Someone who has been around for some time should know about Arbitrum airdrop that happened some time ago. Airdrops usually used to be different, you would need to do some social tasks such as following social media handles and doing some retweets to become eligible, but Arbitrum did the first airdrop based on early-user participation method where those who used their testnet/mainnet or dapps to make transactions would be eligible for an airdrop, and the airdrop was a huge success, people got so much money for their participation.

What happened after that? Every protocol project started doing the same thing because they needed promotion, and people were doing everything to become eligible for those airdrops because of how much money people made in Arbitrum's airdrop.

The same thing is happening with these tap-to-earn bots in Telegram. Notcoin was the first one and it was a huge success because all participants got great profit from it, and then all projects started doing the same, and we have hundreds of bots at the moment. How many of these bots will actually give something to their participants? No one knows, but just because the very first project did give something to its community, people are hopeful.

A great analogy, and in both cases, nobody can say for sure whether the efforts and money put in would be worth it. Hope is the main thing going on here, whether we like it or not. Hope pushes people to tap, in this situation Grin

Good strategy, it turns out that all of that has a purpose for fundraising with a scheme that requires finding or inviting new users to join and assigning us to watch their YouTube videos in exchange for coins or tokens. This strategy is often found in airdrop or game projects on Telegram. I just realized its cunningness

After they have millions of people community, they also let people to watch YouTube videos which they are making money from. Also encouraging people to buy pay them money. This is no more airdrop project but ways to earn money from people. Do not pay any money to buy any worthless thing from them. They keep postponing the launching date.

I'm one of the early tappers. I stopped tapping because of the monetized ads; they are following the leads of the PI network, which abused their members by monetizing their platforms. Its not only TapSwan; there are other tapping mining that's been doing the same.
I think that is not right, it's taking advantage of users, no wonder we have a lot of scam-tapping miners because that's the easiest way to increase their followers and make money, once they make enough money from their cash cow, they will take down the platform and we do not who we are going to get after because we do not who are the people behind these projects.

Pi network was very popular in my country a few years ago. Now the hype has died down, I don’t hear anyone talking about it anymore. You would think people would learn from their experience with Pi network and other projects that have failed but no. They simply move on to the next hype and hope to earn loads of money when the coin is officially listed in reputable exchanges.

Tapswap, Hamster Kombat are no different from your typical scams. Their community members choose to ignore the red flags. They probably believe that they have nothing to lose since all they have to do is tap their screens and do a few social media tasks. But the reality is that these projects are using their large audience for promotion gigs and others. They have no real plan for the project.

It was after people made a lot of money in notcoin that I think this was introduced or maybe it had been there but came known to many people after the success of notcoin. A lot of people rushed into it hoping that they’ll make a lot of money from it but failed them after so many postponement of launching date. They didn’t start that YouTube video not until others did and they saw how they are making money from it before they also started. They are always looking for strategy to milk their users. I am not thinking this is going to launch anytime soon and if they do, they might not be worth anything after listing. It’s better to stay off anything associated with them that requires paying money for it.
People likes to follow trends and when they hear that there's a place where there is free money they'll all flock their without carrying out research. The success of NOTCOIN opened the door for many people to come into cryptocurrency, believing that any project that operates like Notcoin will reward them with airdrops. After the launch of NOTCOIN I was surprised at the level of people's commitments to tapping on these follow up projects and I knew that scammers will take advantage of the situation to scam many people.

I wouldn't be surprised if they keep postponing the launch because as it is they're making money off their victims. NOTCOIN has made many people to be ignorant of the many scams that are in the crypto space and I guess that many newbies will learn from their mistakes.

It became popular anywhere since lots of people hoping to get a lot of money from that coin. Especially that there are teasers regarding on the price also for what they say pi mall which many people look forward since they think they are close to get wealthy if this coin will be listed on exchange. But guess all the hopes of those people who believes falls down as the Pi project or team behind it didn't deliver what they promise to people who follows them.

Tapswaps is not really different since again they create another questionable things which people also expect to much from this project. Maybe people should stop about thinking about money since this one lead to pure disappointments especially if they cannot get something from the project where their expectation to gain is so high.

 When things happen like they give the link to the players to watch their videos and they get the benefits it seems like this is one of their plans, honestly we doubt the events in the last few months especially about tapswap which will give airdrop to its players, but when it comes to buying and paying them with money, we think this can be called an airdrop.


This is no more airdrop project but ways to earn money from people.Do not pay any money to buy any worthless thing from them. They keep postponing the launching date.

 From the way they work, it seems like this could be one of their alternative ways to make a lot of money by manipulating the players who have joined, they keep shifting the launch date which in reality is them continuously playing with the program and the players who have been trapped in it.

I believe Tapswap, Hamster Kombat, and Pi found more audience in third world countries than in the rest of the world. They are easy targets because people who are living below the poverty level are not going to research the legitimacy of the project. Their major and only concerns would be if the project is profitable and once they are convinced that they can make money from it (usually word-of-mouth recommendations), everything else doesn’t matter. Nobody wants to miss out on an opportunity to make money even if it means following the herd and doing something you do not understand.

still now sure it's scam or not, but their recent activities looks very suspicious, actually not only taptap swap, others dozens of tap tap project just boosting their community but they did not paid rewards, i never deposit in their projects, from last few months telegram bot airdrop is trendy, but users getting rewards? millions of users playing those games.

Already I know this tapswap of a thing could lead to serious lost because people aren't careful with it, scammers are exploring many ways to scam people because they knows no one would want to be left out because when it get to them they would make huge profit so they want to be involved with all means without knowing it's actually scam. For example, the area of sending fee to get whatever because I don't think a good project request for fee outside take from what ever they had already given the user.

At the beginning, tapswap was a platform that promised profits by doing simple tasks, it seemed similar to NOTcoin, currently it is difficult to determine whether tapswap is a scam or not because its users have reached tens of millions, so they have attracted a lot of attention, as in other crypto projects, credibility is one of the good keys, with a clear and informative project but the importance of doing your own research, it seems like the best way. because the official value of tapswap will only be determined by their system's tokenomics team.

The popularity of a crypto project is not a determining factor in evaluating a legit or scam project. FTX was a famous exchange known all around the world and still they were found guilty of several crimes.

You cannot make money by tapping on your phone. Who would pay for that? Knowing that users can automate it on iPhones and get multiple tops all at once. The project developers know this even if most don’t, they are not worried about your “taps”, if you can get participants to subscribe to their YouTube channel and watch their videos, they can monetize their platform and start making money from ads and sponsorships.

It's the classic new project following the path of its sucessful predecessor, in the case of tapswap project, most of them are blatantly farming their communities, since the communities themselves aren't really seasoned airdrop hunter, they just keep going and getting farmed left and right, most of the tapswap project now also requiers to buy some item or watch ads to farm.

kinda obvious what path these project are taking, which is farming the farmer, exactly what most of airdrops are doing nowadays, the community themselves are the product and yet they didn't even know about it.
moreover, the fact that the participants were so many amounting to hundred millions, means it gonna benefit the devs meanwhile the reward for the participants become lesser since it's pooled rewards.

Tapswap scam or scam? This game basically like the other tap tap game it blow off when notcoin the original of tap game in the telegram showed up back couple month ago and from there out of nowhere binnace listing the token and the price become a good one and so many people start get the jackpot from there.

You know crypto right when there is something blow off the other developed would follow the example in the past is like the DeFi apps Decentralized Exchange, NFT, Metaverse and play to earn etc. Tapswap is one of the many game that has same character like Notcoin and now is "evolving" so player can basically pay some money to boost the game and hope to get money in the future
