On-chain metrics also highlight the current sentiment, with market participants choosing to stay on the sidelines amid this downtrend.<\/p>\n<h2>On-chain Metrics Signal Bearish Sentiment Towards Dogecoin and Shiba Inu<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/app.santiment.net\/charts\/XViAKVUn__sCl\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Santiment data<\/a> shows that Dogecoin\u2019s Price Daily Active Addresses (DAA) divergence has dropped to -49%, signaling weak demand in the <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/dogecoin-next-cycle-house-of-doge-partnership-opens-new-international-doors\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener \">meme coin\u2019s ecosystem<\/a> even as price continues to drop. This figure marks a two-month low for DOGE and comes amid its recent drop below the psychological $0.10 level.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Furthermore, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/analysis\/doge\/dogecoin-doge-dips-into-red-0-10\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Daily Active Addresses<\/a> on the Dogecoin network continue to waver. Data from Santiment shows that the DAA on the network dropped from as high as 87,727 on January 31 to as low as 38,696 on February 28. The total Active addresses over the last seven days are below 300,000, which also signals the low demand for the meme coin at the moment.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-667326\" src=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Dogecoin-chart-from-Santiment.png?w=512&amp;resize=512%2C173\" alt=\"Dogecoin\" width=\"512\" height=\"173\"><\/p>\n<p>Like Dogecoin, Shiba Inu is also facing weaker demand amid the recent price downtrend. Santiment data shows that the Price DAA Divergence has dropped to -29%, the lowest level this year. This notably coincides with <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/shiba-inu-dev-reveals-main-focus\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener \">SHIB\u2019s decline<\/a> to its lowest level this year, with the meme coin now down 25% year-to-date (YTD).\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/shiba-inu-shibarium-new-high\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener \">Shiba Inu\u2019s Daily Active Addresses<\/a> have also remained flat since the start of the year, indicating that investors are opting against investing in the second-largest meme coin by market cap. For context, SHIB\u2019s DAA on March 1 was just 1,984, down from the multi-month high of 377,000 recorded in October last year. Since the start of this year, the Daily Active Addresses have remained below 10,000.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>It is worth noting that Dogecoin and Shiba Inu remain at risk of further declines as tensions between the <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/bitcoin-dumps-on-geopolitical-shock-again-history-shows-how-this-might-play-out\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener \">U.S. and Iran<\/a> escalate. Further declines in these meme coins are likely to lead to a drop in these on-chain metrics as market participants stay on the sidelines amid this uncertainty.\u00a0<\/p>\n<h2>Derivatives Metrics In The Red As Traders Sit On The Sidelines<\/h2>\n<p>Dogecoin and Shiba Inu\u2019s derivatives metrics are also in the red as crypto traders sit on the sidelines amid the current market sell-off. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.coinglass.com\/currencies\/DOGE\/futures\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">CoinGlass data<\/a> shows that DOGE\u2019s derivatives trading volume is down by over 34% down to $2.36 billion. <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/dogecoin-xrp-open-interest-crash\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener \">Open interest is down<\/a> over 9%, dropping to $907 million, while options trading volume has crashed 31%. The long\/short ratio is below 1, signaling that most traders are shorting DOGE at the moment.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Similarly, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/shiba-inu\/shiba-inu-scores-us-regulated-derivatives-entry-via-coinbase\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Shiba Inu\u2019s derivative metrics<\/a> signal that sellers are currently dominating the market, as bulls remain cautious amid market uncertainty. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.coinglass.com\/currencies\/SHIB\/futures\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">CoinGlass data<\/a> shows that SHIB\u2019s derivative trading volume has crashed 28%, down to $132 million, while open interest is down to $54 million.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tradingview.com\/x\/UHMPfaZf\/\" alt=\"Dogecoin\" width=\"2108\" height=\"1636\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dogecoin and Shiba Inu are currently facing bearish sentiment due to the crypto market downtrend.
