However, institutional interest could also play a role. This increase could push DOGE’s price toward $0.35–$0.50 in the near term if bullish sentiment holds, but it also risks heightened volatility or a reversal if over-leveraged positions unwind. The event leans more toward retail speculation than institutional accumulation, given Dogecoin’s meme coin nature and the suddenness implied, though broader crypto adoption trends in 2025 might suggest otherwise. Traders should monitor social media sentiment and liquidation data to assess whether this surge sustains or fizzles out.
