DOGE traded lower in line with major coins on Wednesday but for short-term traders, there are indications on the meme coin’s chart that a temporary bottom is in, according to Benzinga’s Melanie Schaffer.

DOGE-bull and Gokhshtein Media CEO David Gokhshtein said Wednesday that DOGE going to $1 “is an easy call.” However, Gokhshtein cautioned his Twitter followers that this was not financial advice.

On Wednesday, DOGE co-creator Billy Markus interacted with McDonald’s Corp MCD on Twitter. McDonald’s asked its Twitter followers to “steal a fry” and Markus said he wanted one. McDonald’s served the fry through a now-familiar meme.

There is growing clamor on Twitter and elsewhere for McDonald’s to accept DOGE after Tesla Inc TSLA began accepting the coin for some merchandise on its website.

Markus asked the DOGE family on Twitter to ensure that the tweet response of McDonald’s is “their highest engagement one.”
