Doge Pound Roundup: Mintpad Partnership, Rescue Pup, And More
Weekly roundup and everything happening in Doge Pound world for the week ending 20th August
It’s been an exciting week at the Doge Pound, and here is another roundup full of news and updates. Our community is growing, and we are excited to see everyone having a great time, be it the Sketch n Chill sessions, inter-community events, or our Doge Pound City GTA server.
Our no-code NFT solution business, Mintpad, is partnering with Mantle Network to provide you with a seamless experience. We are incredibly grateful for your support in helping us build and maintain the Doge Pound Shelter. We rescued another puppy last week. All this and more as we round up the week. Let’s go.
Mintpad Partnership
Mintpad is collaborating with Mantle Network, the first modular Ethereum L2 solution, to offer an enhanced and seamless experience for launching Non-Fungible Token (NFT) collections.
Mantle Network introduces a revolutionary Ethereum L2 solution that rethinks how various aspects of a blockchain work together, such as data availability, performance, and security.
With Mantle Network’s compatibility with the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM), developers can leverage smart contracts and tools that work on Ethereum with minimal disruption. Key benefits include:
- Hyperscalability: Enhancing the scalability of the Ethereum network through roll-up technology and a decentralized data availability layer. Enjoy increased efficiency, reduced fees, and lower latency.
- Unparalleled Security: Operating in a familiar EVM environment, offering top-notch security to decentralized protocols without compromising performance.
- Robust Ecosystem: Collaborating with a wide array of partners, offering support to builders on the platform. The governance by the $MNT token holders ensures the community’s voice is heard.
The above benefits are in addition to the benefits already provided by Mintpad, such as affordable deployment, more equity, and complete ownership of NFT collections.
With this collaboration, creators can launch their NFT collections more cost-effectively, securely, and efficiently while benefiting from the potent ecosystem and governance offered by the Mantle Network.
Recently, Kyle and Sean Lee hosted a Twitter Space discussing this collaboration and other topics. You can listen to the recording here.
Doge Pound Sketch n Chill
We’ve been conducting a fun weekly community event in Discord with one of our lead artists, Pumpkin, who creates real-time artwork during the two hours workshop.
Last week's event was held in our gaming community Discord. Here’s some of the artwork created based on requests from our Doge Pound City gamers.
It is a weekly session held every Wednesday at 1 PM ET, so make sure you drop by for the next one. Watching Pumpkin take live requests and draw something from scratch is exciting. Attend our next workshop to learn more.
Rescue Story from Doge Pound Shelter
The construction and operation of the Doge Pound Shelter in Tanzania are our most rewarding accomplishments. We are constantly rescuing dogs who need a new and friendly home.
The shelter employees who run the operations are the backbone of our community, and it gives us immense joy to watch the warmth between our dog keepers and their best friends.
The team rescues dogs and puppies regularly and provides them with the utmost love and care. Last week, they brought in a puppy named Apple.
Apple was found around midnight, out in the cold, making noise, probably crying for help. It was scared and hungry, all alone. Luckily, someone heard its cries and went to find it.
The rescuer brought the little pup inside and fed it some milk. The next day, he brought it to the shelter. The puppy’s coat shows it could have worms, so it needs some initial care.
We need your help to continue supporting the shelter and hopefully expand it. If you wish to donate, you can do so via fiat or crypto on our donation page.
No amount is big or small — every act of kindness matters.
Final Thoughts
We are grateful for your support through the ups and downs of this memorable journey so far. We are expanding our IP to reach a diverse community of dog lovers. Through continuous innovation, we’ll create unique and scalable products (AI tools, apps, toys, animations, etc.) for a wider audience.
Our commitment to expanding our shelter and helping as many dogs as possible remains unwavering. Stay tuned for more as we leverage cutting-edge AI technology to execute our vision of becoming the leading Web3 dog brand.
