Topic: $DOG OF BITCOIN - PLUSHIES (Read 255 times)

Hey brother hope all is well! Love to hear it and see it of course. The first 1,000 are going to be very very special. That's a fact.

Hi! Yes, 100,000 plushies may sound like a lot, but the beauty of it is that there will be 100 separate drops. Every drop will feature 1,000 plushies, with rarities and traits changing each time, inspired by our $DOG Ordinals PFP collection. So, there will be 100 unique plushies, all representing $DOG, but with different traits from the Ordinals collection.

This is a long-term project, definitely not a get-rich-quick scheme. Selling 100k plushies is no small task, that’s for sure. There’s a lot of thought and effort behind it. And when the raffle prize eventually hits $1M USD in a few years, people will be buying these plushies by the dozens to increase their chances of winning. The prize 10M $DOG has already been purchased and is stored in a DOXED wallet, controlled by a national fast food brand, which is sponsoring the prize for this free raffle.

Additionally, to avoid waste, those who collect all plushie color variants have the option to donate their plushies at checkout. We then use these donated plushies for free giveaways and contests for members of the community who might not be able to purchase one.

Glad to see you here Vittorio, got mine! $DOG

100,000 of em? yikes, thats way too many. i think 1000 would have been good or max 10,000. Pretty expensive for a plushie, but the ordinal connection is a nice touch I suppose, so I'll probably take a stab a this scam just for the sake of the Ordinal.

So each plushie will have a matching ordinal, correct?

We deliberately didn’t allow hoodie color selection to ensure fairness. There’s limited stock for each color: rares under 20%, uncommons under 40%, and commons around 60%. To prevent hoarding, hoodie colors are distributed on a first-come, first-served basis to keep the process fair. All available colors are visible, and if someone isn’t comfortable with the options, we completely respect that.

Additionally, 20% of proceeds go to the $DOG treasury. Even the coin creator, @LeonidasNFT, started supporting our $DOG of Bitcoin project after ensuring its integrity and seeing hundreds of people post their plushies on X. The treasury enables us to engage the community, allowing members to earn $DOG by spreading awareness. I’ve personally invested to bring value to the community, and as one of the top 10 holders of $DOG, I could easily sit back, but I’m focused on raising awareness in organic, genuine ways.

Lastly, 10% of proceeds go to charity, chosen by the $DOG community. We keep everything transparent. These plushies are costly—between packaging, shipping, customs, serialization, and web maintenance, we’re not making life-changing money. Everything we’ve done has been with dedication and integrity.

That said, I challenge others to step up, use their creativity to drive awareness, bring value to the community, and find ways to make it a win-win for everyone, make some money at it (not life changing but oh well), and then we can sit down and figure out whose grifting what lol

So, if I understood this correctly -please correct me if I am wrong here- :

Hi thank you for asking these great questions, I will do my best to answer them below in bold.


In total, there will be 100,000 plushies in circulation. There are 3 rarities Common/Uncommon/Rare & each rarity reflects on the colour of the hoodie -Sleek Black/Pure White/Bitcoin Orange-. The rarity will be revealed ONLY after all 100,000 plushies are sold.

Question: Since this is a physical item -that Ships on 11/30/24-, in the unlikely event that all the 100K will not sold out, how will the reveal take place? You will never reveal the rarity & all colours will be assumed of the same common/unidentified rarity?

This is a long-term project with a total of 100 drops. For this particular drop, there are 1,000 plushies with three different hoodie variants. This is the “genesis” drop, and future drops will feature only one color, inspired by our Ordinals PFP collection on Magic Eden. We’ll select a $DOG from the PFPs and create a physical plushie based on it. The first 1,000 plushies are unique because they feature the original $DOG with its brown and white Shiba Inu colors and original hoodie designs, which won’t be repeated in the next 99 drops.

Customers are purchasing those with the certainty that each hoodie will have a different rarity. They are not fortune tellers to predict if the collection will sell out at some point in the future, to receive what they were promised... (Their colour rarity & if they will get their $DOG tokens or not)

We’ve set up a specific sequence for color distribution to ensure all hoodie variants are evenly spread throughout the first 1,000 plushies. This prevents anyone from hoarding rare variants by purchasing the same color in bulk. The rarity reveal is a bonus, as the first 1,000 plushies are inherently rare. The most desired color is intentionally made rare to give everyone an even chance at getting it. I hope this makes sense, but if anything is unclear, please let me know and I’ll clarify further.

Why you are not revealing the rarity percentage of each colour prior of sales emerges, for transparency reasons? A potential malicious actor/seller (I am not taking about you) could include only common hoodies in the blind boxes & after the 100K sells out to announce very low percentages of the uncommon & the rare (1% & 0.1% respectively let's say). This is not a very transparent approach....

For a potential collector that would like to collect all 3 different rarity colours & is willing to place -lets say- a 100 plushies order to achieve that: It really matters in their decision (to purchase or not) if the rarity chances of finding a rare is 30% or 0.1%

It is not transparent to sell first, and to announce later on what the customers will get (if they get it at all -ie $DOG raffle tokens-)

We haven’t revealed the rarity percentages before sales to maintain fairness and prevent anyone from hoarding rare variants. The system is designed so that even as the sellers, we’d need to purchase a certain number of plushies to have a chance at a rare variant, regardless of knowing the sequence. This ensures an even distribution and makes it fair for everyone. All colors and hoodie designs are visible upfront, and the rarity reveal adds an element of excitement while keeping everything transparent and balanced.

I totally understand your concern, and here’s our reasoning. Initially, we planned to offer each plushie color (Sleek Black, Pure White, and Bitcoin Orange) as separate products. However, with limited quantities, one color would sell out faster, immediately revealing its rarity. This could lead to bulk purchases (10-15 at a time), making it unfair for latecomers like yourself. We also faced limitations with the e-commerce platform, as restricting each color would conflict with our “one plushie per order” rule to ensure fairness for everyone.

 If we’re building a grassroots initiative like this, it wouldn’t make sense to risk our reputation with shady practices around rarity. The rarity reveal for the first 1,000 plushies will happen once they’re sold, not after 100k. Each future drop will feature one color inspired by our $DOG Ordinals PFP collection on Magic Eden. Feel free to check it out to get a sense of future designs.

Lastly, I want to clarify that no $DOG tokens are promised with each purchase. The raffle prize of 10M $DOG will be held once all 100k plushies are sold. If we hit a $10B market cap, that would make the prize worth $1 million USD.


How the secondary market will estimate each hoodie colour value, if the rarity never reveals?

This is totally out of our control, there might be colors that are not are but are more desirable then the "rare" ones.... We have an online market place in the pipeline and we will let the market decide.

Furthermore, the "10% to Charity" promise requires that the full supply of 100K gets sold out? (similar to the "Millionaire Raffle for a chance to win 10M $DOG" which will take place ONLY if the collection is sold out)

No, of course not. Charity polls will be held on a monthly basis, depending on that month’s sales, with donations made monthly. Please follow our X account for updates. Waiting until all 100k plushies are sold for donations would be ridiculous; this is a long-term project.


Could you please point out the exact location of the tracker (I couldn't find it on your site), so the community can keep track of sales?

Absolutely, here you go the live plushie ticker is under the main banner of the landing page. Updates instantly from the woocommerce store.  https://dogofbitcoin.com/

I tried the "BITCOINTALK" coupon during the checkout and it doesn't work. Just thought of letting you know  

Haha def something to think about, let's put it this way even as founders of the project we vowed to buy these plushies at full price just like everyone else which we have been and giving away in contests and giveaways for free.

Thank you & I am looking forward to your elaboration

I’ll admit, I didn’t appreciate these protocols at first, especially when you’re running a top 14 Lightning node with over 150 channels. All those force closures definitely cost me some sats, especially with the mempool being so congested. But after getting to know the community and learning more about it, my perspective changed drastically. I’ve been holding Bitcoin, and only Bitcoin, since 2013, and the idea of having fungible tokens on Bitcoin has really grown on me. If people were skeptical about Bitcoin before, now is the perfect time to jump on the mother chain and enjoy the ride. Honestly, it’s brought back the same excitement I felt 11 years ago when I was mining with 20+ Th/s!

I’m an early Ordinals fan, was airdropped multiple RuneStones & hodl the $DOG runes still.  That being said, $90 for a beanie baby & you don’t even get to pick the color of the hoodie… hard pass.  Good luck on your grift though ✌️

I did do that but since I'm new it doesn't embed the pictures. Need to get to that legendary rank dude lol

like the plushie but hate ordinals/runes/inscriptions all that garbage

Hi,

It may be helpful to show the full name of the $DOG Runes and the image such as this:

DOG•GO•TO•THE•MOON (Runes)



Thanks!

Hey OGNasty, I think we might be talking about two very different coins. The $DOG I’m referring to lives on the Bitcoin UTXO set. These tokens are called Runes, and they represent the first-ever fungible token standard on Bitcoin. There were no ICOs, no insider allocations, no dev or team tokens, 100% of the supply was airdropped to Ordinals Runestone (Bitcoin NFTs) holders.

This memecoin on Bitcoin is the gold standard for memecoins, meaning there are no paid influencers or shady allocations set aside to get listed on questionable exchanges. To put it simply, if Bitcoin were a memecoin, it would be 100% $DOG. It’s entirely community-operated, and the largest wallet only holds 2% of the circulating supply, confirmed to be an exchange holding it for its users.

It’s extremely decentralized, and the fact that it’s on Bitcoin is the only reason I’d ever consider touching it.

I own some $dog I think. I still need to claim it but I tossed a couple bucks at the initial public offering. Looks like it’s up around 400% since then. Not bad. It seemed like it had potential to be something historic. I guess it’ll be like a year before all my coins unlock and I can sell them for more Bitcoin, so good luck keeping it alive!

Hi everyone, I’m Vittorio Pantoliano, an early Bitcoiner since 2013 and a Bitcoin mining veteran. I got started in the mining world with hardware like KNCs and Spoondoolies, which pushed a max of 1.2Th/s each, back in the day. Just a bit of background on me! One of our community members suggested I introduce you to the $DOG of Bitcoin project, so here’s the scoop.

$DOG OF BITCOIN
The idea behind $DOG of Bitcoin is simple: we aim to educate the masses about Bitcoin using a cute $DOG mascot wearing a Bitcoin hoodie. It’s an approachable and fun way to explain decentralized blockchains. Our global community is filled with Bitcoin enthusiasts, and $DOG serves as a unique way to promote Bitcoin and blockchain technology in a format that’s easy to understand. The $DOG plushie is the physical embodiment of this concept.

ABOUT THE COLLECTION
In total, there will be 100,000 plushies in circulation. We’ll be releasing 100 drops, with 1,000 plushies in each. Each batch will feature a unique variant of the $DOG of Bitcoin plushie. We’re currently in the “Genesis Drop,” and so far, 415 plushies have been sold since the drop on October 19, 2024, also my birthday, by the way! 😄

Every plushie is serialized, both digitally and physically, with serial numbers ranging from 000,001 to 100,000. Each plushie will come with a custom $DOG Tag. We also have a live ticker connected to our store’s API to keep track of sales, so the community can always stay informed.

Serial No. 000,001 - 001,000 Ordinals PFP Collection
Plushies numbered 000,001 through 001,000 will be eligible to claim from our Ordinals PFP collection on Magic Eden once the first 1,000 plushies are sold. We’ll announce the claim date, and buyers can claim their $DOG PFPs at their convenience. During checkout, we collect the buyer’s ordinals/taproot address to whitelist them for the claim.

You can check out the collection here:
Link to $DOG PFP Ordinals Collection

What Makes $DOG of Bitcoin Unique
Each digital serial number assigned during the purchase process will automatically enter buyers into the $DOG Millionaire Raffle. Once all 100,000 plushies are sold, we’ll hold a massive raffle on a community-chosen platform to ensure transparency and avoid any FUD. The current prize is 10 million $DOG, which is valued at around $50k before the next bull run.

For those unfamiliar with $DOG, it’s the leading memecoin on the Bitcoin blockchain. After the April 2024 Bitcoin halving, the Runes protocol was enabled, making fungible tokens possible on the Bitcoin network. While supporting the Runes protocol is entirely optional, $DOG is Bitcoin’s mascot, and it’s helping to onboard people from around the world into Bitcoin through its charm and cuteness.

Giving Back
Finally, 10% of all proceeds from the plushie sales will go to charity. We’ll donate 5% to orphanages and 5% to dog shelters, with the community deciding where to allocate the funds.

Sorry for the long read, it’s a forum, after all! 😅 Feel free to DM me with any questions or on this post!
