The CATI launch was also completed with an active airdrop campaign with tokens distributed to early participants. Bybit is the first exchange to complete the airdrop distribution which involved sending around 17.7 million Katie Icons for users.
This campaign is part of a larger allocation of 340 million tokens, and there are plans for future airdrops to keep users engaged. CATI’s initial trading price was $0.97, which was an indication of strong demand from investors who were eager to take advantage of this new opportunity.

Through in-app purchases alone, the game has reportedly generated around $26 million in revenue, and with over 36 million players recently signed up, Catizen’s expansion trajectory looks strong.
The project also received significant support from Mantle EcoFund, which helped it grow. Catizen promises to improve user experience and interaction by transforming into a mini-app hub that integrates the features of the launcher suite. This strategy could make Catizen a major player in the Web 3 gaming space.
The way forward
Future plans include continued airdrops and integration of other features to increase user interactions. The total supply of CATI tokens in the project is set at 1 billion, and will be split equally between the two chains used: TON and Mantle.
As the crypto world evolves, Catizen’s approach may set a precedent for all the play-to-earn games currently in the works. However, given its engaging gameplay, community engagement through airdrops, and strategic partnerships, the road ahead for Catizen looks bright.
With September being a crucial month for crypto events in Nigeria – highlighted by the launch of Catizen and another major Hamster Kombat airdrop – the spotlight is firmly on these projects as they navigate the competitive Web 3 gaming landscape.
