Pixel Penguin Sells Out 9,994 VeryChat NFTs After 1M VERY Burn
By Crypto Wire
October 26, 2026
Pixel Penguin is sold out on VeryChat’s in-app NFT Market. Very Network’s official channel said all 9,994 mintable penguins cleared after Monday’s first-come mint opened at 10:00 UTC, calling the drop the first community-registered collection on the venue — not a VeryChat-team mint. Secondary trading on the same NFT Market is next, the channel said, after heavy traffic made the mint less smooth than planned.
Entry rules were hard-coded before the button flipped. Each mint cost 100 VERY held in VeryWallet; in-app mining balances did not count. Accounts were capped at two penguins. Mint banners sat on Mining & Rewards pages and at the top of NFT Market under Pay. The collection page puts total supply at 10,000 with symbol PPENG, 9,994 in the public mint, and five one-of-one animated Genesis pieces mixed into that mint — while the project’s own site frames rarity tiers for flex, not for promised rewards.
The listing fee left an on-chain receipt. Very Network said the 1,000,000 VERY NFT Market registration fee was burned; Veryscan shows a successful transfer of about 999,999.99999999998 VERY to the dead address 0x000…dEaD in block 6281492 at about 06:38 UTC on October 26 (hash starting 0x983698). Attribute the sellout and traffic apology to the official channel; this desk did not audit wallet-level mint fills inside VeryChat.
After the sellout, the project site flipped from “zero perks” mint copy into a timed secondary lane. ppeng.org posted a first Antarctica 8-Game Arcade Olympics with leaderboards reset Monday, October 26 at 14:59 UTC and a final snapshot November 2 at the same clock, plus a prize pool that names a 1/1 animated Genesis NFT for overall first and about 154,000 VERY across places two through fifty. The same notice sets creator royalty on VeryChat NFT Market to 0% for one week through that November 2 snapshot — a fee holiday for late buyers chasing a penguin number. Claim rules still require holding the winning edition and verifying it as a VeryChat hexagon profile photo at snapshot; treat those as project terms, not a venue guarantee.
Keep the risk labels in view. Very Network and the project both call Pixel Penguin a personal project by Ahndoge (@happy): VeryChat registers the collection on NFT Market and says it is not responsible for NFT value. The project’s own mint note repeats zero roadmap, zero rewards, and zero utility beyond PFP flex — then layers the arcade and fee holiday as post-sellout extras. Mid-mint, the site also acknowledged a VeryWallet “payment request has expired” error while traffic spiked. Do not invent filled-wallet counts, floor prints, or a live secondary volume tape until the market opens and prints one.
This chapter sits apart from other free-mint weekends already on the board. Robinhood Chain sellouts such as Pharaoh God Mob and Farming Season live on their own URLs; Pixel Penguin’s Monday fact is a VeryChat NFT Market community listing that cleared 9,994 units after a verified ~1M VERY burn, with secondary and a week of 0% creator fees still ahead.
Venue watch: Watch when Pixel Penguin secondary listings actually unlock on VeryChat NFT Market, whether the week-long 0% creator-fee window holds through the November 2 snapshot, and whether mint-time wallet errors leave any unresolved purchase disputes on the venue.
Bottom line: Pixel Penguin’s first community mint on VeryChat NFT Market is sold out at 9,994 after a verified ~1M VERY listing-fee burn, with secondary trading and a week of 0% creator fees still ahead.
