Meme Coin Bloodbath: Can DOGE and SHIB Crash to $0 in 2026? 4 AIs Make Predictions

Meme Coin Bloodbath: Can <a href="https://investment-policy.com/doge-usd/">DOGE</a> and <a href="https://investment-policy.com/shib-usd/">SHIB</a> Crash to $0 in 2026? 4 AIs Make Predictions

As a crypto investor, I’ve definitely felt the pain of the recent market crash, especially in meme coins. Their total value has dropped below $40 billion, which is a pretty significant hit. It just shows how risky these coins can be when the market turns down.

We asked four leading AI chatbots if the current economic difficulties will persist, and specifically if cryptocurrencies Dogecoin (DOGE) and Shiba Inu (SHIB) are at risk of falling to a value of zero in the coming months.

The Chances are Small

As a crypto investor, I’ve been reading a lot about the risks, and ChatGPT pointed out something interesting – even the biggest meme coins *could* theoretically go to zero. They stressed it’s highly unlikely, but it’s still a possibility to keep in mind.

The tokens are actively traded on many major exchanges and have a large number of owners, a situation that’s not expected to change by 2026. However, ChatGPT predicts that, based on the current market, a significant price drop could happen in the near future.

DOGE and SHIB are popular cryptocurrencies held by millions of people, many of whom aren’t planning to sell even if prices drop. This widespread ownership makes it less likely that demand will suddenly disappear. Even when the market is down for a long time, some owners continue to buy, sell, or hold these coins, and some even participate in staking when available.

X’s chatbot, Grok, suggests that in a worst-case scenario, cryptocurrencies like DOGE and SHIB could potentially fall to zero. However, it also predicts that if Bitcoin recovers and interest picks up again, these two coins might become stable by late 2026.

“DOGE might hover around $0.10–$0.15, and SHIB could aim to “delete a zero” (reach $0.00001+) with burns and upgrades,” it forecasted.

Not a Chance at All

According to Google’s Gemini, a cryptocurrency would only reach a value of zero if nobody was buying it and it was removed from all major cryptocurrency exchanges. Gemini believes this is a rare occurrence, pointing to several factors that make it unlikely.

Dogecoin has gained considerable traction in recent years, and it’s even available through approved exchange-traded funds (ETFs) in the United States. Meanwhile, Shiba Inu has grown into a multifaceted platform supported by a large and passionate community. Notably, Dogecoin is a favorite cryptocurrency of Elon Musk.

According to Perplexity, some of the smaller, lesser-known meme coins could lose all their value by 2026, but popular coins like Dogecoin and Shiba Inu are expected to fare better. Perplexity suggests Dogecoin could potentially rise to $0.50 or even $1 if interest in it increases again. However, it predicts a more modest gain of up to 20% for Shiba Inu this year.
