I get the feeling people will stop mining soon.
Take a look at coinwarz, it is pretty far down the list now. It is definitely not the most profitable coin to mine. Plus as buyers begin to dwindle and they have trouble selling coins...I really don't think they will continue much longer.
With everyone saying the coin is dead and with it not being profitable...miners should move on sooner than later. We may not even have to wait until halved block rewards to see a spike.
Also, take a look at the sales. The sales coming out are at 20k or less in volume. Meaning I doubt any investor or Doge enthusiast is selling at the moment, it is ALL miners. So if someone tells you people are panic selling, they are dead wrong.
