Dogeathon 2025: Building the Future of Dogecoin

The Dogecoin Foundation is hosting its second annual hackathon in Portugal this July, with dedicated travel funding to bring passionate builders from around the world together.

What's Happening

Dogeathon 2025 runs July 22-24 in Ericeira, Portugal, bringing together developers, creatives, and innovators to build on Dogecoin for three intensive days.

Thanks to support from 21Shares, the Dogecoin Foundation has secured dedicated funding to help community members who otherwise couldn't make the journey.

Why This Matters

This program reflects Dogecoin's core philosophy: doing only good everyday extends to making sure the community can participate regardless of geographic or economic barriers. The best ideas in crypto don't always come from the biggest wallets, and this travel assistance ensures contributions from passionate builders worldwide are part of Dogeathon.

What This Means for Potential Attendees

The travel assistance isn't limited to experienced developers. The Foundation is looking for:

• Developers ready to build on Dogecoin infrastructure
• Creative professionals who can bring ideas to life 
• Researchers exploring blockchain innovation possibilitiesPassionate community members with innovative project ideas 
• First-time hackathon participants eager to learn and contribute

Experience level matters less than enthusiasm and commitment to building something meaningful on Dogecoin.

What This Means for the Dogecoin Ecosystem

Dogeathon represents a pivotal moment for Dogecoin's technical evolution. With DogeOS - the application layer for Doge launching to bring DeFi, gaming, and AI applications to the ecosystem, hackathon participants will be building at the forefront of Dogecoin's transformation from meme coin to utility platform.

Attendees get direct access to:

• Dogecoin Foundation core developers
• Industry leaders shaping crypto's future
• Networking opportunities with passionate builders globally
• The chance to launch projects to Dogecoin's millions of holder community

Getting Started

Applications are open at dogecoin.com/dogeathon-2025/#fly-me. The process asks about your background, what you'd contribute to the hackathon, and your vision for building on Dogecoin.

Time is critical. If you know someone who should apply - a developer, creative, researcher, or anyone passionate about Dogecoin's potential - reach out today. Sometimes the difference between attending and missing out is simply knowing the opportunity exists.

Community Action

The Dogecoin community has always excelled at supporting each other. Share this opportunity with builders who deserve to be there but might not have seen the announcement. Tag them on social media, send direct messages, or simply start conversations about who should be building at Dogeathon.

The strongest communities are built when everyone has a chance to contribute, regardless of their starting point.
