I don’t usually post this kind of stuff. But .. oh well, it’s my birthday today! 🎉 Wanna celebrate this day with my Web3 fam and everyone I’ve connected along the way! Ily🎂❤️ Aging fine as a wine with crypto! Here’s to one more year and getting wiser!

@Hedgeguin @ppmcghee @LucaNetz @pudgypenguins Now this is bullish, my bags are vaulted with Hedge joining the team 🫡

Incredibly honored to announce that I'll be joining the Pudgy Penguins team working on business development, community building and strategy. Day to day I’ll be working as @ppmcghee's right hand man while running missions for @LucaNetz. I've been a diehard Pudgy Penguin for over 3 years and excited to execute on the PENGU Prophecy. What started as a hobby making memes turned into a passion and now, a career. Living proof that if you work for your bags hard enough... your memes might just come true. If you're a protocol, platform, exchange or just doing big things in the space and want to collaborate with Pudgy Penguins, my DMs are open.

Pudgy Penguins X Kung Fu Panda Pudgy Penguins is bringing Pengu into the world of Po, Master Shifu, and Grand Master Oogway from @Dreamworks Animation's Kung Fu Panda. More information to come soon.

When ppl claim this I always wonder how they think it happens, or have unrealistic expectations on how much $1bn actually is. I joined crypto with $200. If I held my initial bitcoin since then and never traded, I would have ~$300k. If, instead, from that moment I sold the top and bought the bottom of every crypto cycle on Bitcoin, and never paid any taxes, I would have ~$6m USD. If I put my entire net worth into the Ethereum ICO and never touched it, today I would have ~$150m pre-tax. While it was definitely possible to have made >$1bn with the opportunities in the market, these versions of reality would also require me to make no mistakes, and have no need to spend $ in real life, or take excessive risk via leverage. In reality, I grew up in a working class family. I didn’t have a trust fund and I had to pay off my student loan myself. I had a job at Tescos while at high school. After university, I needed to pay rent and fund cost of living and eventually buy a place to live. I worked at startups for relatively little $ salary, and while a couple have done okay, they still are illiquid and worth nothing until some exit. Perhaps if I erase a couple of dumb mistakes and drawdowns, or if I had a lil more grind, then my answer would be different today. But it is easy to say this with perfect hindsight vision. It’s easy to see where you could have optimised better, and decisions you made look dumb when the past makes things so obvious. The truth is I have always optimised for enjoying my life and not going to 0. I never felt like I had a safety net, so it was never possible for me to do anything in any other way. I would probably have less money if I had tried to add more risk or chased $ harder, because being all-in with your entire livelihood is a mental battle and I feel I only win that battle when the stakes are lower. In writing this, maybe I do understand why CT folks believe this, because modern CT sees crypto as a late-stage lottery ticket farm, where the optimal strategy is to 5x leverage up your portfolio in a hope of catching a good 20% move and then leaving. Or, literally going all-in on the next coin they heard Ansem is buying. So perhaps to them, looking back at the charts, of course that’s what successful folks did. In reality, I use leverage close to never (and typically to reduce risk rather than add risk — have used it to add risk maybe 3 times in the last 5 years, and maybe 15 times ever). I never go all-in on anything, have only ever done that on BTC and ETH before in the last decade. When I buy other things, I limit risk to tiny amounts, because I treat it as a 0 until proven otherwise (so, always <1% liquid portfolio). Liquid portfolio is also a smaller % of overall portfolio to future-proof against my own fuckups. Obviously I made a lot of money, I have been here 12 years! CT doesn’t want to hear about “getting rich in a decade” though. I am happy with where I am and have never really cared or optimised for maximising $ earnings, but instead having a nice life that lets me enjoy the game we play together.

@SHL_eth @pudgypenguins Big 🤝

I finally did it. I'm now a holder of a big @pudgypenguins, and man, it feels like such an insane step for me! I've been a part of the huddle for 2y+ and always wanted a big, but it was never in my reach. Today, I decided to make the move, and it was a no-brainer. As always, I had to stick with my fav red branding, therefore BG is changed accordingly for the aesthetics. Feels great to be a big holder with the best team, brand and community in crypto. Pudgy Penguins 🐧

@YoPierreNFT @YoPierrette Congratulations! The two of you look beautiful together ❤️

The best day of my life. I love you forever. A couple of happy Pudgy Penguins @YoPierrette

@_jreynolds999 @Tytaninc Allez bro 👊

after 3 years of no climbing (other than with @Tytaninc and @nicrypt20 in KL) i’m back at it in bali!

OG @pudgypenguins holders remember this video. All holders who claimed 3D Pudgy Penguins from our first campaign with @pudgypenguins are eligible for the $HOLO airdrop.

Launched in July 2021, Pudgy Penguins aren't just another PFP collection. They were 8,888 penguins that quickly became a symbol of community in web3 through memes, stickers, GIFs, and company-branded PFPs. When @LucaNetz acquired the project later that year and became CEO, Pudgy was catapulted beyond its PFP origins: expanding into toys on Walmart shelves, licensing deals, gaming, global IP, and even its own token: $PENGU. Pudgy Penguins didn’t just survive the market cycles, they became a cultural icon. Recognizable both by those deeply rooted in crypto and those who’ve never owned a wallet. By adults and children alike. That’s why for our Flagship Collection, this choice felt obvious. To tell the story of web3’s most enduring communities, we had to include a Pudgy.

Today we're introducing: - OS Mobile: a beautiful trading experience powered by AI - Flagship Collection: honoring web3's cultural heritage - Final Rewards Phase: 50% of platform fees funding millions in token & NFT prizes - $SEA Update: details in early October Learn more ⬇️
