Before the impressive surge Saturday, DOGE made it to LunarCrash's top 10 coins list by one-week AltRank, sitting on the fourth spot. This positive development suggests that Dogecoin is again gaining prominence in the crypto market.

Interestingly, while DOGE is seemingly making a comeback, financial market data and content platform Santiment noted that it could be a candidate for a breakout. While DOGE, along with BNB, BTC and LINK, saw high levels of Fear, Uncertainty, Doubt (FUD), there is a high possibility it could see a price breakout.

"The majority of #crypto assets are seeing major negativity from the trading community right now. But keep your eye on $BTC, $BNB, $DOGE, and $LINK. These top caps are showing particularly high levels of #FUD that can lead to eventual breakouts," a tweet read.

Aside from those, six new Ethereum whales recently purchased a 640 DOGE. There was also a 5.13% increase in addresses (whales) holding between 100 million and one billion DOGE.

DOGE was trading down 2.44% at $0.06159 with a 24-hour volume of $375,066,170 as of 11:43 a.m. ET Sunday, according to the latest data from CoinMarketCap.
