BBQCoin (BBQ): Grill Your Way to Rewards on TON
2024 has been an excellent year for The Open Network (TON), whose ecosystem has seen a buzz of successful projects attracting millions of users. The Telegram-backed blockchain leverages the social media's vast user base to create viral narratives revolving around social interactions and apps.
One such narrative is tap-to-earn games, such as Notcoin and Hamster Kombat, which have experienced phenomenal success as users have embraced them in pursuit of riches.
BBQCoin is the latest entrant into the tap-to-earn craze on TON, and the project is already creating a buzz as users rush in to make a fortune through tapping.
Let’s explore this click-to-earn game further.
Key Takeaways:
BBQCoin is a tap-to-earn Telegram project, based on TON’s blockchain, in which you can accumulate in-game BBQcoins by simply tapping on your screen.
The project's first phase is its tap-to-earn game, but BBQCoin's road map includes other products, such as lightweight games, on-chain trading, off-chain OTC trading and a token issuance platform.
BBQCoin's native token is BBQ. You can get the BBQ token through Bybit's IDO, which is available for presale between Oct 28 and Nov 3, 2024.
What Is BBQCoin?
BBQCoin is a Telegram-based clicker project whose initial game is powered by TON’s blockchain. It’s designed as a social learning platform on which users earn simply by tapping on a screen. The BBQCoin app on TON is modeled on the GameFi niche of web3, in which users earn from participating in fun activities.
BBQCoin launched on TON to leverage Telegram's extensive user base of around 900 million users, and has a vibrant community that can easily scale the project.
The broader vision for the project is to provide a vibrant GameFi and decentralized finance (DeFi) ecosystem, incorporating AI and VR technologies, that will include token issuance, lightweight games, OTC escrow trading and on-chain trading. Players are envisioned to have the capability to own non-fungible tokens (NFTs) in the form of “BBQ rooms,” which can be customized according to their preferences. However, in the project's first phase, BBQCoin focuses on its tap-to-earn game in which participants mine or earn in-game BBQcoins as they climb up the leagues by mastering the game.
The circulating currency for the BBQCoin project is BBQ, which users earn as they engage with the platform.
