Popular Dogecoin influencer Mishaboar has issued an urgent warning to all DOGE investors and the broader community. Mishaboar has revealed that investors stand to lose all their coins if they fail to retrieve their private keys from the defunct Dogechain.info platform.

Final Deadline For Dogecoin Investors To Secure Private Keys 

In an X (formerly Twitter) post on November 18, Mishaboar delivered a critical warning to DOGE investors and holders, revealing that investors could permanently lose their Dogecoin holdings if they fail to download their private keys from the Dogechain.info, one of the most widely used Dogecoin wallets over the past decade. 

Mishaboar disclosed that Dogechain.info had officially shut down operations in July 2024 due to bankruptcy issues, prompting many users to raise concerns about how to retrieve and secure their private keys. 

In June 2024, Dogechain announced the closure of its website, urging users to quickly transfer their DOGE tokens from the platform and secure their keys. This platform was popular for storing and managing investors’ Dogecoin tokens, enabling them to interact exclusively with this meme coin for years. 

However, the recent closure of the platform has created a time-sensitive situation that could lead to severe consequences for Dogecoin holders if they do not adhere to present warnings. Mishaboar has issued December 31 as the deadline for all Dogecoin investors affiliated with Dogechain.info to download their private keys from the defunct wallet’s website.

The Dogecoin influencer has announced that failure to retrieve private keys before the deadline above would result in the loss of coins, as these keys are essential for accessing crypto wallets and recovering funds. Mishaboar has also reported receiving an alarming amount of emails from previous Dogechain users struggling to recover their wallets, highlighting that there was no method or strategy to recover lost funds if private keys are not backed up before the deadline. 

The Dogecoin influencer has advised investors to act quickly and use the “Wallet Backup” option on the Dogecoin.info website to download private keys and ensure they are stored safely offline. Moreover, for users experiencing issues with the website’s two-factor authentication, Mishaboar suggests contacting the appropriate wallet provider to help provide an adequate solution.   

Beware Of Phishing Scams

While he strongly advised investors to download their private keys on the Dogechain.info website to avoid losing funds, Mishaboar also disclosed the increasing prevalence of phishing scams. The crypto influencer has warned the community about an ongoing phishing scam targeting DOGE investors.

He revealed that users should be cautious and only interact with the official domain, Dogecoin.info. Mishaboar further disclosed a similar-sounding domain name, “Dogechain.com” has been associated with phishing attacks designed to gain access to users’ information and private keys and steal their funds.
