Dogecoin Foundation’s newly established corporate arm, House of Doge, has launched an “Official Dogecoin Reserve.” This strategic initiative aims to enhance the meme coin’s utility and adoption as a viable transaction currency.
The reserve has been kicked off with an initial purchase of 10 million Dogecoin (DOGE), which is currently valued at approximately $1.8 million.
Dogecoin Reserve: A Step Toward the Future of Payments?
In the latest press release, the House of Doge outlined that one of its primary objectives with the reserve is to tackle a longstanding barrier for cryptocurrencies: slow transaction confirmation times. Speed and efficiency have long been concerns for digital currencies, often making them impractical for everyday use.
“By maintaining a reserve, we can bridge the gap between transaction processing times and real-world usability, making Dogecoin extremely practical for everyday purchases,” member of the Board-Elect of the House of Doge, Michael Galloro, said.
The organization seeks to facilitate instant and seamless Dogecoin transactions. This, in turn, will enable merchants to process payments with a speed and reliability comparable to traditional financial systems. Notably, Dogecoin’s average transaction processing time is already around one minute, making it a competitive option for day-to-day transactions.
The reserve serves as an important step to make DOGE a more attractive option for businesses, particularly given the lower transaction fees compared to conventional payment methods. According to BitInfoCharts, the average transaction fee currently stands at 0.341 DOGE ($0.063). This makes it significantly more cost-effective than traditional banking and credit card fees.
House of Doge also emphasized the coin’s inflationary supply model as an advantage for its utility as a transactional currency. Unlike Bitcoin’s (BTC) fixed supply of 21 million coins, Dogecoin adds approximately 5.2 billion new coins to circulation annually, ensuring a steady flow of liquidity.
This continuous supply supports Dogecoin’s use in everyday transactions rather than serving purely as an investment asset.
“With a strategic reserve, House of Doge is laying the foundation for a payments ecosystem that ensures liquidity, stability, and reliability,” Galloro added.
The initiative aligns with House of Doge’s vision of making “Dogecoin the People’s Coin!”—accessible to everyone as a truly decentralized currency. Going forward, House of Doge plans to announce its inaugural strategic partnerships.
These will focus on showcasing the token’s scalability and real-world payment applications. Additionally, the organization intends to introduce reward programs such as cashback incentives and merchant benefits to further drive adoption and engagement.
Meanwhile, the market has already responded positively to the announcement. DOGE’s price surged 8.2%, reaching $0.19 at press time. In addition, its trading volume saw a sharp 142.8% increase, highlighting increased trader activity.
