Catcoin was launched on November 26, 2021 by Miaoshi Nekomoto (the ‘Cat’ of Satoshi Nakamoto). The original creator is anonymous, and there is a doxed and passionate team of crypto veterans that manage the project. Catcoin, the original cat-themed cryptocurrency, was born in December 2013 as the world's first feline memecoin. Launched on December 23, 2013, with its genesis block mined at 23:03:52 GMT by the mysterious creator known as Catoshi Nakamoto (a playful twist on Bitcoin's Satoshi), it emerged just days after Dogecoin in the early altcoin wave. Built as a scrypt-based proof-of-work coin with a capped supply of 21 million (mirroring Bitcoin's scarcity but in the cat meme spirit), it fostered a small but dedicated community tied to cat culture, memes, and lighthearted rivalry with dog-themed coins. For over a decade, this OG version persisted quietly on its own blockchain, outlasting many early projects while staying true to its decentralized, fun roots. The 2021 Catcoin on Binance Smart Chain (BSC) emerged during the meme coin boom as a community-driven feline-themed token, launched on November 26, 2021, by the pseudonymous creator Miaoshi Nekomoto (a fun nod to Satoshi Nakamoto). Positioned as a decentralized rival to dog-themed coins like Shiba Inu, it featured a high supply, locked liquidity, and renounced ownership shortly after launch to emphasize true community control. The project quickly built hype around cat memes, charity elements (like supporting animal rescues, and providing women and youth with trades/STEM education for a better future.), and various early utilities. This OG memecoin on BSC represented the first modern revival of cat-themed crypto energy, distinct from the old 2013 PoW coin, and saw contract upgrades—including a notable V1 to V2 migration around April-May 2022 for enhanced security, better features, and smoother community governance. and fostered a passionate holder base through social media, giveaways, and ecosystem growth. Catcoin essentially paved the way for modern cat meme tokens. Yet as the space evolved, the necessary parameters for a successful memecoin changed. Which brings us to the present moment, where Catcoin is gearing up for its debut Ethereum launch, where it will once again bring to the forefront the project's enduring meme spirit and massive community presence to become an unforgettable force of the meme-industry and challenge the dogs and frogs of today for dominance.
