What’s the best social games after Catizen or Notcoin? The best mini DeFi apps like Unibot, Telefrens, BookieBet, Boxbet, Banabot, Banana Gun, Maestro, BonkBot? "It's not as easy as it looks." Because we are modern [crypto users], and we are not mortals, we are now gods. "Will you maintain and preserve inviolably…?"

TON Space, the self-custodied wallet, does provide private keys but is planning to build out an optional recovery mechanism for users who prefer more accessible recovery methods similar to Coinbase’s smart wallet. Telegram mini-apps of the chain’s largest DEXs, lending protocols, and perp trading platforms. Perp DEX Storm Trade for example, has built its application solely for the Telegram mini-app format.
The founder of Toncoin has said that 94% of Notcoiners had come from referrals. SquidTG, a game leveraging inscriptions, has boasted a strong Telegram to onchain conversion rate at ~60%. As The Open League continues, more and more developers will be targeting onchain metrics in order to win rewards, also acting as TON’s best sources of onboarding activity.
So far the blockchain has managed to process over 8 million transactions a day (~92 TPS) at its peak without any issues, but problems arose during TON’s own inscription craze, when the basechain split into 11 shardchains within a rapid window. Due to intense load on certain validators, select shardchains’ processing speeds dropped to 1 TPS - highlighting that test results are unreliable when stresstesting the blockchain in real conditions.

Why do some large social networks suddenly fade away, or lose out to new tiny networks? Why do some new social networks with great single-player tools fail to transform into networks, while others with seemingly frivolous purposes make the leap? Why do some networks sometimes lose value when they add more users? What determines why different networks stall out at different user base sizes? Why do some networks cross international borders easily while others stay locked within specific countries? Why, if Metcalfe's Law holds, do many of Facebook's clones of other social network features fail, while some succeed, like Instagram Stories?
What changed Twitter, for me, was the launch of Favstar and Favrd (both now defunct, ruthlessly murdered by Twitter), these global leaderboards that suddenly turned the service into a competition to compose the most globally popular tweets. Recall, the Twitter graph was not as dense then as it was now, nor did distribution accelerants like one-click retweeting and Moments exist yet.
What Favstar and Favrd did was surface really great tweets and rank them on a scoreboard, and that, to me, launched the performative revolution in Twitter. It added needed feedback to the feedback loop, birthing a new type of comedian, the master of the 140 character or less punchline
In a clever move to unbound social capital accumulation and to turn a zero-sum game into a positive sum game, broadening the number of users working hard or engaging, Snapchat deprecated the very popular Best Friends list and replaced it with streaks.
The same way many social networks track keystone metrics like time to X followers, they should track the ROI on posts for new users. It's likely a leading metric that governs retention or churn. It’s useful as an investor, or even as a curious onlooker to test a social networks by posting varied content from test accounts to gauge the efficiency and fairness of the distribution algorithm.
Whatever the mechanisms, social networks must devote a lot of resources to market making between content and the right audience for that content so that users feel sufficient return on their work. Distribution is king, even when, or especially when it allocates social capital.

Storm Trade is a perp DEX on TON that allows users to leverage trade crypto, stocks, forex, and commodities through a web app or within Telegram. Storm has generated $250M in trade volume over the past 30 days, and collected over $500K in fees. is generating most of TON derivatives volume.

How did an app designed by two guys in Shanghai managed to run circles around U.S. video apps from YouTube to Facebook to Instagram to Snapchat, becoming the most fertile source for meme origination, mutation, and dissemination in a culture so different from the one in which it was built?
A machine learning algorithm significantly responsive and accurate can pierce the veil of cultural ignorance. Today, sometimes culture can be abstracted… the most important piece of technology Bytedance introduced to TikTok: the updated For You Page feed algorithm.
https://www.eugenewei.com/blog/2020/9/18/seeing-like-an-algorithm
To help a network break out from its early adopter group, you need both to bring lots of new people/subcultures into the app—that’s where the massive marketing spend helps—but also ways to help these disparate groups to 1) find each other quickly and 2) branch off into their own spaces.
It is a rapid, hyper-efficient matchmaker. Merely by watching some videos, and without having to follow or friend anyone, you can quickly train TikTok on what you like. In the two sided entertainment network that is TikTok, the algorithm acts as a rapid, efficient market maker, connecting videos with the audiences they’re destined to delight. The algorithm allows this to happen without an explicit follower graph.

One of my favorite paragraphs of recent years was one describing the miracle that are Cheetos: To get a better feel for their work, I called on Steven Witherly, a food scientist who wrote a fascinating guide for industry insiders titled, “Why Humans Like Junk Food.” I brought him two shopping bags filled with a variety of chips to taste. He zeroed right in on the Cheetos. “This,” Witherly said, “is one of the most marvelously constructed foods on the planet, in terms of pure pleasure.” He ticked off a dozen attributes of the Cheetos that make the brain say more. But the one he focused on most was the puff’s uncanny ability to melt in the mouth. “It’s called vanishing caloric density,” Witherly said. “If something melts down quickly, your brain thinks that there’s no calories in it . . . you can just keep eating it forever.”
TikTok is entertainment Cheetos. Each video requires so little cognitive exertion and reaches its climax so quickly that it feels like we could keep watching forever, each punch line scored to the most satisfying bass drop or stanza from every pop song. TikTok delivers dopamine hits with a metronomic rhythm, and as soon as we swipe up the previous one melts in our memory.

Memecoin trading tools like BonkBot generated tens of millions of dollars in revenue through Telegram’s user interface. TON-based applications, such as StormTrade, now enable users to trade perpetuals, cryptocurrencies, stocks, and equities using the same interface.
StormTrade facilitates over $10 million in trading volume daily, and we believe that similar TON-native Telegram bots will become the preferred user experience for many traders. With TON’s self-custody wallet, users don’t need to remember their seed phrase; instead, they can simply use Telegram and their email as backup.

Notcoin started as a Telegram-based game that allows users to “mine” the token by tapping. It has since become mostly a memecoin and inspired copycat projects as well as the so-called “tap-to-earn” meta.
The game itself isn’t all that novel, but the price action and the attention it has attracted are certainly worth paying attention to. As we’ve seen on other chains like Ethereum and Solana, sometimes all it takes is a single meme to ignite the wealth effect and onchain animal spirits.

What’s more, unlike central exchanges like Coinbase and Binance, Telegram is fundamentally a social app, meaning that in-app user behaviors differ drastically. In other words, because users login to Coinbase with the intention of trading crypto (a highly solitary and serious behavior), they will undoubtedly have a higher propensity to resist or churn when presented with any casual enjoyment-focused or social features.
Telegram, on the other hand, falls further on the other side of the spectrum, and thus, social-adjacent applications like games are more easily integrated and have a better product-market fit.
Where Catizen and Notcoin stand out through excellent monetization strategies and clever play on Web3 culture respectively, Hamster Kombat shines with its social presence. No game comes close to its community engagement, which saw an average of 2.2M impressions, 20k likes, and 2k+ retweets per post over the last seven days.
In terms of gameplay, Hamster Kombat is very similar to Notcoin at its core. Users access the game, tap on the screen, and accrue points over time. You play as the fictional Hamster CEO of a crypto exchange, and the goal is to mine as many HMSTR coins as possible. Players can boost their earnings by investing in marketing, licenses, talent, and new products in-game or referring new players.
This simple loop has attracted over 200M registered users to date. The prospect of potential returns paired with minimal effort requirements on the user side has led to exponential growth. The team didn’t focus solely on Telegram and Twitter but has put significant efforts into gamifying their YouTube channel. The team releases two 2-minute videos a day—one covering daily crypto news while the other is usually an educational video—and hides clues within the videos to incentivize users to stay continuously engaged.
Their account has grown to 28M+ subscribers, making it one of the fastest-growing YouTube channels ever. Their 137 videos have generated 461M+ views. To put this into perspective from a Web3 gaming standpoint, this comes down to about 100x more than the Illuvium YouTube channel.

To enable payments for digital goods and services across the Telegram ecosystem, we're launching Telegram Stars. Stars can be acquired through in-app purchases via Apple and Google or PremiumBot, then spent on digital products offered by bots – from e-books and online courses to items in Telegram games.
Taxation has been a pivotal source of revenue for Unibot. It has effectively facilitated the bootstrapping of Unibot’s liquidity and operational aspects, especially since they did not seek external funding. Through these mechanisms, Unibot has successfully amassed a revenue of 9.18K ETH, of which a significant 7.3K ETH can be traced back to taxes.
Thanks to the taxes, Unibot has amassed ~$5M in liquidity within their Uniswap v2 pool. Achieving such a liquidity benchmark typically demands a heftier protocol outlay, especially when attempting to bootstrap via incentivized liquidity renting or presales. Notably, through the utilization of taxes, the protocol now holds 42% of this liquidity.
The Orbs Protocol expanded into the TON ecosystem in a big way, developing multiple Layer-3 applications for TON, such as TON-Access, TON Minter, and TON Verifier. With this partnership, TON became the first non-EVM blockchain to explore Orbs’ innovative technologies. They further cemented their relationship this year when Orbs was announced as the main sponsor of two upcoming TON hackathon events.

Trading terminals are very popular among CEX users and will pair nicely with Telegram bots simple app experience. Unibot’s trading terminal, Unibot X, is live, and BananaGun is launching one soon. Telegram bots could become a full-stack professional trading front end across desktop and mobile, with an embedded social layer.
Their perpetual proximity to the hot new thing via Telegram makes trading bots well positioned to capitalize on new narratives first and acquire users. The recent craze around Pandora and ERC404 helped drive Banana Gun to all-time high weekly volume and fees. From Feb.7 – Feb.10, Banana Gun’s top 10 pairs were all ERC404 related.

TON’s ~1M active wallets and ~200k daily transactions are focused on token trading, TON has a rapidly evolving blockchain gaming ecosystem – gaming is one of TON’s core focuses for 2024. Currently, the main way apps monetize is via IAPs, which is a little clunky and unideal for a predominantly hypercasual platform.
Two notable developer publishers early to TON are Nakamoto Games and GAMEE. The former recently created its own multi-coin TON wallet and ported 50 of its casual games to the platform. The latter, creators of hypercasual blockchain gaming portal Arc8, are also one of the largest distributors of games on Telegram. Additionally, Animoca Brands (parent company of GAMEE) recently became the largest validator for TON and will undoubtedly support future gaming initiatives in the ecosystem.

Sanko, now with their L3, has been memecoin trading – SMOKE being the main memecoin so far, with a market cap above $2.5m. Apart from this, someone launched a Pump fork on Sanko called Fanko, with additional memecoin infra being deployed by the community, such as a telegram bot called Dream Bot, which acts just as most telegram bots, allowing users to deploy their wallets, check tickers, and trade tokens – see iLoveSanko.

Telegram bots, such as Unibot, BookieBet, and Boxbet, have provided a makeshift mobile experience that was previously lacking. Telegram bots peaked at 35% of Azuro daily volume, settling around 15%. Their arrival marks a turning point in Azuro’s growth trend, suggesting a truly complete mobile experience would be a powerful catalyst.
Account abstraction, TG bots, PWAs, infrastructure improvements, alternative blockchains like Solana, etc should allow DEX UX to approach that of CEXs over the next few years.

Telegram Bots Take On-Chain Trading by Storm. In last month’s report – Catalysts Stacking Up – Will Narratives Drive Fundamentals? – we discussed some of the “lightweight” narratives that were gaining popularity. This month, we wanted to highlight one of the more exciting trends we’ve been tracking –one that exemplifies what’s possible when early product-market fit, organic usage, and favorable token incentives come together – the rise of chat trading bots.
In recent months, Telegram bots have been all the rage. For the uninitiated, these bots are often run via applications like Telegram or Discord and allow users to quickly transact on DEXs, spin up wallets, snipe contracts, farm airdrops, and much more. Unibot is one of the most popular Telegram bots and is ”focused on bringing the fastest and easiest to use trading tools and snipers to investors.” Over the last few months, these bots have quickly become a more favored and interesting way for people to interact with the on-chain Ethereum casino, and for a pretty good reason.
Ghosts of Cycle Past — The Early Innings of a New Cycle? … the similarity of crypto cycles, Solana’s growing mindshare in markets, the Telegram bot meta (implying higher risk-taking appetite), and macro factors playing in the industry’s favor.
https://members.delphidigital.io/reports/the-delegated-authorization-network-trust-minimization-in-the-age-of-ai (2024-07-02)
From account abstraction to the recent buzz around chain abstraction, builders en masse have recognized the need to present alternate UX options. The most recent and notable example of the desire for revamped UX is the Telegram bot meta.
It’s clear that even the most seasoned on-chain veteran is looking for ways to simplify this convoluted experience. In the case of Telegram bots, they are even willing to compromise on security to achieve this. This trend cannot be ignored, and justifies the search for newer UX models that make good on existing compromises.
Telegram sniping bots and copy trading bots are examples of more primitive agents that offer no significant edge other than simplifying UX and perhaps reducing the amount of time taken to construct, submit, and finalize a transaction. But there are only certain things you can do with these retail bots that exist today – mainly token swaps.

Tact incorporates a strong type system, gas control, and zero-overhead type composition, enabling developers to build complex smart contract systems with verified execution costs. Notable features of Tact include its actor-oriented design, which aligns with the TON actor model, and its gas control mechanisms that ensure safe cross-contract messaging and precise gas commitments.
TON Space. Self-hosted wallet in Telegram: the user keeps their private key, and all smart contracts can be invoked; Release time: September 2023. Usability: Currently in beta, it can be activated in the wallet in the personal account, and only has basic payment and collection functions. In the future, TON Space will act as a blockchain account, fully supporting the TON ecosystem including Toncoin, Jettons, and Collectibles.
Lending Platforms: Presently, there are only two usable pledge platforms (TonStake and Whales Pool) in the TON ecosystem.
Social relations: TON can leverage a social graph protocol based on TNS (TON Naming System) to enhance social interactions. Combining social and trading elements within gaming environments can create engaging social/trade markets. Additionally, providing a sharing and invitation platform can encourage user participation and network expansion.

2. NFT Trading Bot (New Product). The recent success of Unibot for on-chain trading of low-cap altcoins highlights the power of simplifying the trading process. It bypasses common obstacles of using MetaMask: slippage, gas fees, sandwich attacks, and more. A Telegram or Discord NFT trading bot could direct users to Blur’s marketplace aggregator.
Incorporating Blur’s existing analytics infrastructure could make its trading bot top of its class. By charging a transaction fee similar to Unibot, this bot could generate substantial revenue — Unibot generated $10M in fees over 3 months. The simplification of the trading process reduces barriers to entry and facilitates more frequent trading, and hence volume.

Dialect is also an agent. Dialect is a Solana-based Telegram bot that lets users interact with crypto using natural language. Users can buy, sell, swap, or ask for price data, and the Dialect bot will execute those requests.
The Dialect bot is still primitive. If prompted to “buy $10 of $WIF” it will respond with a transaction to swap $10 worth of SOL → WIF, which is not what we wanted. Generic user commands — buy, sell, swap — are still hardcodes on the backend to save on inference costs. If a message doesn’t match a hardcode, it’s sent to chatGPT to figure out what to do.

Tax-tokens impose a tax on any trades/swaps on the project’s token. It’s at the project’s discretion to determine how the tax earned is distributed and utilized. Unibot has amassed 9.18K ETH worth of revenue, of which a significant 7.3K ETH can be traced back to taxes.
Tax tokens haven’t proved ideal for value accrual towards token holders. An investor would need to realize a gain of +8.7% just to offset these taxes. Nonetheless, tax tokens offer a viable approach to raising capital for projects without external funding. It’s crucial, however, to establish clear upper limits on capital raised this way.

Airheads is the first Ordinals collection to use a leaderboard system where your wallet size determines your tier. Unlike other collections with random attributes, Airheads have a clear hierarchy. This approach leverages recursive inscriptions to push the boundaries of what a collection item can represent, making Airheads the only collection genuinely designed for those who invested early and took the most risk.
Airheads are unique Bitcoin Ordinals designed to showcase and flex your wealth. Each Airhead is an inflatable, balloon-like character generated using recursive art to visually represent the size and value of your digital portfolio at the point of mint. With 10,000 Airheads available, these characters use sequential ranking and tier differentiation to reflect asset weightings according to the leaderboard, making them a fun and competitive way to display your wealth.
