Dogecoin price falls off a cliff as bears regain control


In the cryptocurrency world, there is always some sort of market momentum to take note of. As more and more markets start to turn a bit bearish right now, there will be some alternatives which bleed value. When looking at the current Dogecoin price, it would appear there is a lot of gained value being obliterated in quick succession. This massive retrace is not entirely surprising either, but few people expected it to be this violent.

Dogecoin Price Returns to Normal Levels

It is not entirely abnormal to see a cryptocurrency market lose most of its recent gains in quick succession. While this usually takes a few days to materialize, it seems things are heading in the wrong direction where Dogecoin is concerned. More specifically, the meme currency of the internet had recently risen to a rather high level in both USD and BTC value, butt hat no longer appears to be the case.

To put this in perspective, the Dogecoin price has dropped by over 13% across the board in rather quick succession. This rather violent setback has put a fair bit of pressure on Dogecoin right now, although it remains to be seen if the value will continue to drop in the near future. With a current value of $0.002825, or 54 Satoshi, things have certainly taken a drastic turn. Compared to the 62 Satoshi level established just last Friday, a lot of traders chasing this recent uptrend will not be too happy with the way things are going.

While the price action is not necessarily that promising right now, it would appear there is still a loyal Dogecoin following regardless. A recently shared image on Reddit shows how a Dogecoin and BitConnect Rocket League team went toe-to-toe recently. Although the BitCOnnect team will not necessarily make too many people, it is good to see Dogecoin being represented in video games regardless.


Day Trader * Crypto Trader is looking at the market from a very different perspective. Just a few hours ago, this user expected another Dogecoin “run” would be forming. A sit turns out, there is indeed a run, but not necessarily the uptrend some people would have liked to see. How this market will evolve over the coming hours and days, will be pretty difficult to predict, as anything is possible when such a price fluctuation takes place.

It would also appear this lower price can get more people interested in Dogecoin once again. More specifically, Senor Boken-Taco has recently purchased some Dogecoin, primarily because of Elon Musk’s “involvement” in DOGE. Considering how that latter angle turned out to be a complete joke, it also seems unlikely this purchase is genuine. Even so,  the Dogecoin community is still going strong regardless of the overall market momentum.

When looking at the bigger picture, a fair few cryptocurrency markets are under a bit of pressure right now. While Dogecoin is clearly leading the pack in terms of negative momentum, it is also the market which may rebound the quickest. Dogecoin is often a resilient market, which may effectively allow for some rather interesting momentum. Reclaiming the $0.003 level may not be all that easy,  but nothing is impossible in this particular industry.

Bitcoin’s Average Transaction fee Surpasses $50 as Network Issues Remain

Without sounding like a broken record, the bitcoin network fees are getting more ridiculous. Although this issue has been present for some time now, things are not improving. In fact, the average transaction fee is now well over $50. This is the highest it has been for quite some time. When and if this solution will be resolved, remains to be determined. Right now, it seems unlikely anything will change soon.

Using bitcoin is expensive beyond belief. It is not what Satoshi Nakamoto envisioned originally, that much is rather evident. In fact, the goal was to make bitcoin scale and accommodate more transactions over time. So far, that hasn’t happened. This is mainly due to companies struggling to integrate Segregated witness support. In some cases, they are purposely delaying this development as well. Something will have to give before the average transaction fee surpasses $100.

Average Transaction fee Keeps Rising

Although most people stopped caring about these high fees, it’s still an important issue. After all, if the average transaction fee keeps rising, things will get out of hand very quickly. Right now, it’s far too expensive to use bitcoin as a payment method. Nor is it a suitable way to combat high remittance fees. bitcoin has become too expensive for its own good and people grow tired of it. Unfortunately, paying this average transaction fee is the only solution right now.

Surprisingly, none of this is affecting the number of transactions. With nearly  350,000 processed in the past 24 hours, things are still looking good. Moreover, nearly 11% of the total market cap was transacted in the past day. Those numbers are still positive despite the glaring issues bitcoin brings to the table. It also seems the average transaction value is on the rise. This may be due to the average transaction fee mounting. Otherwise, it would make little sense for users to even spend BTC.

How all of this will pan out, is a big question. After all, it is evident this average transaction fee has to come down. Enforcing such a change will not be easy whatsoever. In fact, it may require some drastic changes no one is willing to pursue. All of this also makes bitcoin Cash look far more superior. The next few days and weeks may very well be critical to bitcoin’s survival in terms of being a “useful currency”. For now, things can easily go either way. It’s still a good store of value if you can stomach 30% dips overnight.
