Pudgy Penguins announced on Tuesday that its NFT collection is now available on Magic Eden. Better yet, interested buyers can purchase the Pudgy Penguins NFTs on Magic Eden with $SOL, not just $ETH.
Magic Eden announced new functionality in August where buyers can now purchase NFTs on its platform with $SOL, $ETH, or even with a credit card in $USD. The functionality is powered by Crossmint, a new NFT platform that provides the ability for users to buy NFTs "without crypto wallets or cryptocurrency."
The announcement comes a day after Lil' Pudgys holders were told they would be able to use their IP on Pudgy Collecibles.
The Pudgy Penguins announced a new set of collectibles to come to its ecosystem. As a part of the toy line associated with PMI Toys, Pudgy Penguins will be launching exclusive collectibles that will feature Lil Pudgys licensed NFTs.
The collectibles will be added to Pudgy Plushies in the diverse line of toys to be included in the upcoming collection.
Pudgy Penguins made headlines and captured the attention of NFT holders after announcing that holders can now license their Pudgy Penguin NFTs for IRL toys back in July.
At the time of this writing, Lil' Pudgys have a floor price of 0.22 ETH.
Pudgy Penguins is releasing a children's book in collaboration with Green Kids Club, according to an announcement from the project.
