Ethereum Targets ₱180,770 ($3,000) as SHIB and DOGE Struggle to Break Free
Ethereum has formed an ascending support trendline while building a base between ₱120,513 ($2,000) and ₱132,565 ($2,200). Shiba Inu and Dogecoin remain trapped in downtrends, each requiring different catalysts to break their current consolidation patterns.
Key Takeaway
Ethereum's technical setup improves while meme coins need fresh capital and sentiment shifts to break their downtrends.
Ethereum is beginning to show signs of structural recovery after months of continuous downward pressure, and analysts now see a move toward ₱180,770 ($3,000) as plausible. The cryptocurrency has formed an ascending support trendline in March while building a base between ₱120,513 ($2,000) and $2,200.
The 50 EMA has historically served as a short-to-midterm trend validator, and a clean break and hold above it would mark the first major bullish confirmation in months. If Ethereum turns that level into support, it will serve as a dynamic floor for continuation and become a trustworthy indicator of future growth. The immediate resistance zone sits between $2,400 and $2,600.
Shiba Inu remains below its local resistance zone after months of lower highs, with the RSI indicator sitting in the low-50s range. For SHIB to truly come back to life, there must be a clear break above the existing wedge resistance and a discernible volume increase. SHIB is highly dependent on sentiment cycles and does not move in a vacuum—external catalysts like increased market strength, a resurgence of interest in meme assets, or a change in speculative capital are needed.
Dogecoin has consolidated between $0.09 and $0.10 over the last several weeks, with its 50 EMA, 100 EMA, and 200 EMA all positioned above the price and sloping downward. The notion of removing a zero from Dogecoin's price is becoming more impractical given the state of the market, as the cryptocurrency is trapped in a structural downtrend. In the past, social hype, coordinated retail flows, or macro-driven liquidity surges were the catalysts that propelled DOGE's explosive rallies, but none of these exist on a large scale as of April 2026. Dogecoin continues to be inflationary, making upward pressure difficult to sustain without fresh speculative capital entering the market.
