About Us
The Penimals started the same way most legendary ideas do, on a school blackboard.
Two friends used to draw the classic 8=D symbol everywhere… until the teacher caught us. So we got creative. We hid the dick inside cute animals. Elephants with trunks that looked suspiciously familiar. Cats with a very particular nose. Suddenly, it wasn't offensive; it was just funny. And it stuck.
Many years later we turned that running joke into something real: The Penimals — a 5,555-piece hand-drawn collection on Ethereum.
Every single Penimal and every trait are 100% human-made, like anything else you see from us, including this website. Zero AI. 25 different species (cats, elephants, hippos, platypuses… the whole zoo), 98 color variations, and traits that lovingly rip off luxury brands while sneaking in our signature 8=D twist. The "protection hat"? Yeah… it's exactly what you think it is.
The name itself hides the joke in plain sight: PENI(mal)S.
We're just 3 friends who never stopped doodling or coding, no matter how many years went by.
Our goal is simple:
Build a community that actually appreciates the art, the humor, and the originality, and has 0 issues wearing a cute penis as merchandise.
Then turn this cute idea into a real brand, merch, figures, memes, and eventually our own super smart universe of sarcastic, dick-related collections/agents.
One day we want to see Penimals walking around like BAPE mascots. Why not?
This isn't just another NFT project.
It's a love letter to every kid who ever got in trouble for drawing dicks in class from their parent who never forgot how the old days went.
Welcome to the family.
Roadmap
The Penimals Roadmap
(From classroom doodles to a real brand and IP)
Stage 1 — Foundation & Spotlight
June 2026
- Get fully verified on OpenSea
- Official sponsorship at NFC (the biggest NFT event in the world) – June 4th to 6th, 2026
- Private 1/1 moments and networking with industry leaders, including Adam Weitsman, Serc (Normies), and many more
This is our big coming-out party. We're showing the world that The Penimals aren't just another collection — we're here to build something that lasts, and that's why we started our project by airdropping some NFTs and issuing some refunds for people who paid extra for their mint. Transparency and creativity are our main focus.
Stage 2 — Merch Drop & Real Utility
July – August 2026
We're ordering 20,000 premium merch items straight from our partners (5–8 week production window).
At the same time we're launching the official Penimals Staking dApp on our website.
Lock your Penimals. Get rewarded the longer you hold.
| Lock Duration | Reward Tier |
|---|---|
| 2 weeks (Tier 1) | Free Penimal T-Shirt |
| 1 month (Tier 2) | Tier 1 + Cap + Physical Print of Stacked NFT |
| 3 months (Tier 3) | Tier 2 + Hoodie + 3D printed Stacked NFT |
| 6 months | Full Bundle: Tier 3 + Teddy Bear + Bottoms + Free Penimal NFT + surprise goodies |
The longer you lock, the better the reward. Stack multiple Penimals for even bigger multipliers. Real utility. Real ownership. Real merch.
Stage 3 — AI Agents & Next Chapter
October – December 2026
We're bringing ERC-8004 "Awakening" upgrades to The Penimals — the same technology Serc used to turn Normies into on-chain AI agents but without burning or destroying the original art.
Your Penimals will evolve into living, on-chain agents with unique personalities and capabilities.
At the same time we're preparing the next collection: PeniPet's.
- OG Penimals holders will be able to mint for free
- Stack your original Penimals to earn extra entries and free merch
- Special perks and surprises for early supporters (details coming soon)
This is where The Penimals universe really starts expanding.
Stage 4 — PeniHumans & Future-Proofing
February – March 2027
We'll re-evaluate the latest on-chain mechanisms and AI capabilities, then adapt everything to deliver the absolute best technology available at the time.
This sets the stage for PeniHumans — our most ambitious collection yet.
We're intentionally waiting until AI models and on-chain tech have advanced even further so we can launch with the highest possible quality and utility for our community.
Ongoing — All Year, Every Year
- Regular collabs, giveaways & creative contests
- IRL event presence at every major NFT & web3 event (always VIP level)
- Special experiences and gifts for our real-life holder friends
- Continuous brand building and community-first decisions
