Rally Fades, But Traders See Upside

Amsterdam-based cryptocurrency trader Michaël van de Poppe said the apex coin could touch the $30,000 mark next month, while the second-largest coin could touch the $2,500 level. 

Crypto Still In 2021 Mode

DOGE co-creator Billy Markus said that cryptocurrencies are acting as if they were still in 2021. Notably, DOGE shot up a whopping 3559.5% in that year. 

DOGE On The Web

Mishaboar, a DOGE-oriented Twitter handle, called upon graphics designers to assist DOGE developer Loladam who is working on a Simplified Payment Verification (SPV) wallet. The wallet is currently only functional via the terminal, according to Mishaboar.

SPV wallets aren't resource-intensive and are considered a good match for devices such as smartphones.
