From 366 activities · Apr 2026Pudgy Penguins is a pioneering NFT collection that evolved into a global consumer brand, bridging Web3 and mainstream markets through physical toys in Walmart, strategic retail partnerships, and cultural collaborations. Known for strong branding, consistent execution, and a deeply loyal community, the project survived early leadership challenges and was revitalized under Luca Netz, who expanded it beyond digital art into merchandise, games, the $PENGU token, and the Abstract L2 blockchain. Praised for generous airdrops, authentic community-first values, and rare durability across market cycles, it stands as one of the most successful and recognizable IP projects in crypto.

Mike | heymike.sol · 1404· 1y ago20“The Penguins will still pull ahead”Pudgy Penguins have gone from cute pictures to a recognizable Web3 brand with global ambitions. Now it's not just an NFT collection, but a project with toys on Walmart shelves, a clear IP strategy, and plans to attract new users through Pudgy World. The team demonstrates attention to the community: there have been generous drops and attempts to maintain value even in difficult market conditions. Their approach to branding and working with culture makes the project one of the most reliable and long-term in the NFT scene. At the end of 2024, they launched the $PENGU token (unfortunately, I received the minimum airdrop, but still) — the start was loud, with a capitalization of over $2 billion, but then the price fell sharply by more than 60%, and with it, the penguins themselves sank. Still, despite such volatility, the project stands out for its IP roadmap, partnerships with mainstream brands, and the trust it has already earned. Translated with DeepL.com (free version)

ZRGq · 1442· 1y ago20“Web3 native brand NFTs, games, merch & engaged community”Pudgy Penguins have grown from a struggling NFT collection into a trusted, inspiring Web3 brand. Under Luca Netz’s leadership, they’ve transformed setbacks into achievements—landing toys and merch in Walmart, creating a vibrant game world, and rewarding holders with a successful memecoin. What makes Pudgy special isn’t just the art; it’s the storytelling, IP expansion, and strong community culture. The launch of the $PENGU token on Solana and the upcoming Pudgy World show they’re building for the long term, not chasing hype. The community, The Huddle, is engaged, creative, and genuinely proud, making Pudgy Penguins one of the few NFT-origin projects that truly combines culture, utility, and lasting impact.

Killstory · 1386· 1y ago20“Great community and the best NFT collection ever”The huge drop to active Solana users and NFT holders attracted a lot of interest from the community, even though I knew about them before all this. My journey in mastering Pudgy Penguins began quite a long time ago and I say with confidence that penguins are the best team and community in WEB-3. IRL events, toys and figurines all over the world, one of the most recognizable NFT collections and a huge ecosystem connecting people all over the world. I am grateful for all that they do.Pudgy Penguins showed a real performance in the world of NFT.

Stasik ✂️ · 1310· 1y ago20“The Best”One of a few collections which has survived several crucial dumps, extreme amount of hate aswell. Congratz to Luca and the community, i'm sure Penguins will shine and 100k$ per 1 is question not if but when. At least top-3 strongest community in whole crypto, a lot of benefits from holding for each member. Only huge respect for them!

MeredithFrost · 1290· 1y ago20“The best in web3”Man, the only thing I can say is why I didn't buy and overinvest my capital in these penguins before. It's undoubtedly the most powerful and influential NFC collection on Web3, and they're already becoming a brand in the real world. It's strange to say the real world and differentiate it from crypto, because in reality they're already combining, and one of the bridges is undoubtedly this brand, Pudgy. We all see these penguins everywhere; they're huge, they're creative, they're strong; if they fall, it's to rise even stronger.

MCG.eth · 1265· 1y ago20“OG TIER-1 IP NFT COLLECTION”The history and development of Pudgy Penguins and the collection is simply amazing, the legend in which wasn't believed, but the people who took on the project proved otherwise. Thanks to Luca and the community, Penguins became the face of this space and crypto. From 0 to great IP, NFT collection and token. Also, i'm holder of pengu and i'm actively contributinf to their new consumer chain and taking part in XP point system

samurai` · 1393· 1y ago20“One Love Penguins”I was introduced to Pudgy Penguins 2 years ago while passing by some plush toys in a store, they immediately caught my attention with their cuteness, I immediately wanted to know who these cute penguins were, who invented them and what the idea behind them was. This introduction led me to the world of NFT. I was very surprised how my usual trip to the store opened up a whole new world for me, which I still find myself in today. Thank you for this, Pudgy Penguins team

𝓡•𝓞•𝓜•𝓘 · 1437· 1y ago20“Penguinmania”The most hyped nft collection at the moment. They have really succeeded in building their brand outside of web3. They also distributed a huge airdrop, and since then their token has been rising rather than hitting rock bottom. It will be interesting to see what happens to the nft and token after the abstract tge.

andrusiak · 1381· 1y ago20“Leadership, Community, IP Building Defined”What Luca, Peter and the team have built since buying the Pudgy Penguins project is nothing short of remarkable. The just rang the NASDAQ bell for pete's sake. Billions of views/impressions a day. Toy lines and merch across some of the biggest retailers all around the world. A mobile app that has millions of downloads already. Social followings in the millions. The current and future face of crypto.
