The altcoin market has been one of the most-affected segments of the crypto industry by the uncertainty that has clouded the global financial markets in the past few months. For instance, Dogecoin — the largest meme coin by market capitalization — lost over 55% of its value in the first quarter of 2025.
However, things seem to be looking up for the DOGE token, as its price jumped by nearly 15% in the past week. According to the latest on-chain observation, this recent rally might just be the beginning of another leg up for the meme coin over the coming weeks.
Is A Sustained Bull Run On The Cards For DOGE?
In an April 26 post on the X platform, pseudonymous crypto analyst Cryptollica posited that the price of Dogecoin could be gearing up for an extended bullish period over the next few weeks. This projection is based on the changes in the MVRV metric, which tracks the ratio of a coin’s market cap to its realized cap.
The MVRV ratio basically tells how much value the investors hold (the market cap) against the value they put in (the realized cap). Hence, when the value of this metric is greater than 1, it means that more investors are in profit at the moment. Meanwhile, a less-than-one value implies that most of the market is in the red.
As such, a high MVRV ratio is generally viewed as a price top signal because investors show more propensity to offload their assets when they are in profit. On the flip side, when the metric is below the “1” threshold, it suggests that the market might be bottoming out.
As observed in the chart above, the Dogecoin MVRV ratio seems to be thickening in and around the “1” threshold level. Besides its on-chain significance, this level has proven pivotal in certain trend reversals seen in the past, with the DOGE price bouncing back to a new local high each time the MVRV ratio persists around this mark.
The price of Dogecoin surged by 1,900% and 2,200% in August 2017 and August 2020, respectively, when the MVRV ratio was at its current level. The last time it was around this level in August 2024, the DOGE price rallied by more than 400% to surpass $0.5.
Going by the historical precedent, there is a likelihood that the DOGE price could be preparing for a significant upward movement. Considering the improving market climate, a sustained bullish run might not seem completely out of the question anymore at this point.
Dogecoin Price At A Glance
After briefly touching the $0.19 mark in the early hours of Saturday, April 19, the DOGE price appears to have cooled off. As of this writing, the price of DOGE is hovering around $0.18, reflecting a 0.3% decline in the past 24 hours.

Opeyemi is a proficient writer and enthusiast in the exciting and unique cryptocurrency realm. While the digital asset industry was not his first choice, he has remained absolutely drawn since making a foray into the space over two years. Now, Opeyemi takes pride in creating unique pieces unraveling the complexities of blockchain technology and sharing insights on the latest trends in the world of cryptocurrencies.
Opeyemi savors his attraction to the crypto market, which explains why he spends the better parts of his day looking through different price charts. “Looking” is a rather simple way to describe analyzing and interpreting various price patterns and chart formations. However, it appears that is not Opeyemi’s favorite part – in fact, far from it.
Being able to connect what happens on a price chart to on-chain movements and blockchain activities is what keeps Opeyemi ticking. “This emphasizes the intricacies of blockchain technology and the cryptocurrency market,” he would say. Most importantly, Opeyemi thinks of any market insights as the gospel, while recognizing that he is only a messenger.
When he is not clicking away at his keyboard, Opeyemi is most definitely listening to music, playing games, reading a book, or scrolling through X. He likes to think he is not loyal to a particular genre of music, which can be true on many days. However, the fast-rising Afrobeats genre is a staple in Opeyemi’s Spotify Daily Mix.
Meanwhile, Opeyemi is a voracious reader who enjoys a wide category of books – ranging from science fiction, fantasy, and historical, to even romance. He believes that authors like George R. R. Martin and J. K.
Rowling are the greatest of all time when it comes to putting pen to paper. Opeyemi believes his reading of the Harry Potter series twice is proof of that.
Indeed, Opeyemi enjoys spending most of his time within the four walls of his home. However, he also sometimes finds solace in the company of his friends at a bar, a restaurant, or even on a stroll. In essence, Opeyemi’s ambivert (haha! been searching for an opportunity to use the word to describe myself) nature makes him a social chameleon who is able to quickly adapt to different settings.
Opeyemi recognizes the need to constantly develop oneself in order to stay afloat in a competitive and ever-evolving market like crypto. For this reason, he is always in learning mode, ready to pick up the slightest lesson from every situation. Opeyemi is efficient and likes to deliver all that is required of him in time – he believes that “whatever is worth doing at all is worth doing well.” Hence, you will always find him striving to be better.
Ultimately, Opeyemi is a good writer and an even better person who is trying to shed light on an exciting world phenomenon – cryptocurrency. He goes to bed every day with a smile of satisfaction on his face, knowing that he has done his bit of the holy assignment – spreading the crypto gospel to the rest of the world.
