Doodles announced its memecoin launch on Feb. 13, saying it would mint 10 
billion DOOD tokens on Solana. The project said it would also have a future 
bridge to the Base blockchain.
According ot the team, 68% of the tokens will be allocated to community 
members: 30% to the Doodles community, 13% to the New Blood community, and 25% 
as its ecosystem fund.
Team members will receive 17% of the tokens, while the company gets 5% of the 
token supply. Doodles said these are subject to a one-year cliff unlock period 
and a three-year vesting period. The remaining 10% of the token supply is 
allocated to the project&#8217;s liquidity.
Holders of Doodles NFTs are eligible to pre-register and receive an airdrop 
allocation of the tokens. Exchanges like Binance and Bybit announced that they 
would list the token on their trading platform after the tokens are minted on
