Doodles will launch the DOOD token and airdrop.
Doodles announced the launch of a memecoin on February 13, confirming that it would issue 10 billion Doodcoin tokens on the Solana platform. The project also announced plans to connect to the Base blockchain in the future.
According to the team, 68% of the tokens will be allocated to community members: 30% for the Doodles community, 13% for the New Blood community, and 25% as a fund for its ecosystem.
Team members will receive 17% of the tokens, while the company will get 5% of the total token supply. Doodles reported that these tokens are subject to a one-year lock-up period and a three-year vesting period. The remaining 10% of the token supply will be allocated for project liquidity.
Holders of Doodles NFTs are eligible for pre-registration and to receive a share of the tokens via Airdrop. Trading platforms like Binance and Bybit announced they would list the token on their exchanges after the minting on May 9.
