Who Won the U.S. Presidential Debate?

Meme coin leaders Dogecoin DOGE/USD and Shiba Inu SHIB/USD have rallied 4.5% and 8% after the announcement of a 50-basis points rate cut in interest rates.

What Happened: Interest rate cuts have prompted crypto traders to predict bullish momentum for the cryptocurrency markets.

Crypto trader Javon Marks reaffirmed his call for a 470% bullish run for Shiba Inu, with the first target at $0.000081. He added that the current breakout could be "the catalyst for significant upside movement towards the meeting of this target."

Crypto trader Kevin says Dogecoin is a few weeks away from completing its first golden cross in more than four years. In another tweet, he added that Dogecoin is "ready to moon" soon and he has the data to support it. He predicted,

"If we get a true bull this cycle then my price targets are .93 cents (Good performance) – $2.27 (Huge outperformance) – $3.80 (Astronomical performance)."

Crypto Yapper noted Dogecoin has a falling wedge formation on the daily chart nearing an apex. He sets his breakout target at $0.20.
