Dogecoin is getting its own programmable application layer.

DogeOS is now live on the public testnet, bringing EVM-compatible smart contracts, DeFi, and consumer apps to DOGE.

Dogecoin does not natively support complex apps like DEXs or lending protocols. DogeOS addresses this with a zero-knowledge rollup that settles back to Dogecoin while letting developers build with familiar @Ethereum -compatible tools.
