As a seasoned crypto investor with over a decade of experience navigating bull and bear markets alike, I find myself both cautiously optimistic and intrigued by Dogecoin’s current situation. The meme coin industry has indeed undergone significant shifts, but I’ve learned that the tide can turn swiftly in this ever-evolving market.
The price of Dogecoin continued to trend downwards, or “bearish,” dropping more than 55% from its peak value this year.
As a crypto analyst, I observed that on August 20th, Dogecoin (DOGE) – the leading meme coin within the cryptocurrency market – was holding steady at a significant support level of $0.10. This price point is slightly above its lowest point for the month, providing some reassurance amidst current market fluctuations.
The show takes place during a time of major transformations in the meme coin sector. Instead, investors are now gravitating towards emerging and trendy coins such as Dogwifhat (WIF) and Pepe (PEPE), causing a decrease in interest for established coins like DOGE and Shiba Inu (SHIB).
According to recent data, the cryptocurrency Dogecoin boasts a market capitalization exceeding $14.7 billion and recorded a 24-hour trading volume of approximately $741 million. In comparison, Pepe, with an estimated value of around $3.2 billion, saw over $1 billion in trades during the same period.
The interest in Dogecoin’s future contracts on trading platforms has decreased significantly, with the current open interest standing at around $500 million compared to a peak of approximately $2.2 billion this year.
Still, on the positive side, DOGE’s hash rate has continued rising and was at a record high of 1.2580 PH/s, up from January’s 818 TH/s. The mining difficulty has also jumped to an all-time high of 23.12 million.
DOGE price has formed a falling wedge
Over the past 13 months, I’ve observed that the weekly chart of Dogecoin has entered a period of consolidation. However, a significant bullish breakout occurred recently, which reached an impressive peak of $0.2274 in March. This breakout coincided with a surge in Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies.
On the upside, the distribution/accumulation index has climbed to its peak since April 2022, despite the fact that the coin dropped more than 50% from its highest point this year.
Furthermore, Dogecoin (DOGE) has developed an uncommon falling wedge formation. This happens when two downward sloping trendlines converge. Usually, such a pattern suggests a strong upward move or “bullish breakout” occurs once the lines meet, and this is imminent.
Based on the observed pattern, it appears that the coin might be preparing for a bullish surge soon. If this forecast holds true, Dogecoin (DOGE) could potentially reach its October 2022 peak resistance at $0.1587 – representing an approximately 56% increase from the current August 20 level.
