Dogecoin Price Analysis: Momentum Favors Further Gains

• Technical analysis shows that the Dogecoin price is poised to gain 33% to 23 cents in the coming days.

• The Dogecoin rally is heavily backed by institutional investors amid anticipated altseason 2025.

Dogecoin (DOGE) price gained 2 percent in the past 24 hours to trade around $0.1814 on Thursday, during the mid-North American trading session. The large-cap memecoin, with a fully diluted valuation of about $26.9 billion and a 24-hour average trading volume of around $1.5 billion, was among the best gainers in the top ten crypto assets.

Top Reasons Why Dogecoin is on the Rise

The Dogecoin’s price rally has heavily been driven by the rising Futures Open Interest (OI). In the past two weeks, Dogecoin’s OI surged from around $1.3 billion to about $2 billion at the time of this writing. Additionally, the Dogecoin network has recorded a significant increase in whale activity, led by fund managers, such as 21Shares, seeking to offer spot DOGE ETF.

The Dogecoin ecosystem has grown into a robust online community, mostly brought together by tech billionaire Elon Musk. Meanwhile, the Dogecoin core developers have been working on a major network upgrade to enable DeFi development to compete with other layer one (L1) chains such as Ethereum, and Solana.

DOGE Price Analysis

As Bitcoin price signals further bullish momentum in the near future, the overall demand for memecoins has remained high. The gradual resurgence of FOMO crypto trading has helped the DOGE price breakout from a multi-week falling trend.

In the daily timeframe, the Dogecoin price has formed a reversal pattern, characterized by inverse head and shoulders formation coupled with a bullish divergence of the Relative Strength Index (RSI). Additionally, Dogecoin’s daily MACD line is about to cross the signal line as the buyers gain control.

As a result, the DOGE price is well positioned to rally towards 23 cents in the coming days, with the 48 cents target likely to happen in the near future.
