monitor gap · The monitor reads +0.08% and we read +2.48%. The circulating figure it reads has sat near 62.86B PENGU every day since launch on Dec 17 2024: it is launch supply minus the 26.03B team and company share, never lowered for the 12.17B burned in early 2025 and never raised for the monthly releases since the Dec 17 2025 cliff. On-chain, the team and company wallets released 1.56B PENGU between Jul 10 and Oct 8 2026. Our number stays.

No new PENGU can ever be made. The key that could mint more was switched off for good, and the token has no staking rewards or emissions. Supply can only shrink, when holders burn coins.

2. Vesting unlocks
~1.56B PENGU

Team and company coins (29.28% of launch supply, 26.03B PENGU) sit in holding wallets after a one-year lock that ended Dec 17 2025. They now come out on the 17th of each month. Read wallet by wallet on-chain, 1.56B PENGU left those wallets in these 90 days (Jul 17, Aug 17 and Sep 17 2026) — less than the 2.17B the 36-month calendar allows, so about 2.13B is running behind schedule. Three more release days fall in the next 90 days.

3. Foundation + unscheduled unlocks
0

Tracked team holdings: 20.93B PENGU still in the team and company wallets (7.37B in the main one, the rest in about 70 personal grant wallets, a few of 0.92B to 1.17B that have not started selling), counted in the vesting row as they leave. The launch wallet holds 5.01B and pays out about 3.7M a month, but those coins already count as circulating, so they add nothing new. No buyback wallet exists.

checked · Oct 8 2026
4. Long-term locked or bankruptcy
0

No estate, trustee or court payout holds PENGU. A small slice of launch supply went to old FTX token holders, and it was paid at launch in Dec 2024.

Buy pressure
1. Programmatic buyback
0

No contract, company or treasury buys PENGU back. The founder has talked about using business income to buy PENGU, but no program with a size, a date or a wallet has been confirmed, and no such buying shows on-chain. We check again at every rebuild.

checked · Oct 8 2026
2. Protocol fee burn
0

PENGU has no fees to burn. The one big burn — about 12.17B unclaimed airdrop coins — happened in early 2025, long before this window. Since then only holders burn by choice, a few thousand PENGU a week, too small to show.

checked · Oct 8 2026
3. Foundation buy
0

Igloo, the company behind Pudgy Penguins, said on Oct 6 2026 it will close its Abstract network and focus on Pudgy Penguins and PENGU. No purchase of PENGU by the company shows on-chain or in any announcement this window.

checked · Oct 8 2026
4. New long-term lock
0

PENGU has no staking or lock-up program, so nothing takes coins out of the market for a long time.

Today, people are talking about PENGU for one reason:

  1. 1
    The company behind Pudgy Penguins is closing its own blockchain, Abstract.

    On Oct 6 2026 Abstract said its network will shut down on Dec 15 2026, and about $76M was still sitting on it a day later. Igloo, the parent company, says it will now put its full focus on Pudgy Penguins and PENGU, and it chose not to sell a new token to keep the chain alive. People ask whether more attention for PENGU can make up for losing the chain that was built around it.

Every answer here applies basic economic theory — the law of supply and demand — to this coin's data. It is not financial advice. How we read every coin →

How does MrNasdog judge every coin, and why is +2.48% shown in red?

We look at two things, half each: supply and demand. Fewer new coins mean less selling pressure. A meme coin scores 1.5 at most on supply: its team got its coins for free, so no new supply does not make it safe. We also show each coin's age, with a warning when it is younger than 1 year. Demand looks at how much people want the coin now and how much buying could come later. Price Drivers (Beta) are the 2 or 3 things that can move one coin's price that supply and demand miss; they have no score. PENGU supply grows +2.48% in the next 90 days, so it shows in red: more PENGU reaches the market than is removed. Zero or falling supply is always green, any growth is red.
