US crypto ETF approval odds surge to ‘90% or higher’ — Bloomberg analysts

Dogecoin edged up slightly to $0.17 on Friday, gaining 1.0% in the last 24 
hours. Trading has thinned out this week, and Dogecoin has slipped almost 3% 
over the past seven days. Based on reports, investors are moving carefully as 
volume dropped 30% to about $678 million. Related Reading: Iran’s Top Crypto

Drop Signals Caution According to on‑chain data, the slump in daily volume 
shows fewer traders are stepping in. That 34% slide in activity suggests a 
loss of momentum. Some market watchers say low volume often leads to whipsaws. 
When fewer coins change hands, even modest buys or sells can push prices 
sharply in either direction. #Dogecoin $DOGE looks prime for a 60% price move! 
All you need to do is wait for a daily close outside of the $0.16 to $0.22 
range to determine the direction of the trend. So go to @coinexcom, sign up

Points To Imminent Breakout On charts stretching from early 2024 into 
mid‑2025, Dogecoin fits a symmetrical triangle. Prices have carved lower highs 
and higher lows as trendlines converge. Data from crypto analyst Ali shows, 
this narrowing range often precedes a major move. He notes the tip of the 
triangle is due by June 2025, which puts a deadline on when volatility should 
pick up. DOGE Bulls Eye Breakout According to Ali’s analysis, a daily close 
above $0.22 likely signals a bullish breakout. If that happens, he sees 
Dogecoin reaching roughly $0.35 or $0.36—about 60% higher than current levels. 
On the flip side, a drop below $0.16 could spark a sell‑off toward $0.10. 
Investors are watching those exact levels to decide whether to join buyers or 
cut losses. DOGE Price Forecast Digital Coin Price is on the optimistic end. 
They predict Dogecoin could go past $0.37 before year‑end and even test its 
old high of $0.74 again. Market Catalysts Could Tip The Scales Dogecoin’s 
swings often mirror the wider crypto space or follow social media buzz. A 
surge in Bitcoin or Ethereum prices could carry DOGE higher, while a broader 
sell‑off would magnify losses. Some traders also keep an eye on endorsements 
from well‑known figures and major exchange listings. Related Reading: Bitcoin 
Nears Climax, But A Twist Awaits—Analyst Reveals Key Insight For now, patience 
may pay off. Traders will look for volume to confirm any move past $0.22 or 
under $0.16. Until then, expect choppy range‑bound action. The next few weeks 
will be critical as the symmetrical triangle tightens. If volume steps back 
in, Dogecoin could pick a clear direction—either a strong rally or a deeper 
correction. Featured image from Imagen, chart from TradingView

XRP Soars 300% as Investors Trigger Massive Profit-Taking, Data Shows

CryptoInsightUK’s latest market briefing arrives with the sound of literal 
hammer blows next door, an accidental soundtrack to the pounding he expects 
traders to take before the next rally. In a thirteen–minute walkthrough of 
XRP, Bitcoin and Ethereum liquidity maps, the British analyst argues that the 
market is staging what he calls “a deliberate trap” designed to flush out weak 
hands, harvest stop-loss orders and maximise upside leverage for larger 
players—leaving retail participants “screaming, ‘Yay, we’re going to the 
upside,’ … only to find out they’ve been played.” The Trap Is Set, Warns XRP 
Trader He begins with XRP’s five-month down-channel that started at the New- 
Year peak, noting that price continues to hug the underside of a descending 
trend line. “We’re stuck below that trend line basically looking to see if 
this liquidity is going to get taken below us. My obvious opinion is that it 
is,” he says, underscoring the conviction that a sweep of resting bids below 
remains the path of least resistance. The flush, he contends, would “make our 
journey to the upside much better and much easier to navigate,” because it 
would reset funding, scare out late longs and reload the order book for what 
he still calls the next “parabolic expansion probably up towards the $8 to $12 
region.” Related Reading: ‘Out of Time’: XRP Consolidation Hits Final Moment, 
Analyst Alerts The trap, however, may not be a straightforward vertical 
collapse. Charts, he reminds viewers, “love doing something like” an initial 
breakout that rallies 15-20%, convinces traders the bear-phase is finished, 
and then abruptly reverses into the deep liquidity pocket below. “That’s 
exactly how higher-highs-and-higher-lows type situations are supposed to get 
you frustrated,” he says, openly conceding that the pattern looks engineered. 
The phrase he never uses—manipulation—hovers unspoken over the analysis, but 
his rhetoric leaves little doubt: “This is how they test everybody.” Bitcoin, 
in his narrative, may serve as the decoy that sets the trap. The benchmark 
asset has already slipped out of its own wedge-like consolidation and, he 
observes, “does like to do this sort of thing” by staging premature upside 
breaks. He sketches a possible march toward $115,000 that would “delay the 
inevitable” and then give way to a liquidity hunt of its own. Even so, his 
mid-cycle price band for Bitcoin remains $150,000 to $220,000. That upside, he 
argues, justifies dollar-cost-averaging into altcoins even while keeping “a 
tiny bit of dry powder” in reserve for the washout he expects. Related

$5 A more elaborate scenario involves a temporary dominance surge in Bitcoin 
to the 66 to 74% range. As Bitcoin siphons capital, alts such as XRP would 
“bleed out,” take the downside liquidity target, and only then reverse as cash 
rotates back into their order books. He illustrates the dance on twin 
TradingView panels—Bitcoin on the left, XRP on the right—before concluding 
that the rotational setup is “not highly likely” because it requires several 
macro-scale dominoes to fall in sequence. Still, he refuses to dismiss it, 
pointing to the strategic reserve bill in Washington as the sort of narrative 
catalyst that could spark a temporary Bitcoin-only rally and demoralise alt- 
holders. Macro-risk flickers through the commentary—wars that could “shove us 
down” in the near term—but he treats geopolitical stress as a catalyst for 
final capitulation rather than a thesis-killer. “The upside is so large it 
almost can’t be ignored,” he insists, framing the present chop as a high- 
volatility pause before a structural up-leg. Whether that leg begins only 
after a full flush or emerges from yet another fake-out remains uncertain, but 
the analyst’s message is unmistakable: traders who chase breakouts without 
accounting for hidden hands risk being liquidated first, spectators to the 
parabola they hoped to ride. For now he is content to wait “for the market to 
do its worst trick,” believing that the final shakeout will announce itself 
through a sudden, depth-piercing wick. “You’re being played,” he warns. The 
admonition is stark: if the playbook unfolds as expected, the pain will be 
quick. “If we get these levels, that’s where I’m putting the last bit of my 
dry powder in[…]. It’s $1.80-ish, $1.90 maybe.” At press time, XRP traded at 
$2.16. Featured image created with DALL.E, chart from TradingView.com
