The Bulk
Pudgy Penguins, one of the most recognizable names in the NFT space, is pioneering a groundbreaking initiative by launching Pudgy Toys and Pudgy World.
Pudgy Toys are not just physical collectibles. Every purchased toy includes a birth certificate unlocking a unique trait box from Pudgy World's first season. These trait boxes hold a range of common to epic traits that owners can equip on their Forever Pudgy Penguins, leading to an enriched, personalized toy experience.
But that's not all. Each trait is minted on the blockchain as a tradable NFT, and the Forever Pudgy Penguin itself becomes a Soulbound NFT. The minting process is powered by 0xPolygonLabs and is gasless, while the traits marketplace utilizes Origin Protocol's technology.
❗Why It Matters
The launch of Pudgy Toys and Pudgy World represents a pivotal moment in the convergence of the NFT space and mainstream consumer products. Luca Netz has famously said that the toy line represents a "Trojan Horse" for those not in web3 to understand the power of digital collecting, the launch of Pudgy Toys is the first step.
