FAQ — Frequently Asked Questions
What is PenguMiner: A New Hope?
A browser-based Action RPG where you upgrade your Fish Generator, buy Expedition Maps, mine Hard Ice against drones and the Orca — and earn real PENGU tokens. It launches on Solana after Abstract Chain's shutdown — hence "A New Hope".
Why Solana?
Abstract, the chain PenguMiner was built on, is shutting down. Solana is where PENGU was born — so that's where the village moves. See A New Hope.
What does $PGM do?
You pay for Diamonds with it — and get 20% more Diamonds than paying the same amount with USDC. Diamonds buy everything in the game. See The PGM Token.
Can I pay without $PGM?
Yes, with USDC — but without the bonus. Paying with $PGM gets you 20% more Diamonds for the same value.
Where and when can I get $PGM?
On pump.fun, from November 5, 2026. The official contract address is published on launch day on penguminer.com and on @PenguMiner_com. Never trust an address from anywhere else.
What happened to the old PGM raise on Abstract?
It is no longer part of the project. PenguMiner launches on Solana, and $PGM launches on pump.fun.
Is PenguMiner part of Pudgy Penguins?
No. PenguMiner is an independent fan project built by fans of the Pudgy Penguins community. We're not affiliated with or endorsed by Pudgy Penguins or Igloo Inc.
