Dogecoin started a fresh decline below the $0.0980 zone against the US Dollar. 
DOGE is now consolidating losses and might face hurdles near $0.0950 and 
$0.0980. DOGE price started a fresh decline below the $0.0965 level. The price 
is trading below the $0.0965 level and the 100-hourly simple moving average. 
There is a bearish trend line forming with resistance at $0.0950 on the hourly 
chart of the DOGE/USD pair (data source from Kraken). The price could extend 
losses if it stays below $0.0950 and $0.0980. Dogecoin Price At Risk of More 
Downside Dogecoin price started a fresh decline after it closed below $0.0980, 
like Bitcoin and Ethereum. DOGE declined below the $0.0965 and $0.0950 support 
levels. The price even traded below $0.0925. A low was formed near $0.0917, 
and the price is now showing bearish signs. There was a recovery wave above 
$0.0940, but the price stayed below the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the 
downward move from the $0.1044 swing high to the $0.0917 low. Dogecoin price 
is now trading below the $0.0950 level and the 100-hourly simple moving 
average. If there is a recovery wave, immediate resistance on the upside is 
near the $0.0950 level. There is also a bearish trend line forming with 
resistance at $0.0950 on the hourly chart of the DOGE/USD pair. The first 
major resistance for the bulls could be near the $0.0980 level and the 50% Fib 
retracement level of the downward move from the $0.1044 swing high to the 
$0.0917 low. The next major resistance is near the $0.10 level. A close above 
the $0.10 resistance might send the price toward the $0.1050 resistance. Any 
more gains might send the price toward the $0.1080 level. The next major stop 
for the bulls might be $0.1120. More Losses In DOGE? If DOGE’s price fails to 
climb above the $0.0950 level, it could continue to move down. Initial support 
on the downside is near the $0.0920 level. The next major support is near the 
$0.0880 level. The main support sits at $0.0850. If there is a downside break 
below the $0.0850 support, the price could decline further. In the stated 
case, the price might slide toward the $0.0800 level or even $0.0750 in the 
near term. Technical Indicators Hourly MACD – The MACD for DOGE/USD is now 
losing momentum in the bearish zone. Hourly RSI (Relative Strength Index) – 
The RSI for DOGE/USD is now below the 50 level. Major Support Levels – $0.0920 
and $0.0880. Major Resistance Levels – $0.0950 and $0.0980.

Dogecoin (DOGE) Slips After Failure, Can Bulls Contain More Downside?

BTQ Technologies moved a key Bitcoin (BTC) security proposal from theory to 
practice on Thursday, releasing Bitcoin Quantum testnet v0.3.0 with the first 
working implementation of Bitcoin Improvement Proposal 360 (BIP 360). The 
upgrade—aimed at making Bitcoin transactions resistant to future quantum- 
computing attacks—gives developers, miners, and researchers a live environment 
to test how quantum-resistant transactions would function on a running 
network. How Bitcoin Could Shield Keys From Quantum Attacks BIP 360, also 
known as Pay-to-Merkle-Root (P2MR), was merged into Bitcoin’s official BIP 
repository earlier this year but remains a draft proposal within the broader 
Bitcoin ecosystem. BTQ’s testnet release delivers the first functional 
implementation of that proposal, enabling participants to create, fund, sign, 
and spend P2MR transactions and observe the full lifecycle from mempool 
acceptance through broadcast and confirmation. Related Reading: Sen. Lummis

The importance of BIP 360 stems from a long‑term cryptographic risk: in a 
future where quantum computers reach sufficient capability, exposed public 
keys on-chain—an outcome of Taproot’s key-path spend design—could be 
vulnerable to attacks leveraging Shor’s algorithm. Taproot, activated on 
Bitcoin back in 2021, underpins many advanced features and scaling efforts for 
the protocol, but its reliance on on-chain public keys creates a potential 
attack surface in a quantum-enabled world. P2MR addresses this by committing 
directly to the Merkle root of a script tree rather than relying on an 
internal key or tweak, preserving Taproot’s scripting flexibility while 
removing the key-path mechanism that could expose public keys. Devs Can Now 
Test Quantum‑Safe BTC Transactions BTQ’s Bitcoin Quantum testnet v0.3.0 
implements full P2MR consensus rules, including SegWit version 2 outputs with 
bc1z (bech32m) address encoding, Merkle root commitment verification, and 
control block validation. The release also enables all five Dilithium 
post‑quantum signature opcodes within the P2MR tapscript context, providing 
real quantum-resistant signature verification inside the script tree. To 
support developer workflows, BTQ included end-to-end command-line wallet 
tooling and full RPC wallet support so users can perform the complete P2MR 
transaction flow on testnet. BTQ And CEO’s Warnings Olivier Roussy Newton, 
BTQ’s CEO and chairman, framed the launch as a practical advance for industry 
preparedness. “BIP 360 represents the Bitcoin community&#8217;s most significant 
step toward quantum resistance, and we&#8217;ve turned it from a proposal into 
running code,” he said. The company further said the testnet’s live 
validation—covering address creation, funding, transaction construction, 
signing, mempool acceptance, broadcast, and confirmation—gives implementers 
and auditors the chance to observe how P2MR operates end to end. It also 
signaled that BIP 360’s implementation is network-activated across Bitcoin 
Quantum’s testing environments, ensuring the feature is available to anyone 
participating in the testnet. Related Reading: XRP Price Projections Soar To 
$15-$30 On CLARITY Act Prospects And Bank Adoption However, the firm warned 
that waiting until a quantum-capable adversary emerges would be risky, and 
urged the industry to move beyond purely theoretical discussion. “The industry 
can&#8217;t afford to treat quantum resistance as a theoretical exercise,” Newton 
said, adding: BIP 360 was a landmark proposal, and we&#8217;ve turned it into a 
landmark implementation. Every developer, researcher, and institution that 
wants to understand how quantum-safe Bitcoin actually works now has a live 
network to test against. At the time of writing, BTC was trading at $69,534, 
having recorded losses of 3% in the past 24 hours after testing the $76,000 
resistance wall earlier this week. Featured image from OpenArt, chart from
