DogeOS is nearing mainnet launch, with its founder confirming development and audits are complete, according to a report by The Block.
The EVM-compatible application layer aims to bring decentralised finance and other applications to Dogecoin (DOGE).
“Development is complete on version one; audits are complete,” said DogeOS Founder and CEO Jordan Jefferson.
The team is now prioritising mainnet deployment and integrations with wallets, exchanges and other protocols.
Jefferson said more than 100 builders are developing projects, including games and applications that could create new ways to use DOGE.
“Dogecoin is just too big to count on [donations] forever,” Jefferson said, explaining the need for sustainable developer funding.
The launch follows Dogecoin Labs’ formation, bringing together DogeOS, the Dogecoin Foundation and House of Doge.
Following the update, DOGE was trading down 0.9% at $0.06691.
