The well-known non-fungible token (NFT), Pudgy Penguins recorded an incredible amount of sales with an increase of 578.10% in 24 hours.
This unexpected spike was apparently caused by a map of Antarctica shared by Pudgy Penguins via social media Twitter last night.

There has been speculation linking the map to the launch of the metaverse.
However, until now there has been no confirmation or confirmation from Pudgy Penguins regarding this matter.
Previously, Yuga Labs had launched a metaverse, Otherside which was inspired by the NFT Bored Ape Yacht Club (BAYC) collection.
Perhaps, Pudgy Penguins has a plan to follow in BAYC's footsteps but it's not clear whether it's true or not.
At the time of writing, the floor price for this penguin collection is worth 2.44 ETH ($7,332.40, equals RM 31,606.49).
