The whale purchases come at a time when the Dogecoin community is expecting a price pump this month. The Dogecoin developers teased a new announcement as the meme-coin’s price nears the $0.1 mark.

The team is currently working towards the launch of ‘libdogecoin 0.1.2’. The new launch will focus on making integrations rapid for DOGE developers. However, whether DOGE will spike in price after the launch is a game we will have to wait and watch.
