In the recent times, price rise of DOGE, SHIB gave hopes of a memecoin rally amid a bearish environment. While SHIB took a sudden spike in last few days, DOGE rose steadily over a week’s time. As the market continues to experience turbulent times, a memecoin season could prove to be the much needed push. In line with this, even Bitcoin saw a short rally over the last one month.
However, chances are that the ongoing Bitcoin rally is just a brief aberration. Experts believe the next few months could see Bitcoin take a significant fall in price. In this context, certain influencers believe a memecoin rally could pan out well for crypto investors. The community is also anticipating the Ethereum Merge scheduled for September 15. Many believe the network upgrade could be a catalyst for the current bear market cycle.
