Dogecoin Plunges 8% Then Stages Spectacular V-Shaped Rebound – Bulls Back in Control
Dogecoin just gave crypto traders a masterclass in volatility—and why memecoins refuse to die quietly.
The Shiba Inu-themed asset nosedived 8% in a brutal morning selloff, only to rocket back with a textbook V-shaped recovery. No fundamental news, no major exchange listings—just pure, unfiltered crypto market psychology at work.
Technical traders are circling: That recovery pattern typically signals exhausted sellers and hungry dip-buyers. Meanwhile, 'Doge Army' loyalists are crowing about the coin's ninth-life survival instincts (while conveniently forgetting it's still down 60% from its last hype cycle peak).
One hedge fund analyst quipped: 'Nothing proves market irrationality like a dog meme coin outperforming your carefully researched altcoin portfolio.'
