Dogecoin trades today at $0.09985 following a correction in the digital asset market. According to the Polymarket market prediction report for this year 2026, published on February 17, the probability of reaching $0.16 is 55%. This new Dogecoin price prediction for the end of this year depends strictly on the technical milestones achieved by the X platform.
Elon Musk recently confirmed that the financial infrastructure of his app has already successfully passed internal testing. Consequently, the payment ecosystem known as X Money will soon start its external beta testing phase. During a meeting with employees, Musk assured that the product will function as a global monetary transaction center, facilitating the flow of capital within a unified financial infrastructure for users.

Despite immediate technical weakness in the weekly charts, the asset’s social sentiment has rebounded significantly. Social media mentions have increased by 33 percent during the most recent trading sessions. Despite this, Nikita Bier clarified that the platform will not act as a crypto exchange, focusing exclusively on financial data tools and transactional links instead of direct brokerage services.
Unlike the purely speculative boom recorded in previous cycles, real utility has become the axis of value. The most iconic meme sector crypocurrency faces a structural shift toward micro-payment functionality. Since the derivatives market shows growing institutional interest, traders are prioritizing support stability over promises of immediate parabolic returns which characterized previous cycles in the industry.
The company has secured money transmitter licenses in more than forty American states to strengthen its regulatory framework. Therefore, the recent strategic partnership with the financial multinational Visa will allow digital wallet services to expand rapidly worldwide. This robust infrastructure seeks to replicate the successful WeChat model in the West, integrating communications, e-commerce, and finance into a single mobile application.
Will X’s infrastructure break Dogecoin’s technical resistance?
The next two months will be critical in determining if the asset breaks the psychological resistance of 0.117 dollars. Investors should closely monitor the launch of the external beta of the payment services on X. If mass adoption materializes, the growth scenario towards 0.20 dollars could strengthen considerably against the current uncertainty in the global fiat currency markets.
