What to do with DogeCoin folder 55gb

I am cleaning up space on my pc, I forgot that I had doge and that I set up a node and I dont even remember much of how it all works.

its 55gb. I dont know whats in it. Is it essential data to the community? is it all software to help support the chain but I can delete it without consequence?
Ill be honest, i didnt know much what I was doing then nor do i now. but I usually jump in to learn how to swim. I got distracted by life and just discovered an abandoned pool metaphorically.

Core Wallet Console Examples

Hey shibes!

If you ever wanted to get your feet wet with the Dogecoin Core Wallet console, have a look at this!

In this tutorial we will get the current block height (the latest block). Get it's blockhash - after this is what really identifies the block (check my chaintips post for more details). And with that hash we can get all details from the block:

Dogecoin Core Wallet Console

You can also run those queries with your dogecoin-cli, use rpc requests in python or - if you kind of hate yourself - run it in powershell, like I did using my public Dogecoin node:

Gosh I hate powershell, why am I doing this?

The powershell code used in the script:

# get current block count
$uri = "https://easypeasy.eastus.cloudapp.azure.com/api/blockchain/getblockcount"
$blockHeight = Invoke-RestMethod -Uri $uri
Write-Host "Current blockheight: " $blockHeight

# get the matching blockhash
$uri = "https://easypeasy.eastus.cloudapp.azure.com/api/blockchain/getblockhash/" + $blockHeight
$blockHash = Invoke-RestMethod -Uri $uri
Write-Host "Current blockhash: " $blockHash

# and finally the block
$uri = "https://easypeasy.eastus.cloudapp.azure.com/api/blockchain/getblock/" + $blockHash
$block = Invoke-RestMethod -Uri $uri
Write-Host "Block:"
$block | ConvertTo-Json

If you want more details on the dogecoin-cli or you have other questions - feel free to post them in this thread!

Cheers

Core Wallet: Change the third-party blockchain explorer

Did you know:

If you're a Dogecoin QT user, you can change the third-party blockchain explorer you use for transaction URLs?

Just go to: Settings -> Options -> Display Note: The default explorers, DogeChain and SoChain, are down for maintenance at the moment.

I know solo mining isn't profitable. I want to try it anyway. How?

Of the thirty or so guides I've read recently, every one has advised me to join a pool. That's fine; it's probably great advice. But let's say I don't want to, that I just want to play the great Doge Lotto on my own. How would I?

I've downloaded EasyMiner and run it in a pool for a while, but that's both boring and unprofitable, IMO. If I'm going to be unprofitable, I figure I might as well have a tiny chance of a win as opposed to a guaranteed loss.

Bear in mind: I'm new at crypto, and I'm mainly trying this for fun. Someone gave me a tip for one of my Sci-Fi stories in Doge and the low fees inspired me.

dogecoin Github

Does the current official release of dogecoin have a miner built in?

There is a miner file there, is this only for mining protocols related to the node or is it a working configurable miner?

https://github.com/dogecoin/dogecoin/tree/master/src

https://github.com/dogecoin/dogecoin/blob/master/src/miner.cpp

Anyone care to help me out with some config?

What are Chaintips

A chaintip, also known as a blockchain fork, in Dogecoin's network refers to a situation where the blockchain splits into two or more branches, resulting in multiple valid versions of the blockchain.

This can happen when miners produce different valid blocks at the same time, or when nodes receive conflicting blocks.

When this occurs, the network may temporarily have multiple versions of the blockchain, and nodes may have different views of the valid transaction history.

Chaintips can be resolved through a consensus mechanism, where nodes on the network agree on a single valid version of the blockchain by choosing the longest chain with the most cumulative proof-of-work.

This mechanism ensures that the network operates on a single, agreed-upon version of the blockchain, which prevents double-spending and maintains the integrity of the network.

Read all different types of blockchain forks here.

Response of my nodes getchaintips:

[
{
 "height":4618593,
 "hash":"06c7cf6b40a932459872737475e1dfff97929eeff14ae7dbbd374e6cf37e0620",
 "branchlen":0,
 "status":"active"
 },
{
 "height":4617354,
 "hash":"5e06b1019ac25bbf3f0d17ffd1aaf34443cb709ec196f834550a804874ac06ae",
 "branchlen":1,
 "status":"valid-fork"
 }, 
 ...
]

The actual blockhash of height 4617354 is c6af8c0ad4ba29723da112eeca26576c870d1d472bb32444d627dd230b4c28fa

How To: Customize User Agent

Hey community!

If you run a Dogecoin Full Node (Dogecoin Core Wallet) you maybe want to add a comment to your user agent like this:

Example of a user agent comment

To add this, all you need to do is adding this information to your dogecoin.conf (create it if it doesn't exist):

uacomment=_nformant

...and restart your Dogecoin Core Wallet.

You can find your dogecoin.conf here (if you use the default directory)

WindowsC:\Users\nformant\AppData\Roaming\Dogecoin
Linux~/.dogecoin/
macOS~/Library/Application Support/Dogecoin/

After that other nodes can see this comment, like blockchairs node explorer that maybe is connected to your node as well: https://blockchair.com/de/dogecoin/nodes

Please consider that all private data you publish can be used against you (i.e. if you are a well known whale and have your Doges stored on that Core Wallet... maybe you should not expose this information).

Also TipMyNode uses this technique - more details here!

Happy coding

Dogecoin on the Edge of Massive Explosion!

The token is gaining huge momentum against Bitcoin and expected to undergo a 100% upswing soon.

The DOGE price is in the process of breaking above the falling wedge, which is largely considered bullish. The price after a breakout may rise beyond $0.11 levels and test the crucial resistance at $0.14, slicing through the pivotal zones at $0.12.
