Thank you!

I still had to google it. I don't use Tik Tok, so I had no idea what dabloons were. 🤷

How would Tik Tok have helped you?

Well, apparently they exist outside of Tik Tok then?

Anyway, when I duckduckgoed (?) 'dabloons', all the results were more or less:

TikTok Dabloons or TikTok Doubloons are a fictional currency and internet trend on TikTok which started circulating around the social platform in November 2022. Wikipedia

In what other context are 'dabloons' used to indicate something valuable?

Doubloon. You’ve never heard of a doubloon before?

They were the gold currency in Spain in the 16th and 17th centuries. They are what pirates wanted.

You should read more!
