The memecoin, which was launched by the President on Friday, saw its price plummet nearly 26% over the past 24 hours.
The launch of an official memecoin tied to the U.S. President himself brought a tsunami of attention into the industry.
The Dogecoin price is at a critical juncture as a crypto analyst has pinpointed key price levels that could dictate its next significant move upwards. With the number one meme coin currently trading above $0.34, the analyst predicts a breakout to $1.4 if bullish conditions stay favorable and a price crash to new lows if Dogecoin fails to reach a critical level. Dogecoin Price: Will It Pump Or Crash? According to a TradingView crypto analyst known as ‘Mindbloome-Trading,’ the Dogecoin price is on the verge of an exponential pump that will push its value above the coveted $1 mark. The crypto expert presented a video chart analysis, highlighting $0.46 as a crucial resistance level for Dogecoin. This price point aligns with the 0.382 Fibonacci level, which is often a significant barrier in technical analysis. Related Reading: Machine Learning Algorithm Predicts Dogecoin Price From January To December 2025 The TradingView market expert has suggested that if Dogecoin surpasses the $0.46 resistance level, it could ignite a rally that propels the meme coin to its next bullish target at $1.4. Such a move would likely be driven by increased demand and buying pressure from investors. Conversely, the analyst shared a bearish outlook for Dogecoin. He indicated that if Dogecoin fails to maintain the support level at $0.3, the meme coin could be at risk of a severe decline. He predicts a DOGE price crash to a lower support level at $0.23, achieving new price lows not seen since 2024. Falling back to the $0.23 level could send bearish signals to the market, potentially leading to increased selling pressure and more declines. The analyst has revealed that Dogecoin is currently in a support phase, and its next price movements could determine the direction of its future value. While the TradingView crypto expert shares his bullish and bearish price forecast for Dogecoin, his detailed video chart shows Dogecoin’s price movements from 2020 to 2024, highlighting key peaks and troughs that indicate past volatility. The chart also pinpoints key support and resistance zones using Fibonacci extension and retracement levels to predict the meme coin’s next price level. What’s Driving Dogecoin’s Current Trend? The Dogecoin price is currently experiencing severe downside momentum despite multiple bullish forecasts suggesting an imminent rally. The major factors driving Dogecoin’s bullish sentiment in the crypto market are the recent inauguration of Donald Trump as the new President of the United States (US) and the influence of SpaceX and Tesla CEO Elon Musk, who has established the new Department of Government Efficiency (D.O.G.E) unit.

Nevertheless, analysts on the popular X social media platform remain bullish, forecasting significant price increases in the future. One notable prediction by crypto analyst and Dogecoin supporter David Butler suggests that the popular meme coin could rally by 100X to reach $34. While this projection may seem rather ambitious, the analyst is confident that a price increase to this level is inevitable. Featured image from Unsplash, chart from Tradingview.com
The following article is adapted from The Block’s newsletter, The Daily, which comes out on weekday afternoons.
In a move that dashed high-flying expectations, US President Donald J. Trump ended his first day in office without issuing any crypto-related executive orders or referencing the much-touted Strategic Bitcoin Reserve he had teased during the Bitcoin 2024 conference in Nashville. Bitcoin’s price, which had surged to nearly $110,000 on hopes of a landmark announcement, retreated swiftly once it became clear the inauguration address would offer no explicit nod to digital assets. What Next For The Bitcoin Price? Now, with BTC hovering in what analysts describe as no-man’s land, the market looks to the White House for any indication that Trump’s earlier pro-Bitcoin rhetoric might translate into action. Crypto analyst CRG (@MacroCRG) encapsulated the uneasy sentiment on X , claiming that “crypto feeling a bit directionless” could quickly change if Trump simply mentions Bitcoin. Related Reading: Analyst Says Bitcoin Price Could Retest Substantially Below $100,000 If This Level Fails CRG argued, “but all its gonna take is 1 mention from Trump and it sends IMO. Trump’s team bought 9 figs of crypto yday, won’t be long until they start blasting hopium.” Some observers maintain that Bitcoin’s overarching technical indicators remain favorable. Markus Thielen, a researcher at Matrixport, commented on X that “since mid-November, Bitcoin has been trading within a narrowing wedge,” stifled by conflicting signals—ranging from higher inflation data to hopes of a supportive White House. Related Reading: 1 Million Bitcoin Pulled From Exchanges In The Past 3 Years: What It Means For The BTC Market According to Thielen, Trump’s inauguration served as a catalyst for Bitcoin to break out of that wedge, but whether this breakout can hold depends on BTC maintaining support around the upper boundary. “Bitcoin is now retesting the breakout level, which corresponds to the upper boundary of the wedge. If Bitcoin holds above this key support, the short-term outlook remains highly bullish, with the breakout signaling renewed upward momentum,” Thielen writes. Renowned analyst Rekt Capital (@rektcapital) pointed out on X that Bitcoin managed to retest key levels, notably at $101,000. While the market saw a harsh rejection from its range high, Rekt Capital emphasizes that this retest of both the “red diagonal” and the “black Range Low” is a strong sign that BTC might consolidate in the $101,000-$106,000 corridor before potentially marching higher again. Meanwhile, trader Crypto Chase (@Crypto_Chase) hinted at a willingness to go long if Bitcoin dips to around $99,500. He noted: “I’d take a long from 99.5K~ if offered. I think gray box needs to hold for local bullishness and sweeping all the Trump leadup / news PA makes sense. I’d also accept a sweep of the 97K low, but that’s farthest it should go. Any good amount of time spent past 96-97K and my plan / read is likely off. Inval low 90’s, aiming for new ATH’s. 3R~ trade.” Despite Wednesday’s disappointment, many believe the president’s pro-Bitcoin stance remains intact. David Bailey, CEO of BTC Inc. and a key figure in Trump’s shift toward a more Bitcoin and crypto-friendly position, took to X today, revealing: “Got confirmation tonight that our EOs are among the first 200. I have no idea what made it in, but good news cometh.” Bailey also stated these include “EOs related to Bitcoin or crypto,” leaving open the possibility of a sudden policy bombshell. Should such an order materialize, markets could quickly pivot back into bullish territory. For now, however, traders and investors remain in limbo, awaiting that elusive official statement or executive order—from the White House that might reignite Bitcoin’s momentum. At press time, BTC traded at $103,182. Featured image created with DALL.E, chart from TradingView.com
Dogecoin enthusiast Elon Musk is now reportedly in sole charge of the government streamlining and cost saving unit.
As the new crypto-friendly administration takes office, crypto investors expect a likely volatile market. However, some analyst shared their bullish predictions as Bitcoin (BTC) hit its latest all-time high (ATH) of $109,000. Related Reading: $24 XRP Prediction: Bitcoin Maxi Calls It Risky But Possible Bitcoin Hits New ATH On Inauguration Day Last week, Bitcoin surged past the $100,000 barrier for the first time in over ten days amid the bullish expectations of January 20. The flagship crypto continued consolidating above this key level over the weekend, fueled by US President Donald Trump’s latest crypto moves. On Friday, the incoming US President surprised the crypto industry by launching his official TRUMP memecoin. The token saw a massive surge, hitting a $75 all-time high (ATH) and a market capitalization of $15 billion but facing significant backlash from the crypto community. As the token eclipsed the market, Bitcoin turned the key $102,000 resistance level as a support zone, propelling the price to a one-month high of $106,000. However, the market saw a 6% correction on Sunday afternoon after the then-incoming First Lady launched her memecoin, MELANIA. BTC dropped below the $100,000 mark before quickly recovering, closing the week near the recently reclaimed level. Ahead of Trump’s inauguration, Bitcoin’s price jumped 8.5% to its new all-time high of $109,588. Daan Crypto Trades noted BTC’s good start to the week after it “opened up with a small CME gap today but closed that straight away and went straight to new all-time highs,” adding that it will be an interesting week. Daan also signaled that today would likely be a “very volatile day in both directions” for the market but advised investors to “focus on what you expect for Q1 and not the next day.” BTC Price To Continue Soaring? Crypto analyst Altcoin Sherpa suggested that BTC’s price could see short-term volatility depending on Trump’s comments during his Inauguration speech. “If a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve is announced, I think BTC puts in a god candle, and everything sends,” he stated, adding that a lack of mention could start a momentary pullback. Despite the potential short-term shakeouts, some analysts highlighted that Bitcoin is entering a new price discovery phase. Rekt Capital stated, “History suggests this first Price Discovery Correction is now over.” According to the analyst, the December retrace was part of BTC’s “post-halving Parabolic Upside Phase.” Bitcoin enters a parabolic period that lasts around 300 days, each cycle after every Halving event, with the first price correction historically beginning between Weeks 6 and 8 of each parabolic phase. Related Reading: Solana Bulls Counter Bearish Pressure To Keep Price Above $240 After the recent price action, the analyst announced the second Price Discovery Uptrend lies ahead. He explained that “Bitcoin is now trying to breakout from its $101k-$106k range Daily Close above the $106k Range High resistance followed by a post-breakout retest would confirm the breakout and bring Bitcoin one step closer to additional Price Discovery.” Analyst Crypto Jelle highlighted BTC’s multi-year cup and handle pattern, which “looks like Bitcoin wants to get it over with.” The analyst suggested that the flagship crypto won’t “be waiting much longer,” adding that the long-term target remains $140,000. As of this writing, Bitcoin trades at $104,564, a 1% drop in the daily timeframe. Featured Image from Unsplash.com, Chart from TradingView.com

Dogecoin traders have lost over $65 million in 24 hours amid the largest liquidation event in this year so far. This development came as the DOGE price crashed violently after climbing to as high as $0.43 on Sunday. Dogecoin Traders Lose Over $60 Million In 24 Hours Coinglass data shows that Dogecoin traders have lost over $65 million in the last 24 hours. Traders who went long on DOGE suffered the most, with $54.81 million in long positions liquidated during this period. Short traders accounted for the remaining loss, with $7.90 in short positions liquidated. Related Reading: Dogecoin ‘Power Of 3’ Pattern Enters Distribution Phase: Massive Bull Run Incoming? These short liquidations likely occurred earlier on Sunday, when the Dogecoin price reclaimed the $0.40 support level and rebounded to as high as $0.43. However, the price action took a drastic turn later in the day, crashing from the intra-day high of around $0.43 to as low as $0.35, leading to the flush in long positions. Dogecoin traders weren’t the only ones who suffered significant losses. Other crypto traders lost substantial sums as the crypto market witnessed its largest liquidation event this year, with over $1 billion liquidated in the last 24 hours, according to Coinglass data. Long traders took the most hit, with $903.59 million in long positions liquidated. Meanwhile, $260 million in short positions were liquidated. These liquidations occurred as the Bitcoin price dropped from as high as $106,000 to $100,000, dragging other coins, including Dogecoin, along with it. This price drop across the board occurred mainly due to the US First Lady Melania Trump’s launch of her meme coin, ‘MELANIA,’ which drained liquidity from other coins in the market. Dogecoin traders were also bound to take a significant hit considering DOGE’s strong price correlation with BTC. As such, a Dogecoin price crash was inevitable as the flagship crypto nosedived to as low as $100,000. The Cycle Is Not Over Crypto analyst Kevin Capital provided optimism for Dogecoin traders, stating that the cycle is not over. The analyst also reminded those upset at Donald Trump and his team about the ‘TRUMP’ and ‘MELANIA’ meme coins that Dogecoin could easily have remained at $0.11 if the incoming president had not won the elections instead of Kamala Harris. Related Reading: Crypto Analyst Predicts When Dogecoin Price Will Hit $3 This Cycle As such, he urged Dogecoin investors and traders to be grateful for how far DOGE has come since November 5th, 2024, when Trump won the elections. Indeed, Trump’s victory was the primary catalyst for Dogecoin’s gains last year. The foremost meme coin had maintained a tepid price action for most of last year until Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency (D.O.G.E), coined from DOGE, looked likely to come to life as Trump led the polls. At the time of writing, the Dogecoin price is trading at around $0.36, down over 8% in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap.

Donald Trump’s pro-crypto stance has cooked up a storm in the crypto market. Ever since he won the presidential election, the market has been raging like a wild bull. Bitcoin is soaring towards $110K as rumors of a strategic Bitcoin reserve are heating up. From what we gather, at least eight US states have proposed maintaining a Bitcoin reserve: Texas, Pennsylvania, Ohio, New Hampshire, North Dakota, Wyoming, Massachusetts, and Oklahoma. The idea stems from Trump’s crypto-friendly approach and promises to make the US the ‘crypto capital of the world.’ At the center of the ‘Bitcoin reserve’ idea is Senator Cynthia Lummis, a Wyoming Republican. Lummis believes a Bitcoin reserve can ‘supercharge the US dollar’s position’ and make the US a leader in the crypto space. The idea is already in motion with the new ‘Bitcoin Act,’ which empowers the US Department of Treasury to hold a decentralized network of secure Bitcoin vaults. If the idea does go through, the crypto market is all set to see another boom. Of course, you would not want to miss out on the upcoming rally. Although Bitcoin itself can be a smart investment choice, here are six meme coins that can potentially make you a millionaire in 2025. 1. Wall Street Pepe ($WEPE) – Overall Best Meme Coin for First-Time Investors Wall Street Pepe ($WEPE) aims to do the unthinkable, which is to abolish the unfair dominance of crypto whales. It plans to do so by creating a ‘Frog Army’ of retail crypto traders and investors and providing them with critical and unique market insights, alpha trading calls and signals, and trading strategies. $WEPE’s unique mission has evidently resonated with the masses, seeing as its presale has grown into one of the hottest crypto presales in 2025. With over $53M in presale funding so far, Wall Street Pepe has managed to raise an average of 1M+ every single day. What’s more, it shows no signs of slowing down. The final countdown has started, and the presale is set to come to an end in 25 days. This means that the current price of $0.0003665 per $WEPE offers the best entry point for early investors. If you’re interested in this potential 100x token, check out our guide on how to buy $WEPE for more information. 2. Solaxy ($SOLX) – Solana’s Layer-2 Solution Breathes New Life Into the Network Solaxy ($SOLX) is the first-ever Layer-2 solution on the Solana network, offering a wealth of benefits to improve its overall quality. It promises to eliminate network downtime and bottlenecks, ensure that transactions will be executed even when there’s a lot of traffic, and enable effortless scaling. In addition to being tailor-made for high-volume trading, Solaxy is also a token that operates equally well on both Ethereum and Solana, which is set to amplify its appeal. Speaking of $SOLX’s appeal, it’s been on full display ever since its presale launched on December 12, 2024. It has so far raised over $12.4M, and with Solana ETFs set to launch in the near future, it’s been touted as the next multi-bagger token by experts and retailers alike. If you want to join the bandwagon, head over to Solaxy’s official website and grab $SOLX tokens for just $0.001608 each. Early adopters can also benefit from Solaxy’s 304% staking rewards. 3. Mind of Pepe ($MIND) – Cutting-Edge AI Crypto Project MIND of Pepe ($MIND) borrows the OG Pepe meme’s personality, but under the hood, it’s every bit as unique as a human being’s fingerprints. It’s an AI agent that scours online platforms like X, imbibes what people are saying, and uses hive-mind analysis to generate potentially profitable crypto investment ideas. MIND of Pepe’s presale has been extremely successful, having already raised over $2.6M so far. Currently available at a price of $0.0031635 per token, $MIND is a meme coin that may 100x in the near future. Another massive benefit of being an early $MIND investor is its mind-boggling 772% staking rewards, which will only decrease as time passes, so hurry up! 4. OFFICIAL TRUMP ($TRUMP) – Official Hype Coin of the President of the United States Donald Trump’s own crypto, $TRUMP, has been breathing fire ever since its launch just a couple of days ago. Soon after Trump launched the coin on TruthSocial, it skyrocketed over 12,000% overnight. On Sunday, the Solana-hosted meme coin reached a market cap of $9.36B, with the price hovering around $46. Within the next few hours, the price climbed further to reach a massive market cap of $15B. This made $TRUMP the 18th biggest cryptocurrency at the time. The current market cap sits at around $9.75B at a price of $48.8. Inspired by the appointment of the pro-crypto Trump as POTUS, the crypto market was already in a frenzy, and $TRUMP, which is admittedly more hype than logic, is benefitting from positive market sentiment, offering interested investors a risky but potentially lucrative opportunity. Right now, only 20% of the total supply has been made available for trading. The remaining 80% of the reserves are held by CIC Digital LLC (Trump’s business affiliate) and Fight Fight Fight LLC. 5. Official Melania Meme ($MELANIA) – Meme Coin of the First Lady of the US Following the footsteps of Donald Trump, Melania Trump, the First Lady of the US, also launched her own meme coin, $MELANIA. Like $TRUMP, $MELANIA is also hosted on the Solana blockchain. Soon after launch, the coin started trading around $11.22 with a market cap of $2.15B. Currently, the token is hovering around $7.7, having seen a sharp decline from its highs. So, should you buy $TRUMP or $MELANIA? Although the sample size is small as of now, $TRUMP has had a way better response from crypto enthusiasts. In comparison, $MELANIA has had a sedate start, with no real surge in value. Also, $TRUMP is a direct reflection of Trump’s popularity and policy making. The prices are expected to surge once Trump introduces crypto-friendly legislation. Plus, $TRUMP’s price seemed to have cooled down from the initial frenzy, meaning it may be a good entry point for long-term investors. 6. XRP ($XRP) – Meme Coin with the Potential to Outperform Ethereum Ever since the US elections in November, Ripple’s $XRP has been in a massive rally upward, increasing almost 500% – from $0.5444 to $3.2733. With XRP’s price holding strong, experts believe it can soon surpass Ethereum in valuation. Even on the technical front, $XRP seems to have broken out of a bullish flag pattern, which is a strong indication of a continuing uptrend. Technical analysts believe the coin’s price can peak in the $20s. Plus, there has been a significant 81% increase in ‘whale activity’ in $XRP during the last week. Although it can’t be confirmed if this activity is related to buying or selling, there are reasons to believe whales are building a long position in the coin. The $XRP buzz is further fueled by Ripple’s strategic moves. CEO Brad Garlinghouse revealed that Ripple is in talks to accelerate deal-making and work toward tokenization in association with several startups. The company plans to acquire crypto custody forms and stablecoin businesses to gain an edge in the crypto market. All these suggest that $XRP can be a sound investment choice. Verdict The above-mentioned meme coins offer some of the most lucrative investment opportunities in 2025. However, we urge you not to consider our opinions as financial advice. Kindly do your own research (DYOR) and only invest an amount you’re comfortable losing.
