Dogecoin News: MyDoge Sets Sept. 17 Doginals Shutdown Deadline
Doginals Support Ends Soon: What MyDoge Users Should Know
Today's Dogecoin News centers on a wallet-level deadline rather than a network change. MyDoge, one of the more widely used Dogecoin wallets, has confirmed it will suspend support for Doginals and DRC-20 tokens on September 17, giving holders roughly two weeks of notice.

What MyDoge Is Actually Shutting Down
Per MyDoge's own account, the change affects two specific asset types, not DOGE itself:
Doginals, the Dogecoin equivalent of Bitcoin-style ordinal inscriptions
DRC-20 tokens, a token standard built on top of the DOGE blockchain
Starting September 17, The platform will no longer be able to display or send these assets through its app. Ordinary DOGE holdings and standard payments inside MyDoge are explicitly unaffected, and the wallet has said further feature updates are still planned.
Why Maestro Is Behind This Change
This isn't a decision MyDoge made independently. The wallet relies on Maestro, a third-party infrastructure provider, to power Doginals and DRC-20 functionality behind the scenes. Maestro has announced it will shut down its DOGE API services on September 18, one day after MyDoge's own cutoff.
Event | Date |
the wallet suspends Doginals and DRC-20 support | September 17, 2026 |
Maestro shuts down its DOGE API services | September 18, 2026 |
The wallet has described the timing as an unexpected and inconvenient change for affected users, framing the September 17 deadline as advance notice ahead of Maestro's own shutdown rather than a change MyDoge wanted to make.
What DOGE Holders Should Do Now
The practical impact of this DOGE News update depends entirely on what a given wallet actually holds:
Holders of Doginals or DRC-20 tokens in MyDoge need to migrate those specific assets to another compatible wallet before September 17
After that date, those assets remain intact on the Dogecoin blockchain itself, since the underlying onchain data isn't deleted, but MyDoge will no longer be able to display or move them
Anyone holding only standard token in the platform doesn't need to take any action
That distinction matters. This Dogecoin News development is about wallet-level access to a specific asset category, not a Dogecoin network change or a risk to token holdings broadly.
DOGE Price Falls Below 0.081 Today

The rise in 24-hour volume alongside a falling price points to active selling today, rather than a quiet drift lower, though nothing in MyDoge's announcement itself points to a direct link between the wallet change and DOGE's broader price move.
Conclusion
Today's Dogecoin News is a reminder that wallet-level infrastructure changes can matter even when the underlying network doesn't change at all. MyDoge's September 17 cutoff for Doginals and DRC-20 support, driven by Maestro's own API shutdown a day later, gives affected holders a clear window to migrate. Standard holders have nothing to do, and DOGE's own price today is moving independently of this specific announcement.
