Dogecoin price stalls as DOGE ETF approval odds fall

Dogecoin price remained in a tight range this week as Polymarket odds for a potential DOGE ETF declined.

Dogecoin (DOGE), the largest meme coin, rose by about 6% on Dec. 2, bringing its seven-day gains to 7.5%. However, the momentum may reverse as a Polymarket poll shows that the odds of the Securities and Exchange Commission approving a spot DOGE ETF this year dropped to 26%, down from a high of 50% last week.ย 

In contrast, Polymarket users expect that the SEC will approve a Solana (SOL) ETF later this year, with odds being at 76%. The odds of a Ripple (XRP) ETF are at 70%.

The weaker odds for a DOGE ETF likely stem from the absence of an application by any financial services company. In contrast, WisdomTree, a $100 billion asset manager, has filed for a Ripple ETF. Additionally, the SEC has a Jan. 31 deadline to approve or reject Solana ETFs proposed by companies like Grayscale, 21Shares, and VanEck.

Still, there is a possibility that one or more companies will file for a Dogecoin ETF if the SEC, under Paul Atkins, shows flexibility on crypto funds. Such an ETF could see approval more easily, as Dogecoin is a proof-of-work cryptocurrency similar to Bitcoin.

DOGE also holds a significant position in the crypto industry, with a market cap of $50 billionโ€”approximately $16 billion lower than MicroStrategyโ€™s. MicroStrategy has multiple leveraged and covered call ETFs.

Crypto ETFs are doing well as they are helping institutional investors gain access to the industry. Bitcoin ETFs now hold over $105 billion in assets, while Ethereum funds have over $12 billion.ย

The daily chart shows that DOGE bottomed at $0.2635 in December and has since recovered to $0.3382. It has moved toward the 50-day moving average, while the Relative Strength Index is attempting to break above the descending trendline.ย 

The Percentage Price Oscillator has formed a bullish crossover. Additionally, the accumulation and distribution indicator remains elevated, suggesting that investors are gradually accumulating DOGE.

As a result, the coin is likely to rebound, with bulls targeting the resistance at $0.4836, the highest level reached in 2024. Conversely, a drop below the support level of $0.2650 would signal further downside potential.
