Source: CryptoNewsNet Original Title: Dogecoin pops 4% amid memecoin rally as a short-term golden cross flashes Original Link: https://cryptonews.net/news/analytics/32223187/ Dogecoin rose to $0.1516 as buyers pushed the token back through a key technical band on volume running well above its 30-day norm — a move that signals renewed speculative appetite in meme coins even as the broader market remains range-bound.

News background

Dogecoin and Pepe helped drive a sharp meme coin bounce as traders leaned back into “meme season” positioning to start 2026. DOGE rose about 11% on the day in the broader rally, while PEPE gained roughly 17%, with other dog-themed names also advancing — Shiba Inu up about 8%, Bonk up nearly 11%, and Floki up close to 10%.

The move extended beyond large caps. Mog Coin climbed about 14% on the day and around 37% over seven days, while Popcat gained nearly 9% and is up more than 17% on the week — a pattern traders often interpret as speculative flows spilling from larger tokens into smaller, higher-beta names once liquidity returns.

DOGE-3,12%

PEPE-3,11%

SHIB-1,92%
