This was actually a fork of Litecoin which is why Dogecoin can be merge mined with Litecoin Block rewards could be anywhere from 1 DOGE per block all the way up to 1 million DOGE per block. I should also point out that there was no premine The developers then decided that they would remove the randomness component altogether and the block reward was fixed at 10,000 DOGE per block. Since a Dogecoin block is mined every minute, this meant a supply growth of 5.2 billion DOGE When it comes to network effeciency, Dogecoin can handle around 30 transactions per second which implies a transaction time of about 5 to 10 minutes. The average transaction fee is about 1 cent
