"How big of a fan of Doodles am I?" I asked my self this week. Doodles represents all of my favorite things in one: Disney-style animation, TikTok-style short-form video, Ethereum-style PFP NFTs. While I don't own a Doodles OG myself, I do collect all of their onchain media, am an early follower on TikTok (see below), and am the proud owner of a Doodles G-SHOCK watch. I am provably, verifiably, undoubtedly a big fan. But how big, exactly?
That's what I set out to understand this week. So I did what anyone would do, I created a Doodles leaderboard on Stack and assigned points for collecting all Doodles onchain media and collectibles and following @doodles on Farcaster. I still need a zkTLS proof to prove I purchased the watch and was the 808th follower on TikTok to account for those activities, but this is a good start for now. I now know I am the 8,910th biggest fan of Doodles or top 8%, not bad!
I made this leaderboard in about 10 minutes on Stack, here's how 👇
Everyone is top 10% for something, for me it's Doodles. For you, maybe it's hours playing tennis, or supplying TVL, or making pasta, or visiting countries. I'm excited to learn more about myself and hope you enjoy doing so, too. Expect to see more leaderboards like this.
