Dogecoin Set for Potential Rebound as AI Tokens Lead Market Surge
Dogecoin (DOGE) has emerged as a focal point for risk-on traders amid the recent pullback in bitcoin (BTC), as social sentiment and whale activity suggest the memecoin could see a price increase. Meanwhile, AI-driven tokens have continued to show strong growth, adding to the market’s positive momentum.
“After a brief rally at the start of the year, Dogecoin has been relatively quiet, with its market cap dropping 28% over the last month,” blockchain analytics firm Santiment noted in its latest report. “However, sentiment is now at its lowest point in a year, which historically points to a buying opportunity, particularly for those taking a contrarian approach.”
Currently, crowd sentiment for Dogecoin is at 1 out of 5, which Santiment suggests indicates potential for growth if broader market conditions improve. Data from CoinDesk confirms that large transactions, or “whales,” have begun to take notice, with activity above $100,000 increasing as a sign of growing investor interest. The DOGE futures market also saw record open interest before tapering off in response to the broader market decline.
January has historically been a strong month for Dogecoin, averaging an 85% return. With the 50-day simple moving average (SMA pointing toward a potential bullish trend, analysts predict a short-term price target of $0.50, which would represent more than a 30% gain from current levels.
Broader market sentiment remains mixed. Bitcoin has remained range-bound, fluctuating between $90,000 and $95,000, while Ethereum (ETH) has shown bearish sentiment despite holding above $3,000. XRP has been on an upward trajectory with an 18% increase in the past week, while Solana (SOL) and Binance Coin (BNB) are seeing mixed sentiment, with buyers showing interest on dips.
Meanwhile, Cardano’s ADA led a broader recovery, climbing 5.5% in the past 24 hours, driving the CoinDesk 20 (CD20) index up 1.04%. Other major cryptocurrencies, including Solana, BNB, and Ethereum, all posted modest gains.
The AI token sector has also been one of the best-performing segments in the market, with Bixby, Cookie DAO’s COOKIE, and ChainGPT posting gains as high as 50% following their Binance spot listings. The AI Agents category led the charge, with the sector up an average of 8% overall, signaling continued investor enthusiasm for AI-driven projects.
