Original Article Author: Wenser, Odaily Planet Daily
As BTC's price warms up, the Meme coin track has also seen a resurgence, with the PENGU token, mainly supported by Meme memes and the Pudgy Penguins ecosystem, recently shining—according to OKX data, it has bounced from its bottom price of $0.0037 on April 9 to $0.0134, a staggering 360% increase. At the time of writing, PENGU is currently trading at $0.0124, with a 24-hour increase of 31.43%; additionally, the Pudgy Penguins NFT floor price has risen to 11.5 ETH, a 20% increase compared to the previous period; the trading volume over the past seven days has reached 2,097 ETH, a 242% increase.
After the launch of the Abstract mainnet, the PENGU ecosystem has once again ushered in a second spring, and Odaily Planet Daily will organize the recent developments of the PENGU token in this article for readers' reference.
The Story behind PENGU's Rebound: The Chonky Penguin's Unique Mass Adoption Strategy
The recent rise in the price of the PENGU token is naturally inseparable from the vigorous efforts of Pudgy Penguins CEO Luca Netz.
On April 25, Luca posted on X platform, stating that ardent PENGU supporters can leave their ETH wallet address in the comments section, as the team is preparing something. Subsequently, he emphasized: "Leave your Abstract wallet address." Furthermore, he warned: "If your profile has not mentioned a post about PENGU, then do not comment with your address, as it will be in vain."
Community users speculate that this move may be for early incentives in the Abstract ecosystem or to prepare for the TGE. Currently, the views on these three posts have reached an astonishing 1.6 million, showcasing the enthusiasm of the chonky penguin's meme-like IP and the crypto market for the PENGU token ecosystem.
On April 26, the official Pudgy Penguins account made a post in celebration of "World Penguin Day," and this news was subsequently supported by platforms and institutions such as MetaMask, VanEck, Uniswap, Magic Eden, MoonPay, Phantom, Drip, Binance.US, Gemini, and others.
I have to say, thanks to the Fat Penguin ecosystem's previous outstanding performance, cute IP image, and mature industry relationships, whether it is a crypto asset management institution, a crypto tool platform, or a crypto exchange, they have made many contributions to the external communication and promotion of the PENGU token and the Fat Penguin ecosystem.

Multiple Institutional Platforms Celebrate World Penguin Day Together
Not only that, on April 27, Luca also brought out the "ultimate trump card"—
In a post on Platform X, he stated that if users want to make money by talking about PENGU, they can create UGC, emojis, and Platform X posts around PENGU to receive rewards. By registering on the Whop platform (Odaily Planet Daily note: the platform is a digital goods trading market that serves the creator economy and is known as the "U.S. Edition of Knowledge Planet." The official page shows that there are currently over 10,000+ creators earning income through the platform, earning an average of $7,382 per month, with a total transaction volume exceeding $1.1 billion. The platform previously completed a $17 million Series A financing round in 2023), you can embark on the journey of adding value to PENGU.

Luca Openly Encourages Taking Advantage of Benefits
Thus, PENGU has uniquely embarked on its Mass Adoption attempt.
PENGU's Unique Empowerment: UGC Creator Economy, Earn $2 for Every 1,000 Views
According to information from the Whop platform, users can earn cash incentives by creating PENGU token-related UGC content, meme images, and Platform X posts, receiving $2 for every 1,000 views. This way, Luca has distributed the task of spreading PENGU to the masses through CPM, a true example of "decentralized dissemination."

Whop Platform Information
Previously, according to Fat Penguin Community lead Berko, as of April 25, Fat Penguin-related Meme images had received 10 billion views. The meme images featuring the Fat Penguin character were already able to attract a group of people who like small animals, plush toys, and figurines. Coupled with the ongoing UGC incentives, the PENGU token, and the Fat Penguin-related imagery, perhaps will continue to dominate content platforms, including Platform X, in the near future. This move may further boost the price of the PENGU token and increase mainstream awareness of Fat Penguin and the Abstract ecosystem.
Conclusion: Fat Penguin is using Web2 logic for Web3 growth
Among many crypto projects, Fat Penguin may be a team that truly understands the growth logic of Web2. Previously, in our personal interview with Luca in February of this year, it was mentioned that the size of its IP team is even more than twice that of the crypto business team. The Pudgy Penguins ecosystem has always focused on offline IP, online memes, Abstract live streaming, and other key areas, using Web2 content logic, the real economy, and creator economy to drive brand marketing and token growth.
As the mainstreaming of crypto accelerates, as a U.S.-based crypto company, PENGU and the Abstract ecosystem may also benefit from U.S. policy dividends and institutional support in the future. The future development of Fat Penguin is still worth looking forward to.

Foreign selling in the South Korean stock market accelerates, with cumulative net sales reportedly reaching $75 billion this year
On June 9, The Kobeissi Letter, citing Goldman Sachs data, reported that global investors are selling South Korean stocks at an unusually rapid pace. In the latest trading session, foreign investors sold about $801 million worth of Kospi constituent stocks again; total foreign outflows last week reached about $10 billion, and the market has been in net foreign selling on nearly every trading day over the past month. According to the data cited in the report, foreign investors have sold about $75 billion worth of South Korean stocks so far this year. Meanwhile, South Korean retail and institutional investors together recorded roughly $69 billion in net buying over the same period, suggesting that the market’s main buying support has come from domestic capital rather than returning overseas funds. The information currently disclosed still mainly comes from The Kobeissi Letter’s retelling and Goldman Sachs data summaries, while public details on the statistical period and the specific definition of “selling” remain relatively limited.

Scaling Crypto Derivatives: The Digital Asset Infrastructure Behind High-Volume Trading
In the fast-moving digital asset ecosystem, derivatives platforms face an extreme architectural test. High-leverage futures markets demand more than just standard security—they require absolute operational precision, zero-latency matching engines, and ironclad structural scalability, all while navigating intense market volatility.
As global platforms scale to meet these demands, the industry is shifting away from rigid, monolithic setups toward a more agile, "decoupled" infrastructure philosophy.
The Blueprint for High-Volume Copy TradingFor elite global exchanges like WEEX (founded in 2018), this architectural choice becomes critical when scaling high-volume retail features like social copy trading. When thousands of users automatically mirror the real-time strategies of elite traders simultaneously, it triggers sudden, monumental spikes in concurrent transactional volume.
To prevent execution latency or settlement bottlenecks during these peak volatility events, a platform's primary engine must remain entirely dedicated to risk management, copy-trade synchronization, and order matching.
The Architectural Rule: New-generation platforms must separate front-end user execution engines from heavy backend infrastructural overhead to eliminate operational friction.
By separating these layers, platforms can maintain complete sovereignty over their trading environments and user experiences while strategically aligning with institutional-grade infrastructure ecosystems. This strategic framework allows modern exchanges to leverage advanced Digital Asset Custody infrastructure such as Cobo’s behind the scenes, ensuring that backend wallet management scales elastically alongside trading spikes.
Capitalizing on Market Momentum and 400× LeverageIn a derivatives arena where platforms offer up to 400× leverage on perpetual contracts, capital efficiency and market agility are core business metrics. To capture market momentum, an exchange needs the ability to rapidly expand its asset offerings, supporting everything from legacy crypto assets to sudden, trending altcoins across a massive library of trading pairs.
Adopting a flexible, scalable Wallet-as-a-Service (WaaS) solution such as Cobo’s could completely rewrite the development timeline for high-growth exchanges. Instead of spending months of engineering capital building out custom backend wallet architectures for every new blockchain network, platforms can deploy localized infrastructure in days.
This agility allows platforms to instantly scale their listings to over a thousand trading pairs without compromising security or delaying time-to-market. It mirrors the exact operational advantages seen during high-velocity market events, similar to how advanced wallet infrastructure empowers platforms during sudden asset surges; allowing exchanges to pass that speed and liquidity directly to their global user base.
A Mature Foundation for GrowthThe synergy between trusted infrastructure ecosystems and global trading platforms represents the natural evolution of a maturing crypto market. As WEEX continues to scale its global spot and derivatives offerings for over 6 million users, adopting robust backend paradigms proves that platforms no longer have to compromise between cutting-edge trading velocity and uncompromised structural security.
