A new reserve comprising 10 million Dogecoin (CRYPTO: DOGE), worth about $1.83 million, has been created to enhance the cryptocurrency’s application in real-world transactions.
What Happened: The project, led by House of Doge, an organization focused on boosting Dogecoin’s adoption through commercial partnerships and integrations, seeks to establish DOGE as a mainstream currency for both consumers and merchants, as reported by Decrypt on Monday.

In contrast to conventional reserves like the Bitcoin reserve, which serve primarily as financial hedges, this Dogecoin reserve will function as a liquidity pool to facilitate and support transactions within a worldwide business network.
“House of Doge is establishing the foundation for a comprehensive payments ecosystem intended to provide liquidity and reliability,” stated Michael Galloro, a board-elect member of House of Doge. “This reserve ensures that Dogecoin can be utilized practically for everyday purchases by streamlining transaction processing times.”
The reserve aims to resolve blockchain-related delays, which House of Doge identifies as an obstacle to the widespread adoption of digital assets in retail payments.
