Next Telegram Gaming Boom Will Come From Reinventing Classics: 'Notcoin' Founders

Summary

Notcoin initiated a tap-to-earn gaming trend on Telegram, attracting millions but facing decline due to token launch failures and market saturation. Founders Sasha and Vladimir Plotvinov aim to revitalize Telegram gaming through the Not Games platform, focusing on engaging gameplay rather than token rewards. They emphasize the importance of creating a sustainable economy using The Open Network (TON) for trading in-game items without "pay-to-win" mechanics. The platform seeks to replicate successful game mechanics from the past while leveraging Telegram's user-friendly access and social virality. Not Games' first title is a reimagined Agar.io called Void, with more games planned. The Plotvinov brothers advocate for rapid development and user feedback to enhance their offerings.
