Crypto analyst Javon Marks has made an interesting prediction regarding Dogecoin, suggesting that the meme coin could skyrocket to $20 in this cycle. According to his technical analysis, DOGE has shown an impressive record of exponential growth in successive bull runs, and if this pattern continues, it could achieve a 306x increase or more this cycle. 

However, despite the historical trends, reaching such a price point comes with significant market cap implications that raise questions about the feasibility of this prediction.

Bullish Case For Dogecoin To $20

Dogecoin’s price action in the past 24 hours has been highlighted by a decline, which has been extending over the past seven days. Particularly, Dogecoin has retraced by about 6.5% and 24.8% in the past 24 hours and seven days, respectively. 

On the other hand, crypto analyst Javon Marks predicted that Dogecoin could, notwithstanding, still see its price increase by 306X this cycle. Javon Marks’ prediction is based on Dogecoin’s historical performance in previous cycles. In 2017, the altcoin experienced a 90x surge, while in 2021, the rally exceeded 306x. In 2017, DOGE experienced a 90x surge, while in 2021, the rally exceeded 306x and peaked at its current all-time high of $0.7316. 

Using this pattern as a basis, Marks suggests that another similar or greater increase could occur, pushing DOGE to new all-time highs of over $20. If Dogecoin were to reach this price point, it would mark an increase of about 85x from its current price of $0.24, which is in line with the 2017 returns. A 306x run, on the other hand, would put the Dogecoin price at $87.

Market Cap Constraints: Is A $20 DOGE Realistic?

For Dogecoin to reach $20, its market capitalization would need to increase significantly more than it did in the previous cycles. At the time of writing, Dogecoin’s market cap is sitting at $36 billion. An 85x surge would bring its total market to around $3 trillion, given the current total number of circulating tokens. If the asset were to follow the full 306x trajectory Marks suggests, its market cap would balloon to an astronomical $11 trillion.

One of the only feasible scenarios where Dogecoin could reach $20 is if Bitcoin itself undergoes an extreme bull run and reaches a valuation between $1 million and $2 million per BTC. In such a case, the overall crypto market could expand, allowing meme coins like DOGE to go on parabolic price gains. 

However, for Bitcoin to reach these levels, something dramatic would need to happen, like a massive capital injection into the crypto market. One of the speculated drivers is the idea that the US government could allocate trillions of dollars into a Bitcoin reserve. While such a move would undoubtedly trigger a historic rally across the broader crypto industry, this remains purely speculative at this point.

As the crypto market is regaining momentum following the recent turmoil, leading altcoins such as Ethereum are exhibiting significant signs of growth and renewed potential. Driven by historical data, analysts and experts remain optimistic that 2025 Q1 will be bullish for the Ethereum price.

Ethereum Price Awaits Huge Breakout, Targets $7.5K

Crypto enthusiast TraderPA took to the X platform to share a bullish view on the Ethereum price.  According to TraderPA’s analysis shared via an X post, Ethereum (ETH) is set to pump by 3x in 2025, targeting the ambitious $7.5k.

Similarly, Mister Crypto, another crypto analyst, predicted that a huge breakout would be inevitable for Ethereum. At the same time, trader Ted shared a long-term target for the Ethereum price. As per his analysis, Ethereum’s price could potentially surge to $5,000, $7,000, or even a more aggressive target of $10,000.

2025 Q1: A Bullish Quarter Ahead?

According to Crypto Rover, a prominent analyst, Q1 is usually bullish for Ethereum, especially during a bull market. Drawing on Ethereum’s successful price trends in the first quarters of 2017 and 2021, Crypto Rover forecasts a repeat of this historical pattern.

Interestingly, the Ethereum price which stood at $7 in January 2017 increased to $56 in March. Similarly, ETH saw a steep climb from $560 to $2,100 in 2021 Q1.

Ethereum Mirrors Bitcoin’s Rise: What To Expect?

As of press time, Bitcoin is exchanging hands at $97,555.74, marking a marginal increase of 0.67% over the last 24 hours. Meanwhile, Ethereum is still caught within the bearish trend, registering a daily drop of 0.75% and a weekly decline of 20.62%.

Nevertheless, both Bitcoin and Ethereum are displaying strong upside momentum, indicating a potentially bullish outlook. While Bitcoin is experiencing an upward push, Ethereum is following suit.

According to Merlijn The Trader, Ethereum is following Bitcoin’s 2016-2017 cycle to perfection. The analyst added that Ethereum is set for a parabolic move to new all-time highs if history repeats.

Increasing ETH Purchases Trigger Price Surge

Notably, the Ethereum price’s potential rally could be attributed to multiple factors, including massive ETH purchases. Amid the sensational Bitcoin ETF in-kind redemption procedures, asset manager BlackRock has acquired approximately $280 million in Ethereum ETFs.

In addition, investment firm Fidelity and President Donald Trump’s crypto project, World Liberty Financial, have also invested millions in Ether. Thus, it is obvious that these huge ETH purchases have significantly contributed to the Ethereum price’s possible bullish trajectory.
