New Year, New Heights: $CATA’s Phenomenal Start and What’s Next
Plus: Why Stake Assets and Earn $CATA Before Everyone Else

As many of you know, we introduced $CATA on Mercata roughly four weeks ago. It has been an amazing token launch and many of you are already staking assets to earn the $CATA token. Total Volume Locked (TVL) has soared to $150,000, and new assets are being added, ready to be staked. But staking to earn is just getting started.

Why Earn $CATA: Two Reasons
First?
CATA gives holders power, enabling everyone to control Mercata’s future and influence its growth.
Second?
Unlike STRATs which are a token with a stable value - $CATA has a variable exchange rate and is not pegged to any asset. The price of $CATA fluctuates as a function of demand and supply for the token within the Mercata Protocol and on secondary markets. Who doesn’t like higher price discovery?
And while Mercata takes staking to new heights, there’s a bigger picture forming. At BlockApps, we’re building digital economies that increase freedom and unlock interconnected ecosystems.
This isn’t just about token prices going up. It’s about building ecosystems with tools like $CATA, STRATs, Mercata, and more at its core.
As everything takes shape, we’re crafting economies that empower individuals and communities alike.
It’s still early and the best is yet to come.
It’s that simple and extraordinarily exciting.
