A Token Generation Event (TGE) is the formal process of creating and distributing new cryptocurrency tokens to the public. This typically involves a smart contract on a blockchain, which mints the tokens and manages their initial allocation. TGEs are often used by new projects to raise capital and decentralize ownership of their native tokens. It marks the public debut of a new digital asset.
Context
News frequently reports on upcoming and completed Token Generation Events, often analyzing the project’s whitepaper, team, and market potential. Regulatory scrutiny around TGEs is high, with many jurisdictions assessing whether these events constitute the issuance of unregistered securities. Discussions often involve the fairness of token distribution, vesting schedules, and the overall utility of the new asset. Successful TGEs can significantly boost a project’s visibility and funding.
Aster's surge to a record high, driven by a 2000% post-TGE increase, validates its architecture for high-performance decentralized derivatives trading.
