News Background

DOGE’s selloff mirrors broader risk-off sentiment across crypto assets as central banks reassess rate cuts amid persistent inflation. At the same time, geopolitical tensions and trade-related uncertainty are dampening speculative appetite, especially among institutional traders.

The meme token reached a short-term high of $0.248 early in the session but met heavy resistance and saw a cascade of selling during U.S. trading hours. Despite a late-session bounce, DOGE failed to reclaim key resistance at $0.24.
