The Dogecoin price has not quite been able to replicate its late-2024 form so far in 2025, trading below the $0.2 level for most parts of the year. After a somewhat rough start to the month of June, the meme coin appears to be recovering nicely, jumping above $0.18 on Friday, June 6.
Firstly, the 500-day Aggregated Liquidation Level reveals that a large amount of liquidity ($350 million) was trapped around the $0.5 level the last time the DOGE price experienced a major correction. According to Wedson, the Dogecoin price tends to surge months after shorts pile up.
Furthermore, Wedson alluded to a broader catalyst for a potential performance of the Dogecoin price over the next few months. The crypto CEO mentioned that the Meme Index, containing 16 of the largest meme coins, is showing early recovery signs after a severe correction.
Finally, Wedson mentioned that the total meme coin market capitalization is far larger than in 2021, while the open interest is still at extremely low levels ($3.2 billion), and the daily volume is just around $12 billion. The low open interest suggests that the meme coin market condition is not overheated yet, with room for further upside growth.
