Dogecoin’s near-term uptrend may be running on fumes, with crypto analyst Kevin (Kev Capital TA) warning that a breakdown is already in motion and that the memecoin’s bull case now hinges on a thin band of support around $0.20. In a late-August 25 livestream, Kevin argued that DOGE’s structure has deteriorated into a classic post-rally trap while its fate remains tethered to Bitcoin’s next move. Dogecoin Bulls Cornered “This chart’s not really in control of its own destiny. It’s going to follow what Bitcoin and ETH do, mainly Bitcoin,” he said, adding that the setup turning heads on his screen was a “symmetrical triangle pattern… which is not bullish after an up move. It’s bearish. It’s typically [going to] break down,” a process he said appeared to be underway during the stream. The levels, in his view, are now brutally simple. On the top side, the “major level… remains the same,” with the golden-pocket resistance still parked at $0.285–$0.261. That band has capped impulse attempts since Q1 and, alongside higher Fibonacci checkpoints—0.703 at ~$0.329 and 0.786 at ~$0.413—defines the ceiling that bulls have repeatedly failed to clear with authority. Related Reading: Dogecoin Stalls Near $0.22: Analysts Say a Major Breakout Pattern Could Be Forming On the downside, Kevin marked $0.195–$0.189 as “a major support zone,” aligning the 0.5 Fib around ~$0.189 with DOGE’s trend MAs. “You’re even in support right now via the 100 EMA and daily 200 EMA,” he noted, while pointing to the 200-day SMA near ~$0.198 and a rising channel that has seen “multiple taps to the high and the low.” Lose that $0.19–$0.20 cluster, he warned, and the path of least resistance shifts quickly lower: “If Dogecoin loses that, very likely [it’s] coming back down to the trend line… anywhere from 16 cents,” with deeper legacy supports around $0.147, $0.137, and “the $0.14–$0.127 zone” described as the “big big support.” In other words, the “crash” risk Kevin is flagging is less about sensational downside targets and more about the mechanical nature of DOGE’s structure if $0.19 gives way: a vacuum to the channel base near $0.16 first, then prior demand shelves if momentum accelerates. Related Reading: Dogecoin About To Explode? On-Chain Models Hint At A Massive Rally Context matters, and Kevin stressed that DOGE beta is overwhelmingly macro-driven inside crypto. When Bitcoin rallies while Bitcoin dominance falls, DOGE can rip—“Dogecoin had a phenomenal day” on a recent Friday, he said, citing a roughly 11–12% surge when BTC rose ~3.5% and dominance slid more than 0.7%. But “if ETH is outperforming and it’s in ETH season, you’re not going to get massive Dogecoin performance,” he cautioned, explaining much of DOGE’s relative lethargy while Ethereum-linked majors and ETH-beta names have led flows for months. Kevin’s tactical roadmap is therefore stark. First, respect the $0.195–$0.189 shelf as the line between a controlled pullback and a disorderly trendline test. Second, accept that the upside will likely remain capped beneath $0.285–$0.261 until Bitcoin resolves higher and dominance sustainably bleeds. Third, avoid the classic liquidity trap of buying emotional spikes into resistance. “Don’t buy altcoins at the highs,” he said. “Allocate into ones that are at major support,” and do it in small, risk-aware increments rather than overextending into weakness. The analyst’s bottom line for Dogecoin is blunt and time-sensitive. The post-rally triangle has already begun to fracture; the $0.19–$0.20 belt is “the lifeline.” Hold it and DOGE can stabilize inside its rising channel while it waits for a friendlier Bitcoin-led tape. Lose it, and “a crash” in Kevin’s definition—an accelerated move toward ~$0.16 and, if pressure persists, the mid-teens support stack—is the next chapter. At press time, DOGE traded at $0.21.

Bitcoin (BTC) tumbled below the critical $110,000 mark on Tuesday after a whale offloaded 24,000 BTC worth approximately $2.7 billion. Related Reading: REX Financial CEO Picks Solana Over Ethereum: Here’s Why The massive sell order sparked a sharp market reaction, wiping out $205 billion from crypto market capitalization and triggering over $930 million in liquidations across leveraged positions. This sudden downturn pushed BTC to its lowest levels in nearly two months, with intraday lows near $109,000. Analysts warn the correction could extend further, as technical patterns point to a possible continuation of the Elliott Wave C move toward $105,000. Technical Signals: $105K or $108K in Play Market analysts project that Bitcoin’s rejection at $117,000 over the weekend set the stage for this decline. According to Elliott Wave Theory, Wave C often mirrors Wave A in length, making the $105,000 zone a prime target. This area also coincides with Bitcoin’s Point of Control since April and the anchored VWAP support line, adding weight to the bearish case. However, a strong counter-argument exists. The $107,000–$108,000 range, representing the 61.8% Fibonacci retracement of the June-to-August rally, holds significant buying interest. Data from Bookmap shows clustered orders at this level, suggesting it could act as a reversal point if buyers step in aggressively. Invalidation Levels and Market Outlook Despite the bearish tone, analysts caution that a Bitcoin daily close above $110,000 could flip sentiment. Such a move would indicate a possible liquidity grab rather than a full-blown Wave C continuation. A stronger confirmation would come if Bitcoin reclaims $112,000, signaling the downside break was corrective, not impulsive. For now, traders are advised to watch the $108,000 support zone closely. A breakdown could accelerate selling pressure toward $105,000, while a decisive bounce might restore short-term momentum. BTC's price trends to the downside on the daily chart. Source: BTCUSD on Tradingview What to Expect Next for Bitcoin Price Bitcoin’s sharp sell-off gives a clear picture of the delicate balance between whale activity, technical structures, and macroeconomic uncertainty. In the near term, analysts caution that downside risks remain elevated, with $108,000 emerging as the key support level. A failure to hold this zone could pave the way for a deeper correction toward $105,000. Related Reading: Is $105,000 The Bitcoin Bull Run Killer Or Just Noise?

Bitcoin is facing a pivotal moment as it consolidates just above the $110K level after slipping below the $112K support yesterday. Bulls are attempting to hold this level to avoid further downside and to spark a recovery rally. However, many analysts remain cautious, pointing out that momentum has weakened since Bitcoin’s all-time high just over a week ago, with the market now retracing more than 10%. Related Reading: Bitcoin CEX Netflows Still Green Despite Large Sellers Rotating To Ethereum Top analyst Axel Adler shared critical insights, highlighting that the nearest strong support lies within the $100K–$107K range. This zone is particularly important as it represents the confluence of two major indicators: the Short-Term Holder (STH) Realized Price and the 200-day simple moving average (SMA). Historically, these overlapping metrics have acted as strong levels of defense during prior bull cycles, helping Bitcoin maintain its long-term uptrend. If Bitcoin loses the $110K level decisively, a test of this deeper support band becomes likely. At the same time, sentiment across the market suggests a delicate balance: while fundamentals such as institutional adoption remain strong, short-term traders are increasingly wary of another correction. The coming days will determine whether Bitcoin can defend its structure or risk a broader retracement. Bitcoin Support Levels: Key Insights According to Adler, Bitcoin’s current struggle around the $110K zone highlights how crucial strong support levels will be in shaping the next market phase. He points out that if BTC fails to hold the $100K–$107K confluent range, the next significant support lies deeper, around the $92K–$93K region. This zone reflects the cost basis of short-term holders who acquired Bitcoin within the past three to six months. Historically, such levels act as “last defense” areas where buyers step in, as these investors tend to be highly sensitive to price swings. Adler stresses that losing the $100K–$107K level would likely trigger a sharp reaction in the market, as it not only aligns with the 200-day SMA but also the Short-Term Holder Realized Price. A break below would shift sentiment, possibly leading to panic selling before stability re-emerges near the $92K–$93K area. Despite these risks, Adler and many other analysts still expect Bitcoin to reclaim momentum in the medium term. They argue that strong fundamentals, ranging from institutional adoption to declining exchange reserves, support the thesis of BTC pushing past all-time highs in the coming months. For now, however, the $100K–$107K range remains the battleground that will decide Bitcoin’s near-term direction. Related Reading: Ethereum Whale Demand Surges On Binance As Price Nears $5,000 BTC Price Analysis: Key Levels To Hold Bitcoin is trading near $110,213 after a sharp retrace, showing signs of struggle as bulls attempt to stabilize the market. The chart highlights a critical test at the 200-day moving average (200D SMA, red line), currently sitting just below the price and acting as the last major dynamic support. This level has historically provided strong protection during corrections, and losing it could trigger deeper declines. The 50-day (blue) and 100-day (green) SMAs are now turning into resistance levels after being breached in recent sessions. Both indicators cluster in the $111K–$116K range, signaling heavy selling pressure above. The broader structure shows Bitcoin has failed to reclaim the $123K zone, its recent all-time high, and has instead shifted into a consolidation phase marked by lower highs and testing supports. Related Reading: Ethereum Upper Realized Band Signals Market Heat: Profit-Taking Zone Ahead? If BTC loses the $110K zone, the next major support lies in the $100K–$107K range, aligning with Adler’s view that this area represents the STH (short-term holder) realized cost basis and the SMA 200D confluence. On the upside, reclaiming $115K will be the first step for a recovery. For now, Bitcoin remains in a vulnerable but critical zone where the next move will dictate whether bulls can regain control.

The crypto market has been rocked by a wave of liquidations totaling nearly $808 million in the past 24 hours, with Bitcoin (BTC) dipping below the critical $110,000 threshold. Related Reading: Is $105,000 The Bitcoin Bull Run Killer Or Just Noise? Top Analyst Explains This mass sell-off erased nearly all gains sparked by Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell’s dovish comments at Jackson Hole just days earlier, leaving investors questioning whether the dip signals opportunity, or danger. Bitcoin Flash Crash Triggers Massive Liquidations Data from CoinGlass shows that long positions accounted for $696 million of the $112 million liquidated, underscoring how overleveraged bullish traders were caught off guard. Bitcoin alone saw $272 million liquidated, while Ethereum (ETH) followed the list at $262 million. Altcoins including Solana, XRP, and Dogecoin also suffered double-digit losses, dragging the global market cap down by nearly $200 billion to $3.8 trillion. The sudden downturn was intensified by a Bitcoin whale unloading 24,000 BTC worth $2.7 billion, triggering a flash crash that sent shockwaves across exchanges. More than 200,000 traders were liquidated, with the single largest liquidation coming from a $39 million BTC trade on HTX. BTC's price trends to the downside on the daily chart. Source: BTCUSD on Tradingview Are Whales Buying the Dip? Despite the sell-off, blockchain data reveals that several large holders have been scooping up BTC and ETH during the downturn. One whale reportedly acquired 455 BTC ($50M), while another spent nearly $100M USDC to accumulate both Bitcoin and Ethereum. BitMine Immersion, one of the largest ETH holders, also added nearly 5,000 ETH to its reserves, signaling confidence in long-term growth despite short-term volatility. This “buy the dip” behavior suggests whales may see the correction as an entry point, boosting the belief among some analysts that the market is experiencing a healthy reset after weeks of overleveraging. What Comes Next for Bitcoin and Crypto? While Bitcoin trades precariously around $110,000, analysts warn that the next critical support lies at $105,000. A breakdown below this level could accelerate a fall toward the $92,000–$100,000 range. September has also historically been a weak month for crypto, adding further downside risk.

XRP’s price action this cycle has been full of notable bull runs. However, according to a crypto analyst known pseudonymously as CryptoBull, the real bull run is yet to begin. According to a technical analysis posted on X by this analyst, when XRP finally begins its bull run, the massive swing will take its price action to as high as $37. Analyst Says XRP Bull Run Hasn’t Started Yet XRP has displayed wide price swings in the past week, moving between $2.78 and $3.12 as volatility intensified across the wider crypto market. The token opened the week at $2.86 after a sharp sell-off, bounced back above $3.07 in a midweek surge, then retraced again before recovering to around $2.92 at the time of writing. These movements have kept XRP locked around the $3 level, which is shaping up as both resistance and support in the short term. Related Reading: Key Levels To Watch In Light Of XRP’s Macro Future Despite the price hovering around $3, which is still a 400% increase from its price point a year ago, crypto analyst CryptoBull argued that XRP has not yet entered its true bull run phase. In a post on X, the analyst highlighted how the current chart structure is repeating the pattern seen between 2015 and 2018. During that cycle, XRP traded in a prolonged sideways range before breaking into its historic rally that carried its price to an all-time high of $3.4. Although XRP has already broken past this price point to register a new peak of $3.65 this cycle, it is still closing below its previous peak. According to the analyst, this means that the breakout to new highs has not been confirmed. The accompanying chart reinforces this view, showing a consolidation just below the old ATH, with an arrow pointing to where the bull run begins. A Path To $37 If History Repeats Itself The most important takeaway here is for XRP to start closing above its previous all-time high of $3.4, especially on the weekly candlestick timeframe. According to CryptoBull, XRP would still be positioned to surge as high as $37 if this happens. This price target is based on the previous breakout in 2017, albeit with a reduced percentage gain. Related Reading: XRP On-Chain Activity Explodes By 500%, What’s Going On? If realized, this would represent more than a 1,130% increase from today’s price levels. Based on XRP’s current circulating supply, this would translate to a market cap of over $2.4 trillion. To put this into perspective, Bitcoin’s current market cap is currently about $2.2 trillion. Although this target might be too bullish, some XRP proponents have suggested that a Spot XRP ETF approval later this year could be the catalyst needed to ignite such a move. Others have even pointed to a larger price target above $100 contingent on XRP’s adoption among banks and other financial institutions. At the time of writing, XRP is trading at $2.92, down by 2.7% in the past 24 hours. Featured image from iStock, chart from Tradingview.com
