CATGE 📣 Announcements 📣

2022-02-18 19:42:09 Dear community,

I guess the time has come for the message that I wish I never had to send.

Last night, around 2am UTC a large bag with $26k worth of CATGE tokens have been sold by a wallet belonging to our new head of marketing.

This was part of something that dates back to November 4th.

I will tell you the whole story, which also comes with the reason why it was taking longer than expected to launch the projects.

Back in November, a new head of Marketing reached out to one of our admins with the intention to invest 100k into the project.

He claimed he noticed us on CoinMarketCap after the coin pumped, and got excited about the projects.

We had an almost all-afternoon long conversation where I was explaining the projects, and he started giving many hints about marketing, and how to market the project properly.

At that point, since JB left his role as head of marketing, and it was just me and the agency left, I proposed him to put the funds into a wallet instead, and use those funds to relaunch the coin.

He got really excited, he slowly funded a new marketing wallet (which address has been publicly shared during the AMAs) with 180k, and started planning a new roadmap and working with agencies to design newly reimagined apps for our future wallet app, dApp etc.

Everything was going smoothly, slower than anticipated, but the quality was really good, and we were all happy about the way it was going

I’m gonna share here the link to the Figma we were using to redesign the dApp

https://www.figma.com/file/zNdLGivQ6Aho7sWQ6m6QUU/CatgeSwap-Drafting?node-id=0%3A1

And you probably already saw all the smart contracts that were developed and deployed for the dapp, so we were literally just a frontend webpage short.

The original plan was to have also the wallet app ready, and then plan a big relaunch and release everything at the same time.

The wallet app was going to be really fancy, with the aim to compete with the bigger centralized exchanges for what concerns attracting all the new crypto investors (make DeFi easy and for everyone).
And that’s the part of the development that was taking quite longer.

We all thought it was worth it.

In late January, things started to tip over. Some users probably noticed that the liquidity pool, that hosted about 620 BNB, was “drained” down to 195.

This was due to some investors from the Galaxy project that invested in the liquidity pool back in July, financing over 1000 BNB to relaunch the V2 (by the way, for those who remember, we said “from our own pockets” back then, because Galaxy really was a co-founder de facto in our view).
Those investors unfortunately cashed out their positions from the liquidity pool.
(Mr. Maisto can confirm this, and that the investors from Galaxy sold at a loss)

This move obviously set off our new head of marketing, who started asking for access to the marketing wallet (the one he sent his 180k to).

At that point we began dealing with him in order to send him back part of his investment, and he would send us back part of his tokens to “re-equalize” our positions (we weren’t doxxed to each other, but we had his 153k and he had 40k worth of tokens. If he cashed out we would buy back).

Unfortunately we took a wrong decision. He left, therefore, after we gave him back 113k and he gave us back half of his tokens (18.4 trillion out of 36.8), he then cashed out and left the project.

At that point we put $26k back in the coin, to make up for the drop.

It’s not enough. I know. And this is kinda offsetting to everyone.

Despite our efforts for almost a whole year, I have to admit that we haven’t been able to reach our goals.

What I can tell you for sure is that we tried as hard as we could, all the time.

2022-01-24 00:43:10 Hi guys,

While me and the new head of marketing are working on the relaunch, and on some extra deals in the background, I wanted to share my vision on the current crypto market situation.

Although these are by no mean some financial advises, we will try to highlight some objective indicators to have a better picture on where we are.

If you remember, around July-21 I predicted the end of the crypto lateralization and the beginning of a new bull-run (you can check the past AMAs and posts).
With this I am not claiming to be a sorceress, I want that to be clear.
But, as I pointed out, during summer-21 signs of accumulation were obvious. The fall in May-21 was swift: in just 2 weeks the price went -50%. It was definitely an oversold situation, with a low-volumes lateralization and a series of downward spikes with high volumes.
The downward spikes were signs of accumulation, and it was obvious that whoever was accumulating by then, would have had all the interests in a future bull-run.

The bull-run did indeed happen from Aug-21 to Nov-21, but if you notice there was no significant news that would make BTC and the whole ecosystem look more appealing than one month before. Except hype.

In stocks, healthy bull-runs tend to happen with an increase in revenues and/or innovation.
In cryptocurrencies, healthy bull-runs are driven by an increase in adoption and-or innovation.

Adoption brings value from the outside, whether innovation would make the current adopters more hyped and bring value from the inside.

None of that was happening in any significant way in late 2021

Back then all the analysts began publishing articles here and there about the high chance of Bitcoin reaching 100k and beyond by the end of the year, most notably Plan B.

While analysts tend to look at the chart and draw lines, I prefer to analyze the humans and the psychology behind each situation.

With a relatively stagnant innovation and adoption curve, imho the bull run was endogenous and has only been driven by media manipulation on price speculation.
That was the obvious consequence of a period of accumulation like the Summer one.

In a few words, the last bull-run was in my opinion a giant pump&dump and nothing else.

Ok, what about now that the dump already happened?

There’s signs of a new accumulation, although they are not as clear as they were before, but time will give us all the answers. One thing is for sure: as long as the smart money are in, there’s always going to be bull-runs every once in a while.

And another thing is also sure: as long as the adoption and innovation curves will keep increasing, the ecosystem will never point downwards overall.

Innovation and adoption don’t grow as much as Bitcoin grows during a bull-run, so we will keep seeing these kind of price actions like the Aug-21 to Jan-22 ones for a very long time.

The moment the blockchain ecosystem will really blow up will be when web3 will become the new normal: it might take one year, three or most probably five, but it will happen.

CATGE will always aim to get to the front line of the players who are trying to facilitate this process, and let the adoption curve grow as fast as it possibly can.

There’s a lot of work to do, but it’s for a greater good.

Ok Anna, but will bitcoin be back at its ATH? Of course. It might take a few months or a year, but in the end, as we saw in late-2021, it’s kinda easy for the market movers to invent some FOMO from nothing. Do you really think they will miss that opportunity?

And will CATGE be back at its ATH? Of course. As I said we are on the front line of the adoption mission.

And it will pay off Open / Comment

2021-12-31 22:00:39 Hi guys this is Anna.

2021 is coming to an end, and I want to leave it with the happiest wish from the Catge team.

2021 will be also long remembered as the year Catge was born.

If anybody ever thought otherwise, let me remind you that the option of our project not being carried out for many years and many years to come has never been and will never be on the table.

In 2021 we moved our first steps, our coin had over $30 million in trading volume and we changed from being a simple meme coin to being an army with a mission.

The world and the internet are changing at a pace that was never seen in over a decade, and our goal from 2022 is to be at the forefront of the next internet revolution into the web 3.0

While many projects like Metamask, Trust Wallet, Uniswap etc. focus on innovation, we are focusing and keeping focusing on adoption.

The Web 3.0 adoption curve is still at the Early Adopters phase, just like the internet in the late 90’s and the Web 2.0 in the late 2010’s.

With our team, our new co-founder and Head of Marketing and our new marketing budget, we ready to the new year, we are constantly committed to bring Catge to new highs and to become pillars in the Web 3.

Let me thank all of you who patiently supported us up until now.

And let me thank especially all our admins, our former Head of Marketing JB, our Social Media Manager Gian, and our new Head of Marketing, who personally invested more than $170k over the last month and a half, and he is preparing something spectacular.

Happy New Year!

2021-12-13 22:27:43 Dear community,

I know you are very patiently waiting for the dApp release and legitimately want to be updated on the work in progress.

Well, here’s the thing: the app is finally ready and some selected users are already testing it in private.

However me and our new co-founder took a decision: we are planning to redesign the dApp frontend and publish it at the same time with the cash wallet app.

It was a slightly painful decision to take, since I was personally eager to go live, but I know 100% that this is for a greater good.

I think the best way for a coin dev to care about the current holders is to care even more about the future holders.

It’s easy to understand why: it’s the future holders that bring value to the coin and new waves of growth, and obviously the better the quality, usability ad design of the products, the more they are going to love us and hold on. Otherwise we only get speculative investors and that’s not necessarily the best for everyone.

Obviously the future holders don’t even know us and therefore are not time sensitive for what concerns the launches. The current holders on the other hand are obviously time sensitive, but you can trust us that we took the best decision, I am 100% sure.

Also, do you remember how I told you we had a second marketing wallet, where our new co-founder was going to invest about 150k?
I shared the address when there was still about 30k. Check it now :)
0x6e33777E4f61fb6304F8B84Ccb3540932033cd2a

To give you an idea: if we would use our two marketing wallets to buy back, the coin swiftly would go up to 10 million market cap (yes, a 200k increase in liquidity does that).

But we have a clear plan for North American market to make the most use of our treasury, way beyond 10 million.

That’s it for now,
I will keep sending updates as always

We published our CATGE vs DOGE mockup on our website. You can find it on the top bar menu (don’t forget to empty your cache).

Feel free to check it out and send us some feedback.

More news about the game soon to come

2021-10-27 17:19:35 In the homepage we have a webpage in the style of coinhunt.cc, where the newly listed tokens will compete to go up in ranking and be more popular in our platform. This is planned specifically to attract investors from other tokens into our dApp and we had to code it from scratch.

On page 2 you can see that there is an unusual button, "buy BNB with credit card". We made this to help more people that are new to DeFi, but the integration with the API provider took a bit longer than expected

On page 6 you will notice a small difference from Pancakeswap for what concerns our farms: you will collect your yields in different tokens rather than only Catge.

On page 7 we are adding a new feature to the staking platform: the dApp will check if you have a minimum amount of Catge in your wallet to be able to stake other tokens.
This will bring holders from all the different communities to hold some CATGE, increasing our holders numbers by a lot.

Page 8 is maybe the most interesting one, since the Lottery is not only for CATGE, but every token can add their own lottery, in the attempt to attract different token's communities even more.

Page 10 features what will be our NFT marketplace, just like Pancakeswap's.

We could have come out with a dApp in early september by purely forking Pancakeswap, like any other token did, but we are not here to launch an easy-to-make platform just to build some hype within the community as others did.

We are really working mostly from scratch on a game-changing DeFi platform. These complications caused our slight delay.

The development team told us that by the second week of November they should have all the problems fixed and the platform ready, but whether it takes one week less or one week longer, it's worth it.

Internal hype is not our goal, our goal is to create products that will break the grounds of DeFi.

Thank you for being part of this mission with us.

2021-10-27 17:19:30 Dear community,

I know all of you are waiting for the launch of our projects, especially the CatgeSwap dApp.

It's true that there is a slight delay on the dApp, but let me explain you what's going on.

Most of the other tokens that also feature a swap (like Babycake and Shiba Inu) did almost no work at all.

This is because their swaps look exactly like Pancakeswap on their backend, and they only had to design an interface.
This is called "fork". Forking, in very simple terms, means just copying and pasting the code from an aldready existing swap (like Pancakeswap) and connecting it to a different interface.

This is not what we have done.

As you can see from our interface screenshots, there are some features that we are coding from scratch. Open / Comment
