The NFT’s market dominance has more than tripled since October 2024, when it was as low as a 9.5% share of the market. The increase in Pudgy Penguins’ price comes after a broad NFT <a rel="" href="https://crypto.news/nft-market-rebounds-with-22-volume-surge-in-november-despite-declining-sales-data-shows/">market recovery</a>. Much of the interest surrounding Pudgy Penguins has come from the recent announcement that the Pudgy Penguins ecosystem will launch the <a rel="" href="https://crypto.news/pudgy-penguins-plans-to-launch-native-token-pengu-by-end-of-2024/">Pengu</a> coin ($PENGU) coming on Solana (<a rel="" href="https://crypto.news/price/solana/">SOL</a>) this month.
