A popular tap-2-earn app, Tapswap, powered by TON Blockchain, has suspended the token allocation to users indefinitely.
According to the Blockchain, representatives were said to be seeking the most suitable ways to reward the tap-to-earn gamers.
This was disclosed by a Head of Communications, Tapswap, John Robbin, on an X platform on Thursday.
The app, which required users to repeatedly tap the icon in the centre of the Telegram Tapswap bot screen to mine coins, recently gained momentum among Nigerians tapping on their phone screens in pursuit of financial earnings and has amassed over 50 million users since it launched on February 15, 2024.
According to him, the method of token allocation has not yet been ascertained, stressing that the processes cannot be communicated before the allocation.
He wrote, “The token launch was postponed until July 1. The new date will be communicated.
“We will allocate a significant part of the tokens to the community to retain the tappers. We want you all to be part of the tapswap community.
“We need a token airdrop to be a win-win for all of us. We have started communicating with many exchanges and platforms."
The app’s communication head also noted that those using the mechanism to farm taps and abuse the game would be banned by running checks from the community members while seeking genuine tappers’ patience.
