The PENGU Spot ETF is the first NFT-based crypto ETF application, as Canary Capital aims to merge NFTs and DeFi—will the SEC approve this groundbreaking move

January 2024 marked a pivotal point in the crypto industry: the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) approved a bunch of 

 (ETFs) after a decade of resisting it. Later that year, several Ethereum (ETH) Spot ETFs were also approved. These early successes encouraged investment funds focused on digital assets to seek approvals for other 

 (AVAX) and other high-cap cryptos have ended up on the SEC's desk in recent months.

Until Mar 20, 2025, one thing had never occurred: an 

-based crypto ETF application. Such a move was thought to border on impossibility, given how stringently and at length the SEC evaluated ETF applications even for established fungible cryptos. And yet, the Canary Capital investment manager submitted an application to the SEC for approval of the first NFT-focused crypto ETF product, the PENGU Spot ETF, triggering a mini-revolution in the emerging space at the junction of crypto and traditional finance.

If approved, this ETF will be the first of its kind in the industry, based on a mix of 

. Many observers expect Canary Capital to struggle mightily for SEC endorsement of its revolutionary product. Nevertheless, the SEC now has a track record of approving crypto ETFs — which raises hopes for both the altcoin ETFs mentioned above and the PENGU Spot ETF application.

The PENGU Spot ETF is a proposed exchange-traded fund (ETF) product introduced by the Canary Capital investment management firm, and is currently awaiting approval by the SEC. 

 on Mar 20, 2025, making this the first crypto ETF product with an NFT component that’s vying for the approval of America's primary financial regulator. The ETF has been registered in the US state of Delaware.

The Pengu Spot ETF's portfolio is envisioned as consisting primarily of PENGU tokens that will make up anywhere between 80% and 95% of total assets held, with the rest allocated to Pudgy Penguins NFTs. Small portions of Solana's SOL coins and Ethereum's ETH tokens will also be included in order to facilitate transactions and liquidity support, as PENGU tokens are mainly issued on the Solana blockchain, and Pudgy Penguins NFTs are an Ethereum-based collection. 

Since Canary Capital will hold these assets and periodically rebalance the portfolio, gas fee payments on Solana and Ethereum will apply, with fees paid in SOL and ETH, respectively.

Launched in 2021 on Solana, the Pudgy Penguins NFT collection consists of 8,888 items, each depicting a cute penguin with a distinct combination of five different traits. In December 2024, the project introduced a related fungible cryptocurrency, the Ethereum-based PENGU token. As of Apr 2, 2025, PENGU is a smaller-cap asset, ranked 191st in the crypto market, with a total 

 of $319 million. In contrast, Pudgy Penguins are among the leading projects in the NFT space, ranked second among all NFT collections, with a market cap of $155 million.

Canary Capital's application to the SEC is unique in two ways: it’s the first ETF with an NFT component, and it marks the first time ETF approval has been sought for a relatively smaller-cap cryptocurrency, PENGU, which isn’t even among the top 100 crypto assets by market cap. All of the other crypto ETF applications approved by the SEC (or currently vying for approval) are based on high-cap, leading assets that are typically ranked within the top 30.

As of Apr 2, 2025, the SEC has had the application for the PENGU Spot ETF application for just two weeks. The regulator has up to 240 days to review such applications, although historically, the SEC has pondered over crypto ETF applications for years. Now, however, the string of Bitcoin and Ethereum Spot ETF approvals in 2024 raises hopes that newer submissions may be subject to an already established evaluation framework — and thus greenlighted much faster.

At the moment, the SEC is also considering spot ETF applications for several high-cap cryptocurrencies, including Dogecoin, Solana, Polkadot, 

 (XRP). If the regulator decides to approve the applications in batch mode — all or several at once — Canary Capital will have reason to hope that its ETF is included.

However, there's been skepticism regarding the PENGU Spot ETF application, with some analysts believing that its chances might differ from those of the larger, more established altcoin ETFs. This isn't surprising, as a PENGU Spot ETF would be a distinct product, being the first NFT-focused ETF. In addition, NFTs have more limited liquidity than fungible cryptocurrencies. 

NFTs may also be harder to valuate objectively. The prices of fungible cryptos are easily sourced from the crypto market, where supply and demand establish their value. In contrast, the limited liquidity and uniqueness of NFTs makes it much harder to price them efficiently.

Moreover, the PENGU token — which will make up most of the proposed ETF — isn't among the most traded assets in the crypto market. Because PENGU has a modest position in the crypto space (along with its origins as a 

), the SEC could view it with more skepticism than it does the leading altcoins.

Naturally, all these factors are just speculation at this point, and we’ll need to wait on the SEC’s initial comments regarding the first NFT-based ETF under their consideration in order to form a more defined view of the product's prospects for approval.

Current impact of the PENGU Spot ETF application on the crypto market

The news of the PENGU Spot ETF application has so far had no appreciable impact on the price of the PENGU token itself. On the day of the application (Mar 20, 2025), the token was trading at around $0.007. Two weeks later, it's still hovering around the same price. 

On the other hand, there's been a modest increase in the average price of Pudgy Penguins NFTs traded on the market: between March 20 and 28, the average price rose by 16% from around $16,450 to $19,120, though it has since retraced slightly to $17,490 as of Apr 2.

Given the modest price effect, investors are likely still cautious about the chances for the PENGU Spot ETF's approval.

However, if it is approved, the broader impact on the crypto market could be far-reaching, as such a step would signify the SEC's openness to both NFT-based ETFs, and ETFs made up of smaller-cap cryptocurrencies, including meme coins. The number of tokenized asset funds that offer NFT-based products would then be likely to increase significantly, facilitating mainstream NFT adoption within traditional financial markets.

An SEC approval of the PENGU Spot ETF may lead to a flurry of further ETF applications based on NFTs in some form. This could even include the first ETFs composed entirely of NFTs. Other crypto asset types — e.g., 

 (RWAs) — may also become candidates for the SEC’s consideration. Furthermore, in the unlikely event that Canary Capital’s PENGU Spot ETF were to be approved ahead of the altcoin spot ETFs currently in the SEC’s pipeline, it would send a very strong signal that those ETF applications are also a sure bet.

The current PENGU Spot ETF application is a pioneering event that may open up opportunities for NFT ETFs and other crypto ETFs based on partial NFT holdings. Although the SEC approved multiple Bitcoin Spot ETFs in early 2024, few people expected an NFT-based ETF to emerge so soon afterward. Probably even fewer expected a meme coin–based ETF to be taken seriously by the SEC. Unique in so many ways, the PENGU ETF flips the entire concept of traditional ETFs on its head.

Canary Capital's attempt to get approval for an NFT-backed ETF is truly a bold undertaking, though observers said the same thing about 

 just a few years ago. Someone needed to become a trailblazer in this area — and Canary Capital has taken up the noble role without hesitation. Now, all eyes are on the SEC as it prepares to weigh in on a product it has never before encountered.

PENGU Spot ETF: A bold move for NFT investing — or just hype?

In this article, we break down what to expect from Liberation Day and how it could shape the outlook for equities, the US economy and crypto markets.

 April 2, 2025 as "Liberation Day" — a moment he claims will restore America's trade fairness through sweeping reciprocal tariffs. With few concrete details confirmed, global markets remain on edge. Investors are bracing for the economic fallout of a potential trade war, and crypto traders are watching closely to assess the impact on digital assets. In this article, we break down what to expect from “Liberation Day” and how it could shape the outlook for equities, the US economy and crypto markets.

Since returning to the White House in January 2025, President Trump has prioritized reshaping US trade policy with a renewed focus on tariffs. His administration has already announced 

 on all steel and aluminum imports. Many of these actions take effect this week, coinciding with his so-called Liberation Day.

Trump argues that tariffs are a necessary tool to reduce the US trade deficit and force foreign nations to stop what he calls "economic warfare" against the American worker. Treasury secretary Scott Bessent 

 countries with persistent trade surpluses — dubbed the 

 — as primary targets for reciprocal tariffs. These include China, the EU, Canada and Mexico.

However, critics point to the growing risk of a global trade war, with multiple partners already threatening or initiating retaliatory measures. Goldman Sachs recently 

, citing declining business confidence and mounting economic uncertainty. The tariffs, designed to protect US industries, could instead raise prices and weigh on consumer spending.

What to expect from Trump's ‘Liberation Day’ announcement

Trump is expected to reveal his tariff plans in a Rose Garden press conference on April 2. White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt 

 that the president would impose tariffs on "any country that has treated the American people unfairly" — though no nation-specific exemptions have been confirmed. Trump has promised these reciprocal tariffs will be 

While final details remain under wraps, proposals have included both country-wide and sector-specific tariffs. These could range from uniform, percentage-based levies to targeted charges on industries like pharmaceuticals, semiconductors and autos. Trump's advisers, including Trump trade adviser Peter Navarro and commerce secretary Howard Lutnick, claim the new tariffs could generate over $600 billion annually — though many economists dispute this figure.

Delayed tariffs on Canadian and Mexican imports, 

 in early March, are also set to take effect this week. These include taxes on agricultural products, energy goods and automotive components. Trump has also 

 a 25% tariff on imports from countries that purchase oil or gas from Venezuela.

Given the administration's conflicting signals in recent weeks, there's a wide range of potential outcomes. Whether “Liberation Day” ushers in immediate enforcement, additional delays or future negotiation rounds remains to be seen. For now, uncertainty reigns.

Potential impact on the US economy and global markets

Economists warn that broad-based tariffs could lead to slower US growth, higher consumer prices and widening inequality. Goldman Sachs now 

 Trump's trade policies to reduce annual GDP growth to 1.5% from 2%, while the odds of a recession are being raised from 20% to 35%.

Global equity markets have already shown signs of stress. European and Asian indices dipped ahead of “Liberation Day,” while the S&P 500 and Nasdaq-100 

 in March (respectively). Auto manufacturers, tech firms and retailers could be especially vulnerable if tariffs disrupt global supply chains.

There's also the question of the Federal Reserve's response. With inflation risks rising, policymakers may hold off on anticipated rate cuts, further complicating the economic outlook heading into Q2.

How will ‘Liberation Day’ affect the crypto industry?

Crypto markets have mirrored broader risk sentiment over the past quarter, with investors reducing exposure amid macroeconomic turbulence. As of April 1, the 

 is down 16.9% year-to-date. Bitcoin has fallen 10.48%, Ethereum 44.2% and Solana 33% — despite reaching new highs in January on hopes for pro-crypto policies from the Trump administration.

Investor optimism has since cooled as recession risks, inflation concerns and policy unpredictability drive a risk-off mood. Bitcoin dipped to $81,656 over the weekend, marking its weakest Q1 since 2018. Traders remain cautious ahead of “Liberation Day,” awaiting clarity before opening new positions.

“Liberation Day” could further weigh on crypto prices if market volatility increases and capital rotates out of risk assets. However, some analysts believe any resulting sell-off may offer an opportunity to 

 — especially if Trump follows through on crypto-friendly regulation later this year. For now, though, many eyes are on April 2.

With details still unknown, the crypto market remains in a "wait-and-see" phase. “Liberation Day” could mark a turning point — for better or worse — depending upon the scope and execution of Trump's tariff agenda.

Sui blockchain, an eagerly anticipated project in the crypto sector, has recently launched its mainnet on May 3, 2023. Developed by former Meta executives, Sui uses a modified version of the original Move programming language created to power the Meta Diem blockchain. Read on to find out more about the revolutionary technology Sui operates on, and how it can potentially transform the web3 space.

 blockchain designed to solve some of the problems around 

, and revolutionizing blockchain technology by increasing speed and security as the blockchain landscape moves toward greater adoption of web3.

Sui is also the future home of exciting new blockchain 

. The idea is that developers can fully unleash their creativity in making games fun and exciting without focusing too much on the coding aspect.

, whose 13-member team is led by five founders — Evan Cheng, Sam Blackshear, Adeniyi Abiodun, George Danezis and Kostas Chalkias — all former senior executives and lead architects for Meta's discontinued digital wallet program called Novi. They decided to launch a new blockchain protocol aimed at solving issues of scalability that have been a thorn in the crypto sector's side for years.

The Sui blockchain has three core elements that work together to allow it to process instant settlements at a low cost: Move language, parallel transaction execution and the Sui consensus engine.

The Sui network supports smart contract executions with the Sui-specific styling of 

, which is an updated version of the Move language that 

 uses. Move, which was originally designed by Facebook (now known as Meta) for its now-discontinued blockchain program, Diem, is based on the popular 

Sui's Move is an executable bytecode language designed to prevent double-spending and help Sui become one of the safest and most secure smart-contract platforms. Overall, it was designed to improve some of the flaws — or at least imperfections — of existing programming languages like Solidity, which weren’t coded to support blockchain asset representations securely. 

While traditional blockchain networks have their smart contracts designed around accounts, Sui's smart contracts are designed around 

. These objects can be mutable or immutable, shared among multiple people or owned by one person. Objects owned strictly by a single user won't have to undergo the verification process, allowing them to have near-instant finality.

The dynamic nature of Sui’s smart contracts helps NFT art break new ground, as NFTs can now be easily modified and customized, which also boosts the creativity of NFT artists and holders. For instance, accessories can be added as NFTs on top of an existing NFT, which allows individuals to create limitless custom combinations for their NFTs, as illustrated by the example of 

One of the biggest innovations that Sui offers is parallel transaction execution. 

On other platforms that process smart contracts, transactions are executed one at a time, generally in the order in which they’re received. This makes individual transactions longer to process. However, the Sui blockchain processes transactions in parallel, and simple transactions aren’t required to undergo consensus, resulting in near-instant finality. 

For the sake of comparison, at peak, the Ethereum blockchain can handle about 15 

 (TPS). In trial runs, the Sui blockchain was able to process 120,000 transactions in a single second. 

 used by Sui, although Bullshark replaced the Tusk component in August 2022. The move was made to reduce latency issues, and to ensure that validators with lower processing speeds would still be able to contribute to the project. (However, Tusk can still be used via updating the source.) In short, Narwhal is used as a 

 to ensure that the data submitted to the consensus is available, and Bullshark (or Tusk) then sets the standard for arranging that data so the consensus engine can read it. This is part of the 

 (DAG) mempool, yet another innovation Sui offers.

 (DPoS) system, meaning that within each epoch (a period of 24 hours), SUI holders select a set of validators and stake their SUI tokens with them. These validators process the transactions in the network. The staked tokens are locked into the system during that specific epoch, but token holders can withdraw their tokens or change their delegated validator when the epoch changes.

The Sui network's gas price system was designed with three distinct goals, all of which are intended to enhance the user experience and ensure a fast, reliable network:

At the beginning of each epoch, validators are surveyed to determine the minimum gas price they'll accept. The system then orders these amounts, and chooses a price roughly around the 66th percentile. During the epoch, each validator receives signals regarding other validators' operations, allowing them to assess their performance against the rest, and aim to commit to the reference gas price. 

At the end of each epoch, validators who have performed efficiently against the reference gas price receive regular rewards, while rewards are slashed for those who haven’t. This system encourages validators to enter a lower minimum acceptable gas price and commit to it, which helps keep users' costs down. 

An essential part of the sustainability of Sui blockchain is the storage fund, designed to hold the network's gas fees and redistribute them to validators in the future. This ensures that the network can continue to operate, as validators have a vested interest in continuing their work.

The storage fund size is maintained by ensuring that storage outflows are always less than storage inflows. There are two types of inflows: storage fees for transactions conducted in the current epoch, and reinvestment into new principal of the staked rewards not paid out to validators. The outflow is created when users delete unnecessary data for a storage fee rebate.

It’s important to note that these validator rewards are only paid out of the interest generated by the fund, and the principal is never touched. This ensures that the fund — and, therefore, the ecosystem — will be self-sustaining and able to last indefinitely.

Sui Wallet also supports integration with decentralized applications (

At launch, 50% of SUI tokens will be put in the Community Reserve for grants, validator subsidies, and research and development, in addition to 20% given to early contributors to the project, 14% to investors, 10% distributed to the Mysten Labs treasury, and 6% toward the Community Access Program and app testers.

 to the community that anyone offering a SUI airdrop is likely a scammer.

The SUI token has a current price of $3.23 (as of Nov 26, 2024), which is 781.5% higher than its all-time low of $0.3648 and 18% lower than its all-time high of $3.92.

 share many similarities in that both are relatively new, Level 1 blockchains, developed by former Meta employees, and use the Move programming language. However, if you look at each blockchain more closely, there are also quite a few differences. First, the Sui platform uses a more up-to-date version of the same programming language, and is coded more transparently. It allows users to see if an object is owned, shared, immutable or none of the above, whereas Aptos does not. 

Secondly, while running on the same PoS mechanism, Sui uses Narwhal and Bullshark as its consensus algorithms, while Aptos uses a derivative of the 

 protocol. Finally, Aptos had a slightly higher throughput in its testing phase than Sui, at 160,000 TPS. However, after Aptos's mainnet was released in October 2022, it fell to a dismal rate of 4 TPS, currently running at

SUI NFT Marketplace: Is BlueMove the Next Big Thing for NFTs?

 is a community-first, non-fungible token (NFT) marketplace that actively rewards participants such as traders, collectors and creators in the ecosystem of scarce digital assets. It’s designed for the Move language public blockchain and currently supports Sui and Aptos. 

The Move language was developed for Facebook’s Diem cryptocurrency project. Its focus on security and formal verification makes it attractive for developing DApps and smart contracts. BlueMove has quickly become a leading multichain NFT marketplace by empowering users and creators, offering features such as an in-app wallet, mint tracking, NFT lending and an NFT order book. 

Whether BlueMove becomes the next big thing in the NFT space depends upon the degree of adoption by developers and users, the overall growth of the NFT market and emerging use cases for NFTs. However, by rewarding users, sharing platform fees and paying creators instantly, the marketplace shows promise, and new functions can be introduced without compromising security.

While previous years’ road maps focused on building strong foundations for developers, 2024 has introduced advanced tools and unique features, taking Sui to the next level.

The effectiveness of these upgrades is reflected in developer adoption: Sui's monthly active developers surged by 219% to 1,400 in mid-2024, with over 18,000 new code commits.
