The rally has come amid a post on social-media platform by DOGE influencer Elon Musk posting on the platform an image featuring him and a brawny image of the Doge mascot.

Prominent crypto analyst Ali Martinez sees the rally to extend. Sharing a chart on X, he said if DOGE breaks the $0.143 resistance, it could be in for a 25% rally up to $0.175.

Doge is currently trading well off its all-time high of $0738 hit on May 8, 2021, amid Musk’s appearance on the Saturday Night Live show. It pulled back along with the equity markets in 2022 and fell as low as 0.066 toward the end of the year. 

The meme crypto was range-bound for much of 2023 before reclaiming the 0.10 handle in February this year.
