The platform explained that it uses weekly and quarterly surveys to gauge experts’ predictions on Dogecoin’s future price; the latest quarterly survey, conducted in July, “asked a panel of 54 industry experts about their thoughts on how Dogecoin will perform over the next decade. They were asked for their thoughts.”
The panel was asked, “Do you think Doge will completely lose its value?” asked, with 55% saying yes, 21% believing the meme cryptocurrency will bounce back, and 24% unsure. As for when DOGE coin prices will lose all value, 3% said it will happen within the year, 12% see it happening next year, 9% see it happening in 2024, and 30% said meme crypto will completely lose value after 2025.
“We are a bit removed from the days when people thought DOGE would go to the moon,” Finder explained.
“More than half (55%) are worried about staying on Earth in the future; one in five (21%) see DOGE getting back on its feet.
