Dogecoin is starting to attack with upward momentum as the entire crypto market starts to receive notable inflows, especially in the last 24 hours. This notable increase in inflow has seen Dogecoin’s price particularly surging by about 16% in the past 24 hours and the $0.40 price level now seems within reach again.

According to a technical outlook by crypto analyst Kevin (@Kev_Capital_TA), Dogecoin needs to clear a macro golden pocket around $0.49 in order to validate a stronger upward move to new all-time highs.

The Macro Golden Pocket At $0.49: The First Barrier

Crypto analyst Kevin recently shared his insights on X, highlighting Dogecoin’s critical resistance levels that must be cleared before the cryptocurrency can embark on a journey toward new all-time highs. With the use of Fibonacci extension levels projected from Dogecoin’s previous bear market low in 2022/2023, Kevin mapped out key price points por bulls, starting with the macro golden pocket at $0.49.

Kevin identified $0.49 as the “macro golden pocket,” the first major resistance zone Dogecoin must conquer to initiate a bullish breakout. This level represents a significant extension point in the Fibonacci indicator and sits around the 0.65 Fib. Interestingly, the $0.49 macro golden pocket served as the peak of Dogecoin’s intriguing rally in late 2024. Dogecoin’s rejection at $0.49 kicked off a correction, which eventually rebounded at the 0.382 Fib extension level.

Breaking through $0.49 would put Dogecoin at its highest price point in almost four years. This in turn would undoubtedly provide the strength for further upward momentum and give Dogecoin bulls the confidence to push the price higher.

Path To New All-Time Highs: Subsequent Resistance Levels At $0.53 And $0.59

Crypto analyst Kevin also highlighted key price points to keep an eye on when Dogecoin eventually breaks above the macro golden pocket at $0.49. Following a breakout at $0.49, the next critical resistance lies at $0.53, marked by another key Fibonacci retracement level at 0.703. 

Beyond $0.53, Dogecoin will face what Kevin described as the “final boss” at $0.59. Interestingly, this price point is also marked by another Fib extension level at 0.76. This level holds historical significance as a threshold before Dogecoin reached its current all-time high in 2021. The last time Dogecoin made a clean break above $0.59 at the 0.76 Fib extension, it took only a few days for it to reach its all-time high of $0.7316.

With this in mind, another clean break above $0.59 would pave the way for Dogecoin to challenge its previous all-time high and explore uncharted price territory.

At the time of writing, Dogecoin is trading at $0.389 and is up by 15.5% and 23.5% in the past 24 hours and seven days, respectively.

77 Bloody Codes: When the '$5 Wrench' Shatters the Privacy Myth of France's Crypto Elite

**Summary** In the first half of 2026, France recorded 77 violent crimes—including kidnappings, illegal confinement, and extortion—targeting cryptocurrency holders, a 71% increase over the 45 cases in all of 2025. This equates to an attack every 2.3 days, making France a global hotspot for so-called "wrench attacks," where criminals use physical violence to coerce victims into surrendering crypto assets. High-profile cases include the 2025 kidnapping of Ledger co-founder David Balland, who was shown with a severed finger in a ransom video, and an attempted kidnapping of the family of Paymium's CEO in Paris. Prosecutors note these are not isolated incidents but part of structured criminal networks, sometimes involving minors. Several factors contribute to France's vulnerability: a large holder base (approx. 7.3 million people), the presence of major crypto firms and executives, a culture of public disclosure among enthusiasts, and potential data leaks. The trend is spreading across Europe, which now accounts for over 40% of such global attacks. Research indicates a correlation between Bitcoin price surges and increased wrench attacks. In response, French Interior Minister Laurent Nuñez announced a three-pillar action plan focusing on enhanced intelligence sharing, deeper cooperation with the industry association Adan, and improved operational and cross-border coordination. Authorities have made over 200 arrests in the past year. Security experts warn that digital asset safety now extends to the physical world. They advise holders to use hardware wallets, avoid disclosing holdings on social media, enable multi-factor authentication, and report suspicious activity. The situation underscores the urgent need for the crypto community to shift from a "show-off" culture to one of discretion as physical security becomes paramount.

Both OpenAI and Anthropic are 'Developing Their Own Chips' — Beyond Cost, the Control Over Computing Power is Paramount

OpenAI and Anthropic are both advancing plans to develop custom AI chips, driven by the need to control computing power and reduce costs. According to reports, Anthropic is in early-stage development of its own chips and in talks with Samsung for manufacturing, while OpenAI is collaborating with Broadcom and TSMC, aiming to deploy its first inference chip by late 2026. The primary motivation extends beyond just lowering expenses. For these large model companies, chips are core production assets. By designing specialized hardware (ASICs) tailored to their specific model architectures—OpenAI's being more sparse and Anthropic's more dense—they aim to achieve deeper software-hardware co-design. This synergy can significantly improve inference speed, energy efficiency, and overall unit economics, offering advantages that off-the-shelf GPUs cannot. This move does not signify an immediate replacement for suppliers like Nvidia. The process from design to deployment takes 18-24 months, and Nvidia's GPU ecosystem remains deeply entrenched. Instead, custom chips provide a strategic alternative and negotiating leverage, allowing companies to use them for specific, high-volume workloads like inference while still relying on external GPUs and TPUs for other tasks. The trend reflects a broader industry shift where AI competition is evolving from pure algorithmic prowess to integrated control over the entire software-hardware stack. Companies like Google, Amazon, Meta, and Microsoft are already on this path. For foundries like Samsung, securing orders from AI leaders like Anthropic represents a significant opportunity to expand its footprint in the advanced semiconductor market for AI. Ultimately, the race for "computing sovereignty" is now a central battleground for major AI players.
