“REBELDOGS” is a fresh idea in both the film and cryptocurrency worlds, as it is the first movie to connect crypto-inspired dog characters with Hollywood storytelling. Scheduled for release in 2025, the movie combines the popularity of meme coins with the universal love of pets. The Rebeldogs movie company has licensed all the movie merchandise to a separate company having the rights for selling the crypto dogs coins, being the first digital movie collectible worldwide.
What makes “REBELDOGS” special is its deeper purpose. Each dog in the movie represents a meme coin, and part of the proceeds from these coins will go to dog shelters around the world. The project hopes to raise awareness about cryptocurrencies while also supporting a good cause. With over 9,000 members in its Telegram group, the “REBELDOGS” community is growing fast.
“We wanted to create something meaningful—a project that doesn’t just entertain but also contributes to a cause people care about. Crypto and dogs felt like the perfect combination,” says Dirk Oerlemans, the creator of “REBELDOGS.”
Mixing Pop Culture with Digital Coins
Meme coins, which are cryptocurrencies inspired by internet memes, have become a major trend. Coins like Dogecoin and Shiba Inu reached a combined value of $12 billion in 2023. The REBELDOGS project builds on this success by tying the idea of meme coins to a Hollywood movie, creating something entirely new.
“We’re rewriting how films are marketed,” explains Oerlemans. “By tying our project to meme coins, we’re not only telling a story but also building a community that continues to thrive long after the movie premieres.” Meme coins are all about being silly and cute—being the driving force everybody understands. The movie is fully funded upfront by the founder, and a separate company is licensed for the launch of the REBELDOGS coins, making them the first digital movie merchandise.
The movie will feature famous actors and influencers, known as Key Opinion Leaders (KOLs), who have a combined social media audience of over 20 million people. These influencers will voice the canine characters, making the project appealing to younger audiences who follow them online.
To keep people engaged before the movie’s release, the REBELDOGS project is launching pet coins every month. These coins create value for the community while donating to dog shelters. It’s a clever way of building excitement for the movie while making a real-world impact.
Turning Inspiration into Action
The idea for “REBELDOGS” came from a personal story. Oerlemans adopted a dog named Rebel from a shelter. This experience inspired him to think of ways to support more dogs in need while also introducing people to cryptocurrency.
Oerlemans believes the project has a bigger purpose than just creating a movie. “The crypto super cycle is coming, so by integrating education into entertainment, we want to prepare people for that future in a way that’s both fun and impactful by supporting dog shelters.”
Each pet coin connected to the movie is designed to help dog shelters. The donations are tracked through blockchain technology, ensuring the money goes directly to the shelters. This level of transparency is one of the reasons the project has attracted so much attention from animal lovers and crypto enthusiasts alike.
Growing an Online Community
“REBELDOGS” is not just about the movie or the coins—it is about building a community. With thousands of followers on Telegram, the project is bringing together people who love dogs, crypto, and creative storytelling.
The project also offers ways for the community to get involved. For example, the team behind “REBELDOGS” launched a chatbot where fans can interact with characters from the movie. There’s also a script-writing challenge, where fans can submit ideas for the movie and potentially see their work featured in the final film.
What’s Next for “REBELDOGS?”
With the movie in pre-production and the blockchain system already operational, “REBELDOGS” is moving forward quickly. The first coin connected to the film, $REBELDOGE, is set to launch by the end of 2024.
Oerlemans believes the project has a bigger purpose than just creating a movie. “The rest of our ecosystem is coming, and we believe crypto will play a major role. By integrating education into entertainment, we want to prepare people for that future in a way that’s both fun and impactful.”
The project plans to focus first on the U.S. market before expanding to Asia and other regions. This strategy will allow the project to reach areas where interest in cryptocurrencies is already strong while introducing the concept to new audiences through the universal appeal of pets and movies.
