In July, the game registered approximately 25 million active players. This figure does not include bot activity, thanks to the implementation of a monitoring system that detects and blocks fake users. Ricky Wong, co-founder of Pluto Studio, the game’s developer company, explained that the Telegram mini-app is designed to closely monitor user activity and prevent bots or fraudulent behavior from distorting the game’s real numbers. This approach allows Catizen to maintain the integrity of its player base, differentiating it from other games on the market.

Its native token, CATI, is also scheduled for launch on September 20 and will be available for trading on exchanges like Biget and Bybit.
The game has also formed strategic partnerships within the crypto ecosystem, including agreements with Binance Labs and HashKey.
