Weekly Analysis

This weekly analysis is majorly on the top two MEME coin

Dogecoin (DOGE) has experienced a significant price surge, climbing approximately 7% within the last 24 hours to reach $0.181 on March 25, marking its highest level in nearly two weeks.

The rally is being driven by multiple factors, including the launch of the Official Dogecoin Reserve, improving investor sentiment towards altcoins, and key technical indicators pointing to a potential breakout.

One of the most notable catalysts for DOGE’s recent rise is the Dogecoin Foundation’s initiative to create the Official Dogecoin Reserve. Announced on March 24, the foundation purchased 10 million DOGE, worth around $1.80 million, as part of its strategy to stabilize the asset and increase institutional confidence.

This move comes at a time when speculation surrounding the potential launch of a spot Dogecoin ETF in the U.S. is intensifying. Crypto betting platform Polymarket currently reflects a 72% probability of an ETF approval by the end of the year, up significantly from just 27% at the start of 2025.

DOGE’s momentum is also supported by a broader altcoin market rally. The total altcoin market capitalization (TOTAL2) has risen by 1.60% in the past 24 hours to reach $1.08 trillion.

In contrast, Bitcoin’s market cap has declined by 0.61% during the same period, suggesting a rotation of capital from Bitcoin into higher-risk assets like Dogecoin. The rally is partially attributed to easing trade war concerns, which have prompted investors to embrace riskier assets.

Historically, memecoins like DOGE have performed well during periods of increased retail speculation. This trend is evident in the futures market, where DOGE’s open interest (OI) has climbed to $1.80 billion, recovering from a four-month low of $1.33 billion on March 11.

Additionally, funding rates have turned positive, indicating growing demand for leveraged long positions and reinforcing a bullish sentiment.

Technical analysts Rekt Capital and Henry (@LordOfAlts) have highlighted crucial price levels that could determine DOGE’s next major move. According to Rekt Capital, the $0.22 level is a key resistance point, representing pre-halving highs.

A sustained weekly close above this level would signal strong buyer control, potentially opening the door for a rally toward $0.28 and $0.338.

Meanwhile, Henry has identified a multi-month falling wedge formation that resembles DOGE’s pattern from late 2024, which resulted in a significant breakout. With Dogecoin now breaking out of this pattern once again, Henry suggests that a surge toward $0.50 and beyond could be on the horizon, mirroring past cycles. He notes that the last time a similar breakout occurred, DOGE saw a 365% increase in value.

In conclusion
Dogecoin’s rally is driven by both fundamental and technical factors. The Dogecoin Foundation’s reserve initiative has boosted confidence, while broader market trends support further upside. A breakout above $0.22 could signal a push toward $0.50 or higher, but failure to clear key resistance may lead to consolidation or a pullback.

Shiba Inu Rides Memecoin Market Rebound
Shiba Inu (SHIB) has surged by over 10% in the past 24 hours, fueled by a broader memecoin market rebound. Open interest in SHIB increased by 30%, coinciding with an anonymous user burning 1 billion SHIB tokens, effectively reducing its circulating supply. This move has sparked optimism among investors, reinforcing the bullish sentiment.

The memecoin sector has seen a 20% gain in the past week, driven by improved market conditions following U.S. President Donald Trump’s softened stance on tariffs. Other memecoins, including SPX, FARTCOIN, and GIGA, have also recorded significant gains.

Investor enthusiasm is further fueled by discussions of a potential memecoin ETF. Asset managers like Canary Capital and Bitwise have submitted applications for Dogecoin, Pengu, and Bonk ETFs, prompting speculation about a future SHIB ETF. Lucie, a Shiba Inu core team member, hinted at this possibility, emphasizing SHIB’s widespread adoption across 110 exchanges and 212 trading pairs.

Shiba Inu recently broke through a crucial resistance level, forming an inverted head-and-shoulders pattern. Analysts suggest that if SHIB maintains support above $0.0000136, it could rally another 15% to reach $0.000017. At press time, SHIB was trading near $0.0000149, with trading volume surging 45%, signaling heightened investor interest.

Santiment data shows SHIB’s weighted sentiment has improved from -0.601 to 0.00061, indicating growing optimism. Coinglass data reveals traders are positioned heavily on the long side, with $1.63 million in long positions at $0.00001413 and $430K in short positions at $0.00001513.

Conclusion
With bullish technical patterns, rising sentiment, and speculation about a SHIB ETF, Shiba Inu remains a strong contender in the memecoin rally. If key support levels hold, further upside remains likely.

Financial News

PumpSwap Surpasses $1.5B in Volume Within a Week

PumpSwap, the new Solana-based DEX from Pump.fun, has processed $1.52 billion in trading volume and 14 million swaps in its first week. Despite high volume, most trades are small, with 65.22% under $10. The platform holds a 19% market share, trailing Raydium's 45%.

PumpSwap removed the 6 SOL migration fee and now lists various tokens beyond memecoins. It operates on an AMM model like Raydium and Uniswap. As competition grows, Raydium launched LaunchLab, a memecoin factory, but it has yet to gain traction. PumpSwap's fee structure will evolve with Creator Revenue Sharing.

AI Tokens Outpacing Memecoins?

AI tokens have gained 8% on average, with NEAR leading at an 18% weekly surge, while memecoins rose 7%, maintaining speculative dominance. NEAR’s controlled supply offers a more stable macro environment compared to DOGE’s inflationary risks. Bitcoin’s stability could drive capital rotation into AI-driven projects, signaling a shift toward utility over hype.

Despite DOGE’s social traction, AI tokens are gaining momentum, potentially redefining speculative trends. As risk appetite remains high, the market faces a key question: Will AI tokens sustain their breakout, or will memecoins absorb liquidity at cycle peaks?
