A renowned cryptocurrency analyst is predicting a significant surge in the price of Dogecoin (DOGE), suggesting the meme-based digital asset could see a nearly 500% increase in value in the upcoming weeks.
Ali Martinez, who boasts 50,700 followers on a social media platform, bases his prediction on historical trends, indicating DOGE could reach $1 by mid-April.
At the time of his analysis, DOGE was valued at $0.167.
Martinez’s forecast hinges on DOGE’s potential to break above its range resistance, mirroring its performances in 2017 and 2021, which could catalyze a meteoric rise in its value.
This perspective is not unique to Martinez.
Altcoin Sherpa, another crypto analyst with a considerable following of 209,800 on the same social media platform, echoed a similar sentiment earlier in the week.
Altcoin Sherpa highlighted the influence of Elon Musk, one of DOGE’s most prominent supporters, as a crucial factor that could drive the coin to the $1 milestone.
However, he expressed uncertainty regarding the timing of this surge.

Altcoin Sherpa shared his thoughts, emphasizing DOGE’s potential for significant gains due to Musk’s backing and its status as the leading meme coin.
Despite this optimism, he noted that the returns might not replicate those seen in 2021 due to the current market cap.
Moreover, he considered investing in DOGE as a relatively safe bet with high potential for returns, albeit with uncertain comparative risk-reward ratios against other investments.
In addition to his DOGE analysis, Martinez also commented on the market sentiment surrounding Ethereum challenger Fantom (FTM), pointing out an uptick in whale transactions, increased whale holdings, and decreased FTM balances on exchanges, signaling positive market activity.
FTM’s price was noted at $0.828 at the time of his remarks.
Aside from DOGE, SHIB is another popular dog-themed crypto – and there have been dozens of bullish Shiba Inu price predictions issued in recent weeks.
