Consider an inifinte sequence $x_1, x_2,\dots$ of positive integers such that, for every integer $n\geq 1$: [list] [*]If $x_n$ is even, $x_{n+1}=\dfrac{x_n}{2}$; [*]If $x_n$ is odd, $x_{n+1}=\dfrac{x_n-1}{2}+2^{k-1}$, where $2^{k-1}\leq x_n<2^k$.[/list] Determine the smaller possible value of $x_1$ for which $2020$ is in the sequence.
