How Shibo Turned Doginal Dogs Into a Real-World Community
Most NFT projects never leave the timeline. A Discord server, a flurry of hype tweets, and a few giveaways and then they disappear.
Shibo has always believed Doginal Dogs could not stay digital-only. If it was going to become culture, it needed to live in the real world too. That’s why he’s been at the front of taking Doginal Dogs into physical spaces from New York rooftops to Las Vegas venues to Miami’s biggest stages.
These events are more than meetups. They are the proof that Doginal Dogs is not just a collection of NFTs, but a living, breathing community.
In June 2025, over 200 Doginal Dogs holders came together in New York City for DDNYC.
Shibo played a central role in shaping the experience — from programming to hosting to making sure the community felt welcomed at every turn. Across three days, holders shared stories, laughs, and late-night energy across rooftops, lounges, and private venues.
It wasn’t just an event. It was the moment Doginal Dogs became a family.
The next chapter will unfold in Las Vegas, October 15–17, 2025. Hosted at The Venetian in partnership with TAO Hospitality, DDVEGAS will be on another level.
With Shibo at the helm, the event is designed as more than a gathering. It’s a full production complete with stage shows, entertainment, exclusive drops, and immersive brand experiences that bring Doginal Dogs into the mainstream spotlight.
In November 2025, Doginal Dogs will step onto one of the biggest conference stages in the world: the Futurist Conference in Miami.
Shibo will appear as both a host and a speaker, continuing to anchor Doginal Dogs in conversations that bridge culture and industry. For him, this is about proving that Doginal Dogs is not just another NFT brand but a case study in how communities can reshape the future of Web3.
Shibo has always said the blockchain may record value, but real culture is written in people.That’s why events are essential:
• They give the community a sense of belonging beyond the chart
• They create real relationships that strengthen the brand
• They produce lasting cultural moments — photos, videos, and stories that expand far past the venues
For Shibo, events are the bridge between Web3 identity and real-world impact.
Doginal Dogs was born online, but Shibo helped make sure it would not stay there.
DDNYC, DDVEGAS, and Futurist Miami are proof of his philosophy: real culture does not exist behind a screen. It exists in people coming together.
That is how Doginal Dogs grew from a free mint into one of the strongest communities in Web3.
