Pixelverse Launches TON Token as Telegram-Based Game PixelTap Player Base Grows

Cyberpunk-themed crypto gaming ecosystem Pixelverse is launching a token on The Open Network (TON) as its Telegram-based game PixelTap player base grows.

Cyberpunk-themed crypto gaming ecosystem Pixelverse is integrating with The Open Network (TON) as its Telegram-based game PixelTap continues to grow its player base.

PixelTap is a clicker-meets-combat game that sees you earning in-game coins to upgrade the robots you take into battle. During combat, you will frantically tap sections of the screen to attack your opponent’s bot, while also building up special attacks and attempting to defend yourself.

However, Pixelverse is not limited to its Telegram game, as it also boasts a web browser-based quest battler set within the same universe. This game, simply titled Pixelverse, is currently stated to be in an “early preview” phase as it builds up to an alpha release.

According to Pixelverse, its games have collectively managed to amass a total of 35 million players thus far, with the majority of these players likely to be playing PixelTap as the broader Telegram gaming space continues to surge.

The Pixelverse token will trade under the ticker PIXFI, boasting a total supply of 5 billion and serving a crucial role within the ecosystem. According to official documentation, PIXFI will be used for trading, crafting, and battling in Pixelverse.

The Telegram-linked network TON is playing host to some of the largest web3 gaming projects that utilize the application. Notcoin, Hamster Kombat, and Catizen are all building on the network, with Notcoin having successfully launched NOT in May as the biggest gaming token of 2024.

“TON and Telegram are paving the way for mass crypto adoption, and we are excited to be part of this journey,” Pixelverse said in response to the announcement post.
