Following the bitcoin recovery above the $76,000 level last week, the Dogecoin 
price also saw a notable increase, rising by more than 10% in a 7-day period. 
This naturally saw a rise in interest in the meme coin and translated to a 
surge in its open interest. While this initial surge has been bullish, it now 
begs the question of whether the digital asset will be able to maintain this 
trajectory or risk another crash. Dogecoin Open Interest Reaches 2-Month Highs 
When the Dogecoin price surged past $0.1 recently, the open interest rose 
rapidly at the same time. The result of this surge was that the open interest 
had risen to levels not seen in more than two months. This pushed it toward 
the January 2026 highs, registering a notable change from the muted 
performance of the last two months. Related Reading: Strategy Overtakes 
BlackRock’s Bitcoin Holdings, But Is Saylor Done Buying? According to data 
from the on-chain tracking website, Coinglass, the Dogecoin open interest 
reached above $1.4 billion at its highest. While there has been a decline from

analyst points to this as being a consolidation phase. Related Reading: 
Analyst Sounds Bitcoin Warning: This Surge Above $78,000 Should Not Be Trusted 
Consolidation phases usually precede big moves, and looking at the fact that 
the Dogecoin price has maintained support above $0.07, the crypto analyst 
believes that the direction is likely to be upward. This will happen with a 
new volume influx and could lead to a bullish breakout. Once this happens, the 
analyst’s chart suggests that the Dogecoin price could see an over 40% 
increase as a result. Such a move would put the men coin price above the $1.4 
level. “From a technical standpoint, as long as Dogecoin holds above the $0.07 
support level, the structure remains favorable for a bullish breakout,” the 
analyst stated. “This level acts as a key foundation for buyers, and 
maintaining support here keeps the upside scenario intact.. Featured image
