@Mangyek0, leading cryptocurrency analyst at FXStreet, argues that capital rotation is ongoing in the crypto ecosystem. The analyst argues that investors\u2019 mindset towards Dogecoin has changed.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Poor adoption of Dogecoin across global businesses<\/h3>\n

Analysts argued that new announcements and a boost in utility of Dogecoin<\/a> could push the meme coin\u2019s price higher. However, bullish drivers have failed to trigger a rally in the meme coin\u2019s price.\u00a0<\/p>\n

A key factor in bearish sentiment on the meme coin is poor adoption by businesses. Motley Fool, a financial advice firm, recently revealed that 1300 business across the globe accept DOGE.\u00a0<\/p>\n

While 36% of the United States\u2019 small businesses accept Bitcoin, Dogecoin is struggling with a boost in its adoption. The hype built around Dogecoin adoption has sustained to drive a price rally in DOGE.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Michelle Jongbloets, a crypto YouTuber and analyst, evaluated the Dogecoin price chart and noted that the DOGE price is retracing. The analyst argues that it is alarming to see a 20-day moving average and 50 day moving average closing in. Dogecoin price is currently well above the two moving averages, however, a crossover could confirm a bearish phase in DOGE.\u00a0<\/p>\n
