  • On-chain trackers flagged 808.9M DOGE traded in the rebound, a ~14% jump compared with weekly averages of 378.5M, pointing to elevated institutional activity.
  • Broader meme-coin markets saw rotation as investors probed alternatives like XYZVerse and MAGACOIN FINANCE, highlighting diversification away from established tokens.

  • MACD: Histogram compression signals a potential crossover, with upside risk if volumes persist.
  • Patterns: Price action forming a short-term consolidation band; a cup-and-handle setup remains on watch with targets near $0.25–$0.30 if resistance clears.
  • Volume: 808.9M in recovery phase vs. 378.5M average underscores institutional flow behind the rebound.
  • Whether $0.21 support continues to hold under renewed sell pressure.
  • A decisive close above $0.225 as the trigger for a rally toward $0.25.
  • Futures open interest and whale exchange flows as leading indicators of sentiment shift.
