The Role of Airdrops in the Crypto Environment
Airdrops are a key marketing strategy in the blockchain space, attracting new users and building active communities. For participants, airdrops provide a way to earn tokens without initial investments, while projects gain the opportunity to grow their user base and increase interest. As a highly engaging platform, Telegram is an ideal space for these events, reaching a broad audience and facilitating interaction.
Leading Projects Launching Airdrops on Telegram
In November 2024, several blockchain projects integrated with Telegram have announced plans for airdrops. These projects reward users who complete simple tasks or participate in referral programs. Notable airdrops include:
- MAJOR — A gaming platform focused on interactive experiences and participation rewards.
- Blum — A hybrid crypto exchange offering users daily token mining opportunities.
- TonStation — A TON blockchain-based platform where participants can earn SOON tokens.
- Not Pixel — A Web3-integrated project with a unique rewards system.
- TapSwap and SEED — Platforms with gamification elements and referral bonuses.
MAJOR: Gaming Platform with Activity Rewards
MAJOR is a gaming platform designed as a mini-app within Telegram, with its token set for launch in early November. Expectations are high as large cryptocurrency exchanges like Binance and Bybit plan to list this new Telegram project token. Based on the project's tokenomics, 80% of the token’s total issuance will be distributed to users, while the remaining 20% is reserved for marketing initiatives and further development.
Participation in the MAJOR airdrop requires completing various tasks within the project's Telegram bot. However, some community members have raised concerns, as recent measures to combat bot farms and prevent dishonest participants from the airdrop have resulted in bans for certain users. Some of these users feel they were unfairly penalized and have voiced dissatisfaction with the team’s approach.
Blum: Hybrid Exchange with Daily Token Mining
Blum is a hybrid cryptocurrency exchange that aims to simplify transactions within and beyond the blockchain. Currently, the platform functions as a typical mini-app within Telegram, integrating some “tap-to-earn” features to engage users interactively.
Blum’s full launch is anticipated within this quarter. According to the project’s founder and CEO, Gleb Kostarev, the most active participants will be rewarded for their engagement. He noted that referring more than five friends does not increase a user's chances, creating a fair playing field based solely on game activity rather than referral count. Users can also participate in daily mining activities through the “Drop Game” mini-game, earning BLUM tokens, with extra points awarded for additional tasks like watching YouTube videos.
TonStation: Earning Potential on the TON Blockchain
The SOON token is central to the TonStation platform, a component of the TON (The Open Network) blockchain ecosystem. Players earn tokens by building virtual stations within the platform, with a listing of the TonStation token scheduled for early November. The integration with TON brings substantial demand from an already active user base.
Notable figures in the blockchain space, such as Solana’s creator Anatoly Yakovenko, have shown support for TonStation. To join the TonStation airdrop, users must complete specific tasks, which grant points redeemable for SOON tokens.
Not Pixel: Unique Web3-Based Rewards System
In Not Pixel, users earn points by drawing pixels, a concept that’s gained attention due to the project’s innovative Web3-based gaming mechanics. The launch of the platform’s PX token is expected in November.
In addition to pixel-drawing, users can participate in airdrop tasks by using the project's interactive Telegram bot. These tasks add a unique, creative dimension to earning rewards and participating in the Not Pixel ecosystem.
TapSwap: Gamification Elements and Rewards Through Referral System
The TapSwap token listing is anticipated for mid-November. This platform allows players to earn TAPS tokens by tapping the screen, a simple and accessible mechanism aimed at a broad user base. TapSwap has a close partnership with the crypto exchange OKX, enhancing its reach and visibility.
As the TapSwap team announced, they are in the final stages of preparing for the Token Generation Event (TGE), which will include the much-awaited airdrop. Many in the crypto community have been eagerly awaiting the TGE for TapSwap. The project team has consistently emphasized that they are committed to building a product of lasting value, which requires careful preparation and time.
SEED: Incentives for Active Participants Through Bonuses
Seed Combinator is one of the top five most profitable mini-apps on Telegram, attracting over 21 million monthly players. The project leverages the popularity of tap-to-earn, a model that has found substantial traction among users.
In the game, players grow trees to collect SEED tokens. To join the November airdrop, users must complete specific tasks, with additional points available for referrals. Recently, the development team announced a new feature, "Battle SEED," where players can compete with each other for tokens, adding a competitive aspect to the SEED platform.
Conclusion: Telegram Projects and Airdrop Prospects
Telegram projects with airdrops are becoming a significant part of the cryptocurrency space. They enable participants to earn tokens without investment and promote blockchain technology by attracting new users. Through Telegram, these projects access a broad audience, building active communities and expanding their user base.
