Taking NFTs beyond their limits — Why Dogecoin Ordinals is the most powerful NFT platform to date.

We’re taking things into our own hands to show why Doginals are uniquely one of the most adventurous protocols within web3.

Maybe you’ve heard: Dogecoin NFTs have landed on drc-20.org.

Now, both pillars of the Ordinals ecosystem are available on DOGE. Anyone can seamlessly create token and art collections, stored entirely on the world’s favorite dog token — all at the cost of a couple cents.

But why use Ordinals on Dogecoin then? We already have them on Bitcoin after all. Well, DOGE is a very special kind of blockchain…

Where Bitcoin Ordinals are slow, steady, and carry relatively hefty transaction costs, Doginals bring the unique characteristics of DOGE to the mix: incredible speed and inexpensive transactions.

This enables us to interact with NFTs in ways never thought possible — and we’re about to show the world first-hand how it’s done.

Introducing Labradoges

In order to highlight these advantages, Doge Labs is releasing a protocol unlike any other.

This collection, spawning from the Unleash Doginals NFTs used to support the development of Doginals, will be comprised of the exact same 10,000 total Unleash Doginals that were (and are) available for purchase.

However, how these 10,000 NFTs end upis entirely up to you.

Each Unleashed Doginal has been magically transformed into a Doge Labs booster pack, which can be opened to reveal a unique Labradoge NFT.

These Labradoges come with powerful benefits within the Doginals ecosystem, and will be used as your personal identities within the Doge Labs network.

Over 5 million unique combinations of Labradoges exist. When you open a pack, your Labradoge will be given a unique assortment of up to 90* separate traits.

But fear not, for if you don’t like what you receive, you can send your Labradoge back to the Dog Park…

The Dog Park

With a maximum supply of 10,000 NFTs split between First Edition and regular Labradoges, but over 5 million unique combinations of character traits, how’s this work?

Each and every Labradoge can be ▇▇▇▇ when combined with a Ballz NFT.

By sending your Lab to the Dog Park (along with Ballz of your choosing), your current pup will be burnt forever and ▇▇▇▇.

Do note that ▇▇▇▇ multiple times will require an increasing amount of Ballz NFTs. But the ability to ▇▇▇▇ is well worth it…

…especially because you don’t want to miss out on finding one of the 21 one-of-one honoraries hidden within the Labradoge collection.

The Honoraries

Five of the 21 one-of-one honoraries hidden within the Labradoge collection

Featuring an incredibly diverse 21 one-of-one honorary designs used to signify, represent, and honor the history of NFTs and Ordinals at large, these are truly the holy grail hidden amongst the crowd.

Each of these honoraries are a Doge Labs-inspired shoutout to some of the most awe-inspiring NFT and Ordinals collections found throughout the crypto-sphere’s history.

Should you pull one of these, you can rest assured it’s not only a one-of-its-kind, but perhaps the rarest NFT to be included in a collection, ever.

First Editions vs. Lab Packs

Were you a holder of the original Unleashed Doginal? Well the First Edition Labradoge packs should look pretty familiar!

That’s right, every Unleashed Doginal has transformed into a First Edition booster (Investor Pack), waiting to reveal your new Dogecoin digital identity.

These First Edition Labradoges carry with them all of the same benefits as your Unleashed Doginal did, so you’ll still maintain that juicy 50% discount on the marketplace just for holding one in your wallet.

You’re also free to ▇▇▇▇ them, but be warned: ▇▇▇▇ a First Edition Labradoge will result in losing its First Edition background (and perks).

And yes, any of the 21 honoraries could potentially be found as a First Edition Labradoge as well…

What’s Next?

The Unleashed Doginals webpage has already magically been updated to reflect these new changes, which can be found under the Labradoges header at the top of drc-20.org.

You can learn more about the collection, scoop up some packs (while supplies last), and soon reveal and ▇▇▇▇ your Labs.

What becomes of the Labradoge collection is now in your hands: What will they look like? Which rares will be pulled? Which identities will you use to forge your new home on Dogecoin Ordinals?

We can’t wait to see which trait combinations make it into the final 10,000 collection. Again, where else can you burn 5 million NFTs… just for fun?

Oh yeah — one more thing. We also have a few tricks left up our sleeve, so keep an eye out and stay tuned to our socials to see how Labradoges will play their part throughout Doginals and the Doge Labs ecosystem.

This is something you’re not going to want to miss. 😎

*Note: All First Edition Labradoges come with the Doge Labs background, and thus have 77 optional traits instead.
