Dogecoin Price Today, 25 November 2025: DOGE Holds Near $0.15 as First U.S. Spot ETF Hits Wall Street

Dogecoin is trading in the mid‑$0.14s to low‑$0.15s on Tuesday, 25 November 2025, as the first U.S. spot Dogecoin ETF begins trading on the NYSE and crypto markets stage a fragile relief rally from recent multi‑month lows. ^[1]

Despite the historic ETF listing, price action so far looks more like a cautious bounce than a euphoric breakout, with on‑chain data still showing whale selling and softer futures demand.

Dogecoin price today: key numbers on 25 November 2025

Because crypto trades across dozens of exchanges, price and percentage change can differ slightly by data provider. Here’s the rough consensus picture for DOGE as of Tuesday:

Spot price: around $0.148–$0.152
- CoinDesk shows Dogecoin at about $0.1468 earlier today. ^[2]
- Global crypto dashboards and regional media place DOGE near $0.1515–$0.1525 in midday trading. ^[3]
- Live market feeds put the current price close to $0.1476, with an intraday range roughly between $0.146 and $0.154.
24‑hour move:
- Depending on whether you compare against yesterday’s close or rolling 24‑hour levels, DOGE is up about 1–5% on the day.
- YCharts data shows a reference price of $0.1519, up 4.7% from $0.145 yesterday. ^[4]
Market cap & ranking:
- Dogecoin remains a top‑10 cryptocurrency, sitting around #9 by market cap with an estimated valuation near $22.3 billion and 24‑hour volume just under $1 billion. ^[5]
Broader market context:
- The global crypto market cap has climbed back to about $3.0–3.1 trillion, up roughly 2% over the past 24 hours. ^[6]
- Bitcoin is hovering just under $89,000, while XRP and other majors are also posting single‑digit percentage gains. ^[7]

In short, DOGE is green on the day but still trading well below its September highs and far from its old all‑time high near $0.74.

Wall Street finally gets a Dogecoin ETF

The biggest Dogecoin story of 25 November 2025 is not the price level itself but how investors can now get exposure.

Grayscale’s GDOG goes live

Grayscale has launched the Grayscale Dogecoin Trust ETF (ticker: GDOG) on NYSE Arca, the first spot Dogecoin ETF available to U.S. investors. ^[8]

Key details reported across today’s coverage:

Structure: GDOG is a spot ETF converted from Grayscale’s earlier private Dogecoin Trust, with Coinbase Custody holding the underlying DOGE. ^[9]
Launch metrics: The fund opened with about $1.71 million in net assets, holding roughly 11.1 million DOGE across 94,700 shares (about 117.58 DOGE per share). ^[10]
Fees: Grayscale is waiving the management fee for the first three months or until the ETF reaches $1 billion in assets, after which a 0.35% annual fee applies. ^[11]

Indonesian outlet Pintu notes that the product is framed as a milestone for memecoins entering “serious” finance, with Grayscale jokingly promoting it using the classic “much wow, big ETP” meme. ^[12]

Another Dogecoin ETF, Bitwise’s “BWOW”, is expected to follow on U.S. exchanges, extending the meme‑asset ETF theme. ^[13]

Historic launch, but early trading volume underwhelms

If the narrative stopped at “first Dogecoin ETF,” you might expect DOGE to be moon‑walking up the chart. Reality is more muted.

Forecast vs reality

Ahead of launch, ETF analysts like Eric Balchunas floated expectations of roughly $10–12 million in first‑day trading for GDOG. ^[14]

Actual numbers tell a different story:

CoinCentral reports GDOG logged only about $1.41 million in day‑one trading volume on 24 November, well below those forecasts. ^[15]
A separate analysis describes the debut as landing with a “whimper”, noting zero net creations and thin liquidity, and arguing that XRP, ETH and SOL ETFs attracted far more capital on the day. ^[16]

Put together, the ETF is symbolically huge for Dogecoin but practically modest so far in terms of institutional flows.

How Dogecoin’s price reacted: a relief rally, not a mania spike

Despite the soft ETF volumes, Dogecoin did react, but in a measured way rather than a meme‑age frenzy.

Breakout from short‑term resistance

A detailed CoinDesk market note says DOGE: ^[17]

Rallied from roughly $0.1466 to $0.1538 over the latest 24‑hour session.
Broke through resistance near $0.148 on strong volume, with intraday activity almost 94% above the weekly average.
Hit an intraday high just above $0.154, with the strongest push happening in a one‑hour burst between about $0.148 and $0.152.

Other data sources and media outlets see similar levels, with price clustering around $0.151–$0.152 for much of the day and intraday swings driven by ETF headlines and the broader crypto bounce. ^[18]

Still below major resistance

However, technical analysts across multiple outlets converge on the same conclusion: this is not a clean trend reversal yet.

Pintu and The Coin Republic both highlight $0.15, $0.16 and roughly $0.19–$0.20 as stacked resistance levels Dogecoin must clear to confirm a larger breakout. ^[19]
CoinEdition adds a further upside ladder at $0.150, $0.159, $0.18 and $0.20, calling $0.20 the key Fibonacci resistance for a broader trend shift. ^[20]
The ETF‑driven spike stalled right in front of that $0.153–$0.154 zone, which several analyses flag as the first serious ceiling for bulls. ^[21]

In other words: DOGE managed to step away from the ledge, but it’s still pacing on the balcony, not sprinting up the stairs.

Whale selling vs ETF hype: the tug‑of‑war under the surface

Zooming out from price candles, on‑chain data and derivatives tell a story of weak but stabilizing demand.

7 billion DOGE offloaded by large holders

Multiple analytics‑driven reports note that whales have been selling aggressively in recent weeks:

Addresses holding 10–100 million DOGE offloaded or redistributed around 7 billion DOGE over roughly a month, closely tracking the price decline into the mid‑$0.14 region. ^[22]
Analysts interpret this as a mix of profit‑taking and risk reduction, which has weighed on price but also reduced whale concentration if new buyers step in. ^[23]

Despite that selling, short‑term momentum indicators are starting to flip:

Both CoinPaper and Intellectia highlight a bullish MACD crossover on the 4‑hour chart, often treated as an early sign that bearish momentum is fading. ^[24]
Several charts show DOGE repeatedly bouncing near $0.14–$0.145, reinforcing that zone as near‑term support. ^[25]

Softer flows and shrinking futures leverage

CoinEdition points out that, even with the ETF catalyst, flows still reflect caution: ^[26]

Recent readings show spot outflows of about $7.56 million from DOGE on 25 November as the token trades near $0.148.
Open interest in DOGE futures has fallen from over $5 billion earlier in 2025 to around $1.47 billion, a huge drop in leverage even though derivatives activity remains significant.

This combination—less speculative leverage, modest ETF flows, and waning whale selling—is exactly what you would expect in a late‑downtrend / early‑accumulation environment: not exciting, but structurally important.

Macro: Fed rate‑cut bets and the altcoin ETF wave

Dogecoin isn’t moving in a vacuum. Today’s price action sits inside a broader macro and ETF story.

Fed expectations flip from hawkish to dovish

A widely cited macro note from Finance Magnates attributes much of the crypto rebound to shifting U.S. Federal Reserve expectations: ^[27]

Odds of a December rate cut have jumped from around 40% to more than 80%, according to prediction and futures markets.
Crypto markets have responded with a 2–3% bounce in total market cap, and a move from “extreme fear” toward cautious optimism.

ABP Live’s daily price wrap echoes the same picture: Bitcoin stabilizing near $88,000–$89,000, Ethereum around $2,900, and memecoins like DOGE posting modest gains after a harsh drawdown. ^[28]

Trump‑era crypto push and the DOGE/XRP ETF “breakthrough”

On the political side of the story, ZyCrypto frames the DOGE and XRP ETFs as a “Trump‑era crypto breakthrough,” noting that Grayscale’s DOGE and XRP products ($GDOG and $GXRP) are part of a broader campaign pledge to permit a wide range of crypto ETFs. ^[29]

The article underlines:

The New York Stock Exchange now hosts spot ETFs tied to XRP and Dogecoin.
These launches arrive amid a deep market slump where total crypto value has shed roughly a third from earlier highs, giving the ETF approvals outsized narrative importance. ^[30]

Whatever your view on the politics, it’s clear that regulated meme‑asset access is now a real feature of the market, not a hypothetical.

The “DOGE Department” shutdown: political noise, meme fuel

Adding to the narrative weirdness, Dogecoin’s brand collided with U.S. bureaucracy in headline form.

CryptoNews reports that the U.S. Department of Government Efficiency (acronym: DOGE) has been officially shut down, following reports of a split between President Donald Trump and Elon Musk, who was previously associated with leading the agency’s cost‑cutting drive. ^[31]

Crucially:

The department never had any direct link to the Dogecoin cryptocurrency, besides sharing a name. ^[32]
Nonetheless, traders briefly treated the “DOGE shutdown” headline as a potential bearish catalyst in an already fragile market. ^[33]
Instead of collapsing, DOGE actually rose around 1% over the following day, a reminder that meme coins often ignore traditional cause‑and‑effect logic. ^[34]

The episode underscores a recurring Dogecoin theme: narratives matter, but not always in the way you’d expect.

Technical outlook: key DOGE levels to watch after the ETF debut

Pulling together today’s technical commentary, several levels and patterns are getting the most attention.

Support zones

Across analyses from CoinDesk, CoinEdition, The Coin Republic and Pintu, the following zones are widely cited: ^[35]

$0.144–$0.145:
- Short‑term support where buyers repeatedly stepped in ahead of and during the ETF launch.
$0.133:
- Identified as the “main support zone” by several analysts; a recent low where the last sell‑off halted. ^[36]
$0.115:
- Highlighted in longer‑term weekly analyses as a deeper support target if the broader downtrend resumes. ^[37]

A clean breakdown below $0.13 would, in many technical frameworks, reopen the door to fresh lows and invalidate the current wedge‑bounce structure. ^[38]

Resistance and breakout levels

On the upside, most of today’s analyses cluster around a similar staircase of resistance:

$0.15: Psychological and structural resistance; DOGE is currently fighting to hold above it. ^[39]
$0.153–$0.154: The zone where the ETF rally stalled, and where multiple technical reports place immediate resistance. ^[40]
$0.159–$0.163: Next resistance band; clearing it would signal a more convincing trend shift. ^[41]
$0.18–$0.20:
- CoinEdition flags $0.18 and $0.20 as crucial medium‑term targets. ^[42]
- Pintu suggests that a breakout above a wedge pattern could see quick spikes toward the $0.20 area before long‑term bearish forces potentially reassert. ^[43]

Some longer‑horizon Wyckoff‑style analyses even imagine a move back toward $0.29–$0.30 in a full “Phase E” breakout—but those scenarios assume a much healthier macro backdrop and sustained ETF inflows, which are not visible yet. ^[44]

Trend still officially bearish

Several recurring bearish markers remain in place:

DOGE continues to trade below its 200‑day moving average, a classic sign of an ongoing downtrend. ^[45]
A “death cross”—where the 50‑day moving average crosses below the 200‑day—formed in late October and has not yet been decisively invalidated. ^[46]
ETF flows, while symbolically important, are still modest compared with previous meme‑coin mania periods or with today’s stronger altcoin ETFs like XRP and SOL. ^[47]

Put simply: the short‑term setup is improving, but the larger trend is still cautious‑to‑bearish until DOGE can hold above multiple resistance tiers.

What today means for Dogecoin traders and long‑term holders

From a market‑structure perspective, 25 November 2025 is a big day for Dogecoin’s story, even if the candles are not spectacular:

Access: U.S. investors now have a regulated, exchange‑traded way to gain DOGE exposure without touching a crypto wallet. That can matter for institutions with strict mandates. ^[48]
Signal: Meme‑coin ETFs sit alongside Bitcoin, Ethereum, XRP and Solana products, suggesting that—rightly or wrongly—the market increasingly treats DOGE as a permanent part of the crypto landscape, not just a passing joke. ^[49]
Reality check: The underwhelming ETF volume and lingering whale selling show that brand and memes aren’t enough when the broader market is in a risk‑off, high‑rate environment. ^[50]

For now, Dogecoin appears to be in a delicate balance:

ETF headlines and a macro bounce are nudging price higher.
Structural factors—reduced leverage, cautious flows, and lingering downtrend signals—are keeping that move in check.

How DOGE trades around the $0.15–$0.16 band and the $0.144–$0.133 support zone over the coming days will give the clearest clues about whether this is just another bear‑market rally or the early stages of a more durable base.

As always, this article is informational only, not investment advice. Crypto assets, especially meme coins like Dogecoin, are highly volatile. Anyone considering exposure—whether via spot markets or the new GDOG ETF—should carefully assess their risk tolerance, do independent research, and be prepared for large price swings in either direction.
