#SideHustle Just had a solid week of Revenue (almost $14k) from my @amazon store. It's been a nice extra income in 2024. My new @pudgypenguins bath toy is starting to gain some traction, 26 reviews and all of them ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ nothing is cuter than a @LilPudgys go read the reviews.

Just helped @AdamWeitsman secure the left facing penguin.
We are meeting later this week for dinner but I’ve had the pleasure of talking with him over the past few months on his vision and love for the NFT space.
If you’re a penguin or just love NFTs make sure you’re following Adam. There’s not a better guy in the space
This aquisition is the perfect launching point for @penguingrails.
DM us if you’re hunting your forever penguin.
Simple… Really have always greatly respected and admired @LucaNetz for what he has built with @pudgypenguins. #6873 left facing 1/1 grail added to the collection tonight. Thankful for @Chubbicorn230 for your trust and for @ppmcghee for making it happen. My goal is someday to bring any and all NFT communities together supporting each other. Hopefully in the future every Ape will own a Pudgy and every Pudgy will own an Ape. Markets may currently be bleak but the future has never been brighter IMO ….. 💚
This is a huddle appreciation post 🐧💙
Tag penguin that makes your day and say why

Burning tokens, credits and time just to make people smile
This is such a huddle love language
made this little video for you all with my limited skill
the cutest part of Pudgy is still the people 🐧💙
Appreciate you all 🙏🏻🐧
I spent 10 years learning how to make strangers feel like family
Then I brought that skill to @pudgypenguins and it changed everything
Here's the story:
My family owned properties, hotels, restaurants and entertainment venues across Asia. Growing up, I learned from my dad negotiates in meetings to memorize the names of guests and even details like their dietary restrictions
By the time I was managing things myself, I understood something most people in business miss: the small stuff is the big stuff. A birthday call matters more than a pitch deck. True heartfelt intention matters the most 💙
I carried that everywhere. But I had no idea it would end up being the most valuable skill in crypto
My bestie @pudgyray got me into buying pudgy penguins nft right when Luca Netz bought the project with $2.5M and gave all of us a reason to believe again
It wasn't just about the penguin it was about finding a place that felt like home
And I could see it in action as the people in the community were different. They actually cared about each other
I started as @pudgymalaysia lead, growing the community from 30 to 300 members in a short time. Not long after, I joined the Pudgy team and eventually stepped into the role of Asia Lead and President @penguasia
What followed was the craziest year of my life, managing partnerships with global legacy brands, 100+ meetups across KL, Singapore, Tokyo, Hong Kong, Korea in cafes to big events, all this on a limited marketing budget
Among all the partnerships, one that meant a lot to me was with BE@RBRICK Japan’s biggest collectible brands
Their first ever collaboration with an NFT project, limited to just 800 pieces, their lowest supply
It took six months of showing up, building trust and proving that we’re not just a project but a real brand with real people behind it 🐧
Three years later, I'm still here building belongingness for ones who rep Pudgy in any way
I'll be sharing what I've learned about bullding across cultures, closing brand partnerships that wasn’t easy for young IP and why I genuinely think Pudgy Penguins becomes one of the most recognizable IPs in the world
I've got a lot to say. This is the start💙
