О Tsutsuji the Cate

CATE, as a meme, was born 13 years ago,possibly even earlier. Back then, DOGE had not yet become a memecoin, nor had it reached a $100 billion market cap.

CATE was first documented on July 25, 2013, on Know Your Meme, where it was uploaded by user Crashfalcon’s Skeleton. More than three months later, on December 6, the Dogecoin genesis block was mined, marking its official launch.

CATE and DOGE form a classic meme pairing. They frequently appear side by side, and their imagery has spread across the globe. While DOGE, as a memecoin, surged to a peak market cap of nearly $100 billion, CATE’s value as a meme remains vastly underappreciated.

Much like the popular idea that cats and dogs are eternal rivals, our community believes that the CATE meme is superior and better suited to the world of memes than DOGE.

Dogs wear their emotions openly. Most dog-themed memes tend to be warm and wholesome, with a relatively narrow emotional range. Cats, by contrast, are perfect meme material. They can go from completely aloof to utterly unhinged, with ambiguous expressions that are open to interpretation. Feelings such as burnout, meltdowns, frustration, and overthinking can all be conveyed through a single cat image, making cats fit countless real-life situations.

Let’s revive CATE’s value as a meme and push it toward a $100 billion-plus market cap, surpassing DOGE.
