Dogecoin rallies due to this coincidence, but will DOGE get past the bears

• Dogecoin shows bullish signs in terms of AltRank
• Despite a high number of mentions and engagements, the sentiment around DOGE remained negative

According to a 26 November tweet by LunarCrush, a social analytics firm, Dogecoin [DOGE]’s AltRank scores were showing bullish signs. The AltRank level, which is based on combining factors such as social volume, social score and market volume, could play a part in giving insights about DOGE’s future. 

Dogecoin $DOGE may be ready for another push higher as its AltRank™ score is at the same low (bullish) levels it was at the beginning of this week’s move up.

DOGE developers get to work

Dogecoin’s development activity, however, witnessed a massive spike over the last few days. This spike would suggest that the development team at Dogecoin made a lot of contributions to its GitHub repository. High development activity could suggest the possibility of new upgrades on Dogecoin’s ecosystem in the future.

The memecoin‘s network also witnessed a growth in terms of activity over the last week. As can be seen from the image below, the number of active addresses spiked multiple times over the last seven days. 

However, its velocity declined during the same period, implying that the number of times DOGE was transferred amongst addresses had decreased.
