DOGE Price History: Key Milestones
Dogecoin was created in December 2013 by software engineers Billy Markus and Jackson Palmer as a lighthearted take on cryptocurrency. Initially worth fractions of a cent, DOGE first gained attention in early 2014. The coin remained below $0.01 for most of its history until 2021, when a wave of social media-driven speculation pushed it from $0.005 in January to an all-time high of $0.7316 in May 2021.
2021–2026 Price Journey
After the May 2021 peak, Dogecoin declined significantly through 2022 and 2023 alongside the broader crypto bear market. In early 2025, DOGE briefly surged back to $0.434 amid renewed speculative interest. However, by March 2026, the price has declined to approximately $0.095–$0.107, approximately 86% below the all-time high. The Dogecoin Foundation's launch of a 21Shares DOGE ETF (ticker: TDOG) on NASDAQ in January 2026 marked a significant institutional milestone.
