Abstract coded
[E5] From Creating the Mascot of Crypto to Building the Blockchain for Consumer Crypto
In April 2022, Luca Netz (@LucaNetz) acquired Pudgy Penguins (@pudgypenguins), a collection of 8,888 Ethereum-based NFTs, for 750 ETH—approximately $2.5 million at the time. Fast forward 30 months, and Pudgy Penguins has transformed into one of the most recognizable mascots in the crypto space.
Now, Igloo (@IglooInc), the parent company of Pudgy Penguins, has acquired Frame and is building Abstract (@AbstractChain)—”the blockchain leading the next generation of consumer crypto.”
Today, we explore Luca’s journey in transforming Pudgy Penguins into a global IP and crypto mascot, the rationale behind the Frame acquisition, and how Abstract aims to become the leading blockchain for consumer crypto.
