Dogecoin prepares for upgrade with DogeOS testnet launch

The MyDoge wallet team has opened a public testnet for an EVM-compatible zero-knowledge rollup that brings smart contracts to DOGE.

Dogecoin was built as a joke, then became a payments coin, and is now auditioning for a role in decentralized finance. DogeOS, a new application layer from the team behind the MyDoge wallet, launched its public testnet on September 30, 2026. The testnet goes by the name Chikyū and runs on chain ID 6281
