The service has been available since Monday, according to the company's official website, though users should check the availability of delivery in their region, the company said.
Each Dogpper – a dog treat that plays on the name of Burger King’s best-known menu item, the Whopper – costs 3 DOGE ($0.60 at today's prices). The company recommends purchasing a maximum of five units per order for “availability reasons.”

Users must transfer DOGE to a Burger King Brazil wallet, although they can also purchase the dog food with fiat.
Doggper is not something new for Burger King. The company had already launched the product in Argentina in 2019 so that customers could share something with their dogs when they received their deliveries.
In Brazil, the company launched an ad in July to promote the product in the country.
It does not appear that Burger King Brazil will allow customers to purchase human food using DOGE at this time.

SportFi’s next act: onchain markets built around match-day results
An area of blockchain-based finance focused on increasing fans' engagement with sports teams, SportFi uses tokens to grant access to privileges such as limited voting rights and exclusive rewards.
What to know:
- SportFi is moving beyond fan polls and merch perks toward token designs that react to live match outcomes via smart contracts.
- The next phase looks less like “loyalty points” and more like a sentiment market with DeFi primitives, like lending, staking and structured products, built around sports assets.
- Longer term, tokenized revenues and minority-equity exposure could turn sports’ illiquid cash flows into on-chain instruments, if regulation allows.
