NFT и IP компания Igloo, Inc. объявила о закрытии потребительской крипто-блокчейн платформы Abstract, сосредоточив персонал и ресурсы на Pudgy Penguins, Pudgy NFT и токене PENGU.Igloo заявила, что целью Abstract было создание блокчейна, ориентированного на потребительские сценарии, и компания вложила в это инженеров, экологические таланты и инфраструктуру. Ее рост был ограничен высокими затратами на операцию независимого блокчейна, ограниченной ликвидностью, слабой экосистемой DeFi и снижением интереса на рынке. За последние два года Igloo понесла убытки в десятки миллионов долларов, чтобы поддерживать работу Abstract, расширяться и искать соответствие продукта рынку и пути к прибыли.Компания отметила, что даже в более обеспеченных компаниях трудно найти соответствие продукта рынку для собственного блокчейна, поэтому закрытие Abstract стало правильным решением. В дальнейшем будет доработан путь бренда от продукта и контента до PENGU, а затем до Pudgy Penguins NFT, сосредоточив внимание на этой роли IP.

Поддерживаемая материнской компанией Pudgy Penguins Igloo Inc., потребительская сеть Ethereum Layer 2 Abstract объявила о поэтапном прекращении своей работы и официально закроет основную сеть 15 декабря 2026 года. Официальная причина заключается в стагнации роста, низкой ликвидности, ограниченной экосистеме DeFi и недостаточном принятии со стороны институциональных инвесторов. Abstract предупреждает пользователей о необходимости вывести свои активы на другую цепочку до даты закрытия, иначе они могут потерять доступ к своим средствам.Abstract сообщает, что в сети было развернуто более 144 приложений, и благодаря потребительскому сотрудничеству с такими брендами, как Red Bull Racing и Disney, было привлечено более 400 000 пользователей, но с момента концепции проекта в отрасли произошли значительные изменения, и независимая цепочка, сосредоточенная на потребительском крипто, в конечном итоге оказалась трудной для поддержания. Igloo в течение последних 18 месяцев продолжала финансировать Abstract, и генеральный директор Лука Нец сообщил, что общие убытки составили десятки миллионов долларов; Igloo теперь перенаправляет ресурсы на Pudgy Penguins и PENGU.В июле 2024 года Igloo завершила финансирование на сумму более 11 миллионов долларов, возглавляемое Founders Fund, для разработки Abstract и привлечения потребителей на блокчейн с помощью распределительных возможностей Pudgy Penguins; основная сеть была запущена в январе 2025 года. Нец заявил, что Igloo в конечном итоге решила не выпускать токены Abstract и не продолжать финансирование этой сети за счет ущерба для бизнеса Pudgy Penguins.

Сообщение ChainCatcher, CEO Pudgy Penguins Лука Нец опубликовал неясный твит, содержащий пару глаз, пингвина и здание, за которым следует стрелка с надписью "Скоро". Хотя текстовой информации нет, рынок интерпретировал это как намек на продвижение компании к IPO.В результате, PENGU в тот день вырос более чем на 17%, а с учетом улучшения общего рынка, за последнюю неделю вырос более чем на 66%. Сообщество интерпретировало здание в посте как фондовую биржу и смысл этого поста как "Смотрите, пингвины скоро выйдут на IPO." Лука Нец в интервью 2025 года заявил, что надеется на публичное IPO компании до 2027 года.
