Welcome, fellow Doggo-rescuer!

BitDogs
5 min readMay 6, 2021

BitDogs are the human’s best-friend generated as NFTs on the Ethereum blockchain! They are loyal, happy, and always there for you as your emotional-support-doggo.. but they are in danger, and only you can save them!!

Paying respect to its predecessors like CryptoPunks, of course, there were Zombies, Bored Apes, Aliens, but wait! The community didn’t stop there. We had Robots, Kittys,… you name it! And all those in nearly endless combinations — Animal costumes, Facial expressions, Accessories like Diamond Hands, and Backgrounds like Rainbows — but all the time, our favorite animal, a human’s best friend, got overlooked. This stops now! We need your help to rescue the BitDogs and make them immortal on the Ethereum Blockchain. To bring our favorite animal and best friend into the MetaVerse.

Specs

Each BitDog is a programmatically generated 32x32 GIF enlarged to 320x320, stored as an ERC721 token on the Ethereum blockchain. Each one is unique, carefully crafted from more than 12 properties, and animated with 5 different frames at 150ms per frame. There will be a limited supply of 6000, and since bonding curves suck, each BitDog costs exactly 0.08 ETH to rescue.

Fair rescue — fair distribution.

The purchase price does not increase, since we believe in a fair distribution without FOMO. To build a community and encourage collecting and trading, we purposefully chose the price for each of the 6,000 BitDog at 0.08 ETH.

Why get an NFT? Why get a BitDog?

As our dear friends from the Chubbies put it….

“Think of NFT as Trading Card Games for adults who love collecting and with some money to spare. NFT is trending. Now is the time to join the party! NFT fundamentally changes how people can collect and trade art. We strongly believe that it’s here to stay. For example, through common standards, everyone can easily peek into each others’ collection a.k.a wallets. It’s like art collecting on steroids. Trading art has never been so easy, and Art is like the new stocks. Who knows? The NFTs you buy today might be worth millions in the future (or zero). Nevertheless, your NFT experience will be priceless.”

And as for why BitDogs? So many reasons!

Most of all, BitDogs are as loyal, loving, and cute as real dogs, and will live forever on the Ethereum Blockchain. There will never be a best friend as caring as a doggo, and BitDogs give you the chance to keep your best friend forever. Or as Jill Abramson put it:

“You know, a dog can snap you out of any kind of bad mood that you’re in faster than you can think of.”

There are many possible combinations and we can’t wait to see what the community thinks of which one is the cutest! And you might also be able to connect with other BitDog-owners on the BitYard if the rescue mission is successful.

But don’t forget! Every single one of the 6000 BitDogs deserves a home. No matter the color. No matter the breed. No matter the rarity. Even XRP-maxi dogs deserve love and attention. That is why you will only know which BitDogs you adopted once your doggos are brought to the Ethereum-blockchain, or the fire takes over the island completely!!!

About Us

We are three nurses, animal lovers, and ETH-maxis. Not having shorted or sold ETH once since buying in early 2017, we understand the grief and pain Dr. Theo Todorovo had to go through. Still, we want to save the dogs — and they are about to get little puppies soon! We are three friends who believe in the future of crypto and NFTs. We make NFTs while we HODL onto our bags of BTC, ETH, FTT, and RUNE. All of us love pixel art, and we all design and code.

FAQ

Buying NFT for the first time, how can I get started?

Get a Metamask chrome extension. Load it with ETH through services that allow you to change your money to ETH like Coinbase Pro or Paypal. Finally, click the button on the Sticky banner and approve the transaction on Metamask. Voila!

Are BitDogs a good investment?

Well, first of all, BitDogs are not Mona Lisas or a thing in general, they are doggos, so… it depends. Use your own judgment. BitDogs won’t take up as much time as a real dog, but with everything that’s on the roadmap, they will still be as fun! They do not have a bonding curve, but please don’t spend your food money on this. Not financial advice. In our humble opinion, getting a BitDog is the best decision you can make in your life RIGHT NOW!

How can I trade my BitDogs?

BitDogs adhere to the ERC-721 standard so you can trade them on platforms like OpenSea.

What can I do with my BitDogs?

You own your BitDogs digitally and are free to do anything with them. Pet them, feed them, love them. Also, your BitDogs is going to get Puppies soon! Besides, if we rescue all doggos, you might meet other BitDog holders on the BitYard, or if you are feeling adventurous, join forces with your fellows and fight the evil scientist in our very own BitDogs Game Edition- which we will both try to implement asap after full-rescue.

Feedback and purchase issues

The price for rescuing a BitDog is fixed at 0.08 ETH plus gas fees for the transaction and is recorded at Metamask launch. If there are any issues, DM us on Twitter with your Etherscan transaction and we will be sure to take a look!

How can I help?

We are still in an early stage and still figuring things out. Really appreciate it if you help share this project!

Future Plans

BitDogs are not supposed to only be tradable art like most of the other NFTs, but more features are to come. Once all BitDogs get rescued, we will set out to implement the BitYard for Doggo-Owners to connect. Also, there are rumors about a game where you can fight the evil scientist. And last but not least, mating season is coming up guys…

My BitDogs are not revealed yet on OpenSea, what can I do?

BitDogs are revealed once they are minted. After the Reveal, you will see the exact BitDogs you rescued from the hands of the evil scientist. Any BitDog that was not rescued will be burned by the eternal flame and lost forever, so spread the word!!

Loyal, Loving, Cute - BitDogs

Hmmm.. What kind of BitDog will you rescue?
