Honestly, discussing the future of DOGE in this circle is a bit painful right now. But seeing so many people still all in on this coin, as someone who has been immersed in the market for years, I have to speak my mind.

What worries me the most isn't really the technical issues, but the fact that the fundamental support logic of this coin has already begun to shake.

**Sentiment is its lifeblood, but sentiment is also the most fragile**

Just think about DOGE's performance over the past few years — a tweet from a big V can trigger a surge, while months of silence can smash it down to the floor price. This reliance on consensus and emotion, in today's increasingly rational market participants, is becoming ineffective. Once the public's aesthetic fatigue hits a tipping point, the speed at which consensus disperses will be so fast that you won't be able to react.

**The trap of unlimited supply is deeper than you think**

From an economic perspective, DOGE having no supply cap is fundamentally problematic. Comparing it to scarce assets, what does unlimited issuance mean? It means no deflationary expectation; as long as market demand stagnates, it becomes a piece of paper printing infinite money. The essence of the Meme Coin track is, frankly, a race of who can run faster — the later entrants are just taking over from the earlier ones. This logic becomes especially glaring in a bear market.

**The lack of ecosystem is exposing itself**

Over the years, DOGE has been emphasizing its payment function, but what is the reality? Besides buying some merchandise, what else can you do with it? Looking at the current market, Layer 2 solutions are rapidly being implemented, AI sectors have numerous application scenarios, RWA is bringing real-world assets on-chain — every track is building solidly. And DOGE? It’s still stuck in the same place. Without an ecosystem moat, even the most dazzling story will gradually fade over time.

**How to choose**

If you're still holding a heavy position in DOGE, my advice is straightforward: stop fooling yourself. Gradually reduce your holdings and switch to underlying public chains or leading projects with real value support. We entered this market to make money, not to cling to a meme.

Risks always reveal themselves last. It’s smarter to adjust your positions now while there’s still time, rather than regret when your account is wiped out.

Listen, I think the logic of infinite supply he mentioned is a bit scary... --- Once again, that set of reduction suggestions, hearing it made my ears callus haha --- Expression pack economics, I’ve noted this term --- Meme coin is just hot potato, that really hit home for me --- The lack of ecosystem is really heartbreaking, compared to other chains, it’s indeed much worse --- Relying on tweets for price movements, the risk is truly outrageous --- Infinite issuance... just thinking about it makes me shiver, this is worse than a bad project --- Reducing positions in batches sounds easy, but when it’s time to actually do it, I still feel a bit reluctant --- You’re right, but I still went all in, just betting it all --- Projects still discussing payment features should basically be abandoned --- Meme coins will eventually be taught a lesson by time, this logic can’t be avoided --- I just want to know, when the account is truly wiped out, how should I self-rescue

Basically, this wave of DOGE is just an emotional game. A single tweet can pump the price, and after months of silence, it crashes to the ground. It was obvious to see this logic long ago. --- Many people haven't thought through the issue of unlimited supply. Without scarcity, there's no support, and in the end, it's just bagholders fighting each other. --- There's nothing in the ecosystem except stories and memes? Now AI and RWA are racing to expand their territories, while DOGE remains stagnant. The gap will only widen. --- Instead of going all-in on a meme, it's better to look at projects with real value. The crypto space is for making money, not for陪葬. --- Take advantage of the chance to adjust now, and cut your losses quickly. It's too late once your account hits zero. --- Holding DOGE heavily now is somewhat a form of self-hypnosis. --- Layer by layer, it's just a game of taking over the bag. Whoever runs faster makes money; those who can't will just wait to be cut. --- When aesthetic fatigue sets in, consensus disperses much faster than you think. By then, reactions will be overwhelmed.

ngl this reads like someone finally admitting what we've all been thinking... but honestly? the real issue isn't doge, it's that people mistook sentiment for fundamentals and called it "adoption curves"

Bro, this article really hits home. I’m also considering running with my DOGE holdings. Not gonna lie, emotional trading always ends up crashing someday. When everyone goes all-in, they won’t even have time to cry. Infinite supply is a trap... Honestly, I’ve seen through it long ago. Just waiting to see who ends up footing the bill. But switching to other projects also requires caution. The market is never short of new pump-and-dump games. From your analysis, it seems I should start rebalancing my portfolio. Waiting any longer really poses too much risk. Meme culture can’t support the coin’s price for much longer, and you’re right about that.
