DOGE, SHIB, PEPE and WIF bows into weekend
During periods of extended market gains, meme coins have proven to be among the largest gainers, as the March meme coin frenzy revealed. Consequently, these tokens also suffer sharp declines during market slumps, as their recent price performance reveals.

Dogecoin (DOGE) has witnessed over a 6% decrease on the day, extending its weekly losses to about 16%. DOGE is currently trading around $0.134. If the market decline persists, the $0.115 price level provides support based on on-chain data. According to data from IntoTheBlock, investors historically purchased 46 billion DOGE at an average price of $0.115, the meme coin's largest accumulation price zone. Hence, it could provide the needed cushion to prevent a further decline.
If DOGE begins trending upward, it could face resistance around the $0.16 price level, at which investors bought over 18 billion DOGE tokens.

Meanwhile, the recently launched Solana meme coin Beercoin continued its downward spiral, taking a 15% loss on Friday. BEER is now down 56% from its all-time high of $0.0005704, reached on June 10. The decline follows an X post from crypto analyst @WazzCrypto alleging that the team/insiders cashed out $15 million worth of BEER after its listing on crypto exchange Bybit.
