The Catizen project has been the talk of the town, but for the wrong thing, and it's not hard to understand why.
Imagine dedicating time and effort to a game, only to find that your rewards are a mere 2 tokens. Yes, you read that right—2 tokens for most participants in the airdrop.
Compare that to the fortunate few who poured more money into in-game purchases and were rewarded generously.
It begs the question: Is this really about building a strong community, or just squeezing out more from the players who are willing to spend?
This selective reward system has made some wonder whether Catizen is truly a project that values its community or just another cash grab.
It’s not uncommon for projects to incentivize spending, but when the vast majority of the community gets little to nothing, it can feel like exploitation.
Is this a tactical move, or is it a sign of deeper issues in the project?
When you compare Catizen’s airdrop strategy with other launches, the picture becomes even murkier.
Take $NOT , for example. It launched at $0.010, and despite its humble beginnings, it allocated thousands of tokens to each person.
Similarly, $DOGS launched at a mere $0.0012 but still distributed sizable allocations to its community members.
These projects understood that to grow, you must foster loyalty, and you do that by giving the community a sense of ownership and reward.
Catizen seems to be taking a different route, leaving many to wonder if this will hinder its long-term success.
But then, what if this is part of a bigger strategy? What if, in limiting airdrop allocations, they are trying to stabilize the price and prevent massive token dumps when it hits the exchanges?
After all, the real question is whether this strategy will push the Cati token to soar above $0.50 or even reach $2, as some speculators are predicting.
If that happens, those two tokens might suddenly feel like gold in your hands. And maybe, just maybe, this whole strategy is a calculated play to create scarcity and hype around the launch.
It’s a risky game, no doubt. If Catizen pulls it off, it could be the first Telegram mini-app project to make significant strides in the blockchain space.
But if they fail, it will feel like yet another case of a project over-promising and under-delivering, leaving the community disillusioned.
So, is Catizen the next big thing or just a project that cares little for its community? Only time will tell. But as the Cati token hits the market, one thing is clear—the stakes are high, and the community will be watching closely.
Do you think this is a marketing genius from citizen or a nonchalant approach favoring only the highest bidders?
