On February 13, 2025, Altcoin Gordon, a notable figure in the cryptocurrency community, posted a tweet alluding to strategies to influence the prices of the same parts (Gordon, 2025). This event sparked a notable increase in the volume of exchanges and the volatility of prices on several parts of memes. More specifically, Dogecoin (DOGE) experienced a price increase of $ 0.08 to $ 0.09 in the first hour of publication of the tweet at 10:00 am (CoinmarketCap, 2025). Likewise, Shiba Inu (SCH) experienced an increase of 15% from 0.00000010 to $ 0.0000115 during the same period (Coingecko, 2025). The negotiation volume for DOGE increased to 2.5 billion DOGE, against an average of 1.8 billion DOGE compared to the previous week (Crypto, 2025). For SHIB, the volume has reached 500 billion shibs, a significant leap compared to the average of 350 billion shib (cryptocurrency, 2025). These movements have been largely motivated by the activity of retail investors, as indicated by a wave of small transactions which count on the respective block chains (Glassnode, 2025).
The commercial implications of the Altcoin Gordon tweet were immediate and pronounced. Increased volatility has presented both opportunities and risks for merchants. For example, the DOGE / BTC trading pair experienced a 10% increase in the negotiation volume, reaching 150,000 BTC negotiated in the first hour after the tweet (Binance, 2025). This suggests an important interest in the DOGE trade against Bitcoin. In addition, the Shib / ETH pair has experienced a similar trend, the negotiation volume increasing by 8% to 100,000 ETH (Kraken, 2025). Market feeling indicators such as the Crypto Fear & Greed index increased from 50 to 62, indicating evolution towards greed among investors (alternative.me, 2025). This change could be attributed to the threshing media generated by the Tweet of Altcoin Gordon. In addition, the metrics on the chain have shown a 20% increase in active addresses for Doge and Shib, suggesting an increased network activity (Santiment, 2025). Traders who seek to capitalize on these movements should closely monitor these indicators and adjust their strategies accordingly.
The technical indicators have provided additional information on the reaction of the market to the Tweet of Altcoin Gordon. The relative resistance index (RSI) for DOGE increased from 60 to 72 during the first hour, indicating over -rascal conditions (tradingView, 2025). For SHIB, the RSI went from 55 to 68, also suggesting a potential territory on purchase (tradingView, 2025). The divergence of Mobile Average Convergence (MacD) for the two active ingredients showed a Haussier crossing, the MacD line from Doge crossing the signal line at 10:15 a.m. and Shib at 10:20 a.m. (TradingView, 2025). The negotiation volumes against the two assets remained high throughout the day, Doge with an average of 2.2 billion DOGE exchanged and SHIB on average 450 billion negotiated priests (cryptocurrency, 2025). These technical signals, combined with volume data, suggest a short -term upward trend caused by the influence of social media from the Tweet of Altcoin Gordon.
In the context of news related to AI, although there have been no direct developments on AI linked to the Tweet of Altcoin Gordon, the wider impact on the tokens linked to AI can be observed. For example, tokens like singularitynet (Agix) and Fetch.ai (FET) experienced minor increases of 2% and 1.5% respectively, following the general change in the feeling of the market (CoinmarketCap, 2025). However, these movements were not directly correlated with the rise of the room even, but rather the reflection of the global feeling of the market influenced by the activity of social media. The correlation between the main cryptographic active ingredients like Bitcoin and Ethereum with the tokens has remained stable, the price of bitcoin increasing by 0.5% and Ethereum by 0.7% over the same period (Coingecko, 2025). This indicates that if AI tokens have not seen significant movements, the broader dynamics of the market influenced by social media can always have a training effect on various sectors of the cryptography market. Merchants interested in the AI / Crypto crossover could find opportunities to monitor these subtle changes and to capitalize on the potential IA market movements.
