Dubai, UAE, May 6th, 2025, Chainwire

DogeOS, the application layer for the Dogecoin ecosystem, today announced the successful completion of a $6.9 million funding round led by Polychain Capital. This investment will fuel DogeOS's expansion. DogeOS, built on Dogecoin, empowers developers to create a wide range of consumer applications—from gaming to artificial intelligence—strengthening the Dogecoin network and furthering its position as a people's currency. With over 10 million holders, the Dogecoin community now has access to a highly user-friendly application layer.

The $6.9 million will be used to launch the DogeOS platform, expand developer tools, and forge strategic partnerships to drive adoption. Key initiatives include launching X-native applications and integrations to support next-generation AI and DeFi. DogeOS aims to transform Dogecoin from a meme coin into a fun, inclusive, and powerful digital economy.

DogeOS is revolutionizing the Dogecoin ecosystem by unlocking native DOGE yield and DeFi opportunities, allowing users to earn rewards and participate in decentralized finance directly with their Dogecoin. Previously limited to trading or tipping, Dogecoin holders now have access to a platform for games, apps, and innovative DeFi strategies, all built on Dogecoin's blockchain. This application layer transforms DOGE into a dynamic asset, providing seamless access to yield farming, stablecoin integration, and other advanced financial tools.

“Dogecoin has always been about community and culture – DogeOS is bridging the gap between Dogecoin’s massive consumer community and real on-chain innovation,” said Jordan Jefferson, CEO of MyDoge, the team behind DogeOS. “With over half a million users trusting MyDoge as their preferred wallet, we’ve seen firsthand the community’s demand for native Dogecoin experiences. DogeOS delivers on that demand – unlocking new use cases, more creativity, and a future where DOGE is built into everything.”

Polychain Capital, a leading investor in blockchain and cryptocurrency technologies, recognizes DogeOS's transformative potential to redefine community engagement with Dogecoin. “DogeOS is a game-changer for the Dogecoin ecosystem,” said Luke Pearson, Partner at Polychain Capital. “Its ability to support a diverse range of applications, from gaming to AI, positions it as a critical layer for the future of decentralized innovation. We’re excited to support DogeOS in building a network that truly belongs to its community.”
