Dogecoin (DOGE) is currently the second-best performing cryptocurrency among the top 100 projects by market cap, experiencing significant gains in recent weeks. The original meme coin has seen a 2.9% increase in the last 24 hours, a 32.6% rise in the weekly charts, and a 38.4% surge over the previous month, marking a nearly 144% increase since October 2023.
The cryptocurrency market is rebounding from an earlier dip, with Bitcoin (BTC) nearing the $70,000 mark and other assets also showing positive trends. This aligns with the historical pattern of a bullish October.
Dogecoin's recent rally may be attributed to Elon Musk's town hall appearance on October 17, where he expressed support for Donald Trump in the upcoming Presidential race. Musk's desire to establish a Department of Governmental Efficiency, humorously abbreviated as DOGE, has further fueled investor interest.
Market analysts speculate a potential market-wide rally if Trump wins the 2024 elections, with Musk being a significant supporter. This speculation could drive further interest in Dogecoin.
Despite the rally, CoinCodex analysts predict a potential correction for DOGE, forecasting a dip to $0.123 by October 31, 2024, translating to a 16.89% decrease from current levels. Changelly analysts present an even more bearish outlook, predicting DOGE will trade at $0.104, a 29.7% drop.
As the US presidential elections approach, Dogecoin may continue its upward trend if investors anticipate a Trump victory, potentially maintaining its growth momentum.
