## What is Happy Hippo Doodles?

Happy Hippo Doodles is a community-driven project consisting of 10,000 joyful Hippo NFTs living on the Ethereum blockchain, randomly generated using hundreds of unique attributes. Happy Hippo Doodles started with the idea of providing the maximum value and utility to our members by combining unique hand-drawn art and the power of the blockchain!&#x20;

Owning a Happy Hippo gives our holders access to the exclusive Happy Hippo family community, unlocking multiple forms of utilities including products, events, and allowing holders to vote on our collaborative roadmap, the community wallet.&#x20;

We are not affiliated with any other projects just inspired by the artworks/communities.
