Crypto Could See ‘One Last Leg Up’
Cryptocurrencies could see “one last minor leg up” before “things get dicey again,” according to Justin Bennett. The cryptocurrency trader said that the $1.15 trillion level is the one to watch out for in terms of total market capitalization. The analyst said for now the total market cap was above the $1.05 trillion support mark.
DOGE Continues To Consolidate
The meme cryptocurrency was seen printing a double inside bar pattern as it consolidated on Monday, according to Benzinga’s Melanie Schaffer. The meme coin could be forming a bull flag pattern on its daily chart, according to Schaffer. The cryptocurrency has resistance above the $0.083 mark and just below the $0.10 mark. There is support for DOGE between the $0.065 and $0.057 levels.

DOGE On The Web
Dogecoin-oriented Twitter handle Mishaboar expressed agreement with Ethereum co-creator Vitalik Buterin on calling out scammers. Markus too interacted with Buterin on the matter and shared his opinion on the matter.
I agree. After proper due research, of course. https://t.co/UptY3s9iIl

Dogecoin Foundation Director Timothy Stebbing reflected on the “regular crypto-bro/ICO” scene and said that opensource devs building “a legitimate, [decentralized] replacement for the global financial hegemony, without a 'revenue model' just a bunch of hopes and dreams doesn't compute.”
Folk are so familiar with the regular crypto-bro/ICO scene that a scrappy bunch of opensource devs building a legitimate, decentalised replacement for the global financial hegemony, without a 'revenue model' just a bunch of hopes and dreams doesn't compute.
