Crypto Analyst Predicts Huge Increase in Dogecoin Value: “Market Sentiment… Is As Bearish as It Was in Early February”
Cryptocurrency analyst and trader Ali Martinez he predicted a significant increase in the price of Dogecoin DOGE/USD.
What happened: According to a post on X on Friday, Martinez noted that Dogecoin market sentiment is as bearish as it was before its previous rally in February.
“Market sentiment for #Dogecoin is as bearish as it was in early February, just before #DOGE skyrocketed 200%!” He said.
In early March, DOGE hit $0.18 as Bitcoin’s BTC/USD rate rallied following the SEC’s approval of spot Bitcoin ETFs.
Whales also began moving large amounts of Dogecoin, with many transactions marked as purchases.
Martinez tweeted that Dogecoin whales have accumulated over 700 million DOGE in the last three days, worth approximately $112 million.

Whale Alert reported that approximately 1.5 billion DOGE were transferred anonymously in the last two days. The transactions included 420,696,969, 970,000,000 and 499,420,696 DOGE.
Additionally, 90,000,000 DOGE was withdrawn from Robinhood and transferred to an unknown address, totaling 1.579 billion DOGE worth $251,410,009.
As of this writing, DOGE is trading at $0.1598, up 2.89% after an overnight decline of 4.25%.
Because matter: Martinez’s prediction comes amid significant movement in the Dogecoin market. Last month, a transfer of 120 million DOGE to Robinhood coincided with a 4.45% increase in the cryptocurrency’s price. Whale Alert blockchain data highlighted this transfer, which was worth approximately $18.5 million.
In early March, another significant prediction was made by a crypto analyst who suggested Dogecoin Could Rise Over 200% and that he was “going to do something crazy in this cycle”.
