Dogecoin (DOGE) currently ranks 10th among all cryptocurrencies by market cap. However, capital constantly shifts among projects and in or out of the cryptocurrency market itself. With a market value of $11.40 billion, DOGE holds 0.72% of the entire $1.567 trillion crypto market . Essentially, each Dogecoin is priced at $0.0798, with 142.825 billion DOGE in circulation. In this context, Finbold looked to what would happen to the leading memecoin facing a capital inflow. Supply and demand frequently drive Dogecoin’s price up or down as funds move to and from other cryptocurrencies. Bitcoin, for instance, captures about 52% of the total market cap, boasting a nearly $820 billion valuation. If Dogecoin captured just 1% more of the total crypto market value, its market cap would jump by $15.67 billion, reaching $27.07 billion. This could push DOGE’s price to $0.1895, assuming its circulating supply would stay steady. DOGE market cap vs. the total crypto index Cryptocurre

The Lifeboat Foundation is still claiming to be a government-sanctioned charity despite it still being unclear exactly what it does with the donations it receives. The organization, which Protos covered all the way back in 2021, describes itself as a 501(c)3 charity but is best known in Crypto circles for its donors, which include a host of important Crypto currency advocates and founders such as Vitalik Buterin, Stuart Hoegner, JR Willett, and Charles Hoskinson.

The long-anticipated spot-Bitcoin ETF approval hasn’t brought the result investors hoped for, as Bitcoin (BTC) lost its footing and recently fell below the $40,000 threshold. Now, attention has shifted to the Bitcoin halving , with Ethereum (ETH) potentially being the primary beneficiary of this event. Upon the completion of mining 210,000 blocks, which occurs approximately every four years, the block reward allocated to Bitcoin miners for transaction processing undergoes a halving . This event is named halving due to its impact on reducing the rate at which new BTCs are introduced into circulation by half. This event aims to decrease the circulation of new coins and thus increase the price of flagship crypto. Ethereum to outpace Bitcoin, according to Cathie Wood Cathie Wood, the Chief Executive Officer of ARK Invest, is recognized for her optimistic outlook on cryptocurrencies, with a notable emphasis on Bitcoin and Ethereum.

Throughout this year, several digital assets have failed to live up to expectations. Indeed, the industry has seen various cryptocurrencies perform below predictions almost one month into 2024. One of the hardest-hit assets is Ripple (XRP), but could its continued descent below $0.50 finally trigger a turnaround? Many have expected the asset to reach a bottom, and return upward at some point shortly. It has recently broken below the crucial $0.55 level. Currently, the asset is trading at $0.50 and down more than 1% over the last 24 hours according to CoinMarketCap. Yet, further losses leave some optimism that buying could commence, and an upward reversal could be in store.
