An analyst has pointed out two major Dogecoin resistance levels that could potentially pave the path to the next bull run for the memecoin’s price.
These Dogecoin Levels Stand Out In Terms Of On-Chain Resistance
In a new post on X, analyst Ali Martinez has discussed about the resistance walls present ahead for DOGE based on the UTXO Realized Price Distribution (URPD). The URPD is an on-chain metric created by the analytics firm Glassnode that tells us, in short, about the amount of supply that was bought at various levels that Dogecoin has visited in its history.
Coins are said to be ‘bought’ when they become involved in a transaction on the blockchain. As such, the URPD records the price at the time of any coin’s last transaction as its cost basis.
Now, here is the chart shared by the analyst that shows how the Dogecoin URPD is looking right now:
As is visible in the above graph, the largest supply wall that Dogecoin has is present around the $0.07 level, where over 20% of all coins in circulation were last transacted. Given that the DOGE price is currently trading far above this level, all of this supply would be sitting on a notable profit.
Generally, when the cryptocurrency’s price retests the cost basis of investors who were in profit just before, the holders may react by accumulating more if the mood in the market is bullish. This is because of the fact that they may be inclined to think the same level would end up being profitable again in the future, so the retest would look like a ‘dip‘ opportunity.
Similarly, when the retest occurs from the opposite direction, investors can react by selling instead, as they may fear that the asset would fall back again, so this could be their opportunity to at least exit with their entire investment back.
From the chart, it’s visible that in terms of the loss levels of Dogecoin, two currently stick out for their size: $0.18 and $0.21. The former hosts the acquisition level of around 8% of the supply, while the latter that of 7%.
Considering the significant amount of supply present at them, the levels could act as major resistance barriers due to the selling effect explained earlier. If DOGE can cross these levels, however, there are no other supply walls as large in sight. “Breaking through both could be the catalyst for the next major bull rally,” notes Martinez.
DOGE Price
Dogecoin made an attempt at recovery last week, but the memecoin’s price has since returned to its baseline as it’s now trading around $0.17.

Keshav is currently a senior writer at NewsBTC and has been attached to the website since June 14, 2021.
Keshav has been writing for many years, first as a hobbyist and later as a freelancer. He has experience working in a variety of niches, even fiction at one point, but the cryptocurrency industry has been the longest he has been attached to.
In terms of official educational qualifications, Keshav holds a bachelor’s degree in Physics from one of the premier institutes of India, the University of Delhi (DU). He started the degree with an aim of eventually making a career in Physics, but the onset of COVID led to a shift in plans. The virus meant that the college classes had to be delivered in the online-mode and with it came free time for him to explore other passions.
Initially only seeking to make some beer money, Keshav unexpectedly landed clients offering real projects, after which there was no looking back. Writing was something he had always enjoyed and to be able to do it for a living was like a dream come true.
Keshav completed his Physics degree in 2022 and has been focusing on his writing career since, but that doesn’t mean his passion for Physics has ended. He eventually plans to re-enter university to obtain a masters degree in the same field, but perhaps only to satiate his own interest rather than for using it as a means to find employment..
Keshav has found blockchain and its concepts fascinating ever since he started going down the rabbit-hole back in 2020. On-chain analysis in particular has been something he likes to research more about, which is why his NewsBTC pieces tend to involve it in some form.
Being of the science background, Keshav likes if concepts are clear and consistent, so he generally explains the indicators he talks about in a bit of detail so that the readers can perhaps come out having understood and learnt something new.
As for hobbies, Keshav is super into football, anime, and videogames. He enjoys football not only as a watcher, but also as a player. For games, Keshav generally tends towards enjoying singleplayer adventures, with EA FC (formerly FIFA) being the only online game he is active in. Though, perhaps due to being ultra-focused on the game, he is today a semi-pro on the EA FC scene, regularly participating in tournaments and sometimes even taking back prize money.
Because of his enthusiasm for anime and games, he also self-learned Japanese along the way to consume some of the untranslated gems out there. The skill didn’t merely remain as just a hobby, either, as he put it to productive use during his exploration for small-time gigs at the start of COVID, fulfilling a couple of Japanese-to-English translation jobs.
Keshav is also big into fitness, with agility and acceleration-related workouts making a big part of his program due to the relevance they have in football. On top of that, he also has a more traditional strength based program for the gym, which he does to maintain an overall fitness level of his body.
