Pudgy Penguins are not just cute NFT characters anymore. They are now a global brand making big moves. From racing with NASCAR to launching a children’s book, this project is reaching new heights. If you blinked, you may have missed a lot. So let’s catch up on the latest updates in the world of Pudgy Penguins.
PENGU Partners with NASCAR
Yes, you read that right. Pudgy Penguins are hitting the racetrack. A new partnership with NASCAR is now in place. This will introduce the Penguins to racing fans around the world. It’s a fun and unexpected twist for an NFT collection.
Expect to see branded cars, merchandise, and maybe even some Penguins at live events. This could bring more eyes to the PENGU ecosystem. Especially from fans who might not know much about NFTs or Web3 yet.
PENGU Listed on Major Platforms
The $PENGU token has been getting some serious attention. It was recently listed on Upbit, one of South Korea’s top exchanges. This brings in more global exposure and liquidity for the token.
But that’s not all. $PENGU also made its way onto Revolut. This is Europe’s number one finance app. Being featured there puts PENGU in front of millions of users. It’s a big step for mainstream adoption.
I currently have a long open on $PENGU on Bybit. With a nice dip overnight, bid some for another leg up:

Pengu Pez: From NFTs to Candy Aisles
Pudgy Penguins have teamed up with PEZ Candy to launch a custom Pengu Pez dispenser. This move combines nostalgia with digital culture. It’s also another way to connect with fans in the real world.
Collectors are already excited. And for families, it’s a sweet way to introduce kids to the brand. This mix of crypto and candy is clever and charming.
The Penguin ETF Filing
One of the most surprising updates is the ETF filing. CBOE, a major stock exchange, submitted a proposal for the CANARY PENGU ETF. This fund would include both the $PENGU token and Pudgy Penguins NFTs.
If approved, this would be only the second memecoin-style ETF, joining DOGE. It would also be the first to include NFTs. That’s a huge step. It could open the door for more crypto and NFT exposure in traditional finance.
The ETF is now under formal review by the SEC. It’s not guaranteed to pass, but the filing alone is a bold move.
A Children’s Book Deal with Random House
Pudgy Penguins are moving from screens to bookshelves. A new partnership with Random House Kids has been announced. Together, they are launching The Worst Birthday Present Ever, a children’s book featuring Pudgy characters.
The book is available for pre-order on Amazon, Walmart, Barnes & Noble, Target, and other top retailers. This means Pudgy Penguins are reaching families at scale. It’s another way they’re building a household name.
Pengu Clash Game Launches (Soft Release)
Gaming is another big part of the Pudgy strategy. The new mobile game, Pengu Clash, had a soft launch recently. About two million people were on the waitlist. That’s a huge number for a game that’s still in limited release.
Early players are sharing positive feedback. The public launch is coming soon. Keep an eye on this one. It could bring new users into the world of Pudgy, especially younger audiences.
For now, you can track the airdrop and updates on platforms like AirdropAlert.
Earn Airline Miles with PENGU
In a surprising twist, Pudgy Penguins also joined forces with Lufthansa. Through their Miles & More program, shoppers on the Pudgy Shop can now earn miles.
This applies whether you pay with fiat or $PENGU. Every purchase earns points that can be used with over 300 partners. You can redeem them for flights, hotel stays, and experiences.

- Link your accounts through the pop-up.
- Shop and earn.
This is a great way to add real-world value to digital assets.
Pengu Rings the Nasdaq Bell
Another highlight? Pudgy Penguins rang the opening bell at Nasdaq. It happened alongside VanEck, a major investment manager. This isn’t just symbolic. It shows the level of recognition Pudgy Penguins now have in both crypto and traditional finance circles.
Moments like these build credibility. They help bridge the gap between Web3 and the world outside it.
One Billion Daily Views?
Pudgy Penguins aren’t slowing down. The brand is on pace to hit one billion views per day across platforms. That’s an insane number. It shows just how viral and sticky these little penguins are.
Social media is a huge part of their growth. Short videos, animations, and community content continue to boost engagement. As we move toward the end of the year, this momentum may grow even stronger.
Pudgy NFT Floor Remains Strong
While many NFT projects have seen big drops, Pudgy Penguins remain solid. The current floor price sits at 9.5 ETH. That’s impressive, especially in a tough market.
It shows that collectors still believe in the brand. And with all these new partnerships and products, it’s easy to see why.
Final Thoughts: Pudgy Penguins Are Building a Legacy
Pudgy Penguins started as an NFT project with cute artwork. But they’ve evolved into something much bigger. They now span finance, candy, racing, publishing, gaming, and travel rewards.
This kind of real-world expansion is rare in Web3. It proves the team is thinking long-term. And it shows how a strong brand can bring NFTs to the masses.
Whether you’re already part of The Huddle or just curious, it’s worth paying attention. These Penguins are on a mission—and they’re doing it with style.
