Dogecoin is showing early signs of recovery after a steep decline triggered by profit-taking among market participants.

The asset dropped nearly 6% over 24 hours but found significant buying interest at $0.158, establishing a short-term support zone as markets digested geopolitical headlines and economic uncertainty.

News Background

  • Global markets remain on edge as tensions between major economies and shifting monetary policy outlooks drive volatility. While ceasefire agreements in the Middle East have slightly eased investor anxiety, crypto assets — particularly memecoins — remain highly sensitive to sentiment swings.
  • DOGE’s sharp pullback follows a broader risk-off tone in digital assets, but late-session accumulation suggests some traders view the dip as a buying opportunity.
  • DOGE’s partial rebound coincides with renewed social buzz and short-term technical setups that have historically preceded price bounces.
  • Analysts remain divided on the strength of this recovery, but volume-backed support at $0.158 is now in focus heading into the next session.

What to know:

  • The Bank of Japan is expected to raise interest rates to 0.75% at its December meeting, the highest since 1995, affecting global markets including cryptocurrencies.
