Dogecoin Plunges After Rally, Sparking Outcry on Reddit

Dogecoin, a Shiba Inu-themed digital coin started as a joke that became the latest obsession for retail traders this week, plunged almost by half Saturday, sparking a flurry of posts on Reddit and Twitter begging coin holders not to panic sell.

The digital coin is down 46% in the last 24 hours and was at $0.02582 as of 4:35 p.m. in New York on Saturday, according to CoinMarketCap data. The plunge came after a blistering sevenfold surge on Friday, when the coin reached over $0.07.

Amid the rally, Robinhood temporarily halted instant deposits for crypto buying on Friday, citing “extraordinary market conditions,” a spokesperson told CNBC. Users could still use funds already deposited in the platform to buy cryptos.

Users on the Reddit thread SatoshiStreetBets — which describes itself as the “crypto version of WallStreetBets” — are imploring others to hold on to Dogecoin and not to switch to other cryptos.

“To those saying hype is over… we just saw proof over the past 3-4 nights of our collective efforts being effective. The moment we lose each other is the moment we fail,” one poster said. “Look at the way money is printed. Doge could potentially be used as well. Never say never.”

Dogecoin became the latest obsession of retail traders partly because Tesla Inc. founder Elon Musk posted an image on Twitter of a “Dogue” magazine cover featuring a whippet in a red outfit. Although no further explanation was given, many believed it’s a reference to Dogecoin.
