DOGE Jumps, TRUMP Targets $28, BlockDAG’s X1-X10 Miner Demo Ignites Presale Buying Rush
Three major market narratives are running hot this week: Dogecoin (DOGE) pushing higher, Official Trump (TRUMP) setting bold end-of-year goals, and BlockDAG (BDAG) locking in dominance before launch with a $374 million presale and the public reveal of its X1 and X10 mining solutions.
DOGE’s massive whale pickups are turning heads, TRUMP’s hold above $10 is fueling talk of a possible surge to $28, and BlockDAG’s mix of record fundraising, expanding miner network, and live product demos is keeping it front and center in market conversations.
While DOGE and TRUMP ride waves of sentiment and brand momentum, BlockDAG is building traction through hands-on tools, real partnerships, and a fast-growing mining base that’s already active before launch.
Whale Activity Fuels DOGE Price Rise
Dogecoin rose 6.5% to $0.24 in the 23 hours leading to August 13, powered by whale accumulation exceeding 1 billion DOGE (around $200M) and daily trading volume of 1.56B, almost three times the usual average. Early on, $0.23 acted as firm support, and a midday breakout cleared multiple resistance levels before cooling near $0.25.
Charts show a bull flag breakout alongside a golden cross on the daily timeframe, hinting at a potential run toward $0.30. Recent trading patterns suggest $0.24 is now holding as a short-term base, with repeated tests confirming the level.
Key triggers ahead include a firm push past $0.25, continued inflows from large holders, and preservation of the bullish technical setup. If buying strength stays intact, DOGE could remain one of the most active meme plays as the year winds down.
TRUMP Coin Eyes $28 With Bullish Setup
Built on Solana and linked to Donald Trump’s brand, TRUMP Coin saw an early-year price spike fueled by a viral campaign offering gala dinner access to top buyers. After peaking at $75.35 in January 2025, it dropped sharply to $7 before regaining stability above $10 in Q2.
Mid-August trading sees TRUMP at roughly $9.70 with a $1.94B market cap. Price ceilings sit between $9 and $9.5, with bullish targets at $12 for a potential Q3 climb to $16, and an optimistic path to $28 by year-end. A breakdown below $8.5 could bring a return to $7.
Longer-term estimates project possible highs of $42 in 2026, $63 in 2027, $94 in 2028, $141 in 2029, and $212 in 2030 if momentum holds. For 2025, analysts are split, with forecasts ranging from $17.78 to $27.92. Its memecoin hype and political branding could drive rallies, but sharp reversals remain a risk.
BlockDAG Expands Global Miner Network Before Launch!
BlockDAG’s presale is shaping up as one of 2025’s biggest crypto stories, racking up $374 million at a Batch 29 price of $0.0276. With its confirmed $0.05 launch price, early buyers from Batch 1 are already sitting on gains of 2,660%.
A major driver of its rapid adoption has been the X1 mobile miner app, now downloaded by over 2.5 million users worldwide. This app removes the high barrier of entry to mining, letting anyone generate BDAG directly from their smartphone, no costly rigs or technical setup required.
For those aiming for higher daily output, the X10 hardware miner delivers up to 200 BDAG a day and connects easily via Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, or Ethernet, making it plug-and-play for home or office use.
The live demonstration of both mining devices gave the market a firsthand look at BlockDAG’s technology in action, adding substance to its pre-launch buzz. Beyond tech, official partnerships with the Seattle Orcas (Major League Cricket) and Seattle Seawolves (Major League Rugby) will bring BDAG into the sports world through NFTs, fan engagement content, and stadium activations.
With a global mining network, proven product performance, and significant capital secured, BlockDAG is stepping into launch week with momentum that most projects struggle to achieve even after they list.
Closing Analysis
DOGE and TRUMP both have strong narratives: DOGE from accumulation trends, TRUMP from brand-driven forecasts. Yet both depend heavily on sentiment and outside events. BlockDAG is approaching launch with products in market, partnerships secured, and liquidity ready.
Its $374M presale, 2.5M active miners, and proven mining tech position it as one of the few pre-launch projects already demonstrating real-world use. For those tracking the most promising plays right now, BlockDAG offers a rare mix of speculative upside and operational backing.
If the upcoming launch matches the scale of its presale campaign, BDAG could move from a headline-making presale to a consistent top-tier performer, a shift few projects pull off successfully.
