Dogecoin News Today: Institutional Bet on Dogecoin: Treasury, ETF Hopes, and a Golden Cross Converge

DOGE price action over the past 24 hours has shown a 4% rise, with trading volumes significantly exceeding the 24-hour average. Institutional activity is increasingly influencing price movements, particularly around key support and resistance levels at $0.214 and $0.223. During this period, trading volumes surged to 416.41 million tokens, far above the average of 244.87 million, as resistance at $0.223 was tested [1]. Analysts remain divided, with some forecasting a potential decline toward $0.17 Fibonacci support, while others project a bullish scenario with price targets as high as $1.00–$1.40, based on historical pattern repetitions [1].

A key factor influencing investor sentiment is the potential approval of a Dogecoin ETF. Prediction markets, such as Polymarket, have shown a marked increase in the likelihood of ETF approval, with odds rising from 51% to 71% in recent weeks [1]. Institutional positioning is also evident, with traders closely monitoring the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission’s (SEC) regulatory timeline. The Bitwise Dogecoin ETF is now expected to receive approval by October 18, potentially alongside the Grayscale and 21Shares funds later in the year [2]. If approved, these ETFs could drive significant inflows into the Dogecoin market, with estimates suggesting a 3% market capitalization capture could bring total assets to approximately $3 billion [2].

A major development supporting Dogecoin’s institutionalization is the launch of the first official Dogecoin treasury by CleanCore Solutions, a publicly traded company specializing in aqueous ozone cleaning systems. This $175 million initiative, backed by over 80 institutional and crypto-native investors, aims to position Dogecoin as a primary treasury asset [3]. The move is seen as a strategic step to institutionalize the asset, mirroring Bitcoin’s treasury and ETF adoption model. Analysts suggest that this could unlock billions in institutional demand, especially with the 21Shares Dogecoin ETP already approved in Europe and a 79% chance of a U.S. spot ETF approval in 2025, as per Polymarket data [3].

Technical analysis also provides a cautiously optimistic outlook. The weekly chart shows Dogecoin trading within a bullish megaphone pattern, with a key bounce off the lower trendline at $0.15 in June signaling potential for another significant upward move [3]. Analysts have highlighted the possibility of a price surge to $1.40, representing a 550% increase from current levels. Additionally, the daily chart shows DOGE consolidating within a symmetric triangle pattern, with a breakout above $0.225 potentially leading to a 72% price increase [3]. The formation of a golden cross—a bullish technical signal—further supports the idea of a new upward trend, particularly if the price avoids a deeper decline toward $0.19–$0.16 [3].

Market conditions remain supportive, with macroeconomic factors such as the Federal Reserve’s rate path and treasury adoption narratives boosting risk-on sentiment. Whale activity and treasury inflows are also being closely monitored as indicators of accumulation versus distribution. While the path forward is not without risks, the convergence of institutional adoption, technical patterns, and regulatory progress has generated cautious optimism among traders and analysts alike.
