Thumzup Media Corporation (NASDAQ: TZUP), a company tied to the Trump family, has provided a $2.5 million loan to DogeHash Technologies to expand Dogecoin mining. The financing will fund more than 500 new ASIC units, lifting DogeHash’s fleet above 4,000 miners.
“We are enthusiastic about all the recent developments in the Dogecoin ecosystem and are looking forward to working with DogeHash to build a premier Doge mining company together,” Robert Steele, chief executive officer of Thumzup, noted.
Thumzup Doubles Its Investment in Dogecoin Ecosystem
The crypto treasury company backed by the Trump family has in the recent past made strategic investments in Dogecoin.
Some of the notable investments in the Dogecoin ecosystem include:
- Plan to wholly own DogeHash: In mid-August 2025, Thumzup announced plans to wholly acquire DogeHash in an all-stock transaction.
- Implementing Dogecoin treasury: In mid-September, Thumzup announced its acquisition of 7.5 million tokens valued at about $2 million.
- Appointing DogeOS CEO Jordan Jefferson to its crypto advisory board: In mid-September 2025, Thumzup announced the appointment of Jefferson to its crypto advisory board. Notably, Jefferson was an early Bitcoin investor and co-founded DogeOS
Dogecoin Hashrate Outlook
Dogecoin’s hashrate has held steady in recent weeks at around 2.93 PH/s, according to CoinWarz. The addition of more than 500 ASIC miners from DogeHash is expected to help lift network security and improve stability.
For a proof-of-work chain like Dogecoin, sustained hashrate growth remains critical for keeping the network resistant to potential 51% attacks.
Community Growth and ETF Speculation
The Dogecoin network, which has more than 7 million on-chain holders, has more chances of remaining the top memecoin by market cap.

DOGE Price Outlook for October 2025
Dogecoin has faced repeated rejections near the $0.28 resistance level across the past three months. The token closed September at $0.23 before rebounding to $0.244, up 6% in 24 hours, per TradingView.
Analysts say that if DOGE can break above $0.28, the next target sits near $0.50. Until then, the risk of further consolidation below $0.24 remains.
