One of the most valuable (and overlooked) aspects of web3 is sheer recruiting power.
There is more to “tapping” than meets the eye. We’re not just inviting you to tap your way into tokenized treasure– We’re tapping into an entire population of people who have not yet realized the simple value of web3, and the potential is huge.
Another tapping game, Hamster Kombat, has recently risen out of nowhere to become the most popular Telegram mini-app in the idle game genre. According to Telegram Founder Pavel Durov…
It took Hamster Kombat only 73 days to reach 100 million monthly users.
“[Hamster Kombat’s] growth shows the viral potential of the Telegram mini app platform.”
“A new era is arriving, and we are witnessing its arrival in real time.”
The Hamster Kombat Youtube channel has applied for a Guinness World Record as the first Youtube channel to ever gain 10 million subs within one week.
Telegram has long been embraced as a communication platform for web3 users around the world. Through the release of its new web3-enabled mini app platform, the messaging app cemented its position as a key player in the global mass adoption of cryptocurrency and blockchain technology.
The creation of this robust mini app platform was the fruit of a partnership between Telegram, The Open Network (TON blockchain) Foundation and Tencent, the parent company of messaging and calling app WeChat. By integrating a TON-based wallet and the ability for developers to integrate web3 functions into mini-apps, Telegram has seemingly created the most effective tool for mass web3 onboarding that the world has yet seen.
At Gala, we’re excited to join in the fun and do our part to open more eyes to the empowerment of web3. This is why we’ve created and unveiled Treasure Tapper over the past few weeks, which stands to bring more new users into the GalaChain ecosystem than ever before.
Let’s explore the idea that while this may not have been the type of mass adoption we expected, it’s the one that was bound to happen.
Trends Into Onramps
When you look back at the recent history of blockchain tech, you’ll see a series of trends that got people talking.
From the early days of play-to-earn gaming and overhyped PFP NFTs to the gamification of fintech with yield farming. From the more recent meme-coin craze to today’s mini app clicker game revolution powered by Telegram and TON, these frenzied trends share one important quality: They made the idea of web3 rewards easy to understand.
As a pioneering web3 company here for the long haul, we’re interested in winning users from web2 to a profound realization of what web3 can do to empower and enrich their day-to-day lives. But there are plenty of challenges inherent in getting “normies” to understand these benefits…
Web3 Jargon is Confusing
Technology innovators love their big words and lofty ideas. But for every “interoperability,” “decentralization,” “metaverse” and “paradigm shift,” there has always been a “win free tokens,” “earn crypto” or “claim rewards” to take the cake. The biggest winners in the space have been the ones who figured out a way to keep it simple.
Bottom Line Trumps Back End
The multitude of users we’re looking to empower don’t need to understand how any of it works. Instead, they need a real demonstration of its benefits in action, directly empowering them. Basically, they don’t care about what makes a blockchain a blockchain, and they’re not looking for a history lesson.
To attract a new user to the web3 world, we have to think like the new user. We aren’t all tech pioneers, after all. Some of us are elementary school teachers, delivery drivers, plumbers, accountants, etc. The vast majority of potential users need to be shown that the benefits of buying into this new technology outweigh its inconveniences.
Where to Begin?
The average web2 user is getting mixed messages from a whole lot of companies, each claiming that their company is the place to begin the journey. But could we all have taken a more simple and unified approach?
By embracing something as simple as a clicker game powered by an open source Telegram bot, it’s starting to look like the wider web3 world has found the key to a unified onboarding approach that will prove effective, finally bringing people en masse from web2 to web3.
Getting Attention, Changing Lives
There is something special about the idea of converting your time and energy directly into tokens that are actually yours. In comparison to all the video games we have ever known, this mechanic is a breath of fresh air, promising a new level of freedom to the gamer.
Time/Attention 👉 Tokenized “Treasure”
This conversion is perfectly representative of what web3 can do for its masses of future users. A quick examination of web2’s “social internet” will make the problems clear: Social media companies have essentially turned users into products, monetizing your attention at every turn but never sharing that money with you.
The fact is that your time and attention have value, and no matter how much the largest web2 corporations in the world want to keep it hidden from you, that tea cannot be unspilled.
As more attention is drawn to the web3 world and its benefits for everyday users, the web3 revolution becomes stronger as a whole.
The (oversimplified) Steps to Mass Adoption
Get their attention.
Help them understand that their attention has value.
Reward them.
More than Cute and Fun
Our adorable game of Tapping for Treasure is more than a fun way to use your fingers and phones. It represents an effective solution to the web3 onboarding puzzle with all its confusion and competition.
When we mint reward tokens and they become tradable, millions of users could suddenly be rewarded for their time and attention in the form of crypto tokens.

“I love this game! I keep playing it even though I have won all the levels. It’s just fun. Some levels can be challenging and take quite a few trys, but they are all winnable without having to buy anything. You also get lots of bonus play (endless lives, bombs,ect) that enhances the game. Thank you for continuing to make new levels, it’s a nice surprise to have 20-30 new levels when I go to play.”
“Very fun game, and the cute kitties are definitely a big plus! Game is challenging without being too difficult, and if you do need extra moves, you have the option of watching an ad instead of using coins you’ve earned. If you’re a girl like me who loves cute cats and match-3 games, this game is for you!”
“The kittens in this game are too cute. You can dress, feed and pamper them. And if you make and keep them happy kittens, you will be rewarded. The graphics are great. And the tasks can be a bit challenging the higher up in the levels you advance. It’s also connected with Google Play, just make sure it’s set to sync so if you uninstall the app or lose your phone/tablet, you won’t have to start over. I think I have found another fav way to pass the time on my breaks. It’s simply purrfect😋.”
“I’ve had so much fun playing this game! Super cute theme and cats!”
“I’ve spent $0 on this game, I’m so proud of my progress in this game. I’m #2 on the Diamond League. I’m too addicted. I think about it all the time, I play it at my work, I play it when I’m with my friends — I even turned down hanging out with my friends to play this game.”
…There are plenty more where those came from 😸
