Pudgy Penguins Just Exploded 330%… But Is It Too Late?

Who would even believe it? 330% gains from a project about a penguin. Pudgy Penguins just exploded and it's not just hype. They make real world moves and moves in the Salana ecosystem. And it might be the most unexpected web 3 success story of the year. But what's really behind the pump and what makes this project tick? Let's break it down. Welcome in underground family. We're going to get right into it. All right. First and foremost over on Coin Gecko, let's get into some tokconomics. Sitting at number 61 by market cap, we have Pudgy Penguins with the ticker PNGU at about 037 or almost 4 cents. Got the monthly chart pulled up here and that is 330% on the month with a market cap of 2.3 billion. Tokconomics are important. I'm not a financial advisor. Anything I say isn't financial

advice and if you need a financial advisor, go find one. That's what I have to say about that. Anyways, 88.8 billion in max supply, 62.8 billion in circulating supply. What does that even mean? Max supply is how many tokens there are. Circulating supply is how many of them are out. The disparity or the difference between the two or how many are still coming out? We don't know when that is with a project like Budgey Penguins. Very memeish, very meme culture, but has a lot going on. Much more than your average meme coin, right? that's why it has such a high market cap. But we don't know that information. Maybe we'll come across it on their website, but I can't promise you that we will. But we come over to the monthly chart and you'll see we started the month

out June 22nd at about 0.0078 or almost 0.008. And that would be less than a penny. And we ran all the way up to almost four pennies. 038. And that's a great return sitting with a little bit of a pullback again at 330%. Contract is a Salana address. This is in the Salana ecosystem. Salana ecosystem seems to be waking back up. So we got their website. We'll be going over that. Twitter. I love when they have their YouTube. A lot of coins do not have a YouTube channel. Pudge Penguins does. So check them out on YouTube. And most importantly on our Coin Gecko tokconomics review, always throw in there, where can you get this coin? It's a pretty popular coin with a big market cap. So, I think you can find it pretty much anywhere you look. But some

of my favorite places, uh, Binance, if you're not in the United States, I'm sure it's on Coinbase. Yep, here we are with Coinbase. Mexi Global. I love to see Bitcat is very popular. So again, you can pretty much get this coin anywhere that you look for it. All right, for their website now, Memecoins are about community, culture, narrative, artwork, and they have gone above and beyond all of that. I think it's hilarious. My son bought one of their toys in merchandise in a Target, and then I realized a couple of days after he did it that this was affiliated with the Pudgy Penguin Project, which I was already familiar with, but didn't recognize it on the shelf. You don't expect to find those type of things there. But anyways, I'm not sure who the original founder of this is,

but from a different article that I pulled from today, it says that the community ousted the founder back in January. Earlier this month, the Pudgy Penguin NFT series was acquired by a LA based entrepreneur, Luca Net. I hope I said that right. Shout out to him for taking over the project and trying to take it to some new heights. Right. So, let's get right into their website because there is a lot to unpack and I hate making really long videos that people don't want to watch. The Huddle. Pudgy Penguin is a global IP focused on proliferating the penguin meme tick culture and good vibes. All right, that's a heck of a sentence to start out with. Again, awesome artwork. They have all of these Pudgy Penguin characters. That's why they have a ton of NFTTS and instore toys and

merchandise. They are really doing far more than your average memecoin. Pudgy Penguins. Welcome to the world of Pudgy Penguins, a web 3born brand that fosters creativity, freedom, and community. The Pudgy Penguin brand produces content, merchandise, toys, digital collectibles. We believe in the power of play and imagination. We're committed to helping you unlock the inner child, and it's a very cold place, but you'll be warm with your new favorite penguin family. I like the the energy that they're giving off here. really reminds me a lot of the board ape yach club, but kind of more fun and creative and maybe not so uh you know high class uh not so richy as the persona that they try to put off with the board penguins. Enough of that though. The penguin prophecy, a really interesting little story there. Let's go ahead

and hop over to that. Open it in a new tab. And I thought this was interesting because it just gives you a little bit of backstory about the actual project. And I thought it was a good backstory and not just a bunch of fluff, right? So, Pudgy Penguins began as an NFT collection in 2021. Shortly after their concept, Pudgy Penguins became an instant sensation during the beginning of the NFT craze with prints in the New York Time featuring CNBC and memes that took over the internet. Today, Pudgy Penguins have established themselves as the strongest community in crypto and Penguin has evolved into a global culture phenomenon. With the toys in millions of homes and over 50 billion social media views, 50 billion social media views is pretty crazy. And a dedicated following of millions, it is clear that the

world is enamored with the Penguins. No brand or character Yeah. No brand or character with crypto origins is more widespread and beloved, making Pangu the face mascot of crypto. That is pretty awesome. And you come down here to what they call the great blizzard. This is what I thought was most interesting. However, the Penguin story wasn't always one of success and positivity. After the initial hype, Pudgy Penguins faced a challenging period dubbed the great blizzard. For six months, they were mocked by established NFT projects, becoming the laughingtock of the crypto community and dismissed as a fleeting trend. This har this harsh reality caused the community to revolt, forcing communityled takeover that redirected Pudgy Penguin towards its greatness. A new chapter. This moment in history ultimately led to the Punge Penguins Pudgy Penguins to become the most successful community takeover

of all times. Pangu represents a lot of things from universal appeal to meme tick culture. But as it comes, Pangu is a symbol of the underdog, the little guy who everyone counted out but triumphed against all odds. And with the market cap they have today, I would say that they did that. And here's their manifesto. By holding a Pangu, you become the beacon of meme tick culture, a spread of good vibes, and an active participant in the remarkable underdog story. Pangu is the token for the people by the people and serves as a way for the everexpanding group of hundreds of millions of Pudgy Penguin fans to align themselves with the story and future of the Pudgy Penguins. Believe in Pangu, believe in you. Well marketed, great marketing, right? We got tokconomics, liquidity, public goods, proliferation, FTT holders, company,

and you can pause this and take a deeper look at it. I already read quite a bit and I don't want to make this video too crazy long. Back to the other side of it is they have a shop and I want to just show you a couple of things real fast about it. They got some new merchandise in. Obviously, I told you they have toys in store. I didn't see many of those in their shop. Here are some new items they have going on. Hats, hoodies, things you would expect as apparel from pretty much any place or company. We don't want to spend too much time on that. Great artwork with the little dancing penguin. It's hilarious. Little Pudgies. Little Pudgies are a 22,222 Pudgy of Northern Descent. Little Pudgies are cute, and adorable, but don't let their

looks fool you. They are fierce, mighty, and are allies in the fight against the evil bears of negativity. There's some narrative. There's some storyline, maybe you could even say some lore. There are bears of negativity. Who are their enemies? Claim free little pudgies to vibe with your Pudgy penguins you own. So, this is seems like an add-on. You can connect your wallet and you can claim a little Pudgy for what that is worth. Pudgy media, Pudgy Discord. Click there and go check out their Discord. I'm not going to include that in this review because that would just be too much information. Pangu Kindness, find out how Pangu is changing lives. That might be something you would be interested in checking out. Again, this is pudgyp.com. It's not hard to get here. And with that said, I I'm going to

wrap up the review of their website. Website looks great. Very uh bullish in my opinion. And I think this is probably going to be one of the number one performing meme coins projects in this bull run. That's just my opinion, though. If you were interested, I don't want to leave you hanging on the token unlock part of things. So 703.5 million Pangu December 17th, 2025. Not that terribly far away, but also not that many coins. Only n2% or.9% of the total supply. Uh mo most likely company allocations as per their vesting schedule. So it seems like this might just be normal for them to put out small amounts. Doesn't seem like it would really affect the price very much. And uh do with that information as you will. All right, just for fun, let's take a quick look at

their Twitter, their X account here. Got it from Coin Gecko and they got the gold check mark. Believe this to be the most legitimate Twitter that they have. Although on a project this big, sometimes they'll have multiple accounts that are all legitimate now. 711.3,000 followers. That is pretty good. Join July 2021. They've been around for a while. They got their Discord link. And we will come right down here to some of their content. Looks like crypto mascot. I mean, again, they have some they have some money to put in this project. Oh, we got some of the picture of the physical little pangoo. That's awesome. I really wanted to show that in the video and I wasn't finding them anywhere. So, vending machines, maybe there's a vending machine out there near you where you could win yourself one. Says

this was in Hershey Park in Pennsylvania. So, if you're anywhere now near there, go get one. Do it for me. All right, let's see if they have anything interesting. A ComicCon in San Diego. I mean, they're doing lots of stuff. That's why I'm showing this to you guys in the going through their Twitter is just because they do a lot of things. I want to find somewhere they had lit up a tower. Here it is. They had lit up a tower with the Pudgy Penguin symbol. Not sure exactly where this was and I don't want to take the time to dig for it, but pretty cool. Don't see that. I don't think I've ever even seen that from Dogecoin or anything of that nature. So, they are doing some big things, right? And again, it was like a 2.3

or$ 2.6 billion market cap. Can't exactly remember, but uh Dogecoin is a $40.6 billion market cap. Why is Dogecoin not doing stuff like this? I'm not gonna rant on that, but they really should get their act together. Pangu is doing it right. Yeah, look at those t-shirts. Really cool stuff. Don't want to spend a ton of time on that. It's usually the part where I give my gut rating. I got to I got to give a score that I don't usually ever give out. And that is a 10 out of 10. 10 out of 10. I think this project will do phenomenal. Now, how much money would it make you if you put in right now? I don't know. And I'm not a financial adviser, so I wouldn't tell you what to do with your money, but speculatively, I

think it's pretty promising into the bull run, into the end of the bull run. Obviously, we're already in there. All right, enough of me rambling. Crypto Ron out. I hope you enjoyed the video. Like, share, subscribe, send this to somebody who loves crypto, and I'll catch you in the next one.
