A growing sentiment in the cryptocurrency community suggests that XRP could be on the verge of becoming the next big crypto asset after Bitcoin. A recent exchange on the social media platform X between investment account Invest In Assets and crypto commentator Jake Claver relayed this sentiment, especially when it comes to selling too soon. The discussion comes when XRP is at its greatest level of support among its supporters, with some predicting it could mirror the meteoric runs made by Bitcoin in previous market cycles. XRP Following In The Footsteps Of Bitcoin The conversation began when an account on X known as “Invest In Assets” advised investors against prematurely selling a big winner. In response, Jake Claver noted Bitcoin’s runs as textbook examples of missed opportunities. Particularly, he noted that the mistake of selling too early happened to many people with Bitcoin, and it will ultimately happen again with XRP. Related Reading: Analyst Shares Where Bitcoin, Ethereum, And XRP Prices Will Be By 2032 Many traders who were fortunate to invest in Bitcoin very early exited when it started to soar in 2017 and 2021, only to watch prices soar far higher. Now, XRP is being framed as the next potential case study, and many analysts, not only Jake Claver, argue that the psychological trap of early profit-taking could strike again. Adding more weight to this argument is crypto commentator Vincent Van Code’s claim that Bitcoin was only an experiment, while XRP represents the final form of money. According to Van Code, although Bitcoin revolutionized finance by introducing decentralized digital currency with a fixed supply, its slow speed, high transaction costs, and scarcity-focused design ultimately limit its global liquidity potential. XRP, which is engineered for speed, scalability, and cross-border liquidity, offers a far more practical architecture for real-world value transfer. Don’t Sell XRP Too Early The discussions about not selling XRP early have taken strong root among investors looking to position themselves ahead of what could be another run. This ties into a similar admonishment by investor Johnny Crypto, who once revealed his personal perspective of selling too early.

He even warned that banks could attempt to seize control of retail crypto holdings within the next year and advised investors to think strategically about asset protection. XRP has already broken above its 2018 peak of $3.40 to register a new all-time high of $3.65 this cycle. However, several technical analyses have predicted the possibility of entering double-digit territory before the end of 2025. Analysts agree that the most important thing is patience, because the biggest mistake XRP holders can make this cycle might be selling before the real rally begins. At the time of writing, XRP is trading at $3.24, up by 3.1% in the past 24 hours. Featured image from Shutterstock, chart from Tradingview.com

According to CoinGlass and market reports, Dogecoin’s futures open interest breached the $3 billion barrier as traders piled back into the memecoin on August 12. Related Reading: Chainlink Tipped To Outshine XRP In Global Banking Links: Analyst The token climbed to $0.25 that day, and traders recorded a one-day gain of 4.10% while market capitalization rose nearly 4%. Short bursts of buying pushed derivatives exposure higher, and that helped push DOGE back into headlines. Open Interest Breaks $3 Billion Reports have disclosed that futures traders committed roughly 14.4 billion DOGE into positions over a single day — a figure that lines up with the $3.41 billion open interest reading when priced near $0.25. That number is striking because it means a huge amount of DOGE is sitting in unsettled contracts, not just spot wallets. Some traders see this as a sign of renewed confidence. Source: Coinglass Bullish Bets And Some Caution Rising open interest alongside a rising price often shows new money is coming in, and that is what many market watchers are pointing to now. At the same time, derivatives volume on some platforms has not kept pace with OI, which can make the move fragile if momentum fades or if a large position reverses. Reports from exchange data show futures volume dipped while OI climbed, suggesting more traders are holding positions rather than actively rotating them. That dynamic raises the chance of sharp moves if sentiment flips. Analyst Targets And Market Signals According to crypto analyst Ali Martinez, Dogecoin is forming a bullish flag on the hourly chart with a target set at $0.27, a view he shared publicly on X. Other market voices have pointed out that a clean break and higher trading volume would be needed to make that target more likely. $0.27 next for Dogecoin $DOGE! https://t.co/bKkOj6fz2z pic.twitter.com/Z5MXTOA2fG — Ali (@ali_charts) August 12, 2025 Related Reading: Quantum Computers No Match For Bitcoin’s Math, Google Expert Says What Traders Should Watch Next Based on data, keep an eye on funding rates, options flow, and whether futures volume begins to climb with open interest. Funding rate trends will show whether longs are paying to hold positions, and sudden spikes in liquidations can force quick reversals. Bitcoin’s moves should also be on the radar; memecoins tend to follow the big market swings. If price and OI both keep rising with stronger volume, the bullish case gains some weight. If OI rises while volume falls, the move looks more brittle. Dogecoin’s jump to about $3.41 billion in open interest and the commitment of roughly 14.41 billion DOGE into futures point to renewed trader interest.

Ethereum has surged to multi-year highs around $4,700, marking its strongest level since November 2021 and putting it within striking distance of its all-time high near $4,860. The rally has placed ETH on the verge of a price discovery phase, something the market hasn’t experienced in years. If bulls manage to push decisively beyond this key resistance, Ethereum could enter uncharted territory, with momentum potentially accelerating as traders and institutions pile in. Related Reading: Alameda Research Unlocks $35M In Solana After 4 Years – Imminent Distribution? Fueling this bullish scenario is data from CryptoQuant showing Ethereum’s 30-day Simple Moving Average (SMA30) for exchange netflows at -40,000 ETH. This sustained negative reading means that, on average, 40,000 ETH per day have been withdrawn from exchanges over the past month. Negative netflows indicate stronger buying pressure, as tokens moved off exchanges are typically held in private wallets or deployed in staking and DeFi protocols — reducing the immediate sell-side supply. The combination of a historically tight supply, strong on-chain accumulation, and technical strength near all-time highs has set the stage for a pivotal breakout. For traders, the coming sessions could determine whether Ethereum cements its status as the market leader in this cycle, or if it will face another round of consolidation before making its move into price discovery. Ethereum Exchange Outflows Signal Strong Buying Pressure According to top analyst Burak Kesmeci, Ethereum has seen 1.2 million ETH withdrawn from exchanges in just one month, marking one of the most significant accumulation trends in recent history. While headlines often highlight single-day spikes — like “100,000 ETH withdrawn from exchanges!” — Kesmeci stresses that these snapshots can be misleading. The real insight comes from observing sustained trends over time. The Ethereum All Exchanges Netflow metric tracks the balance of inflows and outflows across all exchanges. Positive values represent ETH inflows, which can signal potential selling pressure as coins move onto exchanges. Negative values represent outflows, typically a sign that buying pressure dominates, as investors transfer coins to private wallets, staking contracts, or DeFi protocols. In 2025, the SMA30 (30-day Simple Moving Average) of netflows has been firmly in negative territory, strengthening in recent weeks. As of August 12, 2025, the SMA30 stands at -40,000 ETH, meaning an average daily outflow of 40,000 ETH over the past month. This level of sustained withdrawal indicates strong conviction among holders. As long as the SMA30 remains negative, Ethereum’s uptrend is likely to continue. A shift to positive territory could signal easing demand, but for now, the momentum remains firmly with the bulls. This trend reinforces the view that ETH’s rally still has room to run in the short term. Related Reading: Bitcoin Realized P&L Ratio Signals Sustainable Rally: Reversal Risk Remains Low Price Action Details: Closing In On All-Time Highs Ethereum (ETH) is trading at $4,691 on the weekly chart, posting a sharp 10.34% gain as bullish momentum accelerates. This rally has pushed ETH to its highest level since November 2021, bringing it within reach of its all-time high near $4,860. The breakout from the $3,860 resistance zone earlier this month was decisive, supported by strong volume, and now serves as a key support level. Technical indicators show ETH well above its 50-week SMA ($2,776), 100-week SMA ($2,763), and 200-week SMA ($2,443), confirming a robust long-term uptrend. The slope of the 50-week SMA is turning sharply upward, reflecting the speed of recent gains.

Crypto analyst KrissPax has made a case for why the Dogecoin price could still reach the psychological $1 level based on the 4-year cycle. Analysts like Kevin Capital have also declared that DOGE’s best move is still ahead. Why The Dogecoin Price Can Still Reach $1 In an X post, KrissPax alluded to the 4-year cycle to prove why the Dogecoin price can still reach $1. He stated that meme coin has throughout its history shown patterns that reinforce these cycles of crypto trading. The analyst added that from bear markets to bull runs and blow-off tops, DOGE has repeated these movements, which indicate that a parabolic rally is going to happen this fall. Related Reading: Dogecoin Open Interest Remains Above $3 Billion, Can Bulls Take Control? In line with this, KrissPax remarked that the Dogecoin price could reach $1 if it follows the white upward sloping resistance, which he highlighted on his accompanying chart. Furthermore, he stated that if DOGE follows the blue arc from 2017, which supports the theory that the gains will be less each cycle with a larger market cap, then it could reach as high as $2 this cycle. The Dogecoin price is currently enjoying another uptrend after dropping below the psychological $0.2 level during the last market correction. DOGE is up over 17% in the last seven days and is now looking to reclaim its previous local high of around $0.26. Crypto analyst Ali Martinez has predicted that it would happen soon. In an X post, Martinez said that the Dogecoin price is targeting $0.27 as it forms a bullish flag on the hourly chart. Crypto analyst Trader Tardigrade also highlighted a bull flag breakout for DOGE on the 4-hour chart and stated that the meme coin is now targeting $0.295. Like KrissPax, Trader Tardigrade also indicated that the meme coin could reach the $1 price level at some point. He revealed that the Dogecoin price had confirmed a bullish crossover on the daily chart. The analyst further remarked that a decent surge could occur at this point. His accompanying chart showed that $1 was the target. The Best Is Yet To Come For DOGE In an X post, crypto analyst Kevin Capital indicated that the best is yet to come for the Dogecoin price. He stated that all monthly momentum, strength, and sentiment indicators on DOGE show that investors have not yet seen what the foremost meme coin is capable of. He noted that this is similar to many other altcoins. Related Reading: Dogecoin To $1 Is Within Reach—Here’s What Must Happen First, Says Analyst Kevin Capital further remarked that if all stays steady with the macro and the Bitcoin price holds up, then the Dogecoin price’s biggest move is likely still ahead. The Fed is expected to cut rates in September, which is a positive for DOGE, as it could inject more liquidity into the meme coin. At the time of writing, the Dogecoin price is trading at around $0.2362, up over 2% in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap.
