  • Ether is down over $7.5% and is trading above $3,100.
  • Ether's decline comes as ETHE outflows continue and tech giant Nvidia trades in the red.

Ether is down over 7.5% in the first hours of East Asia's business day, trading hands above $3,100 as the market continues to be concerned about outflows from Grayscale's converted Ethereum Trust ETF (ETHE).

Market data from SoSoValue shows that ETHE had a net outflow of over $327 million on Wednesday, taking the total since inception to $800 million. This is similar to the first weeks of Grayscale other major crypto trust, GBTC, when it experienced heavy outflows during the first weeks of the bitcoin ETFs trading earlier this year.

ETH is down 6% in the last month, but still up 72% in the last year.

Pudgy Penguins: A New Blueprint for Tokenized Culture

Pudgy Title Image

Pudgy Penguins is building a multi-vertical consumer IP platform — combining phygital products, games, NFTs and PENGU to monetize culture at scale.

What to know:

Pudgy Penguins is emerging as one of the strongest NFT-native brands of this cycle, shifting from speculative “digital luxury goods” into a multi-vertical consumer IP platform. Its strategy is to acquire users through mainstream channels first; toys, retail partnerships and viral media, then onboard them into Web3 through games, NFTs and the PENGU token.

The ecosystem now spans phygital products (> $13M retail sales and >1M units sold), games and experiences (Pudgy Party surpassed 500k downloads in two weeks), and a widely distributed token (airdropped to 6M+ wallets). While the market is currently pricing Pudgy at a premium relative to traditional IP peers, sustained success depends on execution across retail expansion, gaming adoption and deeper token utility.
