The Telegram game W-Coin has announced a new policy that will burn players' token allotments if they remain inactive for three days. This rule, introduced ahead of the game’s upcoming airdrop on The Open Network (TON), is designed to encourage player engagement within the game's ecosystem.
According to an announcement made by W-Coin, players who do not log in for three consecutive days will see 5% of their token supply burned each day until they return to the game.
This approach contrasts sharply with similar tap-to-earn games, such as X Empire, which allows a 30-day grace period before any tokens are affected. The developers claim that this measure will enhance opportunities for active players and potentially increase the value of W-Coin ahead of its token launch.
Community reactions to the new policy have been mixed. While some players view the burn as a means to secure a larger share of tokens during the forthcoming airdrop, others have criticized the three-day limit as excessively harsh, particularly for a game that follows a simple clicker format.
Notably, subscribers to W-Galaxy, the premium version of W-Coin, will be exempt from the inactivity burn.
W-Galaxy offers two tiers, Complete and Lite, priced at 249 and 149 stars, respectively. For context, the minimum purchase for stars is 250 for approximately £5.94 ($7.53).
W-Coin's token launch is anticipated to take place in December, with an airdrop planned shortly thereafter. The game conducted a “snapshot” at the end of October to record on-chain data, and a final snapshot is expected before the token listing.
This data will inform the token allocations for eligible participants during the airdrop, with 70% of the total supply designated for distribution.
