Dogecoin Developers resumed the development of cryptocurrency against the background of its price records. The previous version of the client has been in use since November 2019.
The main improvement in Dogecoin Core 1.14.3 is the increased sync speed. As described, the speedup is made possible by removing costly integrity checks. Previously, they were carried out with each transfer of a block from one node to another.
“People say it’s a joke coin, but we are very careful with the code. Interest in the token has returned along with the soaring price, and we want to keep the asset in working order, “- said lead developer Dogecoin Ross Nicholl in a comment CoinDesk.
The developers also changed the parameter for storing cached transactions in the mempool from 336 hours to 24. Users can change the parameter manually, but in the update description, the default value was called the most optimal for nodes.
Launched in 2013 as a comic digital asset, Dogecoin has grown in popularity amid the support of Elon Musk. He repeatedly posted memes on Twitter with the symbol of altcoin – the Japanese dog Shiba Inu.
In early February, the Tesla founder posted a series of tweets about Dogecoin that raised the token rate by almost 50%… Wednesday February 24th Musk posted again on Twitter a picture of a dog – the price of the coin increased by 20% per day.
He previously named Dogecoin as his favorite cryptocurrencyand recently reported that bought altcoin for his youngest son.
Recall that Musk called on large asset holders sell some of the coinsto avoid centralization. More than 28% of the market supply of tokens or 36.8 billion DOGE focused on one address.
