A TGE is when a project's token first becomes transferable or claimable according to its launch plan.
TGEs often coincide with listings, airdrops, and sharp volatility.
In research workflows, Token generation event (TGE) is usually interpreted with Airdrop, Exchange listing, and Token unlock rather than as a standalone signal. Compare circulating float, unlock overhang, and where size can actually trade before trusting a breakout headline.
