Galaxy Research Predicts Dogecoin to Hit $1 in 2023
Galaxy Research, a subsidiary of Galaxy Digital Holdings, has released an optimistic outlook for Dogecoin (DOGE) in its latest report. The prediction is part of a broader set of projections for the digital currency ecosystem by 2025, including Bitcoin, Ethereum, and other major players.
Dogecoin's Potential
The report highlights Dogecoin's potential to reach $1 next year, achieving its long-awaited target. Galaxy Research believes DOGE's market capitalization could surge to $100 billion in 2023.
This growth represents an over 100% increase from Dogecoin's current price of $0.3133 and market cap of $46.25 billion. While DOGE has seen sustained whale accumulation, it will require significant growth to meet this target.
Overall Crypto Market
Galaxy Research notes that Dogecoin will not be the only beneficiary of the expected market boom in 2025. The recent crossing of the $100 billion Asset Under Management (AUM) threshold in the spot Bitcoin ETF market is projected to reach $250 billion by 2025.
Ethereum also received a positive forecast, with the research firm predicting Ether to trade above $5,500 by 2025, driven by expected staking rates exceeding 50%.
Bitcoin and Other Cryptocurrencies
Galaxy Research anticipates that Bitcoin could rise to $150,000 in the first quarter of 2025 and reach $185,000 by the fourth quarter. These projections are more conservative than recent forecasts from "Rich Dad Poor Dad" author Robert Kiyosaki, who suggests a Bitcoin price of $350,000.
The research firm also expects major asset management firms to allocate over 2% of their AUM to Bitcoin purchases. Other market developments anticipated include advancements in Ethereum Layer-2 scaling solutions and DeFi.
Galaxy Research emphasizes the correlation between Elon Musk and the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) in influencing the memecoin's valuation.
Future Outlook
The next few years are expected to witness broader acceptance of cryptocurrencies and an increase in institutional investor participation. These developments could support appreciation in value for Dogecoin and other digital assets.
