PENGU rebounds over 260%, Pudgy Penguins expands across multiple lines, and market attention heats up Recently, Pudgy Penguins has demonstrated multi-dimensional growth, from token price and NFT to brand expansion. CoinGecko data shows that $PENGU, after dropping over 90% since the beginning of this year, has recently rebounded approximately 265.8%, with a market cap increase of nearly $580 million. The end of the airdrop claim period and the burning of unclaimed tokens have effectively alleviated selling pressure. Coupled with integrations like Helio Pay and listings on Robinhood and Coinbase, these factors have supported the token's price recovery. The NFT sector is also warming up. NFT Price Floor data indicates that Pudgy Penguins' floor price has increased by 18.43% over the past 7 days, with trading volume rising nearly 290%. According to CryptoSlam, the series achieved a trading volume of $72 million in the first quarter of this year, ranking among the top in the market. In terms of merchandise, Pudgy Toys has been distributed to over 10,000 stores worldwide, with total sales exceeding 2 million units and social media exposure surpassing 10 billion views. In brand expansion, Pudgy Penguins has partnered with PEZ, LINE FRIENDS, VANDYTHEPINK, Lotte, and others this year to continuously enhance market recognition. Nearly 70% of the team members are focused on IP development, reflecting their strategic priority. Additionally, community incentive programs such as Whop rewards, Pengu Emojis downloads exceeding 100,000, and the upcoming Pengu Bull SBT further energize the community ecosystem. However, it is worth noting that the $PENGU token price and NFT performance remain influenced by the overall crypto market, with short-term volatility being high. Moreover, the PENGU ETF application submitted by Canary Capital has not yet been approved, so related catalysts should be observed cautiously.

MoonPay acquired Solana payment processor Helio to strengthen its crypto commerce capabilities and is testing zero-fee transactions through its "Balance" product. Soto-Wright predicts that DEXs will surpass CEXs, the DeFi market share will continue to expand, and MoonPay may launch a stablecoin to further its strategic layout.
