Imagine being on the massive social app Telegram, where you can not only chat but also play games, transfer money, and earn money. The foundation of this is TON (The Open Network's token). Think of TON as the "Ether" of this ecosystem. [$ETH
It can be used to pay fees, transfer money, and purchase in-game items, much like points in a shopping mall.]
NOT, on the other hand, is more like a "special token" derived from the popular mini-game Notcoin. Originally launched on Telegram, this game allowed players to mine coins simply by tapping the screen. Players accumulated coins as they played, and eventually, they became a truly tradable token. Now, NOT is more than just game points; it's become a vital asset within the TON ecosystem, capable of being traded, invested, and even used to participate in a wider range of Web3 games and applications.
Simply put, TON is the currency of the main city, while NOT is the unique token that emerged from the castle and gradually grew. Together, they make "earning while playing" a more accessible lifestyle.
