Since the start of 2024, the metrics of The Open Network (TON) ecosystem have skyrocketed by hundreds or even thousands of percent. This unprecedented growth was driven by Telegram, specifically by mini-apps in the messenger that are built on TON.
Here are the most anticipated airdrops this fall in the TON network.
Catizen
- When: September 24
- Amount: 430 million CATI
Catizen is a project in the tap-to-earn segment, operating as a mini-app in Telegram. Since its launch, the game has attracted over 34 million users and generated $26 million in in-game purchases.
The Catizen team has planned the launch of the CATI token on September 24. It’s still unclear whether the airdrop will happen on the same day. Several cryptocurrency exchanges, including OKX, Bybit, Bitget, KuCoin, and HashKey Global, have already announced the listing of the CATI coin.
According to the project’s whitepaper, the total supply of CATI will be 1 billion tokens, with approximately 43% allocated for community rewards.

CATS tokens can also be earned by completing various tasks, such as subscribing to the project’s social media or inviting friends. The Cats Telegram channel already has over 12 million subscribers.
In late August, Bitget opened the pre-market for CATS tokens. Meanwhile, OKX announced a joint initiative with Cats, distributing $30,000 among users who complete specific tasks.
The CATS listing is expected in the second half of the month.
