DTCC’s Anticipation of BlackRock’s Bitcoin Spot ETF Fuels Cryptocurrency Market Rally
The cryptocurrency market has experienced a rally in the past week, driven by the anticipation of BlackRock’s forthcoming bitcoin spot ETF. Alongside this, meme coins Dogecoin (DOGE) and Shiba Inu (SHIB) have also seen positive performance.
However, DOGE and SHIB have underperformed compared to bitcoin and many other cryptocurrencies. This suggests that traders are seeking more attractive buying opportunities and may have shifted their focus away from these speculative assets.
The Underperforming Growth of DOGE and SHIB After Bitcoin’s Rally
DOGE and SHIB have seen gains of 8.6% and 8.2% respectively in the past 24 hours. Despite these gains, they fell short of traders’ expectations following last week’s rally fueled by bitcoin’s surge and rumors of BlackRock’s ETF approval.
With the overall market gaining $190 billion in seven days, DOGE and SHIB have underperformed compared to other cryptocurrencies, indicating a shift in speculative interest.
DOGE experienced a price increase of 22.75% due to Elon Musk’s announcement of video calling for premium users on the X platform. However, there is speculation about DOGE losing its market dominance if it is not integrated into the social platform.
Alternative Options Gain Attention
Other cryptocurrencies such as LINK, ORDI, HEX, POWR, TRB, ELON, FLOKI, and PEPE have gained attention from traders with significant price increases during bitcoin’s rally.
This shift in focus from DOGE and SHIB to alternative options suggests that investors are exploring younger and easier-to-manipulate cryptocurrencies for potential gains.
Hot Take: The Future of DOGE and SHIB
It remains to be seen whether the underperformance of DOGE and SHIB is an isolated case or the beginning of a trend where these popular meme coins are displaced by other cryptocurrencies. Monitoring their future performance will provide insights into their market position.
