Open Builders, the team behind the notable clicker game Notcoin, has launched a new initiative called Earn. This program is designed to reward Telegram users who hold TON-based tokens, providing a straightforward method for participants to earn rewards without engaging in complex staking processes.
What is the Earn Program?
The Earn program operates as a launchpool platform, specifically crafted for users of TON-based tokens in their TON Space wallets. This non-custodial wallet, integrated directly within Telegram, allows users to send and receive Toncoin, NFTs, and Jettons (fungible tokens on the TON blockchain) seamlessly through the messaging app.
Earn marks a significant step for Notcoin, as it aims to foster greater participation within the TON ecosystem.
By enabling users to unlock rewards merely by holding tokens, the program simplifies the process of earning, moving away from the traditional staking models that can often confuse new users.
How Do the Rewards Work?
Rewards in the Earn program are derived from airdrops initiated by new project launches targeting holders of existing Telegram-linked, TON-based coins. This means that users holding tokens like NOT and DOGS can receive additional tokens from new projects without needing to take any extra steps.
Participants can engage in multiple project pools simultaneously, such as the Notcoin Pool or the DOGS Pool. Rewards are distributed hourly based on users’ rankings from on-chain snapshots, which track their holdings.
There are also exclusive pools available for Gold, Platinum, and Early Notcoin Stakers, offering additional layers of engagement for dedicated users.
To join a pool, users simply need to request access. Their wallet balance is checked automatically, and if they meet the eligibility requirements, they can start earning rewards immediately—without the need to transfer funds or stake assets.
Each pool operates independently, with varying conditions. Currently, the program is structured to reward only the top 100,000 holders in each pool, which adds a competitive element to the experience.
Initial Projects and Future Developments
The Earn program has begun with its first featured project, BUILD. This community-driven token aims to incentivize active participation among users in Telegram’s ecosystem.
Additionally, the Earn program is expected to introduce NOT PX tokens this month, further expanding the range of rewards available to participants.
The Context of the Telegram Ecosystem
The introduction of the Earn program coincides with a broader trend of growth within the TON blockchain, particularly driven by the popularity of mini-apps on Telegram. These lightweight, web-based applications can be accessed directly within the messaging platform, which boasts over 900 million users.
This year, Telegram has significantly expanded its footprint in the crypto space. Millions of users are engaging in tap-to-earn games, including Notcoin, Hamster Kombat, Catizen, and Yescoin, all in hopes of earning corresponding tokens on the TON blockchain.
The NOT token, which launched in May, reached a peak market cap of approximately $1.5 billion before settling around $782 million.
In response to the growing interest in crypto and gaming, Telegram has also introduced a mini-app store and an in-app browser that supports Web3 pages, further enhancing user experience.
Wrap Up
The Notcoin Earn program presents an innovative approach for Telegram users to benefit from holding TON-based tokens. By simplifying the reward process and integrating it with the popular messaging platform, Open Builders is positioning the Earn initiative as a key component of the evolving TON ecosystem.
As users participate in various project pools and engage with new tokens, the Earn program aims to sustain user interest and drive growth within this burgeoning digital landscape.
