Veterans of the NFT big leagues, the Doodles let the CryptoPunks and Bored Apes take the spotlight and have been constantly working behind the scenes. Even though they’re not a worldwide brand like the other two, everybody’s seen the Doodles. They just don’t remember when or how those little drawings. Don’t let that fool you, though. The collection’s total sales are  $496M, according to CryptoSlam. So far.

More on that later. In the virtual world, though, they offer their holders new experiences like the Space Doodles. 

In addition to that, each Doodle is a sort-of governance token. A Doodle gives you voting and participation rights in the sort-of DAO that governs the whole project. The Doodle holders decide what to focus on next and control de community treasury, known as the DoodleBank.
