Some Catizen players were upset with their token allocations during the airdrop, since the team had initially allocated a larger percentage of the total supply. However, the team decided to reduce the number of tokens shortly before the distribution event and instead opted to divert 9% of the original amount to Binance Launchpool.
The team was also criticized for how some players’ eligibility weightings were calculated.
