January is not over yet, we have already welcomed ZKF, MANTA, ALT, JUP and the confirmed NAM, DYM, SAGA, FRAME airdrop.
The picture below shows the more or less confirmed TGE (token generation events) this year.
First of all, these are Tech company plans. We know what the outcome will be. Expect delays, delays, delays.
Secondly, these are conservatively estimated minimum quantities. Expect more unexpected TGEs during bull markets.
Third, there are no rumors, no nonsense like "insiders". Only confirmed information or educated guesses, do your own checking.
1, Q1:
The following project snapshots have been generated, we are just waiting for TGE, so they will not be carried out here Detailed introduction. If you are already involved, congratulations: Namada, AltLayer, Dymension, Saga, Frame, ZKX, diva.
Aevo: TGE (or RBN’s token exchange) is planned to take place in January, and 16% of Aevo will be used for incentives.
Thetanuts Finance: NUTS will appear on Coinlist soon. 2% will be distributed in the first wave of airdrops, which are scheduled to take place in the first quarter of 2024.
zkLink: ZKL will start sales through Coinlist. There's no word yet on incentives.
ZetaChain: ZetaChain is An L1 blockchain that will use its tokens to pay gas fees. Therefore, the ZETA TGE date is linked to the mainnet schedule, which is scheduled to go online in the first quarter of 2024.
MilkyWay: TIA liquidity staking app plans to conduct TGE in the first quarter.
Maverick Protocol: MAV is already online, so what is coming will not be TGE, but the 2nd airdrop (although they call it the Season 1 airdrop).
Avail: AVAIL is associated with the mainnet date confirmed by the team. The mainnet is expected to go online in the first quarter.
Merkle Trade: MKL TGE is scheduled to launch in the first quarter.
Taiko: Taiko’s design includes a token plan, so their TGE may be consistent with the mainnet date, which is expected to be online in the first quarter.
TapiocaDAO: TAPIOCA is scheduled to be released in February 2024.
IntentX: TGE is planned to start in the first quarter of 2024.
Aleo: Aleo is an L1 and needs to use ALEO to pay gas fees. Therefore, TGE is expected to be released with the mainnet in the first quarter of 2024.
Kinza Finance: KZA plans to go online in the first quarter of 2024.
Nostra: NOS will be released in the first quarter. How do we know? Please check out the TempleDAO Governance Forum.
Swell: You can currently earn "pearls" by minting swETH and providing liquidity for it, but you can convert these pearls into SWELL tokens in the future. There are currently plans to release the SWELL token “at the end” of the first quarter.
Mantle: Well, this is not a TGE, but a first season reward . Presumably, we will get some MNT instead of commodities.
2, Q1-Q2:
Starknet: Starknet has not confirmed when it will release STRK tokens, but all All evidence suggests it will be released soon. Take the KuCoin exchange clearing similar tokens as an example, presumably in preparation for the STRK transaction.
LayerZero Labs: LayerZero Labs said ZRO will be released in the first half of the year, you already know this.
Gravita Protocol: TGE is planned to be launched at the end of the first quarter or the beginning of the second quarter.
Timeswap: TIME is already in the pre-mining stage, and TGE plans to launch in the first half of the year.
KiloEx: KiloEx plans to conduct TGE in Q1-Q2.
Lumoz: MOZ is expected to be released in Q1-Q2. Or according to another team member, it might even be released in the second quarter.
Magpie Protocol: TGE planned for 2024. The team says it's "sooner than you think," so I think it could be in the first half of the year.
Reya Labs: Reya Labs (a product of Voltz) requires Reya as part of the protocol design. The mainnet is planned to be released in the first quarter, but the tokens are planned to go online shortly after the passive LP is enabled.
Satori: Satori teased us with a "belated Christmas gift", which makes me think TGE may be in the first half of the year. It would be too bad to tie the second half of the year to last year's Christmas, wouldn't it?
3, Q2:
Blast: Points can be redeemed in May, so TGE may be conducted during that period.
Fyde Treasury Protocol: FYDE is scheduled to be released in April-May.
Kroma: TGE will be conducted in June.
ether.fi: TGE is scheduled to start in April 2024.
4, Q2-Q3
Berachain: Berachain main network requires the use of tokens, so TGE is likely to be on the main network Published during the release period. But some people say it may be Q2 or Q2-Q3.
5 , Q2-Q4
Ekubo: Is Ekubo climbing up the rankings? EKUBO plans to release in Q2-Q4.
6, Q3-Q4
GRVT: GVT is planned to be launched in Q3-Q4 of 2024.
Monad: Monad is An L1, which will pay gas fees using MONAD tokens. Therefore, we can expect TGE to launch around their mainnet launch date. The mainnet is planned to be released “later” in 2024.
7 ,2024OtherTGE
azuro: AZUR TGE is scheduled to take place this year, but it is not known when. A lot of people are speculating that it could be the first quarter, but we can't confirm that.
Element NFT Market: You can accumulate ELE by holding their genesis NFTs. There is no specific release date for ELE, but it will definitely be this year.
Orbiter Finance: Orbiter Finance has confirmed their token issuance plans for this year. No further details were released.
Polyhedra: The Polyhedra network has revealed the airdrop standards, but has not yet announced a specific TGE date.
Mangrove: Mangrove is planning this year’s TGE and has even begun discussing how to conduct DAO governance.
Optimism: What will be carried out is not a TGE, but a further OP airdrop. Given that we already received some OP tokens last year, it’s safe to assume that we will receive at least one more airdrop in 2024.
Rabby wallet: Rabby Keeps telling us that certain snapshots have been taken. Unless it's a points snapshot.
Aztec: I feel This is the most exciting thing. Aztec V3 will be relaunched as a fully decentralized (i.e. AZTEC) network. Their roadmap is very ambitious, and if everything goes well, it is likely that the mainnet will be launched this year.
In the period from 2022 to the first half of 2024, the model of strong VC endorsement + large airdrops to the "community" + issuing coins first and then doing things has become the mainstream trend of the market. The super high premium of terminal exchanges in TGE makes their preferences determine that this is the most reasonable path.
