DOGECOIN’S ‘SERIOUS’ YEAR?
Dogethereum (DOGX), which shares its name with the Rinkeby project known as Dogethereum Bridge, is looking to branch off from the Dogecoin chain in fall. This would constitute Dogecoin’s first ever hard fork.

“Our goal it to push Doge currencies to the brand new direction, with no ASIC mining, speed and simplicity.”

Dogethereum Bridge came about as part of Ethereum’s truebit technology – a plan to help the largest altcoin scale to meet user demand.
