Dogecoin (Doge), the largest meme-coin cryptocurrency, has overtaken Cardano ADA to become the eighth-largest cryptocurrency by market cap. According to newly compiled data, DOGE boasts a new market cap of approximately $28 billion, surpassing that of Cardano at $27.3 billion.
In a post on X, Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson gave props to the leading dog-themed currency, joking that a new wave of cryptocurrency is upon us. “That moment Doge flips Cardano, it’s officially alt-season kids,” his post reads. Many traders are also dubbing the new wave of altcoins as “alt-season,” due to their recent surge.
