In recent days, DOGE price has experienced a slight surge, tracking alongside Bitcoin’s move towards the $43K mark. With an uptick in buying interest around current dip, the sentiment is set for a possible breakout for the meme coin. This momentum is supported by various on-chain indicators, particularly the notable increase in profitable Dogecoin addresses, which have reached their highest level in two years.
Return In Long-Term DOGE Holders’ Confidence
In the past month, Dogecoin has seen a notable increase of over 22% in its value, pushing the confidence of meme investors. As the price of Dogecoin increased, so too did the selling pressure from its holders.
The IntoTheBlock chart shows a significant change in Dogecoin miners’ reserves. On November 24, these reserves were at 4.67 billion Dogecoin. However, on December 15, it decreased to 4.39 billion Dogecoin.
This indicates that, in the span of three weeks, Dogecoin miners have plunged their reserves by approximately 280 million, equating to around $27 million. Miners seem to be capitalizing on the price increase to liquidate their holdings at peak values. Such a consistent sell-off trend by miners can typically put a negative influence on the price near resistance levels.
However, there has been a steady increase in the number of profitable DOGE wallets. According to data, around 3.6 million or 70% of total addresses are in profit, the highest number in around 2.4 years. This suggests a growing interest in Dogecoin. Analysis suggests that this surge might fuel further increases for Dogecoin in the coming weeks as an increasing ‘hodling’ sentiment will create buying demand.
However, if miners begin another selloff at around $0.1 peak, Dogecoin price might tumble and trigger a decline, delaying hopes of further increases.
What’s Next For DOGE Price?
Dogecoin recently rebounded from the low of $0.91 as buyers showed confidence near the dip. However, the buyers are struggling to push the price over the $0.10 mark. Currently, Dogecoin price is trading at $0.095, surging over 0.9% from yesterday’s rate.
As of now, sellers are attempting to drive the price below the 20-day EMA. Success in this could intensify selling pressure, potentially leading the DOGE price to drop towards the channel’s support line at $0.9. While this level might offer some support, a breach could see the price declining further to $0.07.
The current upward trend of both moving averages, coupled with the Relative Strength Index (RSI) being in a favorable zone, suggests that buyers have an upper hand. A breakout above the channel’s resistance will send the price toward $0.11. Additionally, a surge above $0.12-$0.14 might send the price to consolidate in a bullish region at $0.2.
