Last night, Binance announced that Launchpool has launched the 58th project Hamster Kombat (HMSTR), a crypto exchange CEO simulator P2E game built on the Telegram applet platform.
From Notcoin (NOT) to Toncoin (TON), DOGS, and now HMSTR, Binance has continued to exert its strength in the TON ecosystem, once again attracting market attention. So, what other potential investment opportunities are there in the TON ecosystem?
Recently, HC Capital published an article summarizing the TON ecosystem projects that will issue coins and airdrop in 2024, namely: Yescoin, Major, TON Station, MemeFi, X Empire, TapSwap, PocketFi and Blum. Odaily Planet Daily will introduce the gameplay of the above 8 projects for readers' reference.
Yescoin: October 1st
Yescoin is a Telegram-based game that runs on the TON blockchain. Since its launch in May 2024, it has attracted more than 11 million users. The game offers a "Swipe-to-Earn" gameplay. The airdrop mission and game interaction process are as follows:
Connect wallet: Connecting your TON wallet (such as Tonkeeper) with your Yescoin account is crucial to receiving and managing Yescoins.
Swipe to Collect Yescoins: The main mechanic of the game is to swipe the screen to collect Yescoins. There is an energy bar at the bottom of the screen, and swiping consumes energy. When the energy bar is depleted, the speed of obtaining coins will slow down. Players can use various boosts to restore energy faster and improve game efficiency.
Invite friends to earn rewards: Invite friends through the referral link and both you and your friends will get extra Yescoins. If your friends have Telegram Premium, the rewards will be even higher.
Odaily Planet Daily Note: Since this project is very popular on Telegram, there are many imitations and even fake accounts and bots. Please pay attention to identifying the authenticity of related accounts.
Major: October 1
Major is a star rating game designed for Telegram, launched on July 3, 2024. Players improve their ranking by earning stars, and eventually become "big shots" in the community. Stars are the core of player competition, and the number of stars accumulated by players determines their position in the leaderboard and rewards. The game interaction process is as follows:
Gaining Stars: Players can gain stars by completing daily tasks, inviting friends, and completing profiles. Each time you invite a regular user, you can get 15 stars, and each time you invite a premium user, you can get 50 stars. Players can also influence others' ratings by giving stars or voting.
Leaderboard Mechanism: Major player rankings are based on the number of stars earned, and the top 100 players in the weekly rankings can win TON token rewards. The first place will be rewarded with 150 TON tokens, the second place will be rewarded with 100 TON tokens, and so on.
Multiple game modes: Major integrates and develops various types of current TON ecological games, such as click, turntable, and elimination, etc., and earns stars by playing games.
Special features: There are daily login rewards and lottery functions in the game. Users can draw a lottery for free once a day, and they can get an extra lottery opportunity after inviting 10 friends.
TON Station: October 6th
TON Station is a game aggregator that aims to collect game mini-programs in the TON+Telegram ecosystem. It is currently a simple 8-hour regular mining mini-game. The aggregator section has not yet been launched. The TON Station game uses a timed click gameplay to improve its own mining efficiency through tasks, inviting new users, etc. The specific gameplay is as follows:
Click faming to start mining. Each click has 8 hours of mining time.
Users can increase mining power by inviting new users.
Signing in every day will also increase the computing power slightly.
MemeFi: October 9
MemeFi is a Telegram-based "click to earn" game. Players win rewards and tokens by tapping the screen to defeat their opponents. Unlike other click-to-earn games, the goal of Memefi is to destroy the enemy rather than simply tapping coins. Each tap reduces the enemy's health, and players are rewarded with tokens for these taps.
Start the game: Players can enter the game through the MemeFi bot link on Telegram. In the game, the first enemy that players face is Pependalf, a frog in a wizard costume, representing the popular meme image. Players need to defeat this enemy by clicking multiple times before they can get rewards and enter the next challenge.
Reward system: Players can earn tokens by clicking on and defeating enemies in the game. In addition, players can increase their rewards by completing various tasks and bounties, such as following MemeFi’s TikTok or YouTube accounts. Inviting friends to join the game is also a way to increase rewards, with 2,500 tokens available for each friend invited.
In-Game Boosts: Players can purchase in-game boosts to increase their click efficiency, such as a daily reward that increases the damage of each click by 10 times, or unlocking an auto-clicking bot to continue receiving rewards when inactive.
X Empire: October 15
X Empire (formerly Musk Empire), an Elon Musk-themed crypto game based on the Telegram platform, recently announced that it will end its "mining phase" on September 30, marking the final month of the click-to-earn phase of the game, where players can try to earn as many points as possible before the project token airdrop.
The end of the mining phase announced by X Empire means that any in-game progress will not be counted towards the token airdrop after September 30. This is also one of the key steps in the project's preparation for the token airdrop. The airdrop is expected to take place at the end of September or early October. To this end, the team has begun burning game coins from accounts that have been inactive for more than 30 days to ensure a more accurate airdrop.
The specific gameplay is as follows:
Click on the characters to make money, and get passive income every hour.
You can increase your income by upgrading your character's skills. After your character level is raised, you can enable pvp mode.
You can get coins by inviting friends and completing corresponding characters.
TapSwap: mid-October
TapSwap is the latest hit in the click-to-earn game, launched on Telegram based on TON. Since its release, the game has quickly attracted more than 50 million users, with 18 million monthly active users. As one of the top three channels in the Telegram community, TapSwap also provides a corresponding "SWAP" function and a rich variety of token pairs.
The gameplay of TapSwap is very simple. Players only need to click on the gold coins in the center of the screen to get points. The main mechanism is as follows:
Click to earn points: Players can earn points by clicking on the gold coins in the center of the screen. Each click will consume a certain amount of energy. When the energy bar is exhausted, you need to wait for it to refill before you can continue clicking.
Complete Missions: Players can earn extra points by completing special missions such as joining TapSwap’s social media communities.
Referral rewards: Players can get extra points by inviting friends to join the game, and recommending friends' in-game activities will also bring more points.
Boosters: Get three free boosters every day, including "Tap Master" which increases the points per tap and "Full Tank" which quickly replenishes energy. In addition, players can purchase advanced boosters such as "Multi-Tap" or "Energy Limit" with coins earned in the game.
Tap Bot: When the player is not online, Tap Bot will passively help the player earn points. The player can claim it by signing in once every 12 hours.
TapSwap also provides a corresponding "SWAP" function, and the types of token pairs are also relatively rich.
PocketFi：Q4
PocketFi is a comprehensive solution designed for cross-chain transfers, exchanges, sniping and copy trading, aiming to simplify DeFi operations through Telegram and Mini Apps platforms. Users can exchange TON tokens for other tokens such as ETH through the platform, and can also participate in token sniping and obtain income. PocketFi is a project initiated by George Lozovsky, the creator of the TON Punks NFT series.
PocketFi provides a user interface through a Telegram robot, and the mining process is very simple:
Register Telegram bot: PocketFi_Bot 46.
Collect tokens: Tokens can be collected every 6 hours.
Complete tasks: Improve mining efficiency by completing various tasks.
Invite friends: For each friend you invite, you will receive 10% of their token rewards, and their friends’ friends will contribute 2% to you.
Unclaimed tokens will be destroyed after every 6 hours, so users need to claim them in time.
You need to invite three or more people to qualify for airdrop.
Bloom: Q4
Blum is a decentralized exchange that aims to provide users with token trading services on centralized and decentralized platforms and simplify derivatives trading operations. Blum provides futures trading capabilities and the ability to purchase tokens across networks through mobile applications and mini-applications on Telegram. It is worth noting that Blum was founded by former Binance executives Gleb Kostarev and Vladimir Smerkis and was selected for Binance Labs' MVB accelerator program.
Blum’s current trading function has not yet been launched, but the model of earning points through the mini-game “mining” has attracted a large number of users. The following are the main ways to play Blum:
Get rewards through a points system: Users can earn points by subscribing to Blum’s official social media or inviting friends.
Drop Game mode: Users gain points by tapping the screen to catch falling coins.
Farm mode: No need to deposit tokens, the system automatically mines points for users, which increase over time.
These points will be exchanged for tokens in the future, and users are currently in the collection phase.
Like other projects, you can also earn points by completing tasks and inviting friends.
