What is TapSwap and How Does It Work?

TapSwap is a fun Telegram clicker game built on the TON blockchain. It’s super popular in the tap-to-earn scene, letting you make money with just a few clicks. The gameplay is super easy: tap the screen, earn tokens, and those tokens will have a price when they get listed on the exchange.

TapSwap takes cues from other hit Telegram games like Hamster Kombat and Notcoin. These crypto games use Telegram’s social features to keep things fun and interactive. While Hamster Kombat is all about running a virtual crypto exchange, TapSwap makes it even easier. You just tap to mine TAPS coins, so anyone can get in on the action.

TapSwap Coin Mining

TapSwap is a blockchain-powered clicker game on Telegram where you can earn tokens by mining within the app. The main goal is to complete missions to boost your in-game currency and earn coins/shares, which you can later exchange for TAP tokens.

TapSwap has gone viral, especially in Nigeria. It’s all about tapping your phone and mining through a Telegram bot. By doing simple tasks in the Telegram game, you earn gold coins (called “shares”), and many believe they can cash these out for USDT once the TAP token launches.

How It Works

• Tap-to-Earn: Users mine coins by tapping the icon in the center of the screen on the Telegram TapSwap bot.
• Leagues: Participants can climb the ranks, earn more coins, and outperform others in different leagues.
• Boosters: Unlock boosters and complete tasks to maximize your coin earnings.
• Friends: Invite friends to join and get bonuses. Help each other climb the leagues for bigger rewards.

Benefits of TapSwap

• No Investment Needed: You don’t need to put any money in to start playing. Just grab your smartphone and get tapping.
• Easy to Use: The mining process is super straightforward and doesn’t require any complicated settings.
• Reliable: Since it’s built on the blockchain within Telegram, it offers high speed and security.

Even though the game’s vision isn’t super clear, some think it’s a smart move to get lots of people into the crypto project without needing to understand the technical stuff behind blockchain technology.

Migration from Solana to TON

At first, TapSwap was supposed to run on Solana, but now the team has decided to switch it to the TON blockchain instead. The project team said it decided to switch to the TON blockchain because it is a better fit, as the app is also based on Telegram.

“…TON [was] the most logical choice for the best user experience,” it said.

So, now you don’t need to connect your Solana wallet to start playing TapSwap.

Pavel Durov about TapSwap

Even the creator of Telegram, Pavel Durov, paid attention to TapSwap. He praised the game in his channel, noting its phenomenal success:

Durov’s attention is a big deal — he also backed the Notcoin game, which ended up getting a full listing and making money for a lot of users. So, we think the hype around TapSwap from the Telegram crowd is going to be huge.

When is TapSwap (TAPS) Token Launching

The launch date for TapSwap (TAPS) has been pushed back to 1st of July 2024. The delay happened because some bots were unfairly earning shares, messing up the token distribution process. This extra time will help the TapSwap team find and ban these bots, making sure the TAPS tokens are given out fairly.

“We’re setting up clear rules for token distribution to keep things fair, but we can’t share them beforehand to avoid any abuse,” said TapSwap.

“We’ve built a monitoring system to track user behavior and identify accounts that should be banned. We’re also thinking about giving dishonest users a chance to voluntarily give up their ill-gotten gains for a percentage of the drop, creating a win/win for everyone,” they added.

The launch was originally scheduled for May 30th 2024, but has been moved to address these issues and ensure a fair launch.

Tokenomics

According to a White Paper making the rounds online, the project has solid tokenomics, including plans for future token distribution. They’re expecting to issue a total of 1 billion tokens, with 50% going to the active community. These details might change if they switch the blockchain they’re using. The tokens will be used for decentralized project management.

Final Thoughts

TapSwap is a cool way to earn cryptocurrency just by playing a game, and you don’t need to invest any money to get started. With the right strategy and active participation, you can boost your earnings and bring in referrals for a steady income. Seeing how well Notcoin did, a lot of people are excited and hopeful that TapSwap will bring them a fortune once the TAP token launches.
