Dogecoin Core [DOGE, Ð]

Dogecoin is a cryptocurrency like Bitcoin, although it does not use SHA256 as its proof of work (POW). Taking development cues from Tenebrix and Litecoin, Dogecoin currently employs a simplified variant of scrypt.

Installation 💻
Please see the installation guide for information about installing Dogecoin Core.
Such ports
Dogecoin Core by default uses port 22556 for peer-to-peer communication that
is needed to synchronize the "mainnet" blockchain and stay informed of new
transactions and blocks. Additionally, a JSONRPC port can be opened, which
defaults to port 22555 for mainnet nodes. It is strongly recommended to not
expose RPC ports to the public internet.
| Function | mainnet | testnet | regtest |
|---|---|---|---|

| RPC | 22555 | 44555 | 18332 |
