Dogecoin developer files patent for blockchain technology

Dogecoin (DOGE) developer Dogecoin Cash has filed a utility patent application with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) to protect core technology for its blockchain ecosystem, The Wall Street Journal reported. The company is focused on developing a technology layer that connects Dogecoin's base protocol with the deployment of real-world applications. The patent application builds on a previous provisional patent and includes a modular, independent blockchain framework. This framework aims to improve the convenience of Dogecoin transactions, simplify dApp deployment, and provide transaction confirmation notifications in under five seconds on web and mobile apps.
