Last week in New York was nothing short of a whirlwind adventure for the Plooshies team, embodied none more so than by Viktor, who, from Monday to Friday, navigated a jam-packed schedule with unparalleled passion. The city that never sleeps was the perfect setting for our next vibrant adventure, a testament to our growing position in the digital landscape and our ever-expanding community.
That’s why from April 3rd to April 8th, the streets of New York City felt the vibrant presence of the Plooshies as they embarked on a journey filled with industry discussions, community connections, and unforgettable moments. Led by Viktor, co-founder of the Plooshies, the team seized every opportunity to spread joy, forge connections, and leave a lasting impression on the bustling city.
Join us as we recount the highlights of this remarkable week that showcased the rising prominence and influence of the Plooshies in the digital space and beyond.
The week kicked off with Viktor the Viking taking the stage in a pivotal Breakfast Panel Talk alongside esteemed web3 legends, hosted by Jan Roessner. Joined by Luca Netz, CEO of Pudgy Penguins, and Cabanimation, the Co-Founder and Creative Director of Claynosaurz, Viktor engaged in honest and insightful discussions about the power of IP and the future of on-chain gaming.
Plooshies in Times Square
What followed was an unforgettable spectacle on Times Square by Thursday, where our beloved Plooshies roamed the bustling arena.
With Viktor and Penelope leading the way, the team ventured into the heart of the city, spreading joy and positivity with every step. And what we appreciated the most: The enthusiastic reception from passersby reaffirmed the global appeal of the Plooshies’ IP, transcending the boundaries of the digital realm and capturing the hearts of people worldwide.
Plooshies x Expedition Labs Event
The energy continued to soar as the Plooshies teamed up with Expedition Labs for an afternoon of sports, fun, and camaraderie.
Viktor’s prowess on the table was matched by the depth of conversation off it, nurturing valuable community connections. This gathering underscored the essence of our engagements: building relationships through interactive and heartfelt exchanges.
Genuine Feedback and Connections
Throughout the week, Viktor and the team were humbled by the outpouring of support and encouragement from attendees and community members alike. Genuine exchanges and heartfelt conversations served as a source of motivation and again reaffirmed the shared vision driving the Plooshies forward. It was a reminder of the strength of community and the boundless potential that lies ahead on our journey.
Meeting Rob and More
In recognition of the incredible people who make our community vibrant, we want to celebrate the invaluable contributions of members like Rob.

Anticipating Future Triumphs
As we teased upcoming projects and developments, our hearts swelled with gratitude for the unwavering support from our community. The journey ahead promises excitement and innovation, as we further entrench our roots in the digital landscape while continuously exploring new horizons.
With a renewed sense of purpose and determination, we set our sights on the next chapter of our journey, ready to conquer new heights and spread joy to even greater audiences.
With Plooshy Island, our 2nd mobile game, and of course our YouTube Series almost ready to launch, we are closer than ever to realizing our vision of bringing people together in a world of endless fun and adventure.
Let’s put NFT NYC in retrospect: It was more than just a series of events; it was a reminder of the impact of genuine relationships, the importance of community, and the unlimited potential of creativity in the Plooshies’ universe.
Because even in the hectic metropolis of New York City, amidst the hustle and bustle of everyday life, the Plooshies had been able to carve out a space for joy, connection, and inspiration.
The week in NY and more importantly all the people we got to meet left an indelible mark on our hearts and minds, and we hope anyone who met us felt the same magic.
As we bid farewell to the bright lights of the big city, we carry with us the memories of a week filled with triumphs, connections, and endless possibilities. And as we look ahead to the future, one thing remains certain — the year of the Plooshies is just beginning.
