Has Success Finally Found Web3 Gaming? Catizen's Growth and Financial Results Offer a Clear Affirmation

Blockchain Gaming Sees Breakthrough as Catizen Reports Explosive Growth

For years, experts have predicted that gaming would be the catalyst for mainstream blockchain adoption. While numerous attempts have fallen short, a new report from Catizen suggests that the long wait may finally be over.

Catizen’s Meteoric Rise

Founded in March 2024, Catizen has quickly become a leader in Web3 entertainment. Within just 10 months, the company generated over $34 million in revenue, shifting its focus from single-game experiences to a broader Mini App Center. By the end of the year, the platform had attracted 55 million players, with 3.3 million active blockchain users and 1.2 million paying customers.

One of the biggest drivers of this success is the Play-to-Airdrop model, powered by Catizen’s $CATI token, which is listed on all major exchanges. The mini-game Bombie has been a standout performer, contributing nearly $9.2 million—almost half of the Mini App Center’s total revenue.

Now, another game, Cattea, is rapidly gaining traction. Designed with humor, crypto culture references, and engaging social features, Cattea aims to go viral, further boosting Catizen’s revenue potential. The game also introduces in-game advertising, which could become a significant revenue stream.

Token Utility and Expansion

A key factor in Catizen’s growth has been its deep integration with Telegram, allowing users to make payments using Telegram Stars. The launch of $CATI in September marked a major milestone, with users receiving a 30% discount on game top-ups. Catizen also distributes 10 million $CATI tokens quarterly, fueling community engagement.

Since its ecosystem upgrade in October, Catizen has seen rapid adoption. More than 9 million $CATI tokens have been used within three months, and 21 new mini-games have been published. With this momentum, the company expects more than 10% of the total $CATI supply to be consumed annually.

Launchpool and Community Engagement

Catizen’s Launchpool has been instrumental in community-driven growth. The first project, Zircuit, distributed over $1.5 million in staking rewards, attracting participation from major blockchain investors like Binance Labs, Pantera, and Dragonfly Capital. The initiative encouraged users to actively engage, stake tokens, and participate in the growing Web3 sharing economy.

As part of its 2025 strategy, Catizen plans to expand Launchpool within Telegram’s non-custodial wallet, broadening its reach to millions of users.

Ambitious Goals for 2025

Catizen’s vision is to establish itself as a leading consumer application hub. The company is focusing on importing top-tier games, growing global communities, and increasing $CATI token utility. The next phase involves geographic expansion into high-value markets such as Japan, Taiwan, Southeast Asia, Europe, and the U.S.

With a strong foundation in English- and Russian-speaking regions, Catizen is tailoring market-specific products to attract high-quality users. The team forecasts a 60% increase in paying and blockchain users over the next year, reinforcing its position as a driving force in blockchain gaming.

If Catizen’s success continues, blockchain gaming may finally have found its long-awaited breakthrough.
