The Pudgy Penguins NFT collection has hit a record floor price of 21.7 ETH, or approximately $54,529.

With a market cap of nearly $485 million, the collection's value has soared since its debut in July 2021.

Pudgy Penguins may soon overtake Bored Ape Yacht Club in market cap, riding a wave of increased trading activity.

The spike in Ethereum NFT trade volume is the highest since February 2023, driven by sales rather than new mints.

Pudgy Penguins' new venture, Pudgy World, may be influencing its market success, parallel to Yuga Labs' Otherside metaverse development.

The Pudgy Penguins collection has over 4,484 owners and achieved cultural significance, as evidenced by a 400 ETH sale of its rarest NFT.
