Dogecoin, the original memecoin of the crypto industry, has not seen a monumental rise in price unlike other altcoins of late. According to <\/span>CoinMarketCap<\/span>, DOGE<\/a> has only risen 5.56% in the past week with its biggest gains seen in the monthly time frame.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n At its current market cap of $11.3 billion, the token is surpassed by other altcoins in terms of growth. However, DOGE still remains a <\/span>dominant force<\/span><\/a> in the world of memecoins as it has been for a long time.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Compared to its peers, Dogecoin is still a popular choice for investors in the crypto industry. In terms of <\/span>market cap<\/span><\/a>, the token dominates SHIB by a wider margin. Even with Shiba Inu disrupting DOGE\u2019s dominance, it still has a long way to go for SHIB to be level with DOGE.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n However, Shiba Inu has been distancing itself from its memecoin past. With <\/span>Shibarium<\/span><\/a> around the corner, we might see SHIB gain more dominance in space. Since last year, Dogecoin has been silent in the development space with the only <\/span>spike<\/span><\/a> in activity being the <\/span>October 2022 upgrade<\/span><\/a> of the token\u2019s wallet.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n But external developments still favor DOGE. According to recent news about Tesla\u2019s <\/span>financials<\/span><\/a>, the company has not bought or sold Bitcoin for two consecutive quarters. Despite this, the company still only accepts DOGE for crypto payments. This gives DOGE some real life utility as a form of payment.<\/span><\/p>\n However, with the electric vehicle industry facing a tougher time right now, we might see DOGE perform poorly compared to other memecoins, or altcoins in that matter, in the foreseeable future.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n As the time of writing, the price movement of DOGE has stagnated and started to oscillate above and below $0.08. <\/span>Analysts<\/span><\/a> are bullish about the coin\u2019s short to medium term growth with the target set at $0.118.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n $DOGE<\/a> in case we get a breakout of the current handle, this Cup & Handle pattern is what I look for.<\/p>\n Target would be around $ 0.118 – 0.115<\/p>\n That would be a 30% move after breakout for #doge<\/a><\/p>\n Many alts have similar c&h structures given#Dogecoin<\/a> #dogeusd<\/a> #dogeusdt<\/a> #altcoin<\/a> pic.twitter.com\/cbC60o8D3A<\/a><\/p>\n \u2014 Trading Joker (@TradingJoker) January 20, 2023<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n However, Dogecoin bulls should lower their expectations as the previous few weeks shows. DOGE, even with strong correlation with Bitcoin and Ethereum, only grew by 11% which is <\/span>comparably lower<\/span><\/a> than other altcoins who are in the top 100 list.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\nDOGE Compared To Other Memecoins<\/strong><\/h2>\n
