What Is DOGE Day?

DOGE Day, celebrated every April 20 (4/20), is a crypto event popularized by Dogecoin fans and traders.

It originally began as an internet movement to push DOGE to $1 in 2021 and has since evolved into a yearly event marked by online campaigns, memes, and speculative trading activity. For many, it’s a tribute to the memecoin’s origins and a symbol of community-driven growth in the crypto space.

With a market cap of $23.2 billion at press time, Dogecoin maintains its status as the world’s largest memecoin community. However, the DOGE day celebrations have ticked-off with a more subdued tone. On Sunday, DOGE price hovered around $0.159, down 1.2% on the day.

This capped off a lackluster week that saw Dogecoin fail to break out of its consolidation range, stuck below $0.17 despite brief spikes in volume midweek.

The broader crypto market also saw mixed sentiment, with Bitcoin trading sideways near $83,000 and meme coins struggling to regain momentum after a hot Q1. While past DOGE Day celebrations often coincided with speculative surges, 2025’s edition fell short of the hype.

How Will Dogecoin Price React to DOGE Day 2025 Celebrations?

Historically, DOGE Day has sparked renewed interest and short-term rallies in the days leading up to April 20. In both 2021 and 2023, Dogecoin logged double-digit gains as traders piled in on bullish memes and viral campaigns.

But this year, the narrative has shifted — weighed down by political tension, fading enthusiasm, and bearish signals from Dogecoin’s most influential supporter, Elon Musk.

Recent backlash against Musk has cast a shadow over DOGE sentiment. The billionaire entrepreneur, now heading the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) within the Trump administration, has come under fire after job cuts triggered nationwide protests.

Investor sentiment, particularly among retail raders, has soured amid concerns over Musk’s political involvement with the DOGE agency and Trump’s renewed trade tariffs.

As a result, assets linked to Musk — including Tesla stock and Dogecoin — have struggled in recent weeks.

As seen in the chart above, Tesla’s TSLA share price closed trading at $241 on Friday shedding 4.15% in the past trading week. Likewise, DOGE price has shed over 12% from its local April high of $0.17 recorded on April 12.

Hence, the muted price action on Sunday, confirms that investors remain hesitant to enter large positions amid the 2025 DOGE Day celebrations.

Dogecoin Price Forecast: DOGE Risks Drop to $0.142 as Momentum Stalls Below Resistance

Dogecoin price forecast today leans cautiously bearish as DOGE struggles to hold above $0.1558, with technical indicators pointing to weakening momentum.

As depicted below, DOGE price is currently pinned just below the 5-day, 8-day, and 13-day simple moving averages — clustered tightly around $0.156 to $0.157 — forming a resistance band that has consistently capped upward attempts. The failure to reclaim this zone suggests bulls are losing steam after a sluggish DOGE Day performance.

The Relative Strength Index (RSI) reads 43.95, hovering just above its signal line at 43.06. While that reflects a mild attempt at recovery, it remains in bearish territory under 50, underscoring the lack of strong buyer conviction. The narrow range with declining volume, hinting at indecision and possible downside continuation.

Within these conditions, Dogecoin price is likely to break below the $0.15  and tumble  toward $0.142 — last tested during the April 13 sell-off.
