DOGE Rallies 6% Ahead of Anticipated ETF Launch

Dogecoin surged nearly 6% to $0.261 in the past 24 hours as traders positioned for the scheduled debut of the first U.S. Dogecoin ETF on September 12. Anticipation of the “DOJE” product, coupled with whale accumulation exceeding 280 million DOGE, fueled heavy late-session flows with volume topping 1.1 billion. Analysts now focus on whether the token can sustain closes above $0.26 and build toward the $0.29–$0.30 resistance zone.
