Today we will look at what tapalki are and who makes money on them.
Initially, the concept of tapalok appeared together with the TON cryptocurrency. The first of them – the NOT tapalok – attracted fewer players than subsequent projects, which allowed early users to make a small profit. However, as the popularity grew, new projects appeared, and today almost anyone can launch their own tapalok.
Who and how creates slippers?
Most tapaloks are created in the CIS countries, and often their developers are associated with the Telegram and TON team, top crypto bloggers of the CIS, which simplifies cooperation with the TON eco-system. In addition, advertising in the CIS is relatively inexpensive, and there are many people among the audience who are looking to make easy money. When the project gains momentum, it begins to be promoted to the markets of the Middle East and Africa, where there is also a high demand for such schemes. The process usually involves the release of tokens with a huge emission and their listing on exchanges, which is supported by a massive player base.
Who makes money on slippers and how?
1. Developers. They are the ones who make the most profit. They create large communities on social networks, where high coverage is generated thanks to the activity of players (views, likes, reposts). Some projects require symbolic contributions - for example, to confirm a wallet or buy virtual items in the game. Considering that the audience of each tapalka can reach 30-50 million people, the scale of income is obvious. Also, developers often “pump” players from one game to another, naturally not for free.
2. Influencers and bloggers. These crypto market participants earn money by bringing their subscribers to the game. The more people they attract, the greater the reward in the form of tokens or other goodies. This scheme is used in all popular tapalki, we can see it clearly.
Conclusion: For ordinary users like you and me, tapalki are rarely profitable. Potential income for half a year of playing is unlikely to exceed $50-100, which is hardly worth the time spent. It is much more useful to direct your efforts to developing skills and learning new areas that can bring real benefits in the future.
