Dogecoin Creator Mocks Gold FOMO as DOGE Trades Around $0.12 on January 27, 2026
On January 27, 2026, Dogecoin's co-creator Billy Markus ridiculed the rush into record-breaking gold and silver prices, framing it as classic FOMO while sharing memes. As precious metals saw sharp volatility, DOGE held in the $0.1183–$0.128 range with roughly $891.57 million in daily spot volume and $1.69 billion in futures trading. Leveraged traders favored upside, with positive funding rates and a long-short ratio above 2.5 on Binance despite Markus distancing himself from price predictions.
