Pudgy Penguins' $PENGU token is now tradable on Robinhood Chain (@RobinhoodCrypto), the Ethereum layer 2, according to an announcement from @pudgypenguins. The project shared the Robinhood Chain contract address (0x74BE72AFFAFbC8de30F0C11247814036314D625f) and urged users to verify any token details exclusively through official channels before transacting. At the time of the announcement, $PENGU was trading roughly 10% higher on the day and 35% higher over the prior week.
A Token With a Growing Multi-Chain Footprint
The PENGU token is the native cryptocurrency of the Pudgy Penguins NFT ecosystem and was initially launched on Solana, with the project since expanding its reach to Ethereum and Abstract Chain. The Robinhood Chain integration adds another venue for retail access alongside those existing deployments.
On the NFT side, the Pudgy Penguins team has used LayerZero's interoperability protocol to extend the Lil Pudgys companion collection across multiple networks. Using LayerZero's omnichain technology, Lil Pudgys can travel seamlessly between multiple chains, starting with Polygon, BNB Smart Chain, and Arbitrum. That cross-chain integration covers the NFT layer; the PENGU token's own multi-chain deployments are separate and include Solana, Ethereum, and BNB Smart Chain, among others.
Two Taipei Events Planned Around FUTUREMODE
Alongside the Robinhood Chain news, @pudgypenguins announced two community events in Taipei timed around the FUTUREMODE festival. On September 5, the team is hosting a pickleball event alongside AvaxTeam1. On September 6, a Pengu Garden holder meetup is planned, co-hosted with Deepcoin and 0G Labs and organised by 0xmedia.
