Baby Doge To Launch On Solana, Establish Bridges To ETH and BNB
Baby Doge, a dog-themed meme cryptocurrency inspired by Dogecoin, has once again turned heads across the cryptocurrency landscape. Following the token’s recent renouncement of ownership on Ethereum and BNB Chain, the coin has now cleared the waters to expand its ventures to Solana.
A recent post shared on X pointed out that the meme coin’s proposal to deploy the BabyDoge token on the Solana network has officially passed. This sets the stage for the next phase of developmental upgrades for the meme coin’s successful deployment on one of the most renowned blockchains.
BabyDoge To Deploy On Solana: Here’s Everything
According to a post shared by the meme coin’s community today, June 8, the proposal on snapshot.org has officially passed, with the odds drastically tipping in favor of it. Notably, 100%, or 2668 trillion community members, voted ‘yes.’
The next phase in development is research, followed by developing, testing, and deployment phases. This ensures the smooth transition of a Solana-compatible BabyDoge token smart contract on the planned network after complete testing. Simultaneously, token bridges, initiating bridges between ETH, BNB Chain, and Solana, will also be available.
Why Solana?
Today’s post also shed light on the strategic decision to expand on Solana. Compared to Ethereum, Solana offers more cost-effective transactions, making it a more attractive option. Additionally, not all tier 1 centralized exchanges support BNB Chain, further solidifying Solana’s appeal. These factors played a crucial role in the decision to expand Baby Doge on Solana.
Following the successful deployment of BabyDoge on the network, transaction speed is expected to be 65,000+ TPS. The fees will also be lowered to $0.00025 per transaction.
These factors appear to have offered the crypto’s community a great appeal to pass the proposal. However, BabyDoge’s price slumped at press time, stirring speculations despite the optimistic development.

BabyDoge Price Tumbles
As of writing, BabyDoge’s price dipped 8% in the past 24 hours and is currently trading at $0.000000001814. The token’s 24-hour bottoms and highs are $0.000000001814 and $0.000000001975, respectively.
The tumbled price movement primarily aligns with the broader crypto market’s waning price trend today. As the market recovers, a potential price rally may kick in for the meme coin.

The US government’s strategic crypto reserve has been a hot topic of discussion, sparking expert opinions and debates. While President Donald Trump has already signed an executive order for a Bitcoin reserve, the fate of XRP, SOL, and ADA hangs in balance. However, the Trump administration’s upcoming disclosure of its crypto holdings is expected to bring clarity to the inclusion of altcoins in the US reserve.
Notably, the US Department of the Treasury and other government agencies are expected to expose their Bitcoin and other crypto holdings this week. Let’s unveil this crucial move’s potential implications on the US crypto and financial landscapes.
US Government To Disclose BTC and Crypto Holdings
In a recent X post, Bitcoin Magazine CEO David Bailey unveiled a crucial event on April 5, 2025, which is poised to revolutionize the US financial economy. According to Bailey’s post, the US government is set to complete a comprehensive audit of the country’s Bitcoin holdings this Saturday. Bailey said, “Depending on what we learn, might answer many of the open questions about the recent price action.”
The upcoming audit will provide a detailed inventory of the government’s Bitcoin portfolio, held across federal agencies. It will also provide insights into the collection of other cryptocurrencies like XRP, SOL, and ADA. Thus, this audit could also provide clarity into the possibility of including these altcoins in the US crypto reserve.
How Will the Audit Impact the US Crypto Reserve?
For context, President Donald Trump proposed a strategic crypto reserve to include XRP, ADA, and SOL in the US reserve. This development came amid growing speculations of the adoption of Bitcoin as a reserve asset.
Significantly, Trump’s move invoked criticism, with Bitcoin maximalists questioning the legitimacy of other cryptocurrencies to be a national reserve.
Though Trump signed an executive order for establishing a BTC reserve, there is still uncertainty surrounding the altcoin reserve. However, the US government’s decision to reveal its crypto holdings could bring transparency and clarity to the nation’s digital assets. The audit may also shed light on the potential developments within the government and its decision on altcoin reserves.
US Government’s BTC Holdings: A Closer Look
According to Arkham Intelligence data, the US government currently boasts a total of 198,012 BTC worth around $16 billion. As per crypto czar David Sacks’ statement, the US government has seized approximately 400,000 Bitcoin through civil and criminal asset forfeitures over the past decade.
Though the US government’s Bitcoin holdings are well-documented, its altcoin portfolio is still shrouded in uncertainty. Nonetheless, experts believe that the audit has the potential to clarify the government’s altcoin holdings and reserve management strategies.

XRP price has come under strong selling pressure with more than 13% drop on the weekly chart, and is currently facing a make-or-break situation, flirting around $2 level. Following yesterday’s low at $2.03, the Ripple crypto has seen a brief bounce back above $2.11, however, it remains to be seen whether this bullish sentiment can sustain moving ahead from here onwards.
XRP Price Faces Crucial Test as MVRV Indicator Tanks
The Market Value to Realized Value (MVRV) ratio for XRP has dropped below its 200-day moving average, a key indicator that could suggest a macro trend shift in price action, reported crypto analyst Ali Martinez.
This crossover is often seen as a bearish signal, indicating that XRP price may be entering a new phase of market movement. Analysts are closely observing whether this dip is the start of a broader downtrend or signals a potential accumulation phase for investors. However, market analysts are hopeful of the 125% in XRP options trading volumes, with some expecting a potential bounce back to $2.5.
Ripple Crypto In A Make-or-Break Situation
As of press time, the XRP price is showing signs of recovery from yesterday’s bottom at $2.03 with daily trading volumes pumping 35% to more than $4.0 billion. However, per the Coinglass data, the XRP futures open interest is showing mild movement at 0.7%, showing no clear directional signs.
XRP has rebounded from the $2.03 support level and is moving upward, however, a sustained breakout above the trendline resistance of $2.30 is crucial to target $2.91.
If XRP fails to hold above $2.03, major support levels are positioned at $1.79 and $1.56, which could determine the next directional move. Traders are closely watching price action for confirmation of a bullish breakout or potential downside risk. If the Ripple crypto defends $2, some market analysts are predicting a 600% XRP rally from here.
Will Ripple Lawsuit Delay Play the Spoilsport?
Despite Ripple and US SEC agreeing on no further cross appeal in the XRP lawsuit, chances of an imminent settlement in this case seem low. An XRP advocate recently suggested that the SEC would not issue an official announcement regarding the XRP lawsuit until August 7, citing a court ruling as the basis for the claim.
However, former SEC attorney Marc Fagel dismissed the assertion, calling it “stupid and wrong,” sparking debate within the crypto community.

Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson says the network will play a key role in Bitcoin DeFi transactions in the future. With several partnerships and innovations in the works, Hoskinson says Cardano is bracing itself to explore layer 2 solutions on the Bitcoin blockchain,
Cardano Positions Itself For Bitcoin DeFi
In an interview with Scott Melker, Cardano’s founder has revealed ambitious plans for the network to turbocharge Bitcoin’s adoption for DeFi applications. Hoskinson notes that large financial institutions will trigger a demand for Bitcoin DeFi given their fiduciary obligation to create yield.
He notes that a Bitcoin ETF providing DeFi yields will trigger shareholders to demand similar yields. Hoskinson eyes a three-year timeframe for institutions to plant their feet in Bitcoin DeFi and UTXO DeFi.
Hoskinson says Cardano will combine Hydra with the Bitcoin Lightning network and build a trustless recursive bridge between both networks. The founder adds that its Aiken programming language will enabled to write both Bitcoin and Cardano scripts.
Furthermore, a partnership with Maestro, an infrastructure provider allowing Bitcoin integration with UTXO-based blockchain will provide a “turn-key experience” for users.
“It’s still early days but we are making methodical progress every step of the way,” said Hoskinson.
Hoskinson is moving on from his absence from the Crypto Summit at the White House, doubling down on technical innovation. He notes that the Bitcoin-focused plays by Cardano will not adversely affect the network’s road map.
Is Bitcoin Ready For DeFi Applications?
Hoskinson revealed in the interview that Bitcoin is ready for DeFi utility following the Taproot and the Lightning Network advancements. According to the founder, Taproot added programmability features to the Bitcoin network and Cardano will push the frontiers.
He adds that Cardano will enable Bitcoin users to engage in DeFi transactions while transacting with only BTC. Hoskinson says a merger between Bitcoin is enough to make Cardano’s DeFi significantly larger than Ethereum and Solana combined.
While the integration will send Cardano price soaring, ADA wallows at $0,6611 after losing 10% in a week. However, traders are targeting an ADA pump in May following the forming of a cyclical pattern.
An analyst argues that a price rally to $10 is not a crazy prediction given a streak of solid fundamentals and partnerships for Cardano.
