Memhash, the popular gaming mini-app, has become one of the first projects to adopt Tonkeeper’s new TONAPI Airdrop feature. This will allow Memhash to streamline token distribution on The Open Network (TON) using a tool designed by the Tonkeeper team to issue Jettons – TON’s native token standard. It’s evidence that TONAPI Airdrop is starting to gain traction, with Memhash leading the charge and putting the tech to the test.
A New Era for Token Airdrops
The TONAPI Airdrop feature, embedded within TONAPI’s software-as-a-service platform, enables projects to conduct large-scale token distribution with minimal overhead. Unlike conventional airdrops requiring costly minting or intermediaries, this system supports up to 10 million claims for a nominal TON fee, providing the desired ingredients of scalability and efficiency in equal measure.
Explaining the rationale behind his team’s decision to use the new Tonkeeper-developed feature, Memhash CEO Nikolai said: “Adopting the Jetton Airdrop feature aligns with our vision for a seamless, user-driven in-game economy. Eliminating manual distribution hurdles will make it easier than ever for players to engage with Memhash and claim their token rewards.”
For Memhash, this translates to a frictionless reward system within its gamified mining app. Players can claim tokens directly, enhancing engagement without technical barriers. Not only does this make life easier for dapps, but it reduces the time to token issuance, since projects can launch a native token at an earlier stage without being saddled by the cost.
Token Issuance Made for TON
TON’s unique architecture can theoretically process over 1 million transactions per second (TPS), even if in real terms the highest it’s hit in testing is closer to 100K – that’s still multiples faster than the likes of Ethereum with its 30 TPS. All of which is to say that TON is an apt backbone for such initiatives.
The combination of native integration into the Telegram messenger app and ultra-low fees have made TON a favorite network for retail users – and for projects creating dapps spanning gaming, DeFi, and SocialFi. Should these dapps gain traction and begin growing a community, they’ll naturally begin thinking about launching a native token, which is where Tonkeeper’s latest feature proves its worth.
Memhash Makes Its Mark on TON
Memhash gamifies cryptocurrency mining by harnessing device computing power, akin to Bitcoin’s Proof-of-Work model. Integrated into Telegram’s 950 million-user ecosystem, it has quickly risen among mini-apps, drawing comparisons to Notcoin, which attracted 35 million users at its peak. Its adoption of TONAPI Airdrop reinforces its token economy, distributing rewards after its TGE which is expected to be hosted soon.
While Memhash has been making its mark on Telegram gaming, Tonkeeper has been making an impact on the entire TON network. It’s long been the leading non-custodial wallet for TON following its 2021 debut, powering over 80% of TON ecosystem projects via TONAPI. Innovations like Tonkeeper Battery and TON Connect, linking to thousands of web3 apps, have reinforced its dominance.
The TONAPI Airdrop feature builds on this, supporting up to 10 million claims with a user-friendly interface. This scalability suits TON’s high TPS and low fees, averaging $0.01 versus Ethereum’s $2, and positioning it against rivals like Solana with its 1,500 TPS. Memhash’s early move with TONAPI Airdrop positions it as a pioneer, harnessing TON’s scale and Telegram’s reach to streamline web3 user acquisition and grow engagement.
