Next, we will analyze whether Dogecoin may transition from annual issuance to a gradual decreasing system. Although this directly contradicts the original consensus of the Dogecoin community, it is actually a super positive move.
In fact, based on the current technical architecture of Dogecoin, community dynamics, and market environment, there is theoretical potential to change the fixed annual issuance of 5 billion coins to a decreasing system, but it faces multiple challenges in practical implementation, making short-term realization unlikely. Here is a specific analysis:

1. Technical feasibility: The necessity of code modification and hard forks

The issuance mechanism of Dogecoin is directly controlled by its underlying code, currently issuing about 5 billion coins annually through block rewards. To change to a decreasing system (e.g., halving every four years), the block reward function in src/chainparams.cpp would need to be modified and implemented through a hard fork. This process is technically feasible but requires meeting the following conditions:

First, we need to understand the supply mechanism of DOGE coin. Unlike many other cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin, DOGE coin does not have a maximum supply limit. According to its official technical documentation, the initial supply of DOGE coin is 100 billion. While Bitcoin produces a block approximately every 10 minutes, DOGE coin generates a new block every minute, resulting in an annual increase of 5 billion DOGE coins. At the same time, DOGE coin has a fixed inflation rate, meaning that every 60,000 blocks, the reward is halved, which indicates that the issuance speed of DOGE coins gradually slows down.
