NiftyNoon: Is Doodles 2 the Future of Profile Picture NFTs?

As anticipation builds for the Doodles 2 mint, many questions remain surrounding the execution of the project (January 25, 2023)

Nifty Thought

• Doodles 2 is positioned as the product that will onboard the next wave of web3 natives. Whereas most notable NFT profile pictures today exist directly on Ethereum with scarce supply and high prices, Doodles 2 will have a large supply and an accessible price point on a more accessible blockchain (with little gas fees). In many ways, this is remarkably similar to the Reddit NFTs. While the Reddit NFTs were extremely popular it seems most of that is due to the NFT’s integrations into Reddit as a platform. Without something like the rumored partnership with a platform like Instagram, it is not clear if Doodles 2 can achieve similar heights.

• Unfortunately, it is not clear if Doodles 2 will actually be rewarding for original Doodles holders. Controversially, the Genesis Box was not a free airdrop for holders. This makes the decision to prioritize Genesis Boxes over Doodles holders for Doodles 2 access even more troubling. While they received a Dooplicator for free, people that purchased after the claim or sold their Dooplicator for liquidity are now second-class citizens for this drop. Furthermore, questions remain about how Doodles 2 itself will innately dilute the demand for the original Doodles profile picture. This entire product launch will be supremely interesting. Despite these open questions, the Doodles team has largely been great and they are certainly capable of surprising the market with a compelling product that rewards their earliest supporters.

Community News

• NFT community continues to criticize Porsche NFT:

  Farokh @farokh

  This mint didn't close and the tweet made people FOMO into minting more NFTs at 0.911 ETH. You can check the chain, but the amount sold is pretty big in the last 2 hours since the tweet. Whoever is running @eth_porsche, you're not helping the @Porsche brand and you suck.

  Our holders have spoken. We’re going to cut our supply and stop the mint to move forward with creating the best experience for an exclusive community. More info in the next hours.

  Thread - @moonbirds @kevinrose @JustinMezzell @akastevey_ Initial thoughts around @PROOF_CONF. I’m disappointed that the ability for birb holders getting a ticket is effectively a lottery - where proof holders get 1 free and another 50% off. @moonbirds is why there is…
