PAWS is following in the footsteps of other Telegram-integrated mini-apps like Hamster Kombat (HMSTR), DOGS (DOGS), and Catizen (CATI). These games are designed to attract users and reward them for their activity. By using a similar strategy, PAWS has managed to build a broad user base within just a few weeks.

What is PAWS

PAWS is a gaming mini-app on Telegram that allows users to earn in-game PAWS tokens. These tokens can be obtained by completing a set of simple tasks. According to community rumors, PAWS was created by the team behind popular clicker games Notcoin and DOGS, which sparked the hype around Tap-to-Earn games.

The project is built on the TON blockchain and was launched on October 28, 2024. Within two months, the official PAWS bot has grown to over 50 million users. The project's Telegram channel is also rapidly growing, boasting over 19 million subscribers, while its account on X (formerly Twitter) has over 1 million followers.

How PAWS Works

The concept of the game is built around a simple yet original reward distribution model. The PAWS Telegram bot analyzes the following:

Account age;
Telegram Premium subscription status;
Participation in other Telegram crypto games (Hamster Kombat, X Empire, Notcoin, DOGS, BUMS, and others).

Based on this data, the game calculates and automatically credits tokens to users' balances.

How to Earn PAWS Tokens

To start earning PAWS tokens, go to the official bot, click “Let’s start” and wait for the game to check your account and credit your first PAWS tokens.

To earn more tokens, you need to:

Click “Gotcha”;
In the main menu, select “Legend Rank”;
The game will step-by-step analyze your profile for participation in other games and credit additional PAWS tokens.

Next, in the main menu, connect your wallet by clicking the “Your Wallets” button.

While PAWS is an intuitive game that doesn’t require users to stay online regularly, the app allows the community to earn more tokens. The game interface includes a special task section called “Earn,” divided into:

Limited
Time-limited quests or tasks.
In-Game
Tasks related to social activity (subscribing to a channel, adding emojis to a profile, connecting a TON wallet, or boosting the PAWS channel).
Partners
Tasks from partner projects.

PAWS stands out from many Telegram applications by offering the community unique “Mystery Quests,” where players can earn significantly more tokens.

For example, players recently had to click buttons in the main game menu in the correct order to earn 8,000 PAWS.

One of the quests required swiping the screen upwards until the game allowed the “Claim” button to be pressed, awarding PAWS tokens.

Each quest is announced in the official Telegram channel with hints provided. Some quests do not include PAWS rewards, so players need to carefully read the posts and suggestions on social media.

PAWS Referral Program

By inviting friends, PAWS users earn 10% of the tokens received by their referrals.

PAWS Future Plans

Notably, PAWS was initially developed on the TON blockchain, but the project team is reportedly preparing to launch tokens on the Solana blockchain (rumored to be named wPAWS). Observant users noticed Easter eggs in a recent announcement (the Solana logo on a chair and the Phantom Wallet logo on a desktop monitor) placed on an image captioned “To-Do List.”

Other hints spotted in the image include:

PAWS tokens will be listed on OKX, Binance, and ByBit.
Solana Phone owners may receive additional tokens during the airdrop.
A bot cleanup is planned.
Medals assigned to users for in-game activity will play a significant role in PAWS token distribution.

The earning phase for PAWS tokens ends on December 30, and a potential exchange listing is expected in early January.

Currently, PAWS allows users to connect a Solana Phantom Wallet, earning 10,000 PAWS tokens for doing so.

PAWS Player Rankings

The PAWS ranking system, available in the “Leaders” section, creates a competitive environment while maintaining a sense of rivalry. Most likely, a user’s ranking position will influence the number of PAWS tokens they receive during the airdrop.

Planned Listing Date for PAWS

According to official announcements, the final stage of PAWS token farming is set to end on December 30, 2024. The token listing and airdrop are expected in January 2025.

PAWS airdrop

The airdrop is a great opportunity for users to convert their PAWS tokens into cryptocurrencies. After the listing, the team will calculate and distribute all earned tokens among users.

Exchanges Likely to List PAWS

The exact list of exchanges is unknown, but based on hints left by the developers in the Telegram channel, the token is expected to be listed on:

ByBit;
Binance;
OKX;
BitGet.

How to Prepare for the PAWS Listing

To prepare for the PAWS listing, it’s recommended to:

Verify your Telegram Wallet.
Set up a wallet in TON Space.
Download and install TonKeeper.
Register accounts on all major exchanges (ByBit, Binance, OKX, BitGet).

PAWS Token Price

Some analysts predict the token price to range between $0.0072 and $0.0078. However, without detailed tokenomics, it’s impossible to predict the exact price of PAWS.

Conclusion

PAWS is one of the most popular and fastest-growing gaming apps on Telegram, featuring an original model for earning in-game tokens. Given that the PAWS project is linked to the developers of DOGS and Notcoin, players have a strong chance of receiving generous rewards during the token airdrop distribution.
