In June 2022, Doodles made great noise with the announcement of Doodles 2. Now, the community-base collectibles project is geared up for Doodles 2 launch on the Flow blockchain. Holders can personalize their Doodle on-chain by picking their look with elements such as emotion, body, accessories, hairstyles and apparel.Β
Weβre excited to announce some massive news… @Doodles is coming to Flow π€―
β Flow (@flow_blockchain) January 25, 2023
Itβs time to open a brand new experience in the Doodles universe #onFlow with Doodles 2 collectibles π₯
Check out the full announcement and get your #doop ready! πhttps://t.co/gQDthuWFJw
A future based on potential cross-interoperability with Ethereum will evolve owing to Doodles 2 launch on Flow.Β
According to the plan, wearable collections will launch through IRL drops in relation to events as well as brand partnerships with public figures and reputed partners.
The Gaia marketplace will enable purchasing, selling and trading of the wearables.
Owners of Doodle 2 will experience limitless customization of personal and dynamic NFT identities and utilize them on gaming portals, social platforms, streaming content, live events, retail activations and more.
Jordan Castro, Co-founder and Head of Product at Doodles, defined Doodles 2 as an amalgamation of collecting, self-expression as well as community, all within a frictionless app that is backed by blockchain.
He added that the community’s expectation of being able to customize their Doodles and match it with their real-life vibe has been productized.
Doodles 2 will add more value for the present community and urge others to come forward and become a part of Doodles.
CEO of Doodles, Julian Holguin, said that consistency in terms of investing in Doodle’s main collections on Ethereum other than connecting Doodles wherever their community resides is exciting.
On January 31, 2023, the initial step of Doodles 2 product experience will open to owners of Doodles. However, the complete details are yet to be disclosed.
For those who do not have a Dooplicator, buying it on OpenSea is possible. Talking about those who have a Dooplicator but do not have a Doodle, owners will be soon allowed to lend their Doodle on an upcoming marketplace.
Why the Flow blockchain?
While Flow offers a frictionless onboarding experience, Doodles 2 collectibles strives to prove to the world how powerful building on Flow could be.
Smooth checkout flows and high-end security will make Doodles 2 accessible and secure for all. Within a few clicks, a Dapper wallet can be created to locate the Doodles.
It is also possible for users to shift their non-fungible tokens into their personal non-custodial wallets anytime they want.

The Genesis Boxes
A month after Dooplicator, Genesis Boxes will unlock and will mint second edition Doodles 2 wearables besides a Doodles 2 Beta Pass that could be used in the future.
After owning wearables and Beta Pass, a user will be able to access the private beta once when it starts. It would be the initial look at the create-your-own Doodle tool.
Reaction of Twitter users
Grant Sparks, an entrepreneur, shared high hopes because Doodles 2 is based on Flow. He appreciated the Genesis Box too.
I am unashamed to be apeing into @doodles w/ Doodles 2, ESPECIALLY because they’ll be on @flow_blockchain from @dapperlabs.

Their Genesis Box is promising. Their steps to mainstream w/ purchase of Rick/Morty. This project = π₯
I’m buying $FLOW, Doodle, it’s happening. https://t.co/2B2pT7YrqW
Web3, crypto and NFT enthusiast @The Open Chain believes that Doodles 2 is nothing beyond hype and won’t do well in the future.
I don’t think so, the volumes on flow are low for NFTs. Doodles 2 might create some hype but in the long term might struggle there. Saying that anything is possible in Web3 π€£

According to research analyst @utsavusheth, Doodles 2 is creating something like Snapchat avatars on the Flow blockchain.
@doodles-2 is making something similar to @Snapchat avatars on Flow

Seems such a good underexplored idea. NFT for the masses starts this way!
NFT collector @metagovi praised NFT collector and investor @pranksy’s views about Doodles 2 launch and called it a great initiative.
Great thread by @pranksy

I think it’s a great move for @doodles to Launch #Doodles2 on @flow_blockchain for all the reasons in this thread.
We need less religious beliefs in the #NFTCommunity & more willingness to adapt to the different requirements for each product. https://t.co/WW7yTYGWFE
@morethanwordsfx shared their view and tweeted that it was already known that Doodles 2 would be on Flow and there’s nothing to create fuss over.
I get most of the post-announcement #FUD, but this time with @doodles I’m finding it hard to understand. It had been pretty clear for weeks if not months that #Doodles2 wouldn’t be on #Ethereum and @flow_blockchain was the obvious choice. So what’s the fuss?

Web3 enthusiast @xjbarnft called Doodles 2 a paid effort by Flow.
Doodles 2 π€£

Who asked for this. I wonder if Flow paid them to come and make a project. No chance they didnt…
ConclusionΒ
On one hand are high hopes and claims from Flow and Doodles and on the other hand are mixed views of Twitter users. On the basis of both, predicting anything as of now isn’t possible and must be left on the performance of Doodles 2.
