 Catcoin FAQs

  • Catcoin is the first cat memecoin. The genesis block was mined on 23rd December 2013, at 23:03:52 GMT, by the mysterious Catoshi Nakamoto.

    Since its inception, Catcoin has maintained strong ties with the Doge community, which was established just days before Catcoin's launch. The phrases “Dogecoin to the Moon” and “Catcoin to Mars” were popularized by the communities.

    For over a decade, Catcoin's dedicated community has supported the blockchain, ensuring its uninterrupted continuous operation. This commitment stems from our unwavering belief that Catcoin and Dogecoin, will once again be together at the forefront of memecoin culture.

  • Catcoin was designed to function as "Bitcoin in Scrypt", which means it operates similarly to Bitcoin but uses the Scrypt hashing algorithm instead of Bitcoin's SHA256.

    Like Bitcoin, Catcoin has a maximum supply of 21 Million coins. Supply is distributed to network nodes when they make blocks, with the amount cut in half every 210,000 blocks. Block times are variable and aim to average one every 10 minutes but historically they have taken slightly longer (roughly 12 minutes).

    You can explore the Catcoin network transactions using the Block Explorer.

  • The Catcoin blockchain is not owned by any single corporate entity. It is completely open-source, permissionless, decentralized, and operates on a peer-to-peer basis.

    Security on the network is maintained by miners who perform computational work to confirm transactions within each block. In return for their efforts, miners receive a small amount of Catcoin as a reward.

    The supply of Catcoin is decentralised and spread across numerous holders. A large portion of the supply has been inactive for a number of years and is assumed to be lost. Here is a list of the top 100 wallets.

  • In April 2024 Catcoin started recieving more attention and there was an influx of new holders. This has revitalised the community with many members wanting to work to build and expand the project. We are seeking to achieve the potential that Catcoin has always had being the First Cat Memecoin. Eventually we hope to once again reach parity and equality with our friends at Dogecoin.

    Our focus is divided into three key areas:

    Development - of the Catcoin blockchain with improvements and efficiencies and an updated wallet.

    Exchanges - Centralized and Decentralized exhchange listings, a 2 Way Bridge to ETH allowing trading on Uniswap.

    Marketing - Catcoin is a hidden diamond in the rough, we need to polish it and get the message out.
