Pudgy Penguins Joins U.S. Crypto Policy Circle as ETF Hopes Rise
Pudgy Penguins (PENGU), the NFT brand turned token, has officially entered the U.S. regulatory conversation.
The project announced it has joined a federal advisory group focused on shaping cryptocurrency and digital asset policy—marking a rare move for a meme-born asset in Washington.
According to the team’s statement, representatives have met with the Trump administration multiple times over the past three months. Now, they’ve been formally invited to help shape virtual asset legislation as part of the advisory body.
The announcement comes just as the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) begins reviewing a spot ETF application for PENGU, filed by Canary Capital. With growing institutional attention and formal policy involvement, expectations for approval have gained momentum.
PENGU’s price has soared on the news, rallying 120% over the past month and currently trading around $0.033. Analysts suggest the token is benefiting from rising investor confidence as its brand gains both political and financial traction.

Alex is Editor-in-Chief of Coindoo and co-founder of Millennial Media Group, with nearly a decade of experience covering financial markets - crypto first, then everything else. It started in 2016 with Bitcoin. Like most people at the time, he didn't fully understand it - so he kept digging. Blockchain, tokenomics, the projects, the cycles. That curiosity never stopped, and eventually pulled him into traditional markets too: equities, commodities, macro. Not because he left crypto behind, but because you can't properly understand one without the other. What drives him is straightforward: he wants to know why something is happening, not just that it's happening. Most market coverage stops at the headline - price up, price down, here's a chart. Alex finds that kind of reporting actively unhelpful. If you walk away from an article without understanding the mechanism behind the move, what did you actually learn? He holds a degree in Tourism from New Bulgarian University - not the most obvious path into financial markets, but markets have a way of pulling in people who are simply too curious to stay out. He has authored over 200 in-depth analyses and more than 10,000 articles across crypto and traditional finance. He still thinks every day in markets teaches him something new. That's probably why he hasn't stopped.
