Dogecoin’s next major move may depend less on hype and more on exhaustion. A new technical analysis from crypto analyst Cryptollica proposes that the leading meme coin is now trading at another cycle-bottom zone, and the weekly chart is showing the same kind of RSI washout and long compression that previously appeared before notable Dogecoin rallies. Dogecoin’s Fourth Cycle Bottom Comes Into View Dogecoin has spent the better part of the past year being written off. Sentiment has collapsed, price has compressed, and the crowd that once celebrated the meme coin has gone silent. However, a structure that has correctly identified every major Dogecoin bottom since 2015 is saying this is precisely the moment worth watching. Related Reading: Dogecoin Has Now Entered Oversold Levels That Has Led To Previous Cycle Bottoms This structure analysis in question is built around the idea that Dogecoin’s chart is not only a price chart but also a record of market cycle psychology. According to analyst Cryptollica, the 2015 bottom was a period of disbelief, the 2020 bottom was boredom, and the 2022 bottom was anger. This makes the current setup the fourth cycle bottom, where sentiment appears exhausted while the bullish structure is resetting. The weekly chart shared by the analyst shows Dogecoin moving along a long-term rising support structure, with each major low forming during a period when the weekly RSI dropped into or near oversold territory. Interestingly, the latest RSI reading shown on the chart shows the Dogecoin price bouncing from that RSI in early 2026 and slowly trending upwards. Where The Structure Says The Bottom Is Dogecoin is currently looking like it is registering a bottom around $0.10. However, the most important point in this analysis is that timing the Dogecoin bottom is not confirmed by price alone. Timing the Dogecoin bottom comes from a combination of three things: an oversold weekly RSI, long compression, and price holding around the cycle support zone. Related Reading: Dogecoin Has Only 3 Steps Left Until A Surge Above $1, But A Major Factor Is Missing The first signal is already visible in the chart. Dogecoin’s weekly RSI has fallen into the same region as previous cycle lows. The second signal is compression. Dogecoin has spent months grinding through a wide base around $0.10 instead of moving in a clean upward trend. That may look weak on the surface, but in cycle analysis, extended compression often means sellers are losing control gradually. The third signal is confirmation. In order for the bottom argument to become stronger, Dogecoin would need to hold the current support region at $0.10 and begin forming higher lows on the weekly chart. A move back above the nearest major resistance zones at $0.15 and $0.2 would add more weight to the claim that the cycle bottom has been made. That means $0.10 is now one of the most important areas for the Dogecoin price. If the fourth cycle bottom is confirmed, then the question changes from where Dogecoin is now to how it has rallied from similar structural positions. Cryptollica’s analysis points to a top target above $2. At the time of writing, Dogecoin is trading at $0.104, back to retesting $0.10 from an intraday high of $0.1126.

Ripple’s early push into banking partnerships may be finding new relevance in an unexpected place. One of its long-time collaborators has resurfaced at the center of X Money, the payments initiative tied to X’s broader ambition to become a global financial super app. What once served as a bridge for Ripple’s cross-border settlement network is now part of infrastructure aimed at scaling digital payments to a massive user base. How A Ripple-Linked Bank Became Part Of Elon Musk’s Payment Push A Ripple-linked banking partner from the company’s earliest expansion days has now surfaced inside Elon Musk’s X Money ecosystem. RippleXity revealed on X that Cross River Bank, one of the first US banks to integrate Ripple’s Payment protocol back in 2014 for real-time cross-border transfers between the US and Europe, is now powering part of X Money’s beta rollout through its regulated banking services. Related Reading: Why Ripple’s XRP Is A Better Transaction Choice Compared To SWIFT The same Cross River Bank that reportedly issues the Visa Debit and Flex Cards appears in X Money’s beta program. With X building its payments layer through regulated banking and card infrastructure, this places a Ripple-linked financial institution inside Musk’s expanding digital payments infrastructure. Furthermore, the development has quickly drawn attention across the XRP community because it creates a direct historical overlap between Ripple’s early settlement technology and X Money’s regulated banking framework. While there is still no official confirmation of the XRP integration within X Money, many see Cross River Bank’s role as a significant connection that is difficult to dismiss. Ripple Prime Revenue Surges Despite XRP Trading Below All-Time High Although XRP continues to trade below 50% its all-time high, Ripple’s broader infrastructure business appears to be gaining momentum behind the scenes. A technical analyst known as ChartNerd has noted that institutional adoption across Ripple’s ecosystem is accelerating, with Ripple Prime emerging as one of the company’s strongest growth drivers. Related Reading: Could Ripple XRP Power Cross-Border Payments? Russia’s Early Tests Suggest Potential The platform reportedly tripled its revenue over the past 12 months, processed more than 60 million transactions, and now clears over $3 trillion annually while operating across the United States. Thus, this is just one of a broad infrastructure stack that Ripples is building out during a bear market, and the projects that are being built now will accelerate the next bull run. Ripple and XRP have been building this infrastructure for over a decade, from surviving regulatory battles and securing a major victory against the SEC to expanding XRP Ledger functionality. XRP rules as a commodity, expanding XRPFI and DeFi capabilities, strategic acquisitions, banking partnerships, and strengthening its global infrastructure through XRPL upgrades. With more than 300 institutional clients and increasing global licensing approvals, these fundamentals have never been stronger, and clarity is on the horizon.
