$SOL The PENGUIN War — Who REALLY Owns This Solana Meme Coin?

A seemingly harmless penguin meme has turned into one of Solana’s messiest power struggles.

PENGUIN was born from a viral TikTok, quickly tied to “Übermensch” symbolism and spread across Crypto Twitter. On Jan 16, 2026, a dev linked to BastilleBTC quietly deployed the token. Market cap? Just $20K. Liquidity dried up, the deployer vanished, and most traders called it dead.

Then one man changed everything.

A Solana user named Dosuka went all in. For 48 straight hours, he raided Twitter, pushed memes nonstop, and revived interest — all while working full-time at a factory. Volume returned. Buyers showed up. The chart woke up.

That’s when the drama exploded.

PumpFun suddenly rejected the Community Takeover, claiming a “new official team” already existed. On-chain sleuths later found wallet links between this team and the original deployer. Same clusters. Same funding trails.

So was $PENGUIN revived by the community… or reclaimed by insiders?

Is this the first legendary memecoin of 2026 — or a warning about power and ownership in meme culture?
