X Empire, a tap-to-earn game themed around Elon Musk, has gained over 50 million players in recent months and is preparing for a significant milestone. The game announced that its native X token will officially launch on The Open Network (TON) on October 24, with an airdrop scheduled for the same day.
Originally called Musk Empire, the game tasked players with tapping their screens to earn coins, which they could use to upgrade an Elon Musk-like character. As the game evolved, it rebranded to X Empire, introducing avatars based on other prominent figures from the crypto world, such as Telegram CEO Pavel Durov and Ethereum founder Vitalik Buterin.
Key Airdrop Details:
Date: October 24, 2024
Token Supply: 690 billion X tokens total.
75% (517.5 billion) of the token supply will be distributed to players between two phases:
Mining Phase: Ended on September 30.
Chill Phase: Following an unexpected delay, the "chill phase" began to keep players engaged. Player progress was reset to zero, but an additional 5% of tokens were allocated as rewards for participation during this phase.
The remaining tokens will be reserved for future users and game phases beyond the airdrop.
This airdrop follows the popular Hamster Kombat drop on September 26. It further underscores the growing trend of crypto-based gaming on the TON network, which recently surpassed 100 million unique wallets, a significant increase from 4 million at the start of 2024.
