Interest in the DOGS meme coin is growing as it sets itself apart from other meme coin projects by offering real utility within the Telegram ecosystem, powered by the TON blockchain. The team distributed most of the tokens to long-time Telegram users, further boosting its appeal.
Looking ahead, TON aims to attract “tens or even hundreds of millions of users” through token generation events (TGEs) for its flagship tap-to-earn games, such as Catizen and Hamster Kombat. These tap-to-earn games have been a major driver of user growth, drawing millions to the Web3 gaming space.
