- The project has already conducted two stages of airdrops, allocating 30% of TOMA’s 1 trillion supply for distribution to active participants. There will be one more airdrop ahead of the launch, which participants can qualify for by completing a set of easy tasks, like adding a tomato emoji to their username and following the social media accounts of Tomarket.
- A core team member of Tomarket said in an interview that they selected the Aptos blockchain for its high-speed and reliable infrastructure that provides the scalability that TOMA needs to support its growing GameFi ecosystem.
- Tomarket plans to launch more games, enhance its farming pool rewards program, and launch a DEX aggregator in the near future. Crypto exchange Gate.io will be among the first to list the $TOMA token for trade.
Viral Telegram crypto game Tomarket has announced that it will be issuing its native $TOMA cryptocurrency on the Aptos (APT) blockchain instead of its original plan to launch the asset on The Open Network (TON).
The project’s developers have revealed that TOMA will be launched on December 20, with a massive token distribution event planned for the most eligible players out of its 50 million user base and 6 million daily active users.
Tomarket Game To Launch $TOMA Token On Aptos Blockchain On December 20
While speaking to crypto media outlet Decrypt, a Tomarket core team member said that Aptos’ high-speed and reliable infrastructure provides the scalability the project needs to support its growing user base while delivering a smooth and efficient blockchain experience.
Following next week’s launch, Tomarket plans to expand its ecosystem offerings by introducing more game titles, enhancing its Farming Pool regards program, and launching an aggregator for decentralized exchanges (DEXs).
While most Telegram-based crypto games, including prominent ones like Musk X Empire, Hamster Kombat, and Notcoin, choose to release their tokens on the TON network, they failed to capture the market’s attention. Despite launching on major exchanges, the prices of HMSTR and X Empire continue to struggle.
However, the game’s launch on the blockchain has helped drive the adoption of TON this year, which is now ranked among the top 20 cryptocurrencies by market capitalization, with its price rising by about 190% over the past year.
1 Trillion $TOMA To Be Airdropped To Eligible Recipients
Tomarket has allocated 80% of its total supply (1 trillion) to be distributed to users via an airdrop, which is taking place in four stages. The first stage saw 30% of the supply distributed to participants, and the second stage is set to take place before TOMA is listed on exchanges.
During the first stage, recipients could not withdraw or trade their TOMA. At the time, the team clarified that although the tokens were issued, they were just allocations within the app. The next stage will see around 17% of the supply distributed among eligible users. Early adopters of the project will receive another 3% of the token supply in the later stage of distribution.
The team has introduced a set of fun eligibility tasks for players to get the chance to earn free TOMA tokens. These include adding a tomato emoji to the players’ Telegram username, playing the Tomarket game and reaching the Silver Level, connecting their account to the Bitget wallet, and following the official Tomarket channel on Telegram. The game is also offering an additional perk that will unlock 100% of their token allocation during the airdrop. This involves players spending $5 to purchase the Premium Medal.
Tomarket players who complete these tasks before December 20 will be automatically eligible for the TOMA airdrop. Players can also withdraw their TOMA coins through the Tomarket mini-app on Telegram. Those with the Premium Medal will receive the full allocation at the launch itself, while others will only receive a portion of the token at launch, with the rest locked for a vesting period.
$TOMA Will Listed On Bitget After December 20, 2024
Tomarket isn’t the first TON-based game to release its token on a different blockchain. Tap-to-earn game MemeFi recently launched its token on the Sui blockchain, pivoting from the original chain of Ethereum Layer-2 network Linea.
Leading centralized crypto exchange Gate.io has announced that it will list TOMA on its platform following the token’s release next week, building enthusiasm for its launch. The team has planned a snapshot reveal two days ahead of the listing, letting players know of their eligibility.
