Dogecoin (DOGE), the popular meme coin inspired by the Shiba Inu dog, has witnessed a surge in adoption, particularly among retail investors. This heightened activity suggests that FOMO (Fear of Missing Out) is driving their investment decisions.

Are Retail Investors Fuelling DOGE's Resurgence?

According to Altcoin analyst Kate The Alt, charts indicate a surge in retail activity. Investors are flocking to purchase DOGE, potentially motivated by a boost in price momentum.

FOMO Among Retail Investors

Possible Catalyst: Change of Administration

Some analysts speculate that the anticipation of increased utility following the upcoming U.S. presidential inauguration (January 20) may have sparked this surge. The rumored role of technology entrepreneur Elon Musk in the newly created Department of Government Efficiency (D.O.G.E.) has fuelled this speculation.

Increased Trading Activity

Additionally, Kate The Alt notes a notable increase in Dogecoin trades. The number of trades across exchanges has reached an all-time high, indicating heightened participation and FOMO among investors.

Uncertainty Surrounding DOGE's $1 Goal

At the time of writing, DOGE's price has gained 0.83% to $0.3913. However, recent price fluctuations have led to speculation that its pursuit of $1 may falter. This concern stems from the recent pullback in the price of Bitcoin, the dominant cryptocurrency.

However, DOGE's rebound amidst a market downturn suggests that its correlation with Bitcoin could aid its $1 ambition as the overall market recovers.
