The memecoin landscape has seen dramatic fluctuations throughout the year, with Dogecoin (DOGE) securing its position as the leader in terms of market capitalization. However, DOGE’s recent performance has prompted a wave of investor discontent, leading many to seek alternative options for quicker gains. Frustration Grows Among Dogecoin Investors According to data from blockchain analytics firm Santiment, the number of Dogecoin holders has significantly decreased, with a net drop of 106,600 non-empty wallets since October 8. The firm believes that this decline reflects growing frustration among traders regarding DOGE’s lackluster price performance, which has led them to explore other memecoins that might offer more immediate returns.

Data from CoinGecko indicates that while Dogecoin struggles, many other tokens in this space are also seeing losses, with the notable exception of TURBO token, which has shown impressive gains. Despite recent challenges, Dogecoin still boasts a 9% increase over the past week, leading the top ten memecoins in this metric. However, TURBO outperformed all competitors in the sector with a significant 76% surge during the same period, establishing itself as the top performer in the crypto market. In addition, the recent bullish performance of Bitcoin (BTC), the largest cryptocurrency by market cap, may have contributed to shifts in Dogecoin sentiment. Analysts predict that Bitcoin could reach between $80,000 and $120,000 by the end of the year, further fueling investor optimism. 84,200% Growth Ahead For DOGE? In a recent social media post on X (formerly Twitter), crypto analyst Ali Martinez has noted a fresh buy signal on Dogecoin’s four-hour chart, suggesting that the token may see additional price gains in the coming days. In his analysis, Martinez also pointed out an uptrend pattern on DOGE’s weekly chart, indicating potential for further growth in the months ahead. He has even speculated that Dogecoin’s price could reach an astonishing $10, representing a staggering 84,200% increase from current price levels. This projection is particularly ambitious given that Dogecoin’s all-time high of $0.7316 was reached in May 2021, leaving the token down over 83% from those peak levels.
