Doodles has announced the upcoming launch of its native token, DOOD, on the Solana blockchain.
This article will walk you through everything you need to know about claiming your DOOD airdrop, from eligibility criteria to a step-by-step guide on how to secure your tokens.
What is Doodles?
Doodles is a blue-chip NFT collection that launched in October 2021, featuring 10,000 hand-drawn, pastel-colored characters created by artist Scott Martin (a.k.a. Burnt Toast), along with co-founders Evan Keast and Jordan Castro. These PFP-style NFTs quickly gained popularity due to their artistic flair and strong community.
Over time, Doodles has evolved into a multimedia brand, exploring areas such as music, fashion, and digital entertainment. In 2022, Pharrell Williams joined as Chief Brand Officer, fueling high-profile collaborations with Adidas and other global brands. Doodles 2 further expanded the ecosystem by allowing holders to customize avatars with dynamic traits.
What is $DOOD?
$DOOD is the native token of the Doodles ecosystem, launched on the Solana blockchain. Key functions of $DOOD include:
- Governance: Token holders can vote on decisions that affect the future of the project.
- Utility: $DOOD can be used to access experiences, games, and exclusive content within the Doodles universe.
- Rewards: Community members can earn $DOOD through participation and engagement.

Step-by-Step: Check Your $DOOD Airdrop
Claiming your $DOOD airdrop is a straightforward process, but Doodles has emphasized that it is best done via desktop for a smoother experience. Here’s how to get started:
Step 1: Head over to Doodles page here. Make sure you’re on a secure internet connection and double-check the URL to avoid phishing scams.
Step 2: Click on “Connect Wallet” to link your Ethereum wallet that holds the Doodles collectibles. Supported wallets typically include MetaMask, OKX Wallet…
Once connected, the system will automatically scan your wallet for eligible NFTs. If you are an OG Doodles or New Blood participant, your claim status and allocation will appear on-screen.
Step 3: If you are eligible, you’ll be prompted to pre-register. This involves confirming your wallet and potentially linking a Solana-compatible wallet (such as Phantom or Solflare) to receive the DOOD tokens.
Following the pre-registration window, Doodles will initiate the airdrop on the Solana network. You will receive your DOOD tokens directly to the linked Solana wallet.
