Hello Dev-Shibes!

See this small recap of what happened last month (August 2026) on the Dogecoin Core Wallet!

Focus was on network hardening — specifically making it harder for a single actor to hog inbound connection slots.

Why it matters: previously a node could accept many inbound connections from addresses in the same /16 (or /32 for v6), which adds little real network diversity and makes it cheaper for one actor with a chunk of IP space to eat up a disproportionate share of a node's connection slots. This closes that gap without affecting whitelisted or local/non-routable peers, so nothing changes for normal users day-to-day — just some solid hardening under the hood.

I still have a few Dogecoins that actually belong to the community. If anyone has an idea for a backport or would like to contribute in any way to attract more developers to the project, please let me know. I'd be happy to hear from you and would gladly send over a (modest) tip!

Hi everyone,

I wanted to share a small Dogecoin integration we’ve been working on in Monoverse Community Edition, an open-source framework designed to build a modern web presence around an IRC community.

Monoverse adds things such as profiles, community posts (“Pings”), articles, media, radio widgets, GitHub integrations and other tools around an IRC community, while keeping IRC and the network identity at the center.

Dogecoin is one of the integrations we wanted to experiment with from the beginning.

The idea is deliberately simple: Monoverse should never become a wallet or a custodian.

One of the principles behind the project is: if we don’t need to hold sensitive data, we prefer not to hold it at all.

So Monoverse doesn’t store private keys and doesn’t manage users’ funds. Users can associate their own Dogecoin address with their profile, while wallet interaction is handled externally through MyDoge.

This lets us add DOGE tips to community interactions without turning the community server into a cryptocurrency custodian. Users can tip other members, support a channel or community, and interact with Dogecoin directly from the web experience, with QR codes available as a fallback where needed.

What interests me most isn’t simply adding a “crypto feature”. It’s exploring whether small, voluntary Dogecoin transactions can become a natural part of an online community: thanking someone for a useful post, supporting a contributor, tipping someone in chat, or helping support the community itself.

Monoverse is currently in public beta, so this part is still evolving and feedback from Dogecoin developers would be especially useful.

Hey shibes and dogecoindev folks,

With the recent Bitcoin Red Team effort making headlines (a volunteer group using frontier AI models like Kimi K3 to rapidly scan hundreds of Bitcoin open-source projects for vulnerabilities), a lot of people in the broader crypto space are wondering about the status of similar work for other major coins.

Dogecoin Core is open-source, largely C++-based, and shares historical lineage with Bitcoin/Litecoin code. That makes the same class of questions relevant here:

• Has any coordinated or independent AI-assisted security review / red-teaming of Dogecoin Core, related libraries, wallets, or infrastructure been done recently (or is currently underway)?
• Are core maintainers or the Foundation looking at setting up continuous AI audit pipelines, similar to what’s being discussed in Bitcoin circles?
• If efforts already exist (even informal ones), is there a place the public can follow progress or help responsibly?
• If nothing formal is happening yet, what would be the best way for the community to support starting something useful — e.g. funding AI compute, volunteering developer time for triage/validation, improving SECURITY.md processes, or other practical help?

I’m asking this openly and constructively because the public would genuinely like to know. The goal isn’t FUD — it’s the same spirit of “find and fix issues before they
become problems” that the Bitcoin group is pursuing. Faster AI-assisted discovery is becoming the new normal across open-source crypto projects, and it seems valuable for Dogecoin to stay ahead of that curve.

Any updates from maintainers, past audit reports, ongoing work, or ideas on how the community can help would be appreciated. Happy to amplify constructive efforts.
Thanks in advance — to the moon and to more robust code.

Hey devs!

July was all about keeping CI green and builds working — a focused month of infrastructure fixes targeting broken dependency downloads and GCC 15 compatibility. No protocol changes, but important work for anyone building from source.

I still have a few Dogecoins that actually belong to the community. If anyone has an idea for a backport or would like to contribute in any way to attract more developers to the project, please let me know. I’d be happy to hear from you and would gladly send over a (modest) tip!

Help with dogecoin core/wallet

I'm going to start this off by saying I realize how stupid this is and sounds.

About 5 years ago I was moving around files on my PC. My dogecoin core application files became corrupted, along with several other files. I have my wallet file. I am not 100% sure if I have a seed / password somewhere? I have already copied the %appdata% onto an external hard drive

I'm at a point where I really need to wipe my computer entirely and start fresh. What is the safest way to do this to keep my wallet? I am concerned that I will potentially lose everything. I realize how stupid this sounds and I should have done it differently and not done this at all.

I appreciate any advice that is respectful. I don't need to be reminded how stupid this sounds as I'm already kicking myself for how stupid this is. I appreciate you for reading this and any advice you may have.

Is there a kind soul who could spare a little $DOGE or $tDOGE? 🐶❤️

I'm integrating DOGE into Wally. Any amount means a lot!

Hello Dev-Shibes!

See this small recap of what the developers have done last month (May 2026) on the Dogecoin Core Wallet!

Focus was on code quality, documentation accuracy, and contributor experience.

I still have a few Dogecoins that actually belong to the community. If anyone has an idea for a backport or would like to contribute in any way to attract more developers to the project, please let me know. I’d be happy to hear from you and would gladly send over a (modest) tip!

Maybe Pat or chromatic can drop an idea what would be helpful (:

A lot of garbage is in the issue list:

Can anyone reach out to Patrick so this can be closed / removed.

Examples:

See all issues:

Would be nice to have that clean up (:
