DOGS Meme Coin Secures Listing on Bitget’s PoolX Platform

DOGS, the recently launched TON-based meme coin, has secured a listing on another popular crypto exchange while short traders continue to bet on its price fall.

The recently launched TON-based meme coin, called DOGS, has secured another listing on a major crypto exchange, while short traders are betting on a price decline.

According to a press release on Aug. 27, Bitget has listed DOGS on its PoolX platform following a successful pre-market phase that began on July 12.

The pre-market period reportedly generated significant trading activity and interest within the TON community, allowing early Bitget users to engage with the DOGS token prior to its wider release.

During this phase, Bitget also conducted a gas-free airdrop campaign, enabling users to claim DOGS tokens without incurring transaction fees. By connecting their accounts through the DOGS Telegram mini-app, participants could easily gain access to their tokens.

With DOGS now available on PoolX, users can stake USDT to enter a giveaway pool of 5 million DOGS, which will run until 9 AM UTC on Sept. 2.

PoolX on Bitget is a platform feature that lets users stake cryptocurrencies or participate in liquidity mining to earn rewards. By staking assets in PoolX, users can gain additional tokens or interest, offering a way to earn passive income without active trading.

The DOGS token began trading on major centralized exchanges, including Binance, Bybit, OKX, Bitget, and Gate, on Aug. 26 at 12 pm UTC. Within the first 10 hours, the Telegram-native meme coin reached a market cap of $624 million, with a trading volume of $1.74 billion.

Following the launch of DOGS, Telegram Wallet and these crypto exchanges experienced temporary disruptions as millions of users flocked to trade the DOGS token.

The meme coin has since declined by 27% and continues to drop, according to hourly charts on CoinGecko. The memecoin was trading at $0.0012, with its daily trading volume at $1.67 billion.

According to Coinglass data, the total open interest for DOGS has seen a massive surge to $90.38 million, reflecting a huge increase in trader interest in the memecoin. This suggests that a large influx of new money is driving the price rally.

Additionally, market intelligence data reveals that the total funding rates aggregated by DOGS are at 0.0094%, indicating traders’ bullish sentiment on the continued rise in DOGS’s price.

However, an increase in open interest while the price falls typically reflects a bearish outlook, with traders expecting further declines in the cryptocurrency’s price.

At the time of writing, the token was also trending on Google and social media platforms like X and Telegram.

Meanwhile, analysts’ opinions are divided regarding the future of DOGS. Some express concern that distributing the token through airdrops could lead to immediate selling pressure, casting doubt on its long-term value.

Conversely, others believe in the potential of DOGS, citing strong community support and the broader trend of meme coins. They suggest that despite potential volatility, the token could maintain or even increase its value if the community remains active and supportive.

I repeat this is a meme coin, your trading styles might fail. The dogs community is extremely bullish atm, I don't see it going down soon. This will definitely have a positive impact on the price of $dogs days to come!

Are we gonna experience slight dips ?? YES

Play wise!!

The launch of the Dogs token coincided with the arrest of Telegram founder and CEO Pavel Durov, who created the mascot “Spotty,” now synonymous with the DOGS token.

This development has galvanized the crypto community, leading to the emergence of the #FREEDUROV campaign, which has quickly gained traction across social media platforms. Some market observer suggest that a favorable outcome in Durov’s legal situation could potentially lead to bullish momentum for DOGS.

Risky trade idea but could reward highly if Durov is released by tomorrow.

Not too much to go off, Polymarket books thin but odds have gone up a little recently.

If he is released both $TON and $NOT (maybe even $DOGS, and $REDO) should all go. https://t.co/GcJf2h4gTr pic.twitter.com/WWGEotAD6M
