Dogecoin has overtaken Bitcoin, Ethereum, and XRP in futures market activity, according to the latest CoinGlass data.

Open interest in Dogecoin futures rose 5.09% over the past 24 hours. Open interest measures the total value of active derivatives contracts and is often used to track trader conviction and short-term market momentum.

DOGE Leads the Futures Market

Dogecoin’s futures open interest reached $1.79 billion, while daily futures volume climbed to $3.99 billion. That marks an 81.62% increase over the same period.

The contrast with the rest of the market is clear.

Bitcoin’s open interest fell 0.36%, while Ethereum’s rose only 0.94%. Both assets were trading lower, with daily price declines of about 1.46%.

Solana showed weaker momentum. Its open interest dropped 5.96%, while its price fell 4.21%. XRP also lost traction, with open interest down 2.52% and price down 1.81%.

As a result, Dogecoin is standing out in a market where traders are reducing exposure to several major crypto assets.

The latest data suggests that traders are still willing to take leveraged bets on DOGE, even as risk appetite cools elsewhere. 

That does not guarantee further upside, but it shows that Dogecoin currently has stronger futures momentum than many larger assets.

What Comes Next for DOGE?

Dogecoin traded near $0.11328 at the time of analysis, according to BeInCrypto data. The memecoin was up 1.03% over the past 24 hours.

That made DOGE one of the few major crypto assets by market capitalization still trading in positive territory.

The combination of spot price strength and rising futures activity supports a short-term bullish reading. Dogecoin has broken away from the weaker trend seen across much of the market.

However, leverage remains the main risk.

A rise in open positions can accelerate gains when price moves higher. It can also deepen losses if the market turns quickly. Forced liquidations could add pressure if DOGE loses key support levels.

For now, traders are watching whether Dogecoin can hold the $0.11 level. Continued inflows into futures markets would also be important.

If both conditions hold, Dogecoin could continue to outperform the broader crypto market in the short term.
