With the following TGEs planned for this week, interested investors have a chance to join the projects early.

In a recent update, the project’s team announced that its Token Generation Event (TGE) is scheduled for January 23. Its unique allocation mechanics have sparked interest, as the project leverages Collector Score (CS) points instead of relying solely on NFT ownership.
Orbiter Finance
Another interesting watch is Orbiter Finance, a prominent Layer-2 (L2) scaling solution whose TGE is due on Monday, January 20. This event is expected to reward early adopters and participants in the Orbiter Finance ecosystem.

It enables activities such as earning yield, borrowing, lending, trading, and leveraged speculation. Currently in a private testnet, the network already supports over 80 RWA and DeFi ecosystems.
The Plume Network TGE for its PLUME token is on Tuesday after raising $30 million in two funding rounds. Lead investors include Brevan Howard, Lightspeed Faction, and Galaxy, among others.

Ethos Network
Another TGE highlight this week is Ethos Network. This credibility platform incentivizes ethical behavior and generates a score that helps determine whom to trust or avoid. It aims to enhance the crypto economy by making credibility an integral factor in transactions and interactions.

“Ethos mainnet launches Jan 22 @ 18:00UTC on Base,” the network said.
This TGE also comes after the project witnessed a significant increase in the number of profiles, merit that brought the Ethos network to hold its snapshot last week.
BAD Coin
As a side note, meme project BAD Coin had the TGE for its BADAI project scheduled for this week. However, the network has since postponed it, citing strategic partnership negotiations.
“The scheduled BADAI January 20th TGE is being strategically postponed after discussions with key, important partners. While excellence takes time to perfect, rest assured – this adjustment serves to strengthen BAD’s position in the ecosystem. A new launch date will be announced when all elements are optimized for maximum impact,” the announcement read.
