Crypto analyst Kevin (@Kev_Capital_TA) reaffirmed his bullish outlook for Dogecoin, stating in a live stream that a surge to $1 is “absolutely” possible this cycle—provided a critical set of macro and market conditions fall into place. Kevin, a rising voice in crypto technical analysis, outlined his thesis in detail, highlighting Dogecoin’s resilience against Bitcoin and its technical structure as key signals of strength. “We were accumulating a spot position in the Patreon at 14 cents. I think the average is 15—right at 15 cents even,” he said. “Congratulations if you got into that play with me. Looking really, really nice.” The $1 Dogecoin Dream He pointed to Dogecoin’s breakout from an inverse head-and-shoulders pattern and its current consolidation within a potential bull flag as technical proof that momentum is building—if Bitcoin cooperates. “If Bitcoin continues to break higher, then this will break higher,” Kev noted. “If Bitcoin fails, then this will not break higher. It will fail.” That correlation underpins Kev’s broader framework for altcoin evaluation, which puts Bitcoin’s macro structure and USDT dominance at the center of any serious analysis. “You don’t really want to be doing too much individual TA on altcoins when Bitcoin dominance is at 64%. You’re not going to get very accurate TA,” he said. Still, Dogecoin stands apart from the altcoin pack. Kev showed Doge/BTC strength as a key differentiator: “Doge versus BTC is holding up much better than a lot of other altcoins. Litecoin versus Bitcoin? Dying. UNI, AVAX, DOT, LINK—all dying. Doge is still holding up. That’s why I own it. That’s my baby right there.” As for the $1 price target, Kev didn’t mince words, but made it clear it’s not just about charts. “It actually would be pretty shocking if it didn’t hit a dollar—again, contingent on Bitcoin heading higher,” he said. “But you need a sustained bull run. You need good monetary policy. You need a good macroeconomic environment.” Kev criticized the simplistic analysis plaguing the crypto space, pushing back on the idea that Dogecoin will moon just because “this happened last cycle.” Instead, he emphasized the importance of understanding economic conditions, inflation trends, Federal Reserve policy, and liquidity access. “We’re coming out of a macro environment the likes we’ve never seen before,” he said, referencing the Fed’s historic post-COVID tightening cycle and the uncertainty introduced by new US trade tariffs. “Dogecoin can hit a dollar. However, would I say that we have the exact environment we want to say that’s a highly probable scenario? I’d say we’re getting there—but we need more.” He also downplayed the idea that a potential Dogecoin ETF approval would be a decisive catalyst, unless it happens during a full-blown bull market. “If it happens and everything’s quiet… it probably won’t do its thing,” he warned. “Crypto’s about timing.” In closing, Kev reiterated the disciplined mindset he teaches his community. “Don’t just pull up an altcoin chart and say, ‘Well, this bull flag says we’re going to 32 cents,’” he said. “Watch Bitcoin. Watch USDT dominance. Then look at your pairing charts. Only then should you touch the Doge/USD chart.” With a deeply technical roadmap, macroeconomic awareness, and a data-driven approach, Kev made one thing clear: Dogecoin’s path to $1 isn’t hopium—it’s a real possibility, if the market allows it. At press time, DOGE traded at $0.241. Featured image created with DALL.E, chart from TradingView.com

Opinion by: Ahmad Shadid of O.xyzSemiconductors scored a rare exemption from US President Donald Trump’s aggressive reciprocal tariffs, but the relief is symbolic at best. Most semiconductors enter the US embedded in servers, GPUs, laptops, and smartphones. The finished goods remain heavily tariffed, some with duties reaching up to 49%. The exemption looks good politically but delivers little practical benefit. Nvidia’s DGX systems, crucial for training advanced AI models, do not fall under the exempted HTS codes. Nvidia could pay effective tariffs nearing 40% on these vital components. Such costs threaten to stall critical AI infrastructure projects across the country. Semiconductor tariffs may compromise the goal of the CHIPS Act. The act promised tens of billions of dollars in subsidies to support domestic chip manufacturing. Yet advanced lithography machines — key equipment from countries like the Netherlands and Japan — face 20%–24% tariffs. Ironically, tariffs designed to boost American production increase the cost of essential manufacturing equipment.The effect of new tariffs is already slowing progress in critical supply chains — just as generative AI and large language models are gaining momentum across sectors like finance and defense. Any delays or cost increases now could blunt America’s technological advantage.Indirect costs undermine exemptions for AIModern semiconductor supply chains are global and highly integrated. An exemption on raw silicon means nothing when servers, GPUs and other finished products face steep tariffs. Tariffs indirectly inflate costs, eliminating any competitive advantage from domestic manufacturing.Indirect tariff costs hit high-end systems disproportionately hard. The effect ripples through AI model training, data center expansions and major infrastructure projects, significantly slowing the industry’s momentum.Tariff impasse halts investmentSo far, it’s clear that the US president’s tariff plan didn’t follow any conventional economic trends or calculated strategy. The uncertain tariff situation stalls investment decisions across the technology sector. Companies need predictable costs to justify large capital expenditures. Ongoing tariff volatility prevents them from committing resources to new data centers and manufacturing lines.This mirrors the supply chain chaos of 2020. At that time, uncertainty caused massive order cancellations and slowed industry recovery for years. If tariff ambiguity continues, we could see similar waves of cancellations in 2025. This would further compound existing inventory and revenue issues in the semiconductor sector.Domestic production is not optimalThe border argument for these tariffs is that they’re meant to boost domestic production. They do little, however, to encourage genuine domestic semiconductor production. Despite subsidies under the CHIPS Act, most US semiconductor companies still rely on international foundries for manufacturing. Instead, they face increased equipment and operational costs.Recent: How trade wars impact stocks and cryptoThe idea that tariffs promote domestic production ignores the reality of global semiconductor manufacturing. Costs rise across the board, putting American companies at a disadvantage rather than offering protection.AI projects face heightened riskThe blockchain and crypto sectors, particularly AI-driven projects, also feel the pinch. Projects depend heavily on GPUs and high-performance servers for mining, validating transactions and running decentralized AI computations. Increased hardware costs directly affect profitability and growth, potentially stalling innovation in blockchain applications. AI developments have just started to pick up the pace in the blockchain and Web3 space. The industry saw increased interest from investors and VCs just a year ago. So, they are still on tighter budgets. Elevated costs can, however, lead to stagnation. We might see innovators and developers exiting the market. The ripple effect extends beyond the general technology sector and could threaten future digital economies. Moreover, these cost pressures disproportionately affect startups and smaller tech firms. Industry giants can absorb additional expenses, but innovative, smaller players face existential threats. This dynamic risks stifling innovation at the grassroots level, harming the entire tech ecosystem.What to expect Semiconductors have momentarily escaped direct tariffs, but the exemption provides little benefit. Tariffs continue to hit finished products, driving up indirect costs across the industry. Instead of boosting domestic manufacturing, these tariffs create economic paralysis, stall critical infrastructure projects, and threaten America’s lead in AI innovation. Policymakers must acknowledge these realities and adjust their approach before irreversible damage is done to the nation’s technological future.Opinion by: Ahmad Shadid of O.xyz.This article is for general information purposes and is not intended to be and should not be taken as legal or investment advice.

Self-proclaimed as the ‘most memeable meme coin,’ $PEPE is one of the most prominent and culturally significant cryptos on the market today. Based on the iconic Pepe the Frog meme, $PEPE is the third biggest meme coin on the planet right now, with a total market capitalization of over $6B. In this article, we’ll take a quick look at $PEPE’s recent performance, discussing how it’s potentially shaping up for another era-defining rally. To help you make the most of Pepe’s reversal, we’ll also cover the newest Pepe-inspired meme coin, MIND of Pepe, an AI agent making waves in the industry right now. $PEPE Comfortably in Green Now As one of the best meme coins, pressure on $PEPE was immense after the token lost over 80% of its value in the slump after December 2024. After nearly a year, i.e., from March 2024 to March 2025, of no gains, $PEPE has finally found momentum. The green-bodied monster shot up over 68% in the second week of May, and it’s currently showing signs of rest, which is usually an early indication that the upside rally can continue. To splurge some technical analysis, $PEPE is forming an Inside Candle on the weekly chart. As mentioned above, this represents a pause in trading volatility before the trend continues in its most recent direction. Therefore, a break above last week’s high, i.e., $0.000015394, could see $PEPE reach and even surge past its all-time highs. It’s currently trading at $0.00001450, up over 70% in the last month. Naturally, rising $PEPE prices could very well result in happy days for other Pepe-inspired meme coins, too. With Pepe looking like a million bucks, it’s the perfect time to hunt for other promising altcoins with Pepe as their mascot.
