\#Notcoin👀🔥 started as a viral Telegram-based tap-to-earn game launched by Open Builders in late 2023. Players earned in-game coins by tapping a virtual coin, which later converted into \$NOT tokens on The Open Network (TON). The idea combined viral engagement with a crypto twist, quickly amassing millions of users.

\$NOT, the token tied to Notcoin, launched in May 2024 and became tradable on major crypto exchanges. While it began as a playful experiment, \$NOT evolved into a real asset with utility, including staking and ecosystem participation. The Notcoin project reflects a broader trend of gamifying crypto adoption, blending simple gameplay with blockchain rewards, and now aims to expand its utility across Web3 applications within the TON ecosystem.
