Crypto analyst Cantonese Cat (@cantonmeow) is describing the weekly Dogecoin/ USD chart as a technical beauty due to multiple indicators aligning at once. In the latest chart shared on X, several key features stand out, including a long-term diagonal trendline, converging 100-week and 200-week simple moving averages (SMAs), and a noteworthy Ichimoku Cloud setup. “I haven’t seen something this beautiful with this much confluence for a while,” the analyst notes. Why Dogecoin Looks ‘Beautiful’ Bullish A dominant downward-sloping diagonal trendline, drawn from Dogecoin’s historic 2021 peak of approximately $0.70, sets the tone for the chart’s structure. Since Dogecoin’s meteoric rise and subsequent fall in 2021, weekly candles have consistently responded to this diagonal, which has acted as a barrier to bullish advances and occasionally served as a place for price consolidation.

What are crypto ETP outflows? Crypto ETPs give exposure to digital assets via traditional financial instruments. When more money exits these products rather than entering them, it is known as an “outflow” rather than an “inflow” — i.e., more people are selling than buying. Crypto exchange-traded products (ETPs) hold crypto assets as their underlying commodity. The goal is for them to provide an exchange-traded investment for investors who want exposure to crypto without directly buying the digital assets. Many investors, particularly institutions, prefer this method, as it opens up crypto investing within traditional financial instruments. There is no need to venture into unregulated market areas or take responsibility for the security and safety of crypto assets. There are several types of crypto ETPs available, including exchange-traded funds (ETFs), exchange-traded commodities (ETCs) and exchange-traded notes (ETNs).

The essay, laced with vivid satire and underpinned by rigorous macroeconomic analysis, argues that the Fed’s recent shift in policy signals a structural return to fiat liquidity expansion—an environment historically beneficial to Bitcoin and other hard assets. “Powell proved last week that fiscal dominance is alive and well,” Hayes wrote. “Therefore, I am confident QT, at least regarding treasuries, will stop in the short to medium term… Bitcoin will scream higher once this is formally announced.” QE Returns, Fiat Dies, Bitcoin Flies Hayes centers his argument on the Federal Reserve’s March FOMC meeting, during which Chair Jerome Powell suggested that balance sheet […]
