Telegram Mini App’s Big Move: Millions Switch to Solana
What’s Changing in the Blockchain World?
Imagine this: A popular mini-app on Telegram, PAWS, is moving millions of its users to a different blockchain called Solana. Why? Because Telegram wants all mini-apps to use its own blockchain, TON. But PAWS wants to stay on multiple blockchains. So, it’s making a big switch! This move is a big deal because it affects not just Solana, but the whole blockchain world.
Why is PAWS Moving?
Telegram wants to make things simpler by having all mini-apps use TON. But some developers prefer having choices, like working on different blockchains. PAWS is one of them. It wants to stay on multiple blockchains, so it’s moving to Solana.
How is Solana Benefiting?
With PAWS moving, more people are joining the Solana world! Over 9 million people have downloaded Phantom wallets, and more than 1 million new Solana addresses have been created. Plus, PAWS’ NFT vouchers are super popular on Magic Eden, a Solana NFT marketplace. There are over 100,000 transactions in just two weeks!
PAWS’ Plan for the Future
PAWS wants to become a big Web3 brand. It’s planning to make money in different ways, like through games and community tools. It wants to keep users engaged and happy, not just focused on quick token gains.
Challenges and Opportunities
Moving to one blockchain can have risks, like if that blockchain has problems. But PAWS is planning to be on multiple blockchains, including Ethereum and others. This way, it can adapt and be more stable.
What Does This Mean for Blockchain Apps?
PAWS moving to Solana shows that apps can choose to be on different blockchains, even if a big platform like Telegram wants them to use just one. This move helps Solana grow and shows other Web3 projects that they can move between blockchains too.
