Few trends have been as strong as Telegram gaming over the past year. With this momentum set to accelerate even further in 2025, some investors are banking on Dogizen, a new presale project with the goal of becoming the number one spot for Telegram gaming. It’s already secured $2.9m in funding and it’s signaling serious parabolic potential. Here’s why.
Why 2025 will be the year of Telegram gaming
Telegram was once a simple messaging app. However, following an integration with The Open Network (TON) in 2023, it’s become a hotbed for Web3 innovation. Telegram gaming is a particular highlight, with 20% of all Web3 games launching on Telegram in 2024. Recent successes like Hamster Kombat, which skyrocketed to 300 million users, and Catizen, generating over $30 million in revenue, are two prime examples of the buzzing ecosystem.
Much like how WeChat’s mini-games have become a hub for mobile gaming in China—now with over 500 million monthly active players—Telegram gaming is expected to be a Western rival. Animoca Brands’s chairman believes Telegram could be the next leading platform to onboard a new generation of crypto users.
This is all set against the backdrop of a booming mobile gaming, GameFi, and crypto market. Mobile gaming and GameFi are projected to grow at a CAGR of 17.1% and 25.4% through 2032, respectively. In 2025, thanks to a pro-crypto Trump administration and SEC chair, even more billions could flow into crypto.
It’s clear there’s a revolution underway in GameFi and mobile gaming. And Dogizen, with its plan for a one-stop Telegram gaming ecosystem, could be one of the best opportunities to take advantage of this trend.
Can Dogizen 100x this year?
Dogizen leverages the success of its initial Telegram game to build an entire Telegram gaming ecosystem called Dogizen Universe. In 2024, Dogizen launched its debut title, which saw 1.4 million players sign up and hundreds of thousands generate monthly revenue.
It’s also a historic first: the first-ever ICO held directly on Telegram—meaning investors can buy and claim tokens with no external wallets or complex steps required—which has helped it raise more than $2.9m so far.
The Dogizen Universe is just as exciting. This gaming arcade will offer players dozens of titles filled with earning opportunities, including a revenue-sharing scheme and 101% staking yields for DOGIZ holders. At the same time, developers will be able to launch games to a ready-made audience of millions using Dogizen’s SDKs.
Going beyond its rivals as a launchpad for Telegram gaming, the future looks bullish. Rumors are that Dogizen is in talks with Binance for a listing, given that other TON projects were listed on the exchange in 2024. But with a market cap of under $10 million on launch, 100x could be on the cards if Dogizen can surge to a $1 billion market cap.
The conditions are ripe for Dogizen’s explosion
The Universe already puts Dogizen leagues ahead of the competition, but it has another key factor in its pocket. While projects like Hamster Kombat and Catizen hit exchanges in the chop around the middle of 2024, Dogizen is debuting just as things are really starting to heat up in Q1 2025, and its presale concludes on the 7th February. That momentum could carry it much, much higher beyond its current price of $0.000081.
Tokens look like a steal right now—consider a position in this future Telegram gaming leader before it’s too late.
