In 2024, the large-scale adoption of blockchain games received a catalyst: Telegram. With its convenient development environment and vast user base, major public blockchains are scrambling to enter the social platform space. However, the question remains: If this rapid user growth model leads to sustainable growth, or is it merely a fleeting boom?
Key Issues in the TON Ecosystem
The bottleneck of the Tap-to-Earn Model
The Tap-to-Earn model quickly attracted a large number of users through its simple gameplay and clear economic incentives. However, this model is highly dependent on sustained user growth and external funding, both of which cannot last indefinitely. Due to its limited content and gameplay, developers need to continually release new content and features to maintain user interest, which is a huge challenge for development teams.
Notcoin’s anonymous founder, Sasha, openly admitted in an interview with The Block: “I don’t think Notcoin will exist forever. I don’t think it will be sustainable. From my perspective, only games with a sustainable model can survive.”
Bots: Both a Driving Force and a Hindrance
On one hand, bots provide the project with a large number of “users,” creating the illusion of prosperity. On the other hand, these fake accounts dilute the interests of real users, particularly in airdrops and reward distributions, harming the interests of genuine participants and weakening community trust.
These issues not only limit the current ecosystem’s growth potential but also undermine developers’ and users’ confidence in sustainable development.
Crisis often breeds opportunity. Behind these challenges, the TON ecosystem’s massive user base, flexible development environment, and highly active community continue to provide strong support for innovative projects. Hipopo emerged in this context, understanding the existing ecosystem issues deeply, and combining its innovative exploration of entertainment and blockchain technology to forge a new direction in Web3 entertainment.
Hipopo’s approach is not to replicate existing models but to focus more on user value and long-term engagement, ensuring that users receive lasting value while enjoying entertainment.
Content-Driven Retention Mechanism:
Hipopo is a comprehensive ecosystem centered around entertainment interaction, focusing on high-quality content production and diverse entertainment experiences, including games, short dramas, anime, novels, etc. The rich content matrix attracts users to stay engaged, rather than solely relying on economic incentives.
Anti-Bot Mechanism and Real User Protection:
Addressing the widespread bot problem in Web3 projects, Hipopo uses advanced behavioral analysis algorithms and on-chain data verification mechanisms to prioritize real user behavior, ensuring the rights of every participant.
Community Co-Creation Model:
Hipopo encourages users to actively co-create the platform ecosystem through social interaction and entertainment participation, rather than just being passive content consumers.
AI Agents: Deep Emotional and Social Integration
Hipopo upgrades the entertainment experience from a purely functional tool to an emotional and social experience by creating an immersive virtual world—Hipopo Island, an ecosystem that combines entertainment, social interaction, and creativity.
AI Agents: Users can assign unique roles, personalities, professions, etc., to AI Agents, who explore, create, and socialize on the island, driving the dynamic development of the entire Hipopo Island.
Evolving Society: AI Agents will grow, learn, and adapt based on user interaction with the environment, creating a vibrant and story-rich virtual world. This unique experience helps users form an emotional connection with the platform.
In the evolution of the TON ecosystem, Hipopo brings a fresh perspective to the industry. It is not only an entertainment platform but also a crucial practitioner in addressing key issues within the TON ecosystem. By integrating innovative technologies with quality content, Hipopo is redefining the possibilities of Web3 entertainment, creating a more diverse and sustainable future for users, developers, and investors alike.
Breaking free from traditional user growth dependence and establishing a truly sustainable entertainment economy, Hipopo presents an unmissable opportunity for those looking forward to the disruptive development of Web3. Let’s look forward to the official launch of Hipopo!
