Creators and collectors can try minting, listing and offers using test DOGE. The platform’s documentation sets out its fee structure and plans for a future Dogeolith distribution. Doge Museum opened its [NFT marketplace](https://kriptometa.com/en/news/nft) on DogeOS to test users on October 8. The project says minting, listing, buying and selling are available on Chikyū, the network’s test environment. The opening is not a DogeOS mainnet launch. Incubated by SofaLab, the platform combines a marketplace for existing collections with a launchpad for new ones. Creators can arrange mint phases with different prices and per-wallet limits. According to the project’s documentation, ownership of a deployed collection contract stays with the creator’s wallet, which controls royalties and allowlists. [Doge Museum’s October 8 opening announcement](https://x.com/Doge_Museum/status/2108247866485698603) Purchases and mints use the network’s native test DOGE. Offers use its wrapped form, WDOGE, which allows the balance to be spent through a smart contract. The app handles wrapping when needed. The [network and token documentation](https://doge.museum/docs/introduction/network-and-tokens) also says USDT cannot yet be selected in the interface; support for multiple currencies is planned for a later update. Test DOGE has no monetary value. Prices and sales displayed in the test marketplace cannot be treated as trading volume settled in real DOGE. ## A 5% sales fee, with royalties set by collection The [fee documentation](https://doge.museum/docs/marketplace/fees-and-royalties) lists a **5% marketplace fee** on secondary sales. [Creator royalties](https://kriptometa.com/en/glossary/nft-creator-royalties) vary by collection, with 2.5% described as the standard rate. Older collections deployed without royalty support do not pay a royalty. Both deductions come out of the sale price. In a hypothetical sale for 100 test DOGE with a 2.5% royalty, the marketplace receives 5 test DOGE and the creator receives 2.5. The seller’s share is 92.5 test DOGE before network costs. A buyer’s [network fee](https://kriptometa.com/en/glossary/gas-network-fees) is separate from the listed price. The collection contract supplies the royalty recipient and amount under the EIP-2981 standard; payment takes place in the same transaction as the sale. Primary mints follow a separate fee structure. The launchpad’s platform share defaults to zero but can be agreed for each project, so the 5% resale charge is not a universal rate for every action. ## Dogeolith distribution awaits mainnet The opening announcement also teased a collection called Dogeolith. Its [documentation](https://doge.museum/docs/introduction/the-dogeolith) says wallets holding the testnet NFT at a future snapshot will receive a mainnet version when DogeOS launches its mainnet. The exact snapshot block is to be announced later. The documents reviewed do not give a calendar date for mainnet. Dogeolith’s testnet token price is listed as zero, but mint, protocol and network fees are shown separately. A zero token price does not eliminate the [total cost of the transaction](https://kriptometa.com/en/nft-buying-checklist). On October 9, the marketplace homepage still labelled the collection “coming soon”; the announcement does not report a completed distribution. DogeOS announced the opening of its public testnet in a [September 30 release](https://www.globenewswire.com/news-release/2026/09/30/3372073/0/en/DogeOS-Opens-Public-Testnet-as-Builders-Bring-New-Apps-to-Dogecoin.html). The environment supports developers using Ethereum-compatible tools to build and test applications before mainnet.
