Interest in building on Doge has been exploding in recent months 🎉, so we decided to launch some community projects to get folks up and running on testnet with the goal being for anyone to be able to easily build on the doge testnet without spinning up their own node/infra.

In addition, we have dedicated a relatively beefy server to mining doge testnet blocks, so if your building on testnet you can be sure that blocks can be mined in a reasonable amount of time (1-2 minutes).
If anyone has any other tools they wish to see built for testnet, please let us know!
