The TON ecosystem will launch a large number of airdrops in the next 3 months. Here are the dates of the TGE and airdrops for the top 3 projects:
@LostDogsCo – September 12
@CatizenAI – September 20
@Hamster_Kombat – September 26
The Telegram-linked TON blockchain is preparing for several high-profile airdrops this month, sparking technical concerns within the community. Airdrops are a popular method for attracting users and investors in the cryptocurrency space. The system is often used to reward early adopters and encourage new participants.
Upcoming TON Ecosystem Airdrop
The airdrop series will kick off with Lost Dogs on September 12. The project combines NFT collectibles with applets related to the Notcoin ecosystem, offering daily challenges through collectible cards. However, the team has not yet provided specific details about the airdrop.
On September 20, Catizen will airdrop its CATI tokens to early adopters. Since its launch six months ago, Catizen has attracted 34 million players, with more than 2 million active users on the chain and 800,000 paying users. Its average revenue per paying user is $33. CATI tokens will be listed on several major exchanges such as OKX and KuCoin.
Hamster Kombat , a popular Telegram-based clicker game, will launch on September 26. The game, which allows players to earn rewards by completing tasks, recently surpassed 300 million users. Notably, the company behind the game, the Hamster Foundation, has been promoting the planned airdrop as the largest in history.
These blockchain games showcase Telegram’s growing role as a decentralized application and community-driven token distribution platform.
What are the technical challenges in the future?
Despite the excitement, the TON blockchain faces possible challenges. Community members are concerned that the influx of new users from the upcoming airdrop could put pressure on the network. Similar issues arose during the DOGS airdrop, which disrupted operations.
Last month, DOGS airdropped tokens to 17 million users, setting a new high for network activity. The airdrop resulted in 1.1 million daily active addresses and 14.4 million daily transactions. There are currently 4.5 million unique wallets holding DOGS, surpassing most tokens in terms of the number of unique holders.
In addition, the Dogecoin mini-app attracted more than 53 million users, of which 42.2 million were eligible to participate in the token distribution. The TON community described it as "the largest meme TGE in the history of cryptocurrency."
Meanwhile, the community expects that the upcoming airdrops for Hamster Kombat and Catizen may surpass DOGS due to the high anticipation for these games.
As a result, community members point out that airdrops may cause network congestion, transaction delays, and technical issues. Nevertheless, the TON Foundation and its community are committed to addressing these issues and driving wider adoption by improving the scalability of the network.
