1/ On Aug 13, 2022, a team of devs launched the #Dogechain.

Barely after 72hrs, 20,000+ wallets were created, and 200,000+ confirmed transactions!

Here’s what you need to know about it! 🐢

Dogechain’s infrastructure allows $DOGE holders to port their $DOGE into a blockchain, which allows more opportunities for using $DOGE!
3/ Dogechain presents to developers a platform to build #DeFi, #GameFi, #NFT platforms, and other dApps with DOGE as part of its core economic system.

Did we mention it’s EVM compatible as well?
