Notcoin started as a Telegram-based viral clicker game that allowed users to earn in-game coins by simply tapping a virtual coin on their phone screen. What began as a meme quickly evolved into a Web3 phenomenon, capturing millions of users worldwide.
🚀 From Game to Blockchain
Created by the Open Builders team, Notcoin tapped into the viral power of social media. Players competed for leaderboard spots, completed quests, and invited friends — all while earning Notcoins. The project gained explosive traction with over 30 million players, and in early 2024, it made the leap to the TON (The Open Network) blockchain.
With this move, in-game Notcoins were converted into real crypto tokens. Holders could now trade them, stake them, or participate in Notcoin's broader ecosystem of mini-games and Web3 experiences.
🌐 Why It Matters
Notcoin represents a new model of onboarding users into crypto:
Simple gameplay as the entry point
Massive virality through Telegram's massive user base
Airdrops and token utility that reward participation
It’s not just a meme — it’s a blueprint for gamified user onboarding into decentralized ecosystems.
