Three possibilities:
- there will be extreme pumping
- Doge/USD exchange possible
- near August (second block reward halving)

Do you think the  block halving next month is really going to make a difference? there is soooooo much DOGE out there  it just might send the miners off to the next hot coin. my guess is the price will rise as the date approaches and then a very real drop..you always sell on the good news ;-)

This was always going to tbe the problem wasnt it: Will the price double, or will the number of miners halve. I think the reality will be somewhere between the 2 with doge hitting maybe 220-240 again and net hash back down to 40-50Ghash but will see.
Biggest problem right now is still accessibility via fiat imo. Its all well and good getting these thousands of new users in play, but if theyre only receiving Doge via a tip of 100 here and there it really means very little. We need them laying down $10 - $100 each and having a proper valued interest in it rather than a passive one to keep momentum.
