The organization\u2019s web portal says that \u201cPleasrdao is a collective of defi leaders, early NFT collectors and digital artists who have built a formidable yet benevolent reputation for acquiring culturally significant pieces with a charitable twist.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>This week the project told the public that it would fractionalize the Doge NFT that sold in June and leverage <a href=\"https:\/\/fractional.art\/\">Fractional Art<\/a>. The announcement says that the shards of the NFT will be called \u201c$DOG\u201d and \u201canyone can own a percentage of the Doge NFT, and a piece of this cornerstone of internet history.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are thrilled to offer consumers the opportunity to purchase fractions of Doge, one of Pleasrdao\u2019s most monumental NFTs,\u201d Jamis Johnson, the chief pleasing officer of Pleasrdao said in a statement sent to Bitcoin.com News. \u201cExpanding the ownership of $DOG beyond the DAO and to the greater general public provides more inclusivity. An investment in the community wouldn\u2019t be possible without the community itself, so we\u2019re especially excited to give back by granting shared possession of Doge.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><!-- growjs zone placement 31 -->    <!-- end of growjs zone placement --> <\/p>\n<h2>Otis to Fractionalize Cryptopunk #543<\/h2>\n<p>But Pleasrdao\u2019s idea has a lot of competition as there are a number of projects aiming to offer the crypto community shares of popular NFTs.
