Traders are asking whether crypto’s biggest and oldest meme coin Dogecoin (DOGE) might be doomed in wake of the DOGE price crashing to its lowest level since late-February just above $0.11, with some traders instead shifting their focus to a new competitor, whose just launched presale recently surged past $500,000.
The DOGE price dropped 6.5% on Thursday, taking weekly losses to more than 10%.

And many meme coin investors are hunting much bigger upside, i.e. 50-100x gains.
