During a public Q&A session on March 30th, Qubic explained how it will begin mining Dogecoin on April 1st. Joetom, the lead developer, detailed a three-step process for this change. This is important because Qubic is currently using a combination of outsourced mining related to Monero and AI training. The new system will allow both of these activities to operate at their full potential simultaneously.
The presentation focused on Qubic’s “Doge Connect” system, which connects miners working on the Dogecoin network to Qubic’s network. This allows Qubic to dedicate all its own computer power to developing its AI project, Aigarth. According to Joetom, the system uses a central component that connects to mining pools, converts tasks between the two networks, confirms results, and sends them back into Qubic’s system.
We call this system ‘Dodge Connect’ internally. It essentially connects external computing power – specifically from ASIC miners using the Scrypt algorithm – to any of the Qubic mining pools. For miners, it means everything continues to work as usual.
The bridge isn’t restricted to just one cryptocurrency, potentially. Joetom explained that the system was designed to be flexible, meaning Qubic could eventually work with various blockchains or even different coins that can be mined. Currently, the focus is on Dogecoin, but the ultimate aim is to power Qubic’s AI research fully and use mining done by others as a way to generate income.
Qubic Starts Dogecoin Mining Transition
The launch will occur in three steps, and each step should take between one and two weeks, assuming tests proceed smoothly. The first step starts on April 1st and will be used to verify that everything is working correctly – including how tasks are assigned, solutions are processed, communication with the network happens, and public data is displayed. During this initial phase, Qubic will begin to move away from Monero mining by reducing its current mining schedule from three days a week to two.
Joetom explained the change will happen gradually, not all at once. He stated they’ll begin by reducing the current system to just two days a week during phase one. This will allow the old and new systems to run alongside each other, and by the end of phase two, the Monero component will be completely removed.
Ultimately, the goal is for the network to rely entirely on AI training and have all mining done by external sources. This means Qubic’s processing power will focus on Aigarth research, and Dogecoin mining will be managed by specialized miners outside the network, connecting through Qubic’s mining pools.
Qubic “Doge Mining” AMA
— Qubic (@_Qubic_) March 30, 2026
As an analyst, I found the payout model detailed during the AMA particularly noteworthy. Instead of directly rewarding miners with DOGE, Qubic intends to sell the revenue generated from outsourced mining for stablecoins. They’ll then use those funds to repurchase Cubics, and distribute those Cubics back to the miners. Joetom described this as a ‘buyback’ system, and the team believes it will incentivize miners to choose Qubic over mining Dogecoin directly.
He predicted that earnings from DOGE will increase. Specifically, mining DOGE through Qubic is expected to generate about 10% more revenue compared to mining DOGE directly.
This approach relies a lot on Qubic’s oracle system. When mining shares are submitted, they’re checked internally, and Qubic’s oracle machines confirm whether each share is valid. This isn’t just a simple way to connect to the Dogecoin network; it actually uses Qubic’s system to verify and record all Dogecoin-related mining activity.
Miners should focus on how this changes their day-to-day work, not just the idea behind it. Joetom explained that even older mining machines, like the Antminer L3, can still be used, though newer models like the L9 are more profitable. Testing will begin on April 1st, and connection information will be available on Qubic’s Discord server and from pool operators.
At press time, DOGE traded at $0.09.
