RECOVERY GUIDE
Have you asked a question in an existing thread but not gotten an answer yet? Please make a new post with your question:)
Please back your wallets up often
This is very important, your restore, should you need it, is only as good as your back up is.
Do not send your wallet.dat files or paper keys to other users.
These are the keys to all your coins. Giving these gives control of your coins to that person.
Double check wallet addresses when sending coins
Use good, strong and unique passwords

Resistance and Potential Breakout
According to market analyst Ali, Dogecoin is presently facing a significant resistance zone. This critical threshold spans from $0.166 to $0.171, a range where approximately 75,500 addresses hold nearly 10 billion DOGE. Overcoming this resistance could be pivotal for Dogecoin, potentially setting the stage for a substantial price increase.
Ali suggests that if this barrier is breached, DOGE could see its value double, with the next substantial resistance level projected around $0.322.

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.
Hello! I'm fairly new to Doge and I'm wondering if it's possible to mine Doge with an Android phone. I would like all possible info on this matter, thanks in advance!
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:
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!

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 have all my Dogecoin in a ledger wallet and would like to know how to sell some. Can anyone share information on how this is done?
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.
Hi,
Do you have dogechain support contact please?
Hey Doge Fans, I'd love to hear your opinion on our art project. We're developing a one-of-a-kind platform that allows anyone to create Doge art using their own photos. Your thoughts and feedback would be greatly appreciated!
I just bought 55$ xmr the other day and I'm probably going to buy more. That was first time I ever bought crypto. How can I buy doge with the xmr?
I have 0.3479521 xmr and I want to buy dogecoin with it. Is this enough to buy dogecoin and make a profit?
Doge trading at $0.08279
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?
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",

The actual blockhash of height 4617354

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)
Windows | C:\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

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.
Let's look back at some memorable moments and interesting insights from last year.
