Notcoin
35,000,000
players tapped their way to real money
Notcoin was the first Telegram game that actually paid. 35 million people tapped a coin for four months. In May 2024, those taps became $NOT tokens — and $1 billion changed hands on day one.
The Story
January 2024. A Telegram bot went live with one mechanic: tap a coin.
35 million people tapped it for four months straight.
In May 2024, those taps converted to $NOT tokens on Binance.
$1 billion changed hands in 24 hours.
Notcoin proved Telegram games could pay real money.
Every game since — Hamster Kombat, Blum, all of them — started here.

What made Notcoin different from every game that followed
Before Notcoin, no Telegram game had successfully listed a token. The whole space was speculation. Notcoin changed that. Open Builders launched the bot in January 2024 with the simplest possible mechanic — tap a coin. No complex gameplay, no confusing tokenomics, just tap. 4.1 million people joined in the first week. By April, 35 million had played. In May 2024, Binance listed $NOT and distributed over 80 billion tokens to players. The trust established by Notcoin's clean execution is why hundreds of millions of people trusted Hamster Kombat, Blum, and everything else.
Notcoin vouchers and Telegram Stars: the connection
Notcoin vouchers are NFTs representing locked $NOT tokens — they were issued to early players and still trade on Fragment marketplace. Fragment is also Telegram's official platform for converting Stars to TON. This creates a direct loop: sell $NOT on Bybit for USDT → buy TON → go to Fragment → buy Telegram Stars. The Stars are then usable across all Telegram bots and mini apps that accept them. It takes under 10 minutes and requires no technical knowledge.
Is $NOT still worth buying in 2026?
$NOT trades on Binance (NOT/USDT), OKX, and Bybit. The token peaked at around $0.028 during its first week and has traded at lower levels since. Whether it's worth buying depends on what you think Telegram's gaming ecosystem will do. As the OG token in the space, $NOT has brand recognition that newer tokens don't — but it also no longer has an active user base generating demand. It's speculative. Check current liquidity and volume before making a decision.
