interest is a metric that measures the total number of futures or options contracts of a particular cryptocurrency (Dogecoin, in this case) in the market at a given time. It provides insight into the amount of money investors are pouring into DOGE derivatives at this time.

The meme token’s open interest has had quite a performance since the start of March. DOGE’s open interest rose to $1.6 billion (an all-time high at the time) earlier in the month before retracing to below $1 billion by March 20.

It is worth noting that there has been a high correlation between open interest and Dogecoin’s price, with both climbing at the same time and at almost the same pace. Typically, a rising open interest can suggest a continuation of the trend around the asset’s price at the moment.

Ultimately, the current high open interest for DOGE could mean a rapid price movement for the meme coin in the near future. However, it would be difficult to tell the direction in which this spurt of volatility would take the price of Dogecoin, especially as open interest is not the most optimal indicator of trends or price action.

DOGE Price Overview

As of this writing, the Dogecoin price stands at $0.204, reflecting a 4.6% decline in the last 24 hours. While the meme token’s price has somewhat struggled since hitting the three-year high, it has managed to retain most of its profit from the past week.

According to CoinGecko data, the Dogecoin price is up by a whopping 18% in the past seven days. This positive performance has strengthened DOGE’s position as the largest meme coin in the market, with a market capitalization of $29 billion.

Dogecoin Enters New Trend Set To Drive Price To $0.3: Analyst

Amid the recent momentum displayed by the meme-inspired cryptocurrency Dogecoin (DOGE), Rekt Capital, a crypto trader and analyst, has identified a new trend that could propel DOGE’s price to the $0.3 price mark in the short term.

Dogecoin (DOGE) Inititate New Macro Uptrend

Over the past few weeks, Dogecoin has been performing fairly well, triggering optimism and expectations for more price growth. Due to this, the top meme currency in the world in terms of overall market valuation has always generated discussion within the sector.

DOGE’s recent spike in price resulted in the conclusion of its Macro Downtrend, according to Rekt Capital. However, the breakout has triggered DOGE into a new Macro Uptrend on the upside.

Dogecoin

Additionally, DOGE Monthly would recapture historical support if it closed above the red $0.20 price level. As a result, it would provide more momentum for a move towards the $0.30 range and even further.

The post read:

Dogecoin has ended its Macro Downtrend and begun a new Macro Uptrend. And if DOGE Monthly Closes above the red ~$0.20 level, it would reclaim historical support that could offer further fuel for a move towards the $0.30+ area.

It is worth noting that it took Dogecoin less than two weeks to break out from the macro downtrend after entering the area. Rekt Capital pointed out that the crypto asset successfully retested its support after breaking its macro downtrend two weeks ago.

During this period, the analyst underscored DOGE was still in the retest phase because the coin was still declining. Furthermore, the meme coin was moving sideways within a new macro range he dubbed black-red, around $0.12 and $0.20.

Prior to the breakout, Rekt Capital stated that DOGE is taking all the appropriate steps to validate its new macro uptrend. Given that the token has broken through strong resistances, it could be headed for a new peak in this cycle.

Potential Catalyst For The DOGE’s Performance

Rekt Capital’s forecast came in light of DOGE witnessing a significant increase to $0.22, its highest level in the past 2 years. It is believed that the upswing was triggered by rumors that the asset could be incorporated into Elon Musk‘s X platform very soon.

Ever since the rumors developed, Dogecoin’s price has doubled in less than a month, suggesting interest growth from investors. Dogecoin is currently the eighth-largest crypto asset by market value, with a market cap of $31.087 billion, following its remarkable price explosion.

Presently, Dogecoin is trading at about $0.21, with a notable $5.157 billion trading volume in the past day. Despite the recent price development, DOGE is still more than 50% down from its all-time high of $0.74.

The resurgence of Dogecoin in the rapidly evolving cryptocurrency space is indicative of the dynamics of the market. This huge increase also reflects the general state of the market, showing investors’ ongoing interest in meme coins today.

Dogecoin Holder Base Reaches New Record Amid Surge In Interest

Dogecoin has soared toward a new record in one notable metric as interest in the meme coin continues to surge. This time around, the holder base of the cryptocurrency has reached a new all-time high, signaling rapid adoption among crypto investors.

Dogecoin Holders Cross 6.9 Million

The month of March has come with glad tidings for Dogecoin. Not only has the meme coin’s price risen tremendously this month, its holder base has also seen a lot of growth. This month, the total DOGE holder base crossed 6.9 million for the very first time, setting a new record. However, the meme coin is not anywhere near done as the number continues to rise.

According to data from the Coincarp website, the number of Dogecoin holders on the mainnet has reached 6,932,763 as of March 28. Given the growth rate of the number of holders over the last month, the number could cross 7 million before the month of March is over.

This new record is a testament to the adoption that DOGE has witnessed over the last few months. Despite competitors such as BONK, PEPE, and WIF springing out of the woodwork, as well as its fiercest rival, Shiba Inu, continuing to put up a fight, Dogecoin has dominated as the leading meme coin.

To put this growth in perspective, the DOGE holder base started out the year 2024 with around 6.06 million holders. Three months later, it is more than 6.9 million, meaning that the holder base grew more than 14% during this time.

DOGE Outlook Continues To Be Bullish

In addition to the rapid rise in Dogecoin holders, there has been a notable uptick in other metrics, such as daily transaction counts, whale transactions, and age consumed. These point to a rise in bullish sentiment among investors who expect the price to keep going up.

The age consumed is particularly important here since it shows that more investors are choosing to hold their DOGE tokens for the longer term. This has significantly reduced the selling pressure on the meme coin, allowing it to rally at a time when most of the crypto market remains suppressed.

Another metric that has shown a significant increase is the daily transaction volume which is up almost 50% in the last day. This uptick shows more interest in trading Dogecoin and with its price surging in the last day, it suggests that the majority of this volume is skewed toward buying rather than selling.

The DOGE price is currently reflecting this surge in interest as its price is up almost 10% in the last day. However, the bears continue to maintain resistance around $0.2, forcing the meme coin back downward.

Dogecoin Whales Go On Massive Buying Spree, Here’s How Much They’ve Bought

Dogecoin has seen a steady rise in activity in the past two days to reverse the period of stagnancy recorded earlier in the week. At the time of writing, DOGE is up by 7% in the past 24 hours, reversing some of the corrections it has experienced in the past week. Turns out some Dogecoin whales have been going on a massive buying spree, as indicated by on-chain data. 

Popular crypto analyst Ali Martinez highlighted this accumulation trend by tweeting that DOGE whales have bought over 25 million DOGE worth around $3.75 million in the past three days. 

Crypto Analyst Reveals Dogecoin Whale Accumulation

According to the Santiment chart shared by Ali Martinez on social media, wallets holding between 10 million to 100 million DOGE tokens have now pushed their total balance to 15.63 billion DOGE after adding 25 million DOGE in the past 24 hours. 

Interestingly, the chart dynamics indicate this is a major change in sentiment from this cohort of traders, as their collective balance has been in a freefall since March 14th.

Why Does This Matter?

Crypto whales typically move the market. Increased buying or selloff from a few large traders could change the sentiment of other investors, and they could further cascade a price surge or decline. Notably, the chart shared by Martinez shows that the total balance of DOGE’s whale addresses has largely corresponded with the price increase. 

For example, the drop on March 14 in the total whale balance corresponded with a 33% drop in DOGE’s price from $0.1878 on March 14 to March 20. However, DOGE is now showing signs of recovery and is currently trading at $0.1629.

While Dogecoin whales and FOMO buyers may temporarily push DOGE higher, its long term success really depends on whether it can transform from a memecoin into a widely used cryptocurrency. Dogecoin recently scored a point in its bid to achieve mainstream adoption. Coinbase, America’s biggest crypto exchange, revealed plans to introduce Dogecoin along with Litecoin and Bitcoin Cash to its regulated futures contract offerings.

According to an earlier prediction by Ali Martinez, DOGE could reach the $1 mark in April. His prediction was based off of the crypto’s performance after similar breakouts in 2017 and 2021. 

A large part of this prediction coming to manifestation is a bullish sentiment from whale addresses, especially if they continue on an accumulation pattern. A key price level to watch is $0.20. If DOGE breaks above this resistance level, it could continue surging higher on buying momentum. But if it fails to break $0.20 and starts dropping again, it may indicate the rally is running out of steam.

Dogecoin Price Holds Crucial Support But Can DOGE Clear This Hurdle?

Dogecoin is recovering higher from $0.1220 against the US Dollar. DOGE must clear the $0.1650 resistance to start another increase toward $0.200.

  • DOGE declined heavily and tested the $0.1220 support against the US dollar.
  • The price is trading below the $0.1650 level and the 100 simple moving average (4 hours).
  • There was a break above a key bearish trend line with resistance at $0.1310 on the 4-hour chart of the DOGE/USD pair (data source from Kraken).
  • The price could gain bullish momentum if it clears the $0.1600 and $0.1650 resistance levels.

Dogecoin Price Recovers Over 15%

After a strong decline, Dogecoin price found support near the $0.1220 zone. A low was formed at $0.1228 and DOGE recently started a decent recovery wave, like Bitcoin and Ethereum.

There was a steady increase above the $0.1320 and $0.1350 resistance levels. The price cleared the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the $0.1927 swing high to the $0.1228 low. There was also a break above a key bearish trend line with resistance at $0.1310 on the 4-hour chart of the DOGE/USD pair.

Dogecoin is still trading below the $0.160 level and the 100 simple moving average (4 hours). On the upside, the price is facing resistance near the $0.1580 level or the 50% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the $0.1927 swing high to the $0.1228 low.

The next major resistance is near the $0.1650 level. A close above the $0.1650 resistance might send the price toward the $0.1850 resistance. The next major resistance is near $0.200. Any more gains might send the price toward the $0.220 level.

Another Decline in DOGE?

If DOGE’s price fails to gain pace above the $0.160 level, it could start another decline. Initial support on the downside is near the $0.1450 level.

The next major support is near the $0.130 level. If there is a downside break below the $0.130 support, the price could decline further. In the stated case, the price might decline toward the $0.1150 level.

Dogecoin Growth Hits Roadblock As Holder Activity Enters Dreaded Period Of Stagnancy

The Dogecoin (DOGE) network has entered a period of stagnancy, as the number of addresses holding the meme coin has slowed. This is a stark contrast to February and January, when the network experienced a significant expansion

Dogecoin Has Added Only 60,000 New Addresses In March

Data from the market intelligence platform Santiment shows that the total number of DOGE holders has increased by only 60,000 since the beginning of this month. At the start of the month, 6.51 million users were holding the meme coin, with this figure only increasing to 6.57 million since then.

This is unlike February when the total number of DOGE holders rose from 5.92 million to 6.51 million. Specifically, around this same time last month, the network had already seen an increase of 450,000 in the total number of addresses holding DOGE. Meanwhile, NewsBTC reported that over 400,000 new addresses were added in two weeks between January and February. 

Dogecoin also set a new record in January alone when 247,240 new DOGE addresses were created on January 29. Crypto analyst Ali Martinez noted that a sustained uptrend in the network’s expansion “could soon reflect positively” on DOGE’s price. That underscores how significant the number of addresses holding the meme coin is. 

The stagnancy in Dogecoin’s holder activity might also come as a surprise to some in the crypto community, considering the meme coin frenzy that has taken the crypto space by storm. However, a plausible explanation is that meme coin traders aren’t necessarily invested in the prominent meme tokens but have their eyes on the undervalued gems. 

How Other Top Meme Coins Have Fared

Data from Santiment also shows that the other two meme coins, Shiba Inu (SHIB) and Pepe (PEPE), which make up the top three largest meme coins by market cap, haven’t fared better. Shiba Inu hasn’t seen its holder count increase since the beginning of the month, with the total number of users holding the meme coin still at 1.38 million. 

On the other hand, PEPE still has less than 200,000 holders despite boasting a year-to-date (YTD) gain of over 370%. These figures place DOGE firmly ahead of SHIB and PEPE in terms of the number of users they all have. Dogecoin is expected to see its user base pick up once again as soon as there is a renewed interest in network functionalities like the Doginals

At the time of writing, DOGE is trading at around $0.12, down almost 14% in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap.

Dogecoin Open Interest Maintains Record Highs, Is A Crash Coming?

The Dogecoin open interest rose to a new all-time high earlier in March, and while there has been a small retracement, the open interest has continued to maintain very high record levels since then. Given this continuous high level, it could point to where the price of the meme coin is headed next using historical data.

Dogecoin Open Interest Maintains High Level

Open interest is a measure of the total number of futures or options contracts of a particular coin in the market at a give time. It can help to tell how much money is flowing into that particular asset, thereby revealing if there a high or love interest in the asset.

On Dogecoin’s part, its total open interest has been rising over the last few months, especially as the crypto market recovered, as shown by data from Coinglass. A natural consequence of this was that the price was also climbing at the same time as the open interest and thus, there is a high correlation between open interest and price.

The DOGE open interest hit a new all-time high of $1.47 billion on March 5, and the meme coin has not looked back since. Despite a small decline in the following days, the open interest is rising once again, reaching $.144 billion on March 14 and taking the price with it.

While the rise in open interest does point to a lot of bullishness in the market, historical performance during times like these also calls for caution. Taking a look at what happened the previous times that the Dogecoin open interest hit new all-time highs could give an idea of where the price is headed next.

Where Can DOGE Go From Here?

Over the years, there have been various points at which the Dogecoin open interest has reached new all-time highs and a trend has emerged, in a manner of speaking. Looking as far back as 2021 when the open interest hit ATHs multiple time, this trend plays out similarly.

A sustained rise until a new all-time high is reached, with the price rising along, and then followed by a crash in open interest, as well as price. This was the case in September 2021 when the open interest reached a new all-time high and then again in November 2021 when it clocked another ATH.

Moving forward, the same trend is seen in October 2021 when the DOGE open rose close to its previous all-time high, but ended the same way as the previous ones – with a crash. These crashes almost always affect the DOGE price as well, causing it to drop to the levels before the surge in open interest.

If this pattern holds this time around, then a crash might be ahead for the Dogecoin open interest and the DOGE price by extension. A likely scenario is a 20% drop that could send the DOGE price back toward $0.15 before the crypto market picks up steam once again.

Dogecoin Influencer Sounds Critical Warning Alarm For Scams Targeting The Community

Dogecoin influencer Mishaboar has issued a vital warning to members of the Dogecoin (DOGE) community. This warning could prove timely as meme coin-related scams look to be on the rise in the crypto community. 

Beware Of Fake Dogecoin Airdrops  

Mishaboar warned community members in an X (formerly Twitter) post to be “extremely careful,” stating that there are several fake airdrops targeting the Dogecoin tag and other popular meme coins. The influencer also added that some of these scams are also deployed using the tags of popular AI tokens.

These scammers are said to promise airdrops to community members with the aim of solely stealing the tokens of unsuspecting users in the process. It is not surprising that these schemes are perpetuated using the tags of popular meme and AI tokens, as these categories of crypto tokens are two of the leading narratives for this bull cycle

Therefore, using these token tags is likely to help these scammers gain more reach and attract more users. Mishaboar’s warning is no doubt crucial, especially for newbies in the crypto space who could easily fall prey to these scams in the bid to earn ‘airdrops’ that could give them more leverage entering into the bull run. 

As part of his warning, the influencer advised his followers to report any account they suspected to be a scam. Mishaboar also noted that some of these accounts have a huge following and might seem legitimate, but users shouldn’t be deceived. Accounts with a significant following always tend to look more legit. That’s why these crypto users have to be extra vigilant. 

Mishaboar is known to be very particular about the safety of crypto users. When the ‘MyDogeWallet’ Hack occurred, he advised members of the crypto community to enable two-factor authentication (2FA) on their X accounts using an authenticator application or a physical security key. 

Shiba Inu Community Also Faced Similar Scams

At the beginning of the year, Shiba Inu scam detector platform Susbarium drew the SHIB community’s attention to scams that were targeted at obtaining people’s identities and stealing their crypto holdings. Back then, Susbarium warned that one of the scams involved fake accounts promoting fake TREAT tokens to unsuspecting investors. 

Like Mishaboar, Susbarium urged users to enable 2FA on all their crypto accounts. They also proposed using hardware wallets to help community members securely store their crypto tokens. Some scam accounts clone or impersonate official accounts, so the scam detector advised to be wary of unsolicited messages they might receive from these impersonators.

Dogecoin To $100? Crypto Analyst Reveals The Key

Dogecoin has seen a number of bullish predictions over the last month, especially with the recovery of the crypto market. The latest in this long line of bullish predictions is that of one crypto analyst who goes by southofearth on TradingView. According to the analyst, the DOGE price will rally higher than expectations.

Dogecoin Price Maintains Previous Patterns

The analysis which was posted on the TradingView website shows the trajectory of the Dogecoin price since it was launched back in 2013. The chart highlights the performance of DOGE in the years leading up to each Bitcoin halving and how this can pinpoint its rally point.

Both times have seen the Dogecoin price put on a massive rally after each halving, suggesting that it is a bullish trigger for the meme coin. With the next Bitcoin halving expected to take place sometime in April, the DOGE price looks to be gearing up for another breakout.

The crypto analyst points out that DOGE is currently showing a similar pattern as it had in the previous years, although with a bit more volatility. But because it is mostly maintaining this pattern, the chances of it following the same patter of rallying are high.

They also explain that the markets are moving faster, and the 4-year cycle that investors are used to might be getting shorter. Given this, the bull market begins faster, although with longer bear markets. In this case, the analyst believes that the DOGE price could top out in October of 2024 instead of in 2025 as expected.

DOGE Price Targets For Bull Market

Southofearth also shared their price targets for Dogecoin going forward, with four targets in total. The first puts the price at $1, which looks to be the start of the breakout. From there, the next target is placed at 1005 from the first target at $2.

Then another jump to $14 is expected before running all the way to $27. According to the crypto analyst, $27 is the next all-time high price for DOGE going by what has happened to the coin in previous years.

However, it doesn’t end there, as the analyst predicted that the DOGE price could possibly rise to $100 and above. But for this to happen, there has to be “hyperbitcoinization happens due to dollar index breaking down,” the analyst explains.

If the crypto analyst is correct, then the DOGE price could see a 16,000% move from here. However, the possibility of this happening is very slim given that DOGE’s market cap is already at $20 billion, and such a move would make it larger than Ethereum.

Analyst Predicts Massive Rally For Dogecoin Price With A $1 Target, Here’s How

Dogecoin recently jumped to the $0.2 level for the first time since November 2021 amidst a month of exceptional bullish price action. Notably, DOGE is currently up by 128% this month and 97% in the past seven days, giving DOGE holders something to be happy about. According to a crypto analyst, this price surge is expected to continue and go parabolic to the $1 mark in this market cycle. 

Dogecoin Set To Perform Exceptionally Well

Current market dynamics and bullish sentiment have seen DOGE shooting up in market capitalization after an extended consolidation period. A recent surge past the $0.20 price level saw DOGE briefly overtaking Cardano and jumping up to the eighth position in market cap rankings. 

In a post shared on social media platform X, a crypto analyst known as Altcoin Sherpa, noted this recent surge as a sign of better things to come in this cycle. While the analyst didn’t give a particular price point, he noted that a $1 price per Dogecoin wouldn’t be too surprising.

Interestingly, the $1 level would mean a ride to uncharted territory for DOGE, as the crypto is yet to cross above $0.8. A surge to $1 would mean a 465% surge from the current price level and past its current all-time high of $0.74.

The analyst noted that he doesn’t expect DOGE to perform as well as other meme-inspired cryptocurrencies with lower market caps like WIF, PEPE, and BONK, but its deep liquidity provides more of a stable investment. He also noted that DOGE and SHIB will probably take turns leading gains among meme coins.

Meme Coins Continue To Shine

The meme coin market has grown significantly since the early days of DOGE’s creation, which started out as a joke. Since then, tons of meme coins have been created, but Dogecoin continues to solidify its position as the largest meme coin in terms of market cap, demonstrating signs of renewed enthusiasm every so often.

At the time of writing, DOGE is trading at $0.18. Data from Coinglass shows that the open interest on DOGE futures contracts is now at $1.62 billion, a 10% increase in the past 24 hours. 

Other meme coins are also witnessing strong interest. According to Santiment, SHIB, PEPE, FLOKI, and BONK have seen an increase of over 3,000% in trading volume in the past week. The on-chain analytics platform credits the increase in trading volume to surging prices and increased crowd interest.

SHIB, PEPE, FLOKI, and BONK are up by 277%, 256%, 204%, and 145% respectively in the past seven days, outperforming DOGE during the time frame.

Dogecoin Open Interest Surges To Record $1.49 Billion

The Dogecoin open interest (OI) is surging after a week of remarkable price action. The meme coin which rose over 100% has continued to enjoy the attention of investors and traders alike, leading its open interest to reach a new all-time high.

Dogecoin Open Interest Taps Record $1.49 Billion

Data from Coinglass shows that there was an exponential growth in the Dogecoin open interest in the first five days of March. The open interest had closed out the month of February $870.22 million. However, only five days later, Dogecoin’s OI has risen to $1.49 billion. This rapid increase in less than one week translates to an over 70% increase in the open interest, reaching a brand new all-time high.

The increase did not come out of nowhere, as the DOGE price had begun to recover during this time. It closed out February at a price of $0.09, but by March 5, the price has already seen an 100% increase, briefly hitting $0.2 before correcting back downward to its current price of $0.18.

The open interest represents the interest in the meme coin as it is a total of all of the open derivatives positions in DOGE at any given time. This means that crypto traders are betting more on the price of Dogecoin and taking short and long positions in DOGE at an unprecedented rate.

Three exchanges currently control the vast majority of the DOGE OI, namely ByBit, Binance, and OKX. ByBit takes the lead, commanding $584.13 million of 3.25 billion DOGE OI. Binance takes the second position with $511.22 million or 2.85 billion DOGE, and OKX comes in third with $194.17 million or 1.08 billion DOGE.

DOGE Traders Caught In Tug-Of-War

Presently, the Dogecoin price seems undecided on where it is headed next, which has led to almost equal liquidations across the camps of bulls and bears. As mentioned above, the DOGE price had briefly touched $0.2, leading to liquidations across shorter. However, its downward correction has been just as detrimental to long traders.

Coinglass data shows that in the last 24 hours, DOGE traders have lost $33.92 million. Interestingly, long traders have actually lost more during this time as they account for $17.44 million in liquidations. While short traders have lost $16.32 million during the same time period.

On the shorter time frame, long traders are still suffering more losses with $2.26 million lost in the last four hours compared to $453,280 in short positions. However, while this shows bulls are taking a beating, it is also proof that bullish sentiment among traders when it comes to the DOGE price remains strong.

At the time of writing, DOGE’s price is siting $0.18 with a 7.49% increase in the last 24 hours, and an 85.98% increase in the last week.

Dogecoin Rallies 50% To Beat Out Avalanche, BONK Overtakes PEPE

With altcoins finally catching up to Bitcoin, meme coins such as Dogecoin, BONK, and PEPE have been in the spotlight. This outperformance from these meme coins has pushed their standing in the crypto market further, putting them ahead of large competitors.

Dogecoin Rallies 50% To Reclaim 9th Spot From Avalanche

While Dogecoin did start out the week on a slow note, it picked up the pace on Wednesday after Bitcoin’s price rose to $64,000. This rally saw the DOGE price go from $0.09 to over $0.1 in a matter of hours, before the wipeout that sent Bitcoin below $60,000.

Once the market recovered, Dogecoin began to move up once again, and by Thursday, its price touched above $0.13. This is the highest that the price has been since 2022 and it gave its market cap enough boost to not only re-enter the top 10 cryptocurrencies by market cap. But also to reclaim the 9th spot from Avalanche.

Dogecoin’s price has risen 50% in the last week and pushed its market cap above $18.1 billion. Avalanche had been occupying the 9th spot on this list after rising from $10 to $40 in the last few months. However, its market cap of $16.64 billion falls behind DOGE, putting it in 10th place on the list.

It is interesting to note that a week ago, Dogecoin had completely fallen out of the top 10 cryptocurrencies after Tron’s TRX saw its market cap rise. This will end up being short-lived as TRX has fallen out of the top 10 and now sits at 11th position with a market cap of $12.6 billion.

BONK Beats Out PEPE

In addition to Dogecoin, BONK, another meme coin, has also seen impressive growth during the time. According to data from Coinmarketcap, the BONK price has risen 30% in the last day to cross the $0.00002 threshold.

This outperformance comes in light of a notable surge in the daily trading volume of the meme coin. Its volume saw a 135% increase in the last day to reach $955 million. This rapid rise in volume suggests a rapid increase in investor interest in the coin, leading to its gains.

BONK’s market rose to $1.81 billion as a result of this, which put it ahead of PEPE with a $1.22 billion market cap. BONK now holds the spot for the third-largest meme coin in the space behind Dogecoin and Shiba Inu.

However, on the weekly chart, PEPE is outperforming BONK with 148% gains compared to BONK’s 74% gains. Following behind PEPE is dogwifhat (WIF) which rose 142.6% in the last week to reach an $820 million market cap.

Dogecoin Price Echoes Past Bull Run: Will It Rise Above $1 Soon?

The Dogecoin price has been trending sideways on low timeframes, but the cryptocurrency might be gearing up for a massive rally. The bull run across the nascent sector has been unkind to the king of the memecoins, but an analyst pointed at a potential change in direction towards a fresh all-time high.

As of this writing, DOGE has stalled at its current levels with a 2% loss over the past 24 hours. Over the previous seven days, the token has recorded similar performance, but it remains green on the 2-week and 30-day horizon.

Dogecoin Price Aims For The Moon? 23,000% Rally Possible

According to analyst Ali Martinez, the Dogecoin price is moving with previous bullish trends. Despite the low timeframe bearish momentum, the king of the memecoins could record a new massive rally above its current all-time high near the $0.80 level.

As seen in the chart below, the Dogecoin price experiences a sideways trend, which can extend to 679 days before exploding into a new all-time high. On DOGE’s weekly chart, the token records profits of 8,000% and 23,000% each time this happens.

In late 2017, when the price of Bitcoin rose to $20,000, the Dogecoin price followed and broke the 679-day sideways trend with an 8,700% rally. In 2021, the memecoin experienced a similar breakout but with an even bigger rally.

dogecoin doge dogeusdt chart 1

As the chart shows, Dogecoin might see an even bigger rally above $1 and $3 if this potential rally materializes. This price action is supported by DOGE’s capacity to move more aggressively to the upside every time it breaks the long sideways trend.

The analyst stated:

The price action of #Dogecoin appears to mirror patterns observed in its past bull markets. If history repeats itself, we could see $DOGE enter a parabolic breakout around April!

DOGE Price On The Short-Term

On low timeframes, the $0.10 level is critical resistance for the token to fulfill its bullish potential. NewsBTC reported that the cryptocurrency hints at a potential breakout, but DOGE must recover the $0.0914 area before scoring further gains.

This week, the crypto market might see opposition from macroeconomic developments, which could spark volatility. If the Dogecoin price can hold its ground, the possibility of a bull run will gain further momentum.
