TapSwap has announced plans to launch its TAPS token on The Open Network (TON) in January 2025. The launch will coincide with an airdrop aimed at rewarding players based on their engagement with the game.
The TAPS token will serve as an essential component of the TapSwap ecosystem, providing holders access to various features, including tournaments, staking rewards, and governance opportunities.
Players interested in receiving the airdrop will need to connect their wallets. Eligibility will be determined by overall activity within the game.
Originally designed as a simple tap-to-earn game, TapSwap has evolved significantly since its launch in February, now boasting over 50 million users globally. In August, the game introduced a city builder mode called “Tappy Town,” where achievements can influence players' chances of receiving TAPS in the airdrop.
The developers have indicated that the game will continue to evolve towards a skill-based platform. This shift includes the introduction of competitive tournaments, moving away from traditional pay-to-win models.
A representative for TapSwap confirmed that this change aims to enhance player engagement and create a more equitable gaming environment.
The Open Network, where TAPS will be launched, is a layer-1 blockchain initially developed by Telegram co-founders Nikolai and Pavel Durov. After regulatory challenges halted its internal development in 2020, a community of external developers took over the project.
