Popular Meme Crypto Asset Dogecoin Launches New Testnet To Drive DeFi Adoption

The unique memecoin, Dogecoin (DOGE), is now creating a decentralized ecosystem.

The Dogecoin developers have announced that the testnet edition of the new utility-targeted Dogechain fork is now open for developers to begin creating ahead of the official network launch.

The new DC native token will be airdropped to DOGE holders at an unknown date, and the snapshot data has also not been launched.

DOGE talks about funding the new ecosystem:

“Dogechain is nothing special [venture capital] distributed… Everything is transparent and distributed to the community first”.
