2021 saw the digital era take a step forward with the surging popularity of non-fungible tokens and the announcement of the metaverse, sparking a year-long trend in several forums and online communities. Although NFTs had been around for nearly a decade, they only exploded on the internet in the early part of the year, inspiring many creative-minded individuals and collectives to try their hand.
The announcement of Mark Zuckerberg’s metaverse played a role in inspiring several new projects to join the metaverse, engineering their own NFTs to inhabit the world. Shiba Doge is the latest NFT project to join the fray.
Shiba Doge is an NFT project launched on Christmas Eve, racking up a $30 million market cap within two weeks. Their coin is called the Doge Army NFT. It consists of 10,000 uniquely hand-drawn NFTs that represent highly-trained and specialized combat veterans working on the frontlines to one day see cryptocurrency become the official currency of earth.
Through the years, cryptocurrency dominated the digital space, birthing some popular coins that have continued to be discussed today. The Shuba Inu and DogeCoin are two of the most popular cryptocurrencies in the space. Shiba Doge is dedicated to bringing the two communities together to form a large, loving community.
“We are bringing the DogeCoin and Shiba Inu communities together in one,” said the developers. “The art is all hand-drawn by a designer who works with Apple. In addition, we have a six-month marketing partnership with memes.com, which has 50 million followers across social media on Instagram, Facebook, and more.”
Shiba Doge’s whitelist saw 2000 mints sold in less than 48 hours, giving the developers an optimistic outlook on the project, especially with their NFTs going public for minting on January 14th at 6 pm PST/9 pm EST.
The Doge Army NFT project is set to be a revolutionary project that goes beyond the randomly-generated JPG. Doge Army HODLers will be able to stake their NFTs to earn $SHIBDOGE tokens, which are publicly traded on the ERC network.
Holders of the Doge Army NFT will be given exclusive access to membership privileges in the long run. Private holders will have access to virtual meetings where the community discusses cryptocurrency, NFTs, and strategies with NFT and crypto whales (individuals who hold large amounts of either or both). They will also be invited to virtual meetups in the metaverse. Additionally, they are able to utilize the staking features, breeding functions, and dedicated whitelist spots towards future projects.
With NFTs maintaining their steady course in the digital landscape, the developers of the Shiba Doge project are confident that the Doge Army NFT is going to become a mainstay in the NFT space for years to come, especially with its premise of bringing two of the largest cryptocurrency brands together.Learn more about the Doge Army NFT by visiting their official website.
