Crypto analyst Crypto Patel has predicted that the DOGE price can surge to $2, marking a new all-time high (ATH) for Dogecoin. He also highlighted the best accumulation zones for the leading meme coin even as it looks to reclaim the $0.10 psychological level. Dogecoin Chart Points To DOGE Price Rally To $2 In an X post, Crypto Patel stated that the Dogecoin 2-week chart shows that the DOGE price could one day hit $2 and that this is all a patience game. His accompanying chart showed that the leading meme coin could hit this price target during the fifth wave of a 5-wave move higher. The chart also showed that DOGE could reach this level by 2027, potentially marking another crypto bull market. Crypto Patel noted that history doesn’t repeat itself but rhymes, with the same fractal, the same accumulation, and the same disbelief. He added that the best accumulation zone for Dogecoin is between $0.09 and $0.07. The target is a DOGE price rally to $0.5, $1, and $2. Meanwhile, the analyst stated that the stop-loss is the higher-timeframe close below $0.048. Related Reading: Here’s Why The Dogecoin Price Is Under Threat Of Crashing Again In another X post, the analyst doubled down on his Dogecoin prediction, stating that nothing will be able to stop the DOGE price from rallying to between $1 and $2 when the meme coin season begins. His accompanying chart highlighted $0.28 as the first target for the meme coin as it eyes this rally to $2. Crypto analyst CW also predicted that the DOGE price could rally to a new all-time high above $1. This came as he noted that a golden cross for the leading meme coin is imminent and that it is located on the lower line of the rising channel, which is the starting point of a rally. His accompanying chart showed that the meme coin could reach as high as $1.7 this year. Analysis Of The Current Price Action In an X post, crypto analyst Julia noted that the DOGE price on higher timeframes is in a strong oversold condition with convergence, which is a long signal, along with a prolonged support test. She also revealed that on the daily timeframe, it is a classic technical analysis, with a descending triangle, which statistically tends to break to the downside. Related Reading: If Dogecoin Breaks Through This Sell Wall, Expect A Pump The analyst added that the DOGE price is sitting on support with multiple tests, and that the key breakdown level is around $0.09. She noted that there is a solid chance of a move lower and that it will be very interesting to see how this Dogecoin price action develops. However, despite the short signal on the daily, she revealed she is taking a long bias in the long term. At the time of writing, the Dogecoin price is trading at around $0.093, up over 2% in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap. Featured image from Freepik, chart from Tradingview.com

The group extorting Kraken is claiming access to some client account information after two insider incidents involving customer support staff. Kraken’s Extortion Plot: An Insider-Play Yesterday, on a post on the social network X, Nick Percoco, Kraken’s Chief Security Officer (CSO), made public that a criminal group is extorting the crypto exchange with threats to release videos of their systems exposing client data. Kraken Security Update We are currently being extorted by a criminal group threatening to release videos of our internal systems with client data shown if we do not comply with their demands. It’s important to start with the most important points: our systems were never… — Nick Percoco (@c7five) April 13, 2026 Now, according to Bloomberg, the incident is not a classic external hack, but rather an insider‑access problem. A small set of customer details, such as names and physical addresses, may have been exposed after support employees captured photos and videos of internal screens in two separate incidents, one in 2025 and another earlier this year. Related Reading: Hope For Iran Deal Sparks Risk-On Rally, Bitcoin Nears $75K The company has reportedly warned the potentially affected clients to be especially cautious about anyone contacting them. Bloomberg’s source is a “person familiar with the matter who declined to be named because the details haven’t been made public”. Around 2,000 accounts and roughly 0.02% of users were affected. The exposure is limited to basic support data such as names and addresses. Kraken stresses there was no system hack and client funds and trading infrastructure remain secure. Kraken has openly dismissed the extortion attempt, stating that it “will not pay these criminals” and “will not ever negotiate with bad actors”. Percoco’s post clarifies that Kraken is working with federal law‑enforcement agencies across multiple jurisdictions. and that the CEX has gathered enough evidence to help identify those responsible. A Long List Of CEX’s Customer Services Vulnerabilities Although it may sound rather specific, this is not the first time a big CEX is hit with an insider-access problem that vulnerates customers data through the costumer service of the exchange. It’s not even Kraken’s first rodeo with this sort of issue. Back in January, Dark Web Informer reported that a read-only version of Kraken’s internal customer support system was being sold for a negotiable single dollar on a dark web forum. ????????

The attackers allegedly approached customer service agents at the exchanges and offered bribes in return for access to user information. Our sister website Bitcoinist covered the story. This past February, a crypto trader claimed an ex‑Revolut staffer tried to blackmail him, threatening to expose his personal data unless he paid. Revolut claimed the allegation was referred to law‑enforcement authorities. Related Reading: XRP Could Face Big Moves Based On CLARITY Act Outcomes – 3 Key Price Scenarios Market Implications This incident reinforces a key market theme: in the post‑ETF, higher‑regulation cycle, “counterparty risk” on centralized exchanges is shifting from pure asset custody to data security and insider controls. While no immediate outflows or price shocks are visible, repeated data‑exposure headlines can push more flows toward exchanges with stronger transparency reports, on‑chain venues, or self‑custody solutions.

A wave of forced liquidations swept through crypto markets on Tuesday as traders who had bet against Bitcoin and Ether were caught off guard by a sharp price surge tied to hopes of a US-Iran agreement. Related Reading: Dollar’s Shrinking Value Adds Fuel To XRP Bull Case: Finance Expert Around 80% of the $530 million in total liquidations over 24 hours — roughly $425 million — came from leveraged short positions in the two largest cryptocurrencies. Bitcoin touched just under $75,000 on CoinMarketCap, a level not seen in nearly a month, before running into heavy resistance and retreating to about $74,655. Ether made an even bigger move, climbing 7% to reach $2,378 — its highest point since early February. Geopolitical Hopes Fuel The Move The rally came as markets began pricing in the possibility of a negotiated end to weeks of tension between Washington and Tehran. Jeff Mei, chief operating officer at crypto exchange BTSE, said traders believe the two sides are drawing closer to an agreement. Iran’s oil exports are central to its economy, and a US blockade of the Strait of Hormuz shipping lane could put severe pressure on the country to come to the table. “Now, it appears that Iran is frantically looking to broker a deal, and stock and crypto markets are rallying as a response,” Mei said. US President Donald Trump confirmed Monday that a military blockade had begun. He threatened to eliminate any Iranian vessels that come near. Trump also told reporters Iran wants to reach a deal, but his administration will not sign anything that allows Tehran to pursue nuclear weapons. The broader crypto market climbed to a total value of $2.6 trillion — its highest in a month — as the news spread. About 177,000 traders were liquidated across markets over a 24-hour period, according to data from CoinGlass. Not Everyone Is Convinced The rapid price jump did not go unquestioned. Valerius Labs, a market analyst, pushed back on the idea that the move signals a genuine recovery. “This isn’t a breakout,” the firm said. “It’s a short squeeze running into overhead supply. Real buyers show up above the 200-day simple moving average, not 15% below it.” Related Reading: TRUMP Buying Frenzy Builds Ahead Of Mar-A-Lago Power Event Some analysts reported that over $300 billion in crypto short positions were wiped out in just a few hours, adding more than $100 billion to the total market cap in the process. Beyond the short squeeze, other forces may also be at work. Reports indicate that institutional buying through spot crypto exchange-traded funds, along with purchases by centralized exchanges, could be adding fuel to Bitcoin’s climb. Still, the rejection at $75,000 resistance kept the bulls from claiming a clean win. Featured image from Getty Images, chart from TradingView
