Biggest Movers: DOGE Surges as Elon Musk Launches X

DOGE Surges as Elon Musk Launches X

Dogecoin was one of Monday’s notable gainers, climbing by as much as 5%, following the news that Elon Musk was rebranding Twitter to X. Speculators believe the new platform will allow users to make crypto payments. XRP, on the other hand, fell to a ten-day low.

Dogecoin (DOGE)

Dogecoin surged by as much as 5% to start the week, as traders reacted to the news Twitter was rebranding to X.

Following the announcement, Twitter CEO Linda Yaccarino tweeted that “X is the future state of unlimited interactivity – centered in audio, video, messaging, payments/banking – creating a global marketplace for ideas, goods, services, and opportunities. Powered by AI, X will connect us all in ways we’re just beginning to imagine.”

DOGE/USD hit an intraday high of $0.07718 earlier in the day, following Sunday’s low at $0.07056.

From the chart, the move came after a breakout occurred at the $0.0760 level, pushing the meme coin to its highest point since May 6.

This resulted in the relative strength index (RSI) escaping its own ceiling at 63.00, and it is currently at 65.46.

Traders will likely continue targeting the $0.08000 level.

XRP

XRP plunged to a ten-day low on Monday, as market sentiment seems to have shifted bearish in recent days.

After surging to a high of $0.7506 on Sunday, XRP/USD has started the week at a low of $0.6901.

This is the lowest level the token has traded at since June 13, when price was trading below $0.5000.

As a result of the decline, the RSI edged below a floor of 57.00, and is currently at a reading of 56.72.

Should the index extend its drop under this point, bears will likely look to take XRP back towards $0.5600.

Fidelity Discusses Bitcoin as Portfolio Insurance — Could Soon Stand in ‘Stark Contrast’ to Path Fiat Currencies Take

Fidelity Digital Assets, a subsidiary of Fidelity Investments, says that bitcoin could be considered portfolio insurance. The firm notes that the cryptocurrency “may soon stand in stark contrast to the path that the rest of the world and fiat currencies may take — namely the path of increased supply, additional currency creation, and central bank balance sheet expansion.” Fidelity Says Bitcoin Could Be Portfolio Insurance Fidelity Digital Assets, a subsidiary of Fidelity Investments, recently published a research study titled “The Rising Dollar and Bitcoin.” The research outlines “how bitcoin could be considered portfolio insurance” as the rising dollar impacts global currency markets. “The strengthening U.S. dollar is wreaking havoc among other countries and may put pressure on the Federal Reserve to soon reverse its tightening monetary actions, something that has precedent based on 1985’s Plaza Accord,” Fidelity explained. In addition, “more monetary debasement may be needed to ...

Economists Discuss Russia, China Potentially Developing Gold-Backed Currency That Could Undermine US Dollar

Economists have weighed in on reports that China and Russia may be developing a new gold-backed currency that could undermine the U.S. dollar’s status as the world’s primary reserve currency. Russia and China May Be Developing Gold-Backed Currency Several experts have shared their views on Russia and China potentially creating a new gold-baked currency, Fox Business reported Saturday, emphasizing that China has been buying up huge quantities of gold while Russia was forced off the U.S. dollar due to sanctions imposed on the country following its invasion of Ukraine.

However, neither Russia nor China has officially confirmed plans for such a currency. Craig Singleton, senior fellow at the Foundation for Defense of Democracies and a former U.S. diplomat,...
