Galaxy Digital Reveals Bold Dogecoin Price Prediction For 2025

Every year-end, some of the top crypto analysts and crypto firms reflect on the industry’s performance, and look forward to the next year. Traditionally, the top digital assets, like Dogecoin, are subject to market analysis and price predictions. Related Reading: Bitcoin Dominates 2024, Outperforms Gold And Major Indices – Details Galaxy Digital, a leading blockchain company, has joined the conversations and offers its price prediction for Dogecoin, the market’s leading meme coin. According to the Galaxy Digital team, Dogecoin will finally breach $1 this year and top a $100 billion market cap. In its Crypto Predictions Report, the team expects that Dogecoin’s potential performance and market cap may be affected by the new Department of Government Efficiency (D.O.G.E.) operations, which they expect to call for cuts, impacting Dogecoin’s market capitalization. Dogecoin On Track To Hit $1 Soon? As part of this year’s wrap-up, Galaxy Digital has published its predictions for top digital assets and the industry in general. In a report published on its official website on December 31st, the company offers its team’s take on Bitcoin, Ethereum, stablecoins, and meme coins like Dogecoin. According to an opinion by Alex Thorn of the Galaxy Digital team, they see the world’s top meme coin finally hitting the $1 mark and its market cap finally reaching $100 billion. The target of $100 billion as a market cap is surprising since no other meme coins have achieved this feat. In 2021, Dogecoin surged in price and, for a moment, hit $98.7 billion, but its price immediately retreated. What To Expect From Dogecoin, According To Galaxy Digital If Dogecoin’s market cap finally reaches the $100 billion valuation, the token’s price will have hit $0.678, still below its all-time high of $0.739. If Dogecoin’s price surges to $0.678 to finally hit the $100 billion mark, it means that the price will have jumped by 87%. However, the Galaxy Digital team believes that $0.678 isn’t the price peak for Dogecoin this year. According to their estimates, Dogecoin will finally surpass its current all-time high and top $1. If this scenario happens, Dogecoin’s market cap will be $147.47 billion, an increase of 176% from its current valuation.

According to Thorn, Bitcoin will trade past $150k during the year’s first half and may test $185k by the last quarter. Thorn adds that the top digital asset will get support from increasing institutional adoption. The team expects Ethereum to trade over $5,500, adding that the second-best blockchain will benefit from favorable regulatory conditions for staking and DeFi. Ethereum will also benefit from the growing number of companies that will test their Layer 2 networks using Ethereum’s technology. Featured image by Anna Shvets from Pexels, chart from TradingView

Altcoins Surge As Crypto Market Kicks Off 2025 On A High Note

As the new year begins, the crypto market is experiencing a notable resurgence, with many altcoins outpacing Bitcoin (BTC) in performance. Bitcoin recently saw an increase of up to 2.9%, reaching $97,526, while alternative cryptos such as Ethereum (ETH), XRP, and Dogecoin (DOGE) surged by over 4%.  Notably, Solana (SOL) climbed an impressive 8.2%, signaling a renewed interest in digital assets beyond the leading cryptocurrency. Altcoins And Crypto Stocks Gain Momentum In New Year Chris Newhouse, director of research at Cumberland Labs, noted that investors are diversifying their portfolios as they enter 2025. “Market participants have started to allocate capital to representations of more speculative narratives,” he stated, highlighting a shift towards altcoins that may offer higher returns.  This trend aligns with historical data showing that digital assets often perform well in the first quarter, adding to the optimism surrounding the current market dynamics. Related Reading: XRP Surpasses USDT: Becomes 3rd Largest Crypto With $139 Billion Market Cap The positive momentum is further supported by the notion of capital rotation into thematic sectors, which Newhouse describes as a “strong tailwind for altcoins.”  Investors appear to be capitalizing on seasonal strength, coupled with improving macroeconomic conditions and an interest in narratives that extend beyond Bitcoin and Ethereum. This renewed enthusiasm isn’t limited to cryptocurrencies alone; crypto-dependent stocks are also benefiting from the market’s upswing.  On the first trading day of 2025, Coinbase shares climbed as much as 5.6%, while MicroStrategy and MARA Holdings saw increases of 7.3% and over 8%, respectively, indicating a growing confidence among investors in the broader cryptocurrency sector. Optimism Grows For 2025’s Bull Market Amid Regulatory Changes Despite the gains, it’s important to note that cryptocurrency prices remain below the highs experienced in December. Some market analysts suggest this dip may be fueling current buying activity.  Strahinja Savic, head of data and analytics at FRNT Financial Inc., remarked, “Rallies among alts like the one we are seeing today are investors following the popular crypto mantra of ‘buy the dip’ in anticipation of the bull market’s continuation.”  For many crypto investors, the fundamental case for a budding bull market remains robust, despite the inherent volatility. Looking ahead, many investors are optimistic about a more favorable regulatory environment for cryptocurrencies in 2025, particularly with the anticipated presidency of Donald Trump.  Trump’s election victory and the nomination of crypto-friendly individuals to his administration have already resulted in substantial inflows into altcoins that had previously faced scrutiny from the US Securities and Exchange Commission.
