When the first app called NotCoin came out with concept of “Tap to Earn”, majority of the crypto folks including most of the big influencers ignored it many called out that there was no way it could sustain as with such a basic gameplay it was sure to be over-farmed.

The app was built into Telegram and once you open it you would see a large coin and the more you tap on it the more your score grows. You can level up so each tap gets you more points. You can join groups and invite people and the more your group taps the better will be your airdrop eligibility. The group does not formally mention any airdrop, in fact they do the reverse. They call their coin “Not Coin”, saying it is not exactly a coin s don’t expect anything from it. They smartly make I the reverse of TON as well being part of that family, smart wordplay in my opinion.

My first instinct was to avoid NotCoin as seemed pointless but then I remembered that I had the same reaction when I first heard about NFTs and Memecoins so I decided that nothing can be too stupid to become the next trend in crypto so I decided to give a shot.

It turned out to be one of the best airdrops of this year as without investing anything and by just opening the app once a couple of days you could get anywhere between $100 to $1,000 depending on how regular you were and if you had grown…
