PANews reported on December 13th that, according to The Block, the L1 blockchain project Fogo has cancelled its planned $20 million token pre-sale (representing 2% of the total supply). Instead, the FOGO tokens intended for the pre-sale will be airdropped to the community, and the 2% of tokens originally allocated to core contributors will be burned. According to the token economics model, 38.98% of the tokens will be unlocked when the network launches on January 13th. This includes immediately tradable airdrop shares, tokens for foundation operations, and core contributor shares unlocked in installments. The token allocation is approximately 1/3 for the foundation, 34% for core contributors (locked for four years), 8.77% for institutional investors, 7% for advisors, and 11.25% for the community.


BitGo’s move creates further competition in a burgeoning European crypto market that is expected to generate $26 billion revenue this year, according to one estimate. BitGo, a digital asset infrastructure company with more than $100 billion in assets under custody, has received an extension of its license from Germany’s Federal Financial Supervisory Authority (BaFin), enabling it to offer crypto services to European investors. The company said its local subsidiary, BitGo Europe, can now provide custody, staking, transfer, and trading services. Institutional clients will also have access to an over-the-counter (OTC) trading desk and multiple liquidity venues.The extension builds on BitGo’s previous Markets-in-Crypto-Assets (MiCA) license, also issued by BaFIN, and adds trading to the existing custody, transfer and staking services. BitGo acquired its initial MiCA license in May 2025, which allowed it to offer certain services to traditional institutions and crypto native companies in the European Union.Read more
