Dogizen, the tap-to-earn game generating considerable buzz in the gaming community, has launched its long-awaited presale.
The world’s first Telegram ICO, which makes the DOGIZ token available to more than 950 million Telegram users, went live today, October 4, 2024, at 08:00 UTC.
Dogizen’s presale raised over $110,000 in under two hours, with DOGIZ priced at $0.00007 in the first stage.
Dogizen ICO: A New Era for Telegram Gaming
The global crypto community is expanding rapidly, though the estimated number of crypto holders remains around 550 million.
By comparison, Telegram counts more than 950 million users, and the global mobile gaming audience is projected to reach 1.9 billion players by 2027. Separately, the tap-to-earn market is valued at roughly $1.2 billion today, while crypto gaming exceeds $9 billion. All of these sectors are expected to see significant growth.
Combining these figures suggests Dogizen’s entry into Telegram’s tap-to-earn market places it at the center of a potentially explosive ecosystem.
Dogizen lowers the barrier for mainstream users to enter this emerging industry through a simple mobile gaming experience. With this first Telegram-native ICO, Dogizen targets a space that could challenge—and potentially surpass—other TON-powered Telegram games such as Hamster Kombat and Catizen.
DOGIZ is designed to support the project’s long-term success by moving beyond hype and speculation toward real utility. Beyond rewards and airdrops, DOGIZ will play a significant role across the Dogizen universe.
Dogizen Universe
Dogizen Universe will offer several core features designed to empower developers and creators while delivering rewards to players.
A developer SDK will enable the creation and launch of game apps, with monetization opportunities that help accelerate further growth.
A launchpad and an arcade will serve as a central hub for Telegram gaming. The ecosystem also plans to share ad revenue generated within games and through partnerships.
As outlined in the project’s whitepaper, Dogizen Universe envisions a full economic ecosystem. Developers will be able to build and earn as players receive in-game rewards, while DOGIZ holders will benefit from the revenue-sharing model.
The DOGIZ presale is the first phase of this expansion and innovation, and early participants will play a crucial role in realizing the vision. It also offers an early entry point for ICO participants as tap-to-earn establishes itself as a major trend in crypto gaming.
Notably, all major TON-based tokens on Telegram have gone on to list on Binance, the world’s largest crypto exchange. This includes Notcoin, Hamster Kombat, and Catizen—the three largest T2E projects by market capitalization.
With over 1.3 million players and growing, Dogizen could be the next project to secure an exchange listing. Learn more about Dogizen here.
