At present, the cheapest Pudgy Penguin is priced at 27.65 ETH or $108,460, at Ethereum’s price of $3,921.61. Bitcoin (BTC), on the other hand, is currently hovering around $101,445, making some Pudgy Penguin NFT worth more than the world’s largest cryptocurrency.

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 market recovery. Much of the interest surrounding Pudgy Penguins has come from the recent announcement that the Pudgy Penguins ecosystem will launch the Pengu coin ($PENGU) coming on Solana (SOL) this month.

According to Coingecko, Nov. NFT sales volumes surged 57.8% to $562 million, the highest monthly figure since May. Recent market data shows that there were over 12,000 active wallets and over $180 million in sales at the end of November.
