🐧 What does it really take to survive multiple crypto cycles — and build a global brand in the process?

In this special episode of the RWA Igloominati Interview Series, we sit down with PP, Community Lead at Pudgy Penguins, to explore the wild journey from ICOs to Walmart toys, meme coins to meaningful impact. We cover how Pudgy built one of the strongest communities in crypto, launched real-world toys, and leveraged NFT IP into cultural relevance.

💡 Key Takeaways:
  • How PP got into crypto during the 2017 ICO boom (and survived it)

  • Why Pudgy Penguins became the most resilient NFT brand — and how Rogs changed everything

  • The evolution of community-led building vs. team-led execution

  • The behind-the-scenes story of Pudgy World, Pingu Token, and what’s next for toys as RWAs

  • How to turn real-life skills into crypto success (PP’s path from videographer to Community Lead)

  • Insights on community tone, vibes, and meme strategy

  • Advice for young degens and why age & experience are underrated in Web3

  • Why muting, not arguing, is the true secret to mental survival

Whether you’re building, collecting, or navigating your second (or fifth) cycle, this one’s for you.
