Three animal meme coins pop as they join Robinhood’s crypto menagerie
Robinhood added three new cryptocurrencies to its trading platform this morning: pengu, pnut, and popcat. All three are up on the news today.
(Robinhood Markets Inc. is the parent company of Sherwood Media, an independently operated media company.)
Pengu, the official coin of the NFT collection Pudgy Penguins, has a market cap of $390 million. The NFT collection was launched in July 2021 and the coin followed in December 2024.
The cat-based meme coin popcat has a market cap of $173 million and was launched in December 2023 on the solana blockchain.
The penguins and cats are joined by a meme coin whose mascot is “Peanut the Squirrel,” aka pnut, also on the solana blockchain. It was launched in October 2024 after the passing of the real-life Peanut. The coin has a market cap of roughly $175 million.
