🧭 From the context of TON×Telegram, Notcoin, Hamster Kombat, Yescoin, PixelTap (Pixelverse), Catizen, etc., all belong to 'light interaction traffic generation - on-chain settlement' products in the same track; however, Notcoin was the first to make 'entry' a 'flagship asset'. Publicly disclosed metrics show that $NOT is regarded as the flagship of TON in terms of influence and community holdings; cumulative rewards distributed after activities exceed 220 million USD, with about 2.8 million holders, around 61% of the supply on-chain, DEX volume exceeding 1 billion USD, and achieving multi-platform listings with 96% of generation allocation directed towards the community. These quantitative indicators give Notcoin the dual attributes of 'entry + asset'.
🔍 Compared to Hamster Kombat, both have strong Telegram traffic generation capabilities; the difference lies in Notcoin's earlier conversion of 'accumulated attention' into tradable on-chain assets and cross-exchange liquidity, allowing newcomers to quickly connect to CEX/DEX settlement and price signals after completing in-game actions. Hamster's tokenization and on-chain timeline still have [to be verified] aspects, therefore needing observation in terms of 'settability'.
🧭 The distinction from Yescoin lies more in the 'standardization degree' of tasks and distribution. Notcoin uses Explore/task activities to form a template for directing cooperative projects; Yescoin leans more towards lightweight growth experiments. If measured by long-term retention and level of settlement, Notcoin's multi-end liquidity and on-chain proportion give it deeper 'asset attributes'.
🧩 PixelTap (Pixelverse) and Catizen delve into 'gamified content', while Notcoin focuses on 'entry and distribution'. The former enhances content immersion, while the latter strengthens economic settlement; of course, most products will eventually converge towards each other. The difference lies only in the rhythm: Notcoin first completes the listing and distribution of consensus assets, while other products first focus on vertical content and community culture. To determine which is superior, ongoing verification based on on-chain activity and liquidity health is necessary.
🛰️ A more fundamental distinction lies in 'whether data and accounting are aligned'. Notcoin links interaction indicators from the Telegram side with address graphs on the TON chain, allowing 'tasks, distribution, on-chain' to form a single set of auditable data; this is crucial for governance and compliance. When you can use publicly available on-chain holder counts, on-chain proportions, and structured DEX data to compare 'activity effectiveness', false growth is hard to hide beneath the surface.
🧾 The conclusion is not about who is 'better', but rather the division of labor on the track. Notcoin's pioneering integration of 'entry + settlement' has made it a textbook for new users and a traffic distributor for the TON ecosystem; other products provide complementary aspects in terms of content, gameplay, or specific circles. As creators and researchers, the wisest approach is not to take sides, but to place each party's 'verifiable indicators' on the same dashboard and let the data speak for itself. — This article does not constitute investment advice
