Dogecoin shares its wallet code with Bitcoin and Litecoin: a light wallet that asks Electrum servers about your addresses, ready in seconds. Like the other coins, it is optional: add it when you create your wallet, or later with the + next to the coins.
Your first Dogecoin wallet comes from the same 12 words as your other coins, unless you gave it its own words when adding it. Dogecoin has no SegWit, so its addresses are the classic ones, on the path Cake Wallet, Trezor and most Dogecoin wallets use:
| Coin | Addresses | Path |
|---|---|---|
| Dogecoin | D… | m/44’/3’/0’ (BIP44) |
As with Bitcoin, the receive address changes after each payment, and every address stays yours. You can keep several Dogecoin wallets (Add wallet, above the address), and coin control works the same way.
Dogecoin fees are counted in DOGE per kilobyte, the unit Dogecoin Core uses. A payment usually costs a few cents; blocks come every minute, so even the slow speed is quick. Payments of less than 0.01 DOGE can’t be sent: the network treats them as dust.
Unlike Bitcoin, a Dogecoin payment can’t be sped up once sent. With one block a minute, it rarely needs to be.
Biscuit uses public Dogecoin Electrum servers run by Stack Wallet, Komodo and Aftrek. To use your own (ElectrumX), set it in Settings › Network › Bitcoin, Litecoin & Dogecoin. See Electrum servers for what they learn and how to set yours.
