Help with dogecoin core/wallet

I'm going to start this off by saying I realize how stupid this is and sounds.

About 5 years ago I was moving around files on my PC. My dogecoin core application files became corrupted, along with several other files. I have my wallet file. I am not 100% sure if I have a seed / password somewhere? I have already copied the %appdata% onto an external hard drive

I'm at a point where I really need to wipe my computer entirely and start fresh. What is the safest way to do this to keep my wallet? I am concerned that I will potentially lose everything. I realize how stupid this sounds and I should have done it differently and not done this at all.

I appreciate any advice that is respectful. I don't need to be reminded how stupid this sounds as I'm already kicking myself for how stupid this is. I appreciate you for reading this and any advice you may have.

Is there a kind soul who could spare a little $DOGE or $tDOGE? 🐶❤️

I'm integrating DOGE into Wally. Any amount means a lot!

Hello Dev-Shibes!

See this small recap of what the developers have done last month (May 2026) on the Dogecoin Core Wallet!

Focus was on code quality, documentation accuracy, and contributor experience.

I still have a few Dogecoins that actually belong to the community. If anyone has an idea for a backport or would like to contribute in any way to attract more developers to the project, please let me know. I’d be happy to hear from you and would gladly send over a (modest) tip!

Maybe Pat or chromatic can drop an idea what would be helpful (:

A lot of garbage is in the issue list:

Can anyone reach out to Patrick so this can be closed / removed.

Would be nice to have that clean up (:

Lately I’ve been experimenting with ways to modernize IRC a bit without completely changing its original spirit.

One thing I tried was integrating MyDoge directly into KiwiIRC, making Dogecoin-related features accessible straight from the webchat experience.

The idea isn’t to turn IRC into a crypto platform, but rather to explore how older protocols and modern tools can still work together surprisingly well in 2026.

The video shows a working demo of the integration running inside the webchat.

Honestly, I just find it fascinating that technologies people consider “dead” are still evolving and finding new use cases 😄

Curious to hear what people think about it.
