On February 17, 2026, Solana-based launchpad Pump.fun introduced a Trader Cashback option that lets token creators redirect rewards away from the 0.3% Creator Fees toward active traders, with the choice locked in at launch. Terminal said Cashback Coins accrue on every trade. The rollout follows a 75.6% slide in monthly fees to $31.8 million in January from $148.1 million in January 2025.

On 14 February, TRUMP rebounded into a $3.57–$4.09 supply zone to reach $3.64, then fell 7.14% to $3.38. Despite a week-long rise in 1-hour OBV, a rejection near $3.6 and RSI below 50 point to bearish follow-through toward $3.29 and potentially $3.07.

DeepSeek AI outlines potential price paths for XRP, Pepe and Shiba Inu by late 2026, referencing current market levels and on-chain ecosystem trends. Its scenario analysis suggests XRP could approach $8, PEPE around $0.000024 and SHIB near $0.000115 if technical structures and adoption catalysts unfold favorably. These projections imply several-hundred-percent gains from recent prices but remain speculative and dependent on broader crypto conditions.

On February 17, 2026, Shiba Inu (SHIB) traded around $0.00000650–$0.00000659 after recovering the key $0.00000629 monthly support zone but still struggling to remove its fifth decimal zero. Despite a 31% rebound from the February 6, 2026 low of $0.00000500, indicators such as Chaikin Money Flow remain slightly negative and large holders are not accumulating aggressively. At the same time, a supply shift into self-custody and a positive Open Interest funding rate with a leveraged long-to-short ratio near 1:02 suggest futures traders, particularly on Binance, are positioning more bullishly even as spot buying power appears weak.

PIPPIN fell about 14% over the past 24 hours after a multi-month surge and a market cap peak above $750 million. The price is approaching $0.55, with a 50% retracement near $0.46 and a potential reaction zone at $0.269. Derivatives metrics show weakening longs as open interest dropped and funding turned negative.

Dogecoin's price has fallen about 3% over the last 24 hours, hovering around $0.099 and bringing the key $0.098 support zone into focus. Technical indicators show DOGE trading below major moving averages, with analysts warning that a break under $0.098 could open the way toward the $0.090–$0.088 area and even a potential retest of the yearly low near $0.08.

Dogecoin trades at $0.09985, up 0.02% over 24 hours, while prediction-market pricing suggests a cautious 2026 ceiling near $0.16. Probabilities span 78% for $0.06, 55% for $0.16, and 33% for $0.20. Elon Musk said X Money remains in internal testing with an external beta expected soon, and social mentions rose 33%.

SIREN cleared the $0.21 daily resistance and traded at $0.216 after an intraday high of $0.249, up 2.65% over the past 24 hours. Spot volume fell 55% to $18.70 million, while derivatives data show roughly $1.37 million in short-leveraged positions clustered near $0.231, setting the stage for a potential squeeze if upside persists.

MemeCore (M) surged more than 13.6% in 24 hours, lifting its market capitalization toward $2.5 billion as volume-backed speculative interest and anticipation for the MemeMax Phase 2 launch combined to fuel a sharp breakout in the niche Layer-1 sector. While technical momentum has returned and a test of the $1.65 resistance is now in focus, the absence of a singular fundamental catalyst leaves the move highly sensitive to broader market swings and potential profit-taking.

Shiba Inu ambassador Shytoshi Kusama said on Feb. 17, 2026 he will stream during a solar eclipse to outline a "new system" and revisit details Friday, with YouTube and X carrying replays. Earlier, SHIB marketing lead Lucie described a standalone Human Legacy AI platform, built over six months with 100,000+ lines of code, capped at 114,000 lifetime users and citing an internal $2M valuation.
