Dogecoin Defies Market Turmoil, Surges on Breakout Above Key Resistance
While most of the crypto market stumbled under the weight of geopolitical turmoil, Dogecoin (DOGE) managed to shine. Climbing 4.29% in 24 hours, DOGE broke above the $0.177 resistance and held firm despite a liquidation-driven market shakeout triggered by heightened tensions between Israel and Iran.
DOGE’s steady performance amid the chaos highlights its growing maturity as a crypto asset. Volume surged as the token briefly touched $0.180, supported by consistent network usage and renewed interest from both retail and institutional traders.
Key Drivers Behind the Move:
- Layer-2 Utility: DOGE wrapped for use on Coinbase’s Base network has expanded its use case, giving it fresh momentum.
- ETF Speculation: With a possible DOGE ETF in play (Polymarket odds at 51%), large players have been gradually building exposure.
- Resilient On-Chain Metrics: Daily active users and transaction volumes remain healthy, showing DOGE’s ecosystem is far from idle.
DOGE tested the $0.17–$0.18 zone multiple times before settling near session highs, forming a classic bullish trend with higher highs and higher lows.
Technical Highlights:
- Resistance: $0.179–$0.181 zone
- Support: $0.168 (break below could accelerate downside)
- Network turnover: $1.05 billion
- Pattern: V-shaped recovery with strong late-session volume
