Telegram tap-to-earn game MemeFi is gearing up to launch its token after multiple delays and a shift to the Sui network. With two days left before the game takes a snapshot of player activity to determine token allocations, the developers have announced a last-chance opportunity for players to juice their share of the drop.
Ahead of the snapshot on Friday, November 15, MemeFi players can earn triple the rewards from partnered earning campaigns within the game. That includes tasks like playing games from other Telegram developers, signing up for an account at crypto exchange OKX, or following specific crypto-centric community channels on the messaging app.
None of these tasks tie into MemeFi’s core tap-to-earn fighting gameplay, which sees you pummeling various meme-inspired enemies on your smartphone or tablet. However, they have been a big part of the overall MemeFi experience for months now.
In fact, the promotions have increasingly taken up more and more of the game interface in recent weeks as MemeFi’s developers apparently pack the game with connections to other companies and projects. But right now, at least, the partner promos could give players a late boost ahead of the airdrop.
MemeFi plans to launch its token on Sui on November 22, following this week’s snapshot. Originally, the game was building on Ethereum layer-2 network Linea, but said in late October that it would shift to Sui instead and work closely with network creator Mysten Labs to onboard players to the layer-1 ecosystem.
Linea, interestingly, is now gearing up to launch its own token. On Wednesday, a new nonprofit Linea Foundation was established, with plans to debut a token and hold an airdrop for early users sometime in Q1 2025.
