What is Flow Blockchain? What does this mean for Doodles?
What is Flow Blockchain?
Flow Blockchain is a cutting-edge blockchain platform that is geared towards facilitating the development and execution of decentralized applications (dApps) and non-fungible tokens (NFTs). Created by Dapper Labs, the creators of the renowned blockchain game CryptoKitties, Flow Blockchain aspires to offer scalability, developer-centric features and support for NFTs. This platform is poised to become a leading player in the blockchain sphere by enabling the creation of high-performance dApps and NFTs, simplifying NFT management and providing developers with user-friendly tools for creating and deploying dApps and NFTs.
NFT Support
Flow Blockchain has built-in capabilities for the creation and management of non-fungible tokens (NFTs) which makes it simple for developers to work with these types of digital assets. NFTs are unique digital assets that can represent ownership of various items, like digital art, collectible items, and in-game items.
Other NFT project’s on Flow include, NBA Top Shot, which enables the production of officially licensed NBA NFTs on the Flow Blockchain. This partnership illustrates the potential for Flow to propel mainstream adoption and recognition of blockchain technology through collaboration with well-established and trustworthy organizations.
Scalability
Flow Blockchain is optimized for high performance, allowing it to handle a large volume of transactions per second. This makes it an ideal choice for decentralized applications that require a significant amount of throughput. This performance is achieved by implementing sharding and a proprietary consensus algorithm known as “Cadence”.
How does scalability help Doodles?
By using Flow Blockchain, Doodles can take advantage of this scalability and handle a large number of users and transactions without any issues. This will help to ensure that the dApp (Creating a Doodle 2 Avatar feature) is able to handle the load and deliver a smooth user experience, which is essential for attracting and retaining users.
With high scalability, Doodles will be able to process the transactions faster and efficiently which will attract more users and will reduce the chances of any delays or congestions. This will help Doodles to reach a wider audience, and establish a strong user base which is crucial for achieving mainstream success.
Flow will help Doodles onboard millions of Web2 users to the blockchain in a seamless way. According to @Poopie, “Newcomers can 1) create a wallet by signing into Gmail and 2) buy Wearables with their credit card in just a few clicks.” By using Flow, there will be no transaction fees. Just imagine, having to pay gas fees for every wearable purchase LOL.
Personally, this move to the Flow Blockchain for Doodles will help the brand. Doodles are on their way to make the Doodles brand a household name.

Easy for Developers
Flow Blockchain places a strong emphasis on making the development process seamless for programmers. To achieve this, it offers a range of tools and resources that aid developers in creating and deploying their dApps and NFTs. These resources include a smart contract programming language called Cadence and a set of developer SDKs that cater to different programming languages.
Partnerships
Flow Blockchain places a significant emphasis on fostering a strong and inclusive community, and on building partnerships. The platform is designed to be open, with the goal of creating a thriving ecosystem of developers, creators, and users. It has established partnerships with significant players in the blockchain and gaming industries, and operates with an open-source development model.
One of the most notable partnerships is with Instagram.
Instagram, one of the most widely used social media platforms, has begun integrating Flow Blockchain and non-fungible tokens (NFTs) into user profiles. This allows users to generate and handle NFTs within Instagram and showcase them on their profiles, allowing them to monetize their content and hold ownership of their digital assets.
The inclusion of Flow Blockchain and NFTs in Instagram profiles permits users to mint NFTs from their photos, videos, and other digital assets and sell them to other users. This presents a great opportunity for creators and social media influencers to earn revenue from their content and assert ownership of their digital assets. Furthermore, it also provides an opportunity for fans and collectors to own a piece of their favorite creators’ content, increasing the value of these NFTs.
This integration of Flow Blockchain and NFTs on Instagram is a significant step towards mainstream adoption of blockchain technology and NFTs. With a large user base, Instagram’s integration will expose a massive audience to blockchain technology and NFTs, making it a significant development in their mainstream acceptance.
