Here's why PENGU f**ked and MEME s**ked 👇 If you thought why I should read this post – skip it, you might need some easier content, not the one that will educate you. For others: PENGU vs MEME: A lesson in execution. Both started with strong NFT roots — Pudgy Penguins for PENGU, Memeland for MEME. Both promised Web3 ecosystems, airdrops, and community-driven growth. Only one delivered. MEME – hype without follow-through Launched Oct 23 on Ethereum with: • 9GAG’s massive Web2 audience • NFT base (Captainz, Potatoz, MVP) • Vision for staking, governance & metaverse But gas fees killed micro-use, rollout was slow, Web2 users churned, and the airdrop dumped. Token split: 25% NFT holders • 20% team • 15% liquidity • 10% marketing By July 25: • Price: \0.013 • Market cap: < \500M • Community activity: dead PENGU – execution from day one Launched Dec 24 on Solana. Utility was live instantly — gaming, governance & perks in Pudgy World. Solana’s low fees + speed fit perfectly. The airdrop hit Phantom, Jupiter & Solana-native users. Offline presence (Walmart toys), 1.7M+ IG followers & 50B+ impressions fueled growth. Token split: • 25.9% Pudgy NFT holders • 24.1% Solana wallets • 17.8% team • 12.3% liquidity • 11.4% marketing/dev • Burned leftovers By July 25: • Price: \0.044 • Market cap: \2.75B • Daily volume: \2.75B Takeaway: MEME had hype and couldn't deliver what they promised. PENGU built fast, delivered early, and became culture. P.S. I was a big fan of Memeland and made quite decent money there, so if you want to get in early in the next Memeland or Pudgy Penguins... maybe follow me?(Hanzo ㊗️)
