Recently, TON ecological mini-games have been very popular, especially after NOT successfully went viral . According to data analysis, the scale of Notcoin's airdrop exceeded the sum of ZKsync and LayerZero , with 11.5 million users applying for airdrops and a value of more than $2.5 billion, surpassing the recent popular projects ZKsync and Layerzero.
Currently, there are four ways to play in the TON ecosystem.
First, buy TON.
TON has a market value of 18 billion US dollars, and SOL has a market value of 63 billion US dollars. If you think TON and SOL are Ethereum killers of the same level, then TON has 3.5 times of room for growth. In addition, according to data, TON has surpassed Ethereum in daily activity. The number of active addresses of TON is close to 600,000 per day, while Ethereum maintains between 400,000 and 500,000. Can it still impact Ethereum?
Second, buy tokens of other projects on the NOT or TON chain .
NOT has a market value of 1.6 billion, ranking second among TON chain concept coins, and its popularity is still very high. According to common sense, the increase in NOT's value should spread to other tokens, but most of the tokens on the TON chain are "parallel imports", and there are almost no real competitive ones, and we still need to wait for the ecosystem to mature.
Third, enter the TON chain for mining.
History has proven that the gameplay of infrastructure such as DeFi is likely to reappear on each new chain.
DEX, lending, NFT platform, MEME launcher, etc., only with these infrastructures can there be money on the chain and the myth of wealth can be created.
At present, the TVL of TON chain is only 670 million US dollars, mainly concentrated in the top projects. The following is the top ten TVL list on DefiLlama, including DEX, lending, staking, etc. The functions of these projects are the same, and DeFi veterans can easily get started without difficulty.
These projects not only have the expectation of issuing coins, but also have high mining returns. For example, the annualized return of LPs of STON.fi, TON and USD is as high as 74.98%.
Fourth, play games.
This round of TON craze started with the BOT new listing robot, which is obviously due to the game Notcoin. It can be seen that a large number of game dealers are pouring into TON.
The following games are currently very popular and may become the successors of Notcoin. Whether you can get listed in a large exchange depends on luck, but there is hope for a second-tier small exchange.
1. MomoAI
Evaluation: The core gameplay of the game is to earn points and upgrade. You don't need to click like crazy to play, and it doesn't take time. Good reviews + likes. This game was on other platforms in the early days, and now it is on TON. There are investments from institutions such as Huobi and LD capital, and the background looks good. The popularity is average, and it feels like now is a good time to get involved.
2. Pixeltap
Comments: This is a pet battle game. You can get coins by completing tasks every day, and use the coins to upgrade your pets. You can also get coins by fighting pets... It is interesting, but it is boring to fight all the time. It is very popular and the competition is fierce. It has 12 million daily active users and has raised $5.5 million in financing.
3. Hamster Kombat
Evaluation: The core gameplay of the game is to click frantically to get coins, which is very boring, so I give it a bad review. There are also some daily tasks, which are relatively interesting. In comparison, Hamster Fighter is very popular, but the competition is also fierce, and the expected returns will not be too good. The token was issued on the TON network in July. This project can definitely enter the second-tier exchanges, and the token HMSTR has been listed on the pre-trading market of Gate.
4. Catizen
Comments: This is a cat synthesis game, which requires crazy synthesis of cats. It is very boring and has a bad review. Like Hamster Fight, the competition is fierce, with more than 20 million users, and it is very popular.
5. Yescoin
Comment: This game is just like Notcoin except that you can swipe your phone left or right to get coins.
There are many other types of games on TON, such as the replica of Traveling Frog, where you can collect clovers to upgrade the frog, unlock treasure chests, and get FROG income. There is also a replica of "Sheep Goat". There is also football P2E Fanton Fantasy Football, slot machine Coin Crypto, dice Boom up, tower defense RoyalFortress, and money printing machine Brrrrrr...
Overall, old-school gaming is experiencing a renaissance in TON games.
In addition to games, there are some very strange things, such as the Web3 version of Momo and the RWA project. They have offline diamond business, and Telegram has a game of winning diamonds by dotting.
We can't just throw ourselves into this without caring about anything now, we have to make choices.
1. Check how many Twitter followers you have.
2. Take a look at their operational capabilities, such as how much they interact with the TON official account, and how much they interact with accounts such as well-known exchanges and Web3 wallets.
3. TON games are highly homogenized, so we should pay attention to innovative games.
4. Pay attention to The Open League. TON officially sponsored $200 million in incentives this year to encourage users to interact with projects on the Open League. There are not only various games, but also NFT and DeFi projects, which together constitute TON's Web3 ecosystem.
