A crypto expert and content creator, Uche Ikechukwu, has spoken on the new trend called ‘tapping’ and what Nigerians stand to gain from it in this interview with Weekend Trust.

加密貨幣專家兼內容創作者 Uche Ikechukwu 在接受 Weekend Trust 採訪時談到了名為「竊聽」的新趨勢以及尼日利亞人將從中獲得的好處。

Ikechukwu, who has been in the crypto space for over five years, explained that tapping started with Notcoin, which was a telegram mini app where people signed up on the platform.

Ikechukwu 已經在加密領域工作了五年多，他解釋說，竊聽是從 Notcoin 開始的，這是一個電報迷你應用程序，人們可以在該平台上註冊。

He said, “Since it was the first of its kind, nobody knew what was going to be the outcome, if it was going to do well or badly. There were no promises, but after a couple of months of tapping, they decided to give tokens to people that actually tapped and that was when a lot of persons made money from Notcoin.

他說：「由於這是第一次，所以沒有人知道會產生什麼結果，是好是壞。沒有任何承諾，但經過幾個月的挖掘後，他們決定向實際挖掘的人提供代幣，那時很多人從 Notcoin 中賺錢。

“Personally, I made about a thousand dollars from it and didn’t even stress. I didn’t even put in much work because if I had done, maybe I would have made like 5,000 dollars. Others made 20 dollars, some 50. That was for the 30 million subscribers they had.

「就我個人而言，我從中賺了大約一千美元，甚至沒有壓力。我甚至沒有投入太多工作，因為如果我投入了，也許我就能賺到 5,000 美元。其他人賺了 20 美元，有的賺了 50 美元。

“Because of that trend, other projects adopted that telegram mini app because usually, it is very difficult to get 30 million users in crypto, except for some exchanges like Binance that has that volume of users.

「由於這種趨勢，其他項目也採用了 Telegram 迷你應用程序，因為通常情況下，很難獲得 3000 萬的加密用戶，除了一些像幣安這樣擁有如此數量用戶的交易所。

“But for a gaming platform to have so many followers, we had not seen such before. In six months, they (Notcoin) were able to get 30 million users.

「但是對於一個遊戲平台來說，擁有如此多的粉絲，我們以前從未見過。在六個月內，他們（Notcoin）就獲得了 3,000 萬用戶。

“This made founders adopt this kind of method to launch their own telegram mini app, then we had ‘Tapswap’, ‘Hamster Combat’ and several others.

「這使得創辦人採用這種方法推出了自己的 telegram 小型應用程序，然後我們有了『Tapswap』、『Hamster Combat』等等。

“Tapswap was quite popular, but after some time, Hamstar Kombat overtook it to become more popular. I actually think that Hamster Kombat rode on the impression that people heard of Notcoin, and that is why they got more users.

「Tapswap 非常受歡迎，但一段時間後，Hamstar Kombat 超過了它，變得更受歡迎。事實上，我認為《Hamster Kombat》給人的印像是人們聽說過 Notcoin，這就是他們獲得更多用戶的原因。

“Hamstar Kombat, at the end of the day, had about 300 million users – people that were tapping on their platform. Because of that, people had a lot of expectations from the experience with Notcoin.

「Hamstar Kombat 最終擁有約 3 億用戶，即使用其平台的用戶。正因如此，人們對 Notcoin 的體驗抱持著很大的期望。

“But you know, because of the large number of users, I had predicted that the coin was not going to do well. I said this because: let’s assume that they decide to give one dollar to each user, that’s almost $300 million; where are they going to get that money to give people.

「但你知道，由於用戶數量眾多，我曾預測該幣不會表現良好。我這麼說是因為：假設他們決定給每個用戶一美元，那幾乎是 3 億美元；他們從哪裡得到這些錢來幫助人們。

“Notcoin was able to do that because they had only 30 million users and not everyone made that much; just a few of us made up to $1,000.

「Notcoin 之所以能夠做到這一點，是因為他們只有 3,000 萬用戶，而且並不是每個人都能賺到那麼多；我們幾個人就賺了1000美元。

“Moreover, Notcoin had the backing of some of the biggest platforms; and I probably know that they had the money on their own for them to record that kind of feat.

「此外，Notcoin 得到了一些最大平台的支援；我可能知道他們自己有錢來記錄這種壯舉。

“After that, we also had the DOGS airdrop, and within two months after it came, it was able to give out airdrops, where I made about $480.

「之後我們還有DOGS空投，來了兩個月後，就能夠發出空投了，我賺了大約480美元。

“Before the DOGS airdrop, there was one called Pixel. But since they didn’t give airdrops, people got discouraged and didn’t join the DOGS, which turned out to do well because they had fewer users.

「在 DOGS 空投之前，有一個叫做 Pixel 的專案。但由於他們不提供空投，人們灰心喪氣，沒有加入 DOGS，結果證明 DOGS 做得很好，因為他們的用戶較少。

“So because the last one did well, people mounted pressure on the next one, which was Hamster Combat, which was yet to launch its token at the time, and then, when they finally launched their token last week, a lot of persons were disappointed.”

「因此，由於上一款表現出色，人們對下一款遊戲施加了壓力，下一款遊戲是Hamster Combat，當時該遊戲尚未推出其代幣，然後，當他們上週終於推出代幣時，很多人都被失望的。

He said that if not for the large number of subscribers, it would have worked, adding, “They said they gave the airdrop to 150 million people or so. I also think that because they did not allocate a lot of their tokens, they only gave about 67 per cent of their tokens to those who were tapping.

他說，如果沒有大量的訂閱者，它會起作用，並補充說，「他們說他們向大約 1.5 億人提供了空投。我還認為，因為他們沒有分配大量代幣，所以他們只將大約 67% 的代幣分配給了那些正在竊聽的人。

“If they had given like 80 per cent of their token, I think they would have done well.”

“如果他們捐出 80% 的代幣，我認為他們會做得很好。”

On whether people are losing or making money considering the resources, time and data that go into this, Ikechukwu said, “Well, it depends because not all of them are actually losing time and data. One thing for me is: Be specific on those ones that will do well. But if you don’t know the one that will do well, then it is going to be a long ride for you because you will be disappointed at the end of the day.”

當考慮到投入的資源、時間和數據，人們是在賠錢還是賺錢時，Ikechukwu 說：「這取決於情況，因為並非所有人實際上都在損失時間和數據。對我來說一件事是：具體關注那些表現良好的人。但如果你不知道哪一個能做得很好，那麼這對你來說將是一段漫長的旅程，因為最終你會感到失望。

He said that this cannot be regarded as a job because one thing with crypto is that trends actually pay off, adding, “So I guess that within the next few months, if we have a lot of them that are not doing well, the trend may die off and nobody will want to tap again. So, I do not see it as a soft job now or in the future.”

他說，這不能被視為一份工作，因為加密貨幣的一件事是趨勢實際上得到了回報，並補充道，「所以我想在接下來的幾個月內，如果我們有很多人表現不佳，趨勢可能會消失，沒有人願意再挖掘。所以，我現在或將來都不認為這是一份軟工作。

Ikechukwu said there are no government regulations, so it is open to everyone that has a telegram account, adding, “You just abide by the telegram rules and you are good to go

Ikechukwu 表示，沒有政府規定，因此它對所有擁有 Telegram 帳戶的人開放，並補充道，“你只需遵守 Telegram 規則，就可以開始使用”
