A new token connected to a viral game on the encrypted messaging platform Telegram, Notcoin (NOT) printed fresh all-time highs this week after surging by nearly 160%.

NOT is a community token for the popular Telegram-based tap-to-earn mining game Notcoin that began trading on May 16th when Binance rolled out support for the asset via its Launchpool platform, which lets users stake coins to farm new assets.

Notcoin says it already has more than 1.6 million on-chain holders, more than the memecoins Shiba Inu (SHIB), Bonk (BONK) and Pepe (PEPE).

The token is issued on The Open Network (TON) blockchain, which was initially developed by Telegram. 

The messaging platform parted ways with the chain in 2020 following a legal battle with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).

The Open Network, an open-source community of developers, took over management of the technology that year.

TON, however, can still be sent by Telegram’s 700 million users within the platform without entering long wallet addresses.

The 80th-ranked crypto asset by market cap is trading at $0.0127 at time of writing, up from $0.00489 seven days ago.
