Dogecoin is once again in the spotlight as market analyst Master Ananda outlines a bold outlook for its current bull cycle. Past cycles show that major moves in DOGE often unfold over many months, not weeks. Ananda highlights that the meme coin has already been in an uptrend for years, with strong momentum since 2022 and a clear breakout from October 2023. While no one can predict markets with certainty, the analyst argues that the path of growth is already in motion, and price targets suggest a possible climb as high as $2.55 this cycle. Dogecoin’s Historical Growth Patterns Vs. Current Cycle Looking back at Dogecoin’s history, the numbers speak for themselves. In the last bull market, DOGE grew an incredible 65,527% over 420 days, proving that its rallies have the power to stretch far beyond what most expect. This context makes it hard to believe the claim that all potential growth must be squeezed into just two months, or “eight candles,” as Ananda puts it. Related Reading: Market Expert Reveals Why XRP Price At $1,000 Is Not A Possibility Dogecoin hit its bear market bottom in June 2022, following the May 2021 all-time high. From that point, including a long stretch of consolidation, DOGE has been on a steady climb for 1,155 days. The uptrend became much clearer in October 2023, meaning it has been building strength for 672 days since then. Given this background, Ananda asks: Who decides the rally has to end in exactly two months? Why not three, four, or even more months of continued growth? He points out that the market does not always follow the predictions of central banks or analysts, and external expectations like recession fears often fail to match what happens. In some cases, while traditional markets fall, crypto can surprise everyone by turning ultra bullish. For Dogecoin, that kind of perfect timing is not impossible. With this in mind, the analyst believes the idea of a short-lived rally underestimates Dogecoin’s potential. Its chart shows years of progress and a trend that is still far from over. While it remains below its all-time high, Ananda is confident that the crypto will surpass it this cycle. Key Price Targets And Resistance Levels Ahead Turning to the chart, Ananda lays out clear price levels to watch. The first significant resistance stands at $0.47, a milestone that is within reach this month if momentum continues. Breaking through that level would set the stage for a test of the previous all-time high at $0.74. Related Reading: Ethereum Still At Risk Of Being Overtaken By XRP? Analyst Walks Back Shocking Prediction Beyond that lies $1.166, which Ananda calls the primary resistance for the current move. If Dogecoin can push past this zone, the door opens to even higher targets that could redefine the cycle, with the potential for a price climb to $1.85 or even $2.55, marking an increase of around 1,000% from current levels. While short-term uncertainty is always present, especially with talk of recessions or market corrections, Ananda argues that Dogecoin’s setup remains bullish. The market may look calm now, but the conditions are in place for a breakout. Featured image from Unsplash, chart from TradingView.com

Qubic’s mining group has picked Dogecoin as its next target after claiming it briefly gained majority control of Monero’s network, according to reports. Related Reading: Trump Coin Jumps 10% On Canary Capital ETF Filing: Details The group said it reorganized six blocks on Monero and then asked its community to vote on which ASIC-friendly proof-of-work coin to test next. The vote came on Aug. 17. Community Picks Dogecoin Based on reports, Dogecoin won the vote with more than 300 votes. Qubic’s founder, Sergey Ivancheglo, shared that Dogecoin beat out Zcash and Kaspa in a public poll. The project says its Monero pool reached a 51% share and that it currently runs about two point three GH/s of Monero hashrate. The group calls these moves “stress tests” and says they are meant to show how its mining model works, while also using pool profits to buy and burn QUBIC tokens. The group added it does not want to destroy networks. The #Qubic community has chosen #Dogecoin. pic.twitter.com/EnevIZUAw5 — Come-from-Beyond (@c___f___b) August 17, 2025 The technical claim has sparked debate in the Monero community. Some developers and miners question whether the pool ever held sustained, uncontested control. Others say the actions — which reorganized blocks — are proof the group can alter short stretches of chain history. Either way, the interruption was enough for Kraken to pause Monero deposits while exchanges and services assessed risk. What A 51% Attack Can Do A 51% attack lets the controller reorganize blocks or stop transactions. A group that controls more than half of a network’s mining power can rewrite recent blocks, halt certain transactions, or try double-spends. Qubic’s move showed it could force a small reorg on Monero. If a similar level of control were applied to Dogecoin, the effect could be larger because Dogecoin has a market capitalization above $35 billion. Still, Dogecoin benefits from merged-mining with Litecoin and runs at a much higher hashrate, so an attack would likely cost far more. Markets and exchanges reacted quickly. Prices moved on the news and custodial services tightened checks. Kraken’s decision to pause deposits underscored how exchanges will act fast when block reorgs or other threats appear. Users and traders faced increased short-term uncertainty. Related Reading: XRP’s Toughest Bull Run Could Lead To Big Gains, Analyst Claims What To Watch Next Based on reports, the timeline is unclear but the issue raises bigger questions. Qubic has not given a clear timeline for any action against Dogecoin. Observers will watch for technical logs, more statements from the project, and any responses from Dogecoin and Litecoin developers. A Hostile Act? People will also be looking for proof that Qubic’s tests were non-destructive and for evidence about how long the pool actually held control. Most outlets call what Qubic did a 51% attack (a chain reorg), not a “hack” in the usual sense — but it’s still an attack on network consensus and many people treat it as hostile.
