Crypto trader Tardigrade expects DOGE to retrace to $0.30 before potentially spiking to $3, drawing comparisons to similar cycles from 2018-2021 and 2021-2025.

Crypto trader Master Kenobi sees a positive broader trend for DOGE but the timeline could shift, potentially influenced by changes in Bitcoin dominance.

He added that the current market behavior resembles early January 2021 and if history repeats, volatility may follow, according to the trader. In the previous cycle, DOGE dropped 55% over two weeks, although such a drop isn’t guaranteed.

He suggests a conservative target of $1 to $1.45 and noted that a green close this week would mark the second-longest streak of green weeks in DOGE's history (6 weeks, the record being 8 weeks in 2017-2018).

Statistics: IntoTheBlock data shows large transaction volume increasing by 41.1% and daily active addresses falling by 34.9%.

Community News: Dogecoin spiked to $0.40 over the weekend after an Elon Musk tweet sparked speculations about the forthcoming X Payments service, which could potentially support transactions with digital assets like DOGE.
