(Update) Telegram Based Airdrops: No Longer Free

In this video, I’m diving into the recent changes happening with Telegram-based airdrops, specifically in tap-to-earn games. What used to be free rewards for all participants is now favoring those who can complete multiple TON transactions. If you’re not making TON transactions, you’re likely just getting “dust”-small, insignificant rewards-while the bigger players are walking away with the lion’s share.
This shift highlights a growing trend where projects are tightening up their airdrop distribution, rewarding more active participants who engage with the TON ecosystem. I’ll be breaking down how this affects you, what it means for future airdrops, and whether this model is setting a new standard for Telegram-based rewards. If you’ve been relying on free airdrops, it’s time to rethink your strategy.
🔥 What to Expect in This Video:
Overview of Telegram tap-to-earn games and how the TON Blockchain is shaping rewards.
How the recent TON transaction requirement impacts airdrop distribution.
A look at whether these changes are a trend across the industry or specific to certain projects.

No more mining. I'm done. Hate to admit people who said it's a scam are right. Painful.

[@SomzyTechstudio]

Yeah bro.

[@chrisjohnomnia]

Scam is when you don't know what is going to happen. Now you know, you can make your decisions.

kzbin.info/www/bejne/e6S7pqqqaJWcd8U This video predicted this

[@Miss_Untichlobanty]

Maybe you should stop going after popular mining cuz an influencer asked you to but rather go for legit once with serious developers and investors e.g yum party, goat gaming, tooncinator, fintopio, zesh to the moon etc. How many have you heard of? But you realize this people have already raised their liquidity before launching. You can already win 10 usd in some of them without having referral like zesh to the moon which i received with 0 invites. Navigate wisely. Simple

[@SilentStepper]

I don't believe it is a scam. The demand for tap-to-earn games is getting high. This is natural and it's growing faster than I expect.

[@computerleague]

U are such a dedicated person, plus innocent! 10qs bro

[@theresawanger8427]

I will continue to say this, you people who are influencers have not waken up to the power you have over your followers. Tell your followers not to participate. You yourselves should not participate. Once the community says NO, all of them will revert to the old method of mining. Let's stop sounding like beggars to these projects. This is a wake up call.

[@MamaejimaIjeoma]

Like my brother will always tell me not to make any transaction to any game that they will end up as dust. The thing now is every game is requesting for this ton transaction and they will still not reward people that did the ton transaction handsomely

[@s.c.udugama1393]

You’re right 😢

[@Harriono]

If you do only one Ton transaction that is when you will not be rewarded. If you do lots of Ton transaction you will be rewarded handsomely, go and ask CATS and Catizen.

[@myvzer]

They are nothing without people. Let the people who have money contribute transactions to them which are the (1%) the rest of us won’t get anything from us

[@bashiribrahim1612]

So if they needed me to send them money, then I would like to know how much I will make at the end of the project

[@botman7409]

If any transaction is needed, leave it and forget about it.

People screaming LAMBO are also culpable. When you raise your expectations too much about something you always end up getting nothing. Now the Players are now the Players. 😂😂

[@s.c.udugama1393]

Lambo will be gifted to only one person, all the others are contributing to the fund. Am I right?

[@jermeeljiddern9603]

​@@s.c.udugama1393and that one person may be is within them not an ordinary person like me and you. Additionally, the total number of the TON transactions which made by the people who participated in the giveaway today, is currently now higher than that the amount of the $$ which memefi used and bought the LAMBO as giveaway. 😀

Don't ever invest what you can't afford to lose. That is crypto for you. Also, any project that has tens of millions of persons playing it is going to end up as a dust storm.

What about the 0.2 Ton that we did, Was it not dust still? How are we even sure the OG Ton Transaction many others did, they got any good money from it?

[@chrisjohnomnia]

Scarmers have shifted to Telegram tapping projects.

[@leshjmoth7208]

I will rather buy existing coins, with my money, to hold for bullrun, bcz they gather our tons and list with dust prices

[@tonyeffiong5540]

Exactly my concern. In spite of the Ton transactions one does, the project will eventually come and list with multiple zeros and won't still give you enough tokens that will even equate the money you spent in doing ton transactions. This is a modern day scam It's no longer business as usual. Scammers have hijacked the airdrop business

[@Mason.Greenwood]

Tapecoin also collected ton transaction. Yet refused to launch, they have effectively ran away with our money. Thieves

[@markbrunt914]

funny enough non of this air drops say there is ton transaction at the start of start of the project , they start bringing it up once it is nearing listing time , i really think this are time wasters

​@antifake11 Major will reward those who spend

[@isabulama-tu1qe]

I believe you dia

[@EvilicsWalkson]

Blum might still serve dust after recuiting 70 million on board . I will advise you put your hopes on MAJOR instead and make sure you complete some transaction to put you on safer side.

[@theresawanger8427]

The community has the power to call the shots yet we are here whining. Let us tell them we will not mine. Get all influencers together and do a meeting to put a stop to this scam.

[@MamaejimaIjeoma]

My shop neighbor is still in police cell. Why? Because he borrowed (300k to pay 400k in 3months) from someone for a particular project he's doing. But his hope was on hamster combat😂😂.

How in the world would these newbies borrow money on the notion to pay back from an airdrop...who fucking does that??? Pls y'all should stop it.

Making the ton transactions isn't the major problem here. But after the transactions, they end up listing nonsense that to recoup the money you spent for the tons transactions becomes impossible. Half of it, you hardly get. To me, once bitten, twice shy.

[@Bryanzmusicc_]

Bullshit.. been doin crypto for a good few years n I will happily tell you this, there are various types of airdrops (paid, free, and some like to combine both) 1. Paid airdrops let you know from day one that you have to make transactions to be eligible for airdrop (such as swaps, mint nfts, etc) 2. Free ones also let you know from day one (tapping, complete tasks etc) 3. Hybrid ones combine both free n paid features but still make it “FAIR FOR EVERYONE TO WIN”, where if you really started early, you would get rewarded quite similarly to someone who joined late but still managed to pay to boost their rank. All while paid features “ARE NOT COMPULSORY” But if a “free airdrop” “DEMANDS” for transactions as initial criteria then I’m sorry but thats a *RED FLAG*.
