- After commencing its presale last Friday, Dogizen, the latest new crypto and Telegram game to make the headlines and the first Telegram ICO ever, has already raised $452k, surpassing the sky-high expectations of even the most bullish commentators.
- And having roared past 1.3 million users, this exploding GameFi entrant is showing no signs of slowing down.
Dogizen is here to stay—will you get involved in what has been described as the ‘greatest moonshot in Telegram gaming’?
Dogizen is the first Telegram ICO and this shouldn’t be ignored
A simple golden rule in any form of commerce is that removing the practical barriers to buying something will increase sales. It’s why conversion optimization experts exist. Crypto is no different, and to many no-coiners, crypto can be notoriously hard to obtain; downloading a wallet and visiting an exchange is too complex for something that should be so simple.
Harnessing the integrated wallet within Telegram, Dogizen is the first ever ICO to make investing, claiming, and holding of its new token take place all within the familiar environment of its messaging app. This increase of ease will likely reel in both crypto noobs and long-term holders because whenever something becomes easier to buy, people usually buy more of it.
Why GameFi and Telegram games are taking over
GameFi has been exploding in recent years—by 27% annually, according to the ever-reliable Business Research Insights. And at the top of this summit of growth are Telegram games.
The jewels in the crypto-gaming crown, titles like Hamster Kombat, Catizen—the feline-themed inspiration for Dogizen—and DOGS token have amassed over 300 million users, 39 million users, and 53 million users, respectively. These gargantuan numbers have been achieved through Telegram’s unrivaled ability to onboard newbies into crypto, with records routinely being broken.
With nearly 1 billion users, Telegram uses crypto gaming to make it extremely easy for crypto casuals to delve into DeFi for the very first time. Games like Dogizen open directly in mini-apps with no need to download anything else, and perhaps this is why 50% of Telegram tap-to-earners lost their crypto virginity to Telegram.
Why Dogizen is primed to dominate the GameFi scene
Unique to Dogizen, users can take part in the DOGIZ ICO directly through the platform, with no need to deal with the complexities of a crypto wallet or claim on a separate website when the token launches.
Nearly 3 billion people—or over 35% of the global population—play mobile games, and Dogizen has positioned itself as the ultimate pathway to mainstream Web3 adoption. This is capital that has never before reached the crypto coffers, and Dogizen is facilitating its influx.
Plus, if Dogizen’s canine-themed virality, addictive gameplay mechanics, and groundbreaking world-first status weren’t enough to pump this DOGS token destroyer, the Dogizen Universe seals the deal.
The Dogizen Universe: A master plan for GameFi
The Dogizen Universe is a hub for developers to create apps on Telegram using the Dogizen software development kit (SDK). While some of these will be additional games to bolster the entertainment offering and further serve Dogizen’s growing player base, the most revolutionary aspect of this story is Dogizen’s bid to become the leading user-first ads platform.
Traditional marketing might not be dead, but it is certainly in a steep decline. One of the most popular new strategies is gamification. From KFC and Under Armour to Wordle and even the US Army, huge companies and organizations are bringing their brands into the future by using games to captivate their target audiences and engage with them throughout their lifecycle.
Through the Dogizen launchpad, anyone from indie developers to big-buck pros can quickly and affordably launch their own apps, which will target a specific high-value demographic and have real utility.
Heckler & Koch could launch a PvP first-person shooter minigame, while Airbnb could launch a property tycoon tapper. The possibilities really are endless.
Dogizen: The app that will change it all
In short, Dogizen isn’t just another crypto game. It is an all-in-one hub for all things GameFi, and offers something for everyone in a hype-driving ecosystem.
The days of leads being bombarded by useless, obstructive ads are over. Dogizen allows them to feel heard, listened to, and connected with, and it helps developers at every stage of the process, from early conceptualization to eventual testing and rollout.
And impressively, while this would be the final destination for most cryptos, this is just the beginning of the Dogizen roadmap. The project is aiming to evolve into a broader ecosystem where users can use DOGIZ and the power of SocialFi for all sorts of payments, with serious strategic partnerships on the cards. This is a project with enough catalysts to punt its competition to the GameFi scrap heap.
The Dogizen presale is now live—but you can only get involved for a limited time. Visit the official Dogizen website for further info.
