Qubic Unveils 3-Phase Rollout For Dogecoin Mining Attack
Qubic has announced a three-phase plan to transition its mining operations from Monero (XMR) to Dogecoin (DOGE), starting on April 1. The shift is designed to be deliberate and methodical rather than instantaneous.
Phase 1 (beginning April 1) serves as a testing period where Monero mining remains active 50% of the time, while Dogecoin runs at 100% in "test mode." Computor revenue during this phase remains in XMR only.
Phase 2 allows computors to choose between XMR and DOGE revenue, with XMR gradually phased out. Those opting for DOGE will no longer receive XMR.
Phase 3 completes the transition, with revenue switching entirely to DOGE, XMR mining disabled, and both DOGE mining and AI training running at full capacity.
Qubic claims its network is now three times faster after recent optimizations, which it says will help handle the increased load. The team cited Dogecoin’s significantly larger daily emission value—approximately $1.44 million compared to Monero’s—as the key economic incentive for the switch.
