The Dogecoin price may be poised for a significant rebound, as a familiar long-term pattern has emerged on its chart. According to technical analysis, the structure looks almost identical to a setup that triggered a major breakout in its previous cycle, from 2023 to 2024. With Dogecoin currently at a crucial support level that once marked the start of its last sustained rally, a crypto analyst has projected that the meme coin could enter a new bullish phase, potentially driving it above $1. Past Pattern Foreshadows Dogecoin Price Surge To $1 Crypto analyst Trader Tardigrade has predicted that the Dogecoin price could soon surge to $1.10 from its current $0.15 in this cycle. In a recent X post, he highlighted that Dogecoin’s weekly chart has settled on its support trendline for the third time in the current 2021-2026 cycle.

The chart shows DOGE’s price reaching this key level after a prolonged pullback, creating a structure similar to the one that formed in late 2023. At the time, this pattern marked the beginning of a slow but consistent uptrend that lasted throughout 2024, ultimately creating the meme coin’s mid-cycle range peak. The historical comparison between the 2023 – 2024 cycle and the current cycle is clear on the analyst’s chart. In the previous cycle, Dogecoin completed three closes at the support zone before sharply reversing upward. The latest weekly pattern mirrors the exact alignment, with price tightening around a rising trendline while forming higher lows. Trader Tardigrade also noted that the previous cycle’s slow bull run began from the same setup. Notably, the chart highlights a large boxed region representing the projected 2024 to 2025 phase, where a widening price structure suggests that Dogecoin could still have room for an upward move. If historical patterns repeat as expected, the meme coin could initiate another powerful leg up above $1 by 2026. Dogecoin’s Bullish Thesis Strengthens After Channel Break Trader Tardigrade has also highlighted an important improvement on Dogecoin’s lower-timeframe chart, indicating a shift from a downtrend. The two-hour chart setup reveals a breakout from a Descending Channel that had previously controlled price movements during the meme coin’s recent decline. The breakout is visible as the white price line pushes above the Descending Channel’s upper boundary, signaling a potential shift in short-term momentum.

While the RSI has broken above its resistance zone, the MACD histogram shows a buildup in positive momentum, with bars expanding upward. The analyst has explained that Dogecoin often begins its largest bull rallies with early signals on the LTF before spreading to the higher time frames. With momentum rising, Trader Tardigrade believes the DOGE price may already be initiating an uptrend. Featured image from Getty Images, chart from Tradingview.com

Bitcoin sits roughly 5% below its 2025 open, and analysts say market positioning points to further downside.
Bitcoin is now holding ground around the $90K level as the market transitions into a new and uncertain phase. Sentiment is sharply divided: some analysts argue that the breakdown below $100K marks the beginning of a new bear market, while others believe Bitcoin is setting the stage to break its traditional four-year cycle and rally harder than ever in the months ahead. This tension reflects a market struggling to price in fear, macro pressure, and structural shifts in liquidity. Related Reading: XRP Supply In Profit Falls to 58.5% – Lowest Since 2024 Despite Higher Price According to new data shared by top analyst Darkfost, more than 6.96 million BTC accumulated by investors are now sitting at an unrealized loss. This marks the highest level of unrealized loss since January 2024, even though the current correction has not yet surpassed the steepest drawdown seen earlier in the cycle. The implication is clear: a massive portion of supply was accumulated near Bitcoin’s previous all-time highs, making recent selling pressure especially emotional and reactive. Despite this, Bitcoin continues to defend the $90K region — a sign that demand is absorbing extreme stress. Whether this marks the early stage of a bear market or the final flush before a major rebound remains the central question dominating the market. Rising Unrealized Losses Signal a Classic “Change of Hands” Phase Darkfost explains that the spike in unrealized losses reflects a simple but critical reality: a massive amount of Bitcoin was accumulated near the previous all-time highs, meaning many recent buyers are now underwater. This is especially true for short-term holders (STHs), who tend to react quickly to volatility. Their elevated cost basis — clustered near cycle tops — makes them more vulnerable to panic selling, which is exactly what the market is witnessing as BTC hovers near $90K. This phenomenon helps explain the intense selling pressure seen in recent days. STHs, driven by fear and deteriorating sentiment, have been sending coins to exchanges at a loss, amplifying short-term volatility. But Darkfost notes an important historical pattern: during bullish market structures, rising unrealized losses have consistently produced strong buying opportunities.

This is the defining moment of the “change of hands” narrative — where Bitcoin shifts from emotionally driven participants to strategic holders who shape the next major move. BTC Price Analysis: Testing Major Support as Momentum Weakens Bitcoin continues to trade under heavy pressure, holding just above the critical $90K region after a sharp multi-week decline. The 3-day chart shows a decisive break below the 50-day and 100-day moving averages, signaling a loss of short- and medium-term momentum. Price is now sitting directly on the 200-day moving average — a level that historically acts as the final line of defense during deep corrections in bullish cycles. The recent candles show long lower wicks, suggesting buyers are attempting to defend this zone, but the rebound strength remains limited. Volume has increased on downside moves, confirming that sellers are driving the current structure. This pattern resembles previous late-cycle shakeouts, where high volatility clusters near major moving averages precede a trend reset or further breakdown.

A sustained break below the 200-day MA could accelerate downside momentum and expose lower liquidity pockets around $85K–$88K. However, if bulls manage to stabilize the price above $90K and reclaim the 100-day MA in the coming sessions, it could signal seller exhaustion. Right now, Bitcoin sits at a pivotal crossroads, with market sentiment fragile and direction dependent on how this support zone holds. Featured image from ChatGPT, chart from TradingView.com

Libra-linked wallets quietly pulled roughly $4 million from a failing memecoin and used part of their stash to pile into Solana, according to on-chain tracking and news reports. Related Reading: Crypto Carnage Continues — Tom Lee Exposes What’s Really Going On The move comes amid fraud probes and renewed scrutiny of the token’s launch, which earlier this year saw large withdrawals that rocked investor confidence and drew legal attention. Wallets Rotate Funds Into Solana Based on on-chain data, two addresses tied to the Libra project — labeled “Libra Deployer (Defcy)” and “Libra Wallet (61yKS)” — bought about $61.5 million worth of SOL at an average price near $135. Before these purchases, the same addresses reportedly held roughly $57 million in USDC, enabling a quick rotation from stablecoin holdings into a major Layer-1 token. Blockchain analysts flagged the activity after tracing a string of transfers that drained the last remaining liquidity from the token’s market. The withdrawals of nearly $4 million followed earlier large cash-outs tied to the coin’s creators that investigators say removed as much as $99 million from circulation at the token’s launch. That wave of exits and the token’s sudden collapse prompted several probes in Argentina and the US. What The Purchases Mean For Markets Market watchers said the swap into SOL is notable because it moves money from a controversial, politically linked memecoin into a mainstream crypto asset. Meanwhile, the political angle has not faded. The Libra token’s launch drew attention after Argentine President Javier Milei publicly promoted the coin and then tried to distance himself as losses mounted. The broader pattern of meme tokens tied to politicians has raised fresh worries about transparency and investor protection, with some lawmakers and regulators taking a closer look. Legal And Control Questions Remain Reports have asked who finally controls the wallets now and whether authorities can freeze the new SOL holdings. Fraud investigations are active, but on-chain moves show the addresses retained control long enough to shift assets across chains.
