Dogecoin Price Primed for Rally to $6 As DOGE Active Addresses Jump 400%
Dogecoin price has bounced back from its crucial support levels at $0.16, trading 2.54% up, and moving back to its weekly resistance of $0.175. On-chain data also shows that the DOGE address activity has surged by 400% amid strong investor sentiment. Some market analysts believe that the gates for a parabolic rally in Dogecoin are still open. Dogecoin Price to See A Parabolic Rally to $6? Crypto market analysts are hopeful of a Dogecoin price rally all the way to $6 as the bulls take charge, bouncing back from the support of $6. Popular crypto analyst Ali Martinez displays Dogecoin’s price movement on a weekly timeframe from 2015 through early 2025. Source: Ali Charts The technical analysis shows DOGE trading within a long-term logarithmic upward channel defined by parallel trend lines. As we can see from the above image, as long as DOGE holds above the crucial support levels, it can rally further all the way to $6 and beyond. DOGE Active Addresses Surge 400% Citing on-chain data from Santiment, crypto analyst Ali Martinez highlighted a major spike in Dogecoin (DOGE) network activity. According to the report, active Dogecoin addresses have surged by 400%, reaching nearly 395,000. This significant uptick in activity underscores growing interest in the popular meme coin. Source: Ali Charts Furthermore, analyst Ali Martinez also pointed out the Stochastic RSI crossover for the Dogecoin price, referring to it as the starting point of the new bullish phase. A bullish crossover in the Stochastic RSI on Dogecoin’s weekly chart could signal a potential sharp rally, based on historical trends. Previous instances of this crossover have led to significant price surges, with gains of 88%, 187%, and even 444%. Source: Ali Charts Short Term Target for DOGE While the expectations of a parabolic Dogecoin price rally to $6 could be far-fetched for now, it is still aiming for 200-300% gains from here onwards. Prominent crypto analyst Marzell has highlighted a critical support level for Dogecoin (DOGE) in recent technical analysis. According to the analyst, maintaining the $0.14750 level is crucial for a bullish breakout scenario. Furthermore, the analyst added that DOGE is showing promising signs of a breakout from its current falling wedge pattern. If the support holds firm, the analyst predicts a strong rally, potentially pushing DOGE prices toward the $0.46 to $0.65 range.

Trump Coin Volume Explodes to $1.5B – Is a Major Announcement Incoming?
The Trump (TRUMP) token is experiencing a surge in trading activity, with 24-hour volume hitting $1.5 billion. This spike in liquidity has fueled speculation about a potential major announcement, drawing increased interest from traders and investors. TRUMP has gained 2.79% in the last 24 hours, currently trading at $11.91 with a market capitalization of $2.38 billion. With a circulating supply of 199.99 million TRUMP out of its 999.99 million max supply, the coin maintains its #39 ranking in the broader crypto market. However, the breakout past key resistance levels could be the catalyst for a bigger move. $TRUMP has broken out of consolidation, surging from $9.55 to $12.47, and is now stabilizing around $11.66, signaling strong bullish momentum. If it holds above support, a breakout past $12.50 could drive it toward $14 and beyond. The buying pressure is increasing, setting the… pic.twitter.com/aMD8alZGiC — BitGuru (@bitgu_ru) March 14, 2025 Crypto analyst BitGuru (@bitgu_ru) highlighted in a recent tweet that TRUMP has broken out of consolidation, rallying from $9.55 to $12.47 and now stabilizing around $11.66. According to BitGuru, if TRUMP holds above support, a breakout past $12.50 could push the price toward $14 and beyond. “Buying pressure is increasing, setting the stage for the next big rally!” – BitGuru Technical Analysis: TRUMP/USDT – March 15, 2025 Trump Coin has climbed above the 50-period EMA ($11.32), signaling a shift toward bullish momentum. The price is testing major resistance at $12.47, which aligns with a descending trendline that has historically capped upside movements. If TRUMP breaks above $12.47, the next major resistance levels are $13.76 and $14.80—both key zones where selling pressure emerged in previous trading cycles. However, failure to sustain momentum could lead to a pullback toward $11.32, which is now acting as pivot support. A breakdown below this level could expose $11.12 and $9.57 as the next downside targets. Conclusion: Is TRUMP Ready for a Major Move? With volume surging and technical indicators favoring an uptrend, TRUMP is at a crucial breakout zone. If $12.50 resistance is breached, momentum could push the token toward $14-$15. However, failure to hold support could lead to a short-term pullback before the next leg up. Key Takeaways: TRUMP has surged from $9.55 to $12.47, now stabilizing near $11.66. A breakout past $12.50 could push the token toward $14+. Volume spike to $1.5B signals strong bullish interest, but key resistance must be broken. Traders should watch $12.50 closely, as a breakout could signal the start of the next big rally. As Trump Coin gains momentum with a surge in trading volume, another rising star in the crypto space is making waves—Solaxy ($SOLX), Solana’s first-ever Layer 2 solution. With its presale nearing $27 million, Solaxy is rapidly positioning itself as a game-changer in blockchain scalability. Solaxy ($SOLX) Nears $27M Presale Milestone – Last Chance to Buy Early! Solaxy ($SOLX) is making history as Solana’s first-ever Layer 2 scaling solution, designed to reduce network congestion, lower transaction fees, and enhance scalability. With over $26.4 million raised in its presale and a rapidly expanding community of 72,000+ followers on X, Solaxy is cementing its role as a major force in Solana’s ecosystem. Why Solaxy Stands Out Solana’s First Layer 2: Boosts scalability and transaction efficiency. Cross-Chain Compatibility: Seamlessly connects with Ethereum and other major blockchains.

Can Bitcoin Outperform Gold in 2025? Tom Lee’s Bold Prediction
The post Can Bitcoin Outperform Gold in 2025? Tom Lee’s Bold Prediction appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News Bitcoin is one of the cryptos that have benefited hugely from the shift in political attitude towards the cryptocurrency industry. Just weeks after the victory of Donald Trump against Kamala Harris in the U.S. presidential election, the Bitcoin market achieved the impressive milestone of $100K. Like the majority of the top ten cryptos, the upward momentum in the BTC market has started to slow down since the beginning of 2025. The YTD change of BTC stands at -10.2%. In the last seven days alone, the Bitcoin price has declined by over 2.71%. However, Fundstrat co-founder Tom Lee predicted that Bitcoin would become the best-performing asset class of the year. He even asserted that BTC would outperform gold in 2025. Unbelievable, isn’t it? Let’s dive deep! Bitcoin Will Outperform Gold in 2025 In the previous year, the gold price reported a rise of 27.44%. Meanwhile, during the same period, the Bitcoin price registered a surge of at least +121.1%. Though BTC strongly outperformed XAU in 2024, the crypto, popularly known as digital gold, struggled to maintain its growth pace in the first quarter of 2025. The YTD change of gold is nearly 13.7%, but the YTD of Bitcoin is -10.2%. Bitcoin’s poor performance in the first quarter has raised questions about its potential to challenge the dominance of Gold in the market as the most trusted store of value. However, Lee predicted that the Bitcoin market would outperform the gold market this year. Bitcoin’s Performance in 2025 So Far At the start of 2025, the price of BTC was at $93,536.41. In January, the BTC market experienced a moderate growth of 9.54%. However, in February, the market saw a significant drop of -17.55%. The MTD of BTC stands at -0.48%. At the beginning of this month, the price of Bitcoin was at $84,381.04. In the first two days of the month, the market witnessed a rise of 11.68%. At one point on March 2, the market reached as high as $95,048.73. This month, the market has recorded two major corrections: an 8.5% drop on March 3 and a 13.25% decline between March 6 and 10. The market has not yet fully recovered from these corrections. Currently, the BTC price remains at $83,873 – at least 13.32% below the peak of the month. Lee’s Bold Prediction for 2025 According to Lee, the price of Bitcoin would reach as high as $150,000 in the year 2025. It appears that this analyst is extremely optimistic about the future prospects of the BTC market. An analysis of the previous Bitcoin price predictions of Lee indicates that he has a mixed record in BTC predictions. However, Lee is a very respected figure in the financial sector. Fundstrat, the organisation he co-founded, is one of the most prestigious independent financial research firms.

David Sacks Sold $200M in Crypto Before Taking White House AI and Crypto Role
David Sacks and his venture capital firm Craft Ventures liquidated over $200 million in cryptocurrency and crypto-related stocks before he assumed his role as the White House AI and crypto czar, according to a March 5 memorandum from the White House. “You and Craft Ventures have divested over $200 million of positions related to the digital asset industry, of which $85 million is directly attributable to you,” the memo stated . The document outlined that Sacks took significant steps to reduce potential conflicts of interest before taking the position, where he is tasked with helping develop a regulatory framework for the crypto industry. Crypto and Stock Holdings Offloaded Before Trump’s Inauguration Before Donald Trump was sworn in as the 47th U.S. president on January 20, Sacks liquidated all his personal cryptocurrency holdings, including Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), and Solana (SOL). Craft Ventures also sold off its crypto investments, ensuring that neither Sacks nor his firm held digital assets upon his appointment. Sacks also divested from publicly traded crypto firms such as Coinbase (COIN) and Robinhood (HOOD), along with stakes in private digital asset companies. Furthermore, he exited his limited partner interests in Solana-focused Multichain Capital and Blockchain Capital, while Craft Ventures offloaded its holdings in Multichain Capital and Bitwise Asset Management. Since Trump’s inauguration, the crypto market has experienced a downturn, with many attributing the decline to uncertainty surrounding U.S. interest rates and proposed tariffs. Bitcoin had reached an all-time high of $109,000 just hours before Trump took office, but by February 27, it had fallen below $80,000, wiping out all post-election gains. As of publication, Bitcoin is trading around $84,155, according to CoinMarketCap. The memorandum surfaced one day before Senator Elizabeth Warren sent a March 6 letter demanding that Sacks prove he no longer holds any cryptocurrency. The request followed Sacks’ public statement on X confirming that he had sold all his crypto holdings. Correct. I sold all my cryptocurrency (including BTC, ETH, and SOL) prior to the start of the administration. https://t.co/dN6nuGQUtu — David Sacks (@DavidSacks) March 3, 2025 Warren questioned the timing of Sacks’ divestment, asking for transparency regarding when he and Craft Ventures offloaded their positions and whether individuals close to him benefited from the recent price surge before selling. Sacks’ Views on Crypto Regulation Since assuming his role at the White House, Sacks has been a vocal advocate for the crypto industry. He has pushed for a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve and warned against excessive taxation on digital assets. Most recently, on the All In Podcast, he rejected the idea of a crypto transaction tax , after host Jason Calacanis proposed a 0.01% tax on all cryptocurrency transactions. “That’s always how taxes start. They are described as being very modest,” Sacks warned, referencing how income tax was initially applied to only a few Americans before expanding to the broader population. President Donald Trump has previously proposed eliminating the federal income tax and replacing it with tariffs on imported goods. He has argued that tariffs once fully funded the U.S. government in the 19th century, a period he described as an era of significant prosperity.

US SEC Remains Silent on XRP, SOL, & ADA Roles, Clarifies John Deaton
Amid speculation about the future of XRP, SOL, and ADA in the US, reports suggest that the US SEC has released details about their potential roles under President Donald Trump. However, XRP lawyer John Deaton set the record straight, stating that the regulator hasn’t shared any such information. Did US SEC Release Details on Crypto Roles? John Deaton Weighs In According to recent reports, the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has released details on the potential roles of altcoins such as XRP, SOL, and ADA within the government. Reportedly, XRP is recognized as suitable for state-level financial transactions. Its primary goal is to optimize government payments and enhance interbank liquidity. Meanwhile, ADA is deemed ideal for academic credentialing, smart contracts for government services, and secure infrastructure management. At the same time, SOL may be used for high-speed blockchain applications. These includes real-time government databases, secure voting mechanisms, and digital identity management. However, XRP lawyer John Deaton dismissed these rumors asserting that the SEC still remains silent on the potential roles of these assets under the Trump government. He stated, “The SEC did not release any such thing.” US SEC Acknowledges XRP as a Strategic Financial Asset Reportedly, the US SEC acknowledged XRP as a strategic financial asset. The official website of the US SEC published a document entitled “Comprehensive Proposal: XRP as a Strategic Financial Asset for the US,” which explained how XRP is poised to play a pivotal role in the US financial landscape. The regulator also proposed the potential roles of other cryptocurrencies too. The document read, Solana and Cardano should be integrated into U.S. digital infrastructure but not included in the reserve strategy. Instead, they enhance efficiency and security for state applications, while XRP remains the key asset for financial transactions. While some claim this as the SEC’s clarification on the potential roles of these assets in the US government, John Deaton denies it. He has disputed the claim, stating that the regulator has not released any such clarification. This denial has sparked confusion and debate among crypto enthusiasts, highlighting the need for official confirmation from the US SEC. This comes following John Deaton’s recent endorsement of Bitcoin amid the BTC vs XRP war. He highlighted Bitcoin’s potential, pointing out the significance of holding BTC in one’s portfolio. Community Seeks Clarity on SEC Proposal, Appreciates John Deaton Notably, John Deaton’s post gained widespread attention as it provides clarity to the prevailing rumors about the SEC’s clarifications on XRP, SOL, and ADA. This development comes on the heels of Trump’s decision to include these altcoins, along with Bitcoin, into the US reserve. Many remain concerned about the circulating misinformation. Meanwhile, XRP lawyer Bill Morgan reinforced Deaton’s claim stating, “Where does it come from. Endless false information.” Following John Deaton’s clarification, the community acknowledged that the document on the SEC’s website is merely a proposal submitted by someone. They believe that it might not be authored by the SEC itself. This development highlights the importance of verifying information through reputable sources to avoid spreading misinformation.
