For years, we've anticipated crypto's leap to mainstream relevance. Yet, Bitcoin's rise to institutional fame hasn't sparked the expected innovation in blockchain use cases outside of its financial impact. Presently, a critical shift in consumer behavior is flying under the radar…on TON. IN THE BEGINNING The early internet, a beacon of content exploration in the digital frontier, started modestly. Initially, it offered a handful of sites with basic designs, but each new discovery felt groundbreaking. These early adventures, organized through navigation portals, paved the way for today’s internet. Now, it's an intuitive yet controlled landscape dominated by a few platforms that aggregate and curate most of the web's user behavior. WALLETS WITHOUT A MAP Despite Web3’s growing integration into the broader internet, major tech players remain on the sidelines of cryptocurrency innovation. High-profile attempts like Facebook’s Libra and Amazon’s NFT marketplace have stumbled. Moreover, the crypto community itself bears some responsibility for not clearly guiding newcomers through its complexities. Essentially, we've handed them wallets without a map, relying on a niche group of enthusiasts for adoption. This approach is not sustainable. The early web thrived on clear guardrails and step-by-step onboarding; similarly, Web3 needs to demystify blockchain technology to prevent alienating new users. Yet, there is no 'Web3 app store' to simplify this exploration. Before Telegram integrated Web3 features, most decentralized applications were tucked away into obscure corners of the internet. Even today, they are primarily uncovered by following insiders on platforms like X.com. A TON OF POTENTIAL However, change is on the horizon. Telegram’s embrace of open-source blockchain finally hints at the mainstream potential of Web3. With its user-friendly design and commitment to developer freedom, Telegram is leading by example, showing how innovation and broad adoption can arise from Web3 principles. Since the start of the year, the most successful mass adoption story, $NOT coin has attracted 35 million users and registers 6.5 million daily actives. $NOT is a fun and addictive clicker game, but also demonstrates the power of integrating Web3 directly into a versatile messaging platform. This isn't just about their impressive growth numbers—equivalent to nearly 0.44% of the world’s population in just three months without any marketing—it's also an educational tool that guides users through onboarding to new opportunities in Web3. As $NOT prepares for the *largest on-chain event* in crypto’s history, we stand on the brink of a new era. This isn't merely one off growth; it's a paradigm shift in how we discover and engage with the digital world. The journey of Web3 on TON is just beginning, and the narrative of $NOT coin is multifaceted, capturing the imagination far beyond any single perspective. Oh, the places they’ll go!

This is how Telegram monetization works from the channel owner perspective. For those of you, who are unaware of it, Telegram is going to share ads revenue from the ads shown in the channels with channels’ owners via $TON. So don’t be surprised with me posting more often because I want to test how much $TON I would be able to get from the ads revenue share. Will keep you posted! #TelegramAds #TON

What was the first token you got? What will be the first token for next 10 millions of users? It’s hard to answer the second question, but I like the updates @notcoin released. #notcoin
