Dogecoin is a community-driven cryptocurrency that was inspired by a Shiba Inu meme. The Dogecoin Core software allows anyone to operate a node in the Dogecoin blockchain networks and uses the Scrypt hashing method for Proof of Work. It is adapted from Bitcoin Core and other cryptocurrencies.
For information about the default fees used on the Dogecoin network, please refer to the fee recommendation.

To start your journey with Dogecoin Core, see the installation guide and the getting started tutorial.
The JSON-RPC API provided by Dogecoin Core is self-documenting and can be browsed with dogecoin-cli help, while detailed information for each command can be viewed with dogecoin-cli help <command>. Alternatively, see the Bitcoin Core documentation - which implement a similar protocol - to get a browsable version.
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.

| RPC | 22555 | 44555 | 18332 |
