Introduction
Hi everybody!
A lot has been going on for the Catgirl Team, and we’re looking forward to sharing some updates with you. We know many of our community members have been anxiously waiting to hear some updates and news. We assure you the team is all hands on deck working full time to bring our Catgirl dreams to life!
Let’s chat!
Since the release of our product on Oct 21st, our project has seen an exponential amount of growth. Many new people from around the globe came rushing in to see what we were all about. After spending countless of hours working on our product, we had gained traction and this was very exciting for our team.
Catgirl is the first of it’s kind, and we can firmly say we now have become one of the fastest growing projects on the Binance Smart Chain! We are so thankful for each and every one of you, without our community none of this would have been possible. We believe we have one of the best communities out there! Whether you are a fan of finance, anime, or gaming we were able to reach the hearts of a variety of investors. We already see some die hard fans on our Discord and Telegram, which we adore.
So what’s next?
The big question, what’s next for Catgirl? We have regularly been posting updates regarding “Farming coming soon”, but how soon is soon? We aren’t exactly ready to give that answer yet, however we’ve been making steady progress every single day, and starting this week, each week we will be releasing a new progress report. We hope this will help fill the gaps between announcements and anxiously awaiting holders. So without further ado, let’s jump right in.

Product Preview
New Navigation for the App
With the ever growing nature of our web app (Catgirl Hub) we’ve seen a necessity to expand for more links. Plenty of successful apps utilize a sidebar in order to store links and information, so Catgirl is getting a new sidebar in v2.0!
NekoFuse (WIP)
What is NekoFuse you ask? Here you will be able to supply either Common or Rare Catgirls in order to “craft” to a Catgirl rarity above. Some more details below.
⚠️ Please be aware nothing shown is final, and is subject to change.
Fusion Start Screen
On the top left you will have an “inventory” displaying all your obtained Catgirls, along with a filter to filter them out. On the right side, we will have a “Fusion Area”. This is where all the fusion work will happen.
Selecting Catgirls for Fusion
We begin by selecting the Catgirls we want to add to the Fusion Area, then we click “Add to Fusion” which will turn the selected Catgirls border into green and stage them into the Fusion Area.
Success Rate
After adding the required 10 Catgirls, a success rate will display on the screen. This will be based on the Catgirls collective Nya Score. Since all our common Catgirls are 79 Nya Score (as seen on the cards), the success rate is 79%!
Click on Fuse, and you will be promoted with a popup dialogue asking you to confirm the action:
Success!
If you succeed, you will be greeted with this screen showing your newly generated Catgirl and their Nya score. You will also see which Catgirls you have burned in order to generate your new Catgirl.
Failed!
Uh oh! based on a number of factors, your fusion may fail. We will announce what will happen if you fail at a later date.
Style Guide (WIP)
Every big app needs one. Although the initial release of our product had a small style guide, we have overhauled the way our style guide works, with all components being reusable. Any changes made to a component will reflect in every page of the app, no more copy and pasting. This allows us to quickly prototype the design features, without compromising too much time. (we are still building out dark mode).
More details and updates
Season Two Catgirls!
Our artist is working on the Season Two Catgirls, we will begin showing them off as they are completed, in a similar format we did in the past. The artist for Season Two will be the same beloved artist from Season One. We have been searching for other quality artists to join the Catgirl team, however as we have a very high standard for the quality of the art, and there are only a few artists that match our expectation. We will try our best to find more artists and keep you informed about any new artists that will join the team.
Incorporation has been finalized!
What does this mean and why is it important? Many people are not sure why we are taking this route now instead of later. Allow us to explain the benefit here. : Our goal is to become a global brand with multiple products and services. This will allow us to trademark our products, as well as allow us to open up more opportunities to partner with other companies and brands. This also allows for easier team expansion, which will expedite our roadmap.
What plans do we have in the future?
Once Farming + Staking are done, the next release will be Marketplace. After that, we will fully focus on the Play 2 Earn game. We believe this will be a unique and engaging experience while allowing players to generate profit. The P2E game is still in the early planning phases, so please keep an eye out for more updates.
Let’s talk marketing.
The team have seen many users anxious about how we plan to market the token, and when we will market it more. This is understandable as many tokens solely rely on marketing alone to survive. However, Catgirl is a product first, and we must focus our resources into the product before marketing. This does not mean we are opposed to promoting or marketing our product, but we must carefully consider the benefit of the marketing activities. For instance, we just ran a marketing campaign with LA Comic Con, which we believe aligns well with our branding as well as creates exposure in the right area targeting the correct audience. Once our product suite is completed, more resources will be shifting toward marketing.
Thank you, The Catgirl Team
