NiftyNoon: The Rise of Pudgy Penguins and Memeland

Pudgy Penguins hits ETH all time highs while anticipation builds for the Memeland Captainz mint (January 3, 2023)

Nifty Thought

• Pudgy Penguins is hitting all-time highs in ETH terms is the ultimate demonstration of crypto Twitter’s influence over the market. Although the project is fundamentally the same today as it was a few weeks ago, the public support of notable crypto opinion leaders has catapulted the project past blue chips such as Clone X and Doodles. The Pudgy pump is likely to continue so long as the project continues to capture praise and attention from crypto influencers.

• The anticipation for the upcoming Memeland Captainz mint has reached new heights with Memeland Potatoz achieving an all-time high floor price. Most Potatoz have been staked since day one and have never been sold. This both demonstrates the level of conviction holders have in the project but also the fragility of the ecosystem overall. Current sentiment is deservedly positive but any negative catalysts could represent the potential for huge downward pressure on prices as seen with similar NFT-staking projects such as Moonbirds. Nonetheless, the Memeland team as so far excelled in keeping their holder base happy and their upcoming Captainz project is likely to be the most successful mint for the foreseeable future.
