You’ve probably already seen this screenshot; I’m a bit late to the party. Before, I thought TON would soon be kicked out of Telegram, leaving only Stars, but now my opinion has completely flipped. It looks like Stars are done for. Honestly, they’ve become a total pain. All these refunds, 21-day locks—it’s all unusable nonsense. Compare that to our good old sluggish TON, fully controlled by Telegram. And considering you can now accept payments in anything on the App Store, it makes sense to ditch Stars.
But here’s the catch. I’ve got a bunch of Stars stuck in my autobuy bot, and new gifts aren’t coming out, probably because they’ll be sold for TON now. They also promised new functionality, specifically displaying blockchain-based gifts in profiles. Well, if they link a wallet address to the profile, showing gifts from it shouldn’t be an issue.

In the chat, they’re discussing how many active users there are on Telegram. You need to understand that 260,000 wallets doesn’t equal 260,000 users. I personally have about ten wallets myself. You could also look at the audience size in Portals and Tonnel. It comes out to a million. But that’s also a heavily inflated number. For example, in Tonnel, I have around 50 referrals left, and none of them have made a single purchase.
By the most optimistic estimates, the active, paying audience is 50-100 thousand people. But showing those numbers to investors is laughable.

Good morning, guys. Got up early, washed up, combed my hair, put on my fanciest clothes. Think I’m heading to a wedding? Nope, it’s the BLUM listing today! The action kicks off at 1:00 PM Istanbul time on Bitget, Gate, and MEXC exchanges. If you want to sell today, you’ll only get 30% of your balance; the rest gets burned.
When I think of BLUM, I’m reminded of that joke about arriving so late it’s already early. Though, why am I even thinking about it? I totally skipped it. Anyway, this is probably the last tap-to-earn listing; the rest just died quietly.

Fees in Tonnel have been reduced from 10% to 4% (2% referral). Competition is a good thing.

Totally forgot to mention the upcoming listings.
BLUM is hitting DEX and several CEXs (Bitget and Gate) on June 27!
Not Pixel promised CEX listings… soon! Honestly, centralized exchanges are handy stuff; you can dump your coins without drawing attention. Some folks have gotten too nosy, watching how devs stack the order book. 😁

Those who couldn’t buy monkeys can go to some Palace and buy; the collection didn’t exactly skyrocket. If you want new stickers, they’re coming soon (no exact date yet). Not monkeys, of course, but still, during the sale, Sticker Store will traditionally crash, and then it’s all about quick hands and no tricks. Blink, and the collection’s sold out.
These stickers, again, are some kind of nonsense. I can’t imagine real ways to use them, except to manage to buy at the start (if you can) and immediately sell for more (if you can).

Well, it’s time to get some work done. Let’s start with our gift marketplaces. The situation is interesting—until recently, no one doubted Tonnel’s dominance, and MRKT seemed like a contender for second place, thanks to Tyler Durden’s hype. But the market has reshuffled the marketplaces as it pleased, and Portals, the last to join, came out on top.
It’s clear Tonnel has deflated, largely due to Mr. Freeman’s questionable moves. Just take yesterday’s purge of inactive users— I had about 250 referrals, and now only 46 remain. Though that’s still a lot; referral payouts came maybe three times total. I don’t know what activity the surviving referrals showed—probably just joining giveaways.
Now we’re waiting for Mint. When I saw the news yesterday, I couldn’t figure out what marketplace it was—it had completely slipped my mind. But I managed to recall—it’s the one Snoop Dogg was shilling. 😁
Having many marketplaces might be a good thing, but it’s not very convenient. Gifts are scattered across different platforms, and now stickers are sold everywhere too. Check here, check there—it eats up a ton of time. I’d rather the weaker competitors die off soon.
By the way, I’m thinking—now instead of tappers, we’ve got a bunch of marketplaces. True to Telegram’s classic style, one of them is bound to scam users. Wonder who it’ll be? Though I’m sugarcoating it—classically, almost all of them should scam.

And the fifth reason is Yuga Labs. Yes, the collection saw a massive pump thanks to solid marketing (attracting global stars like Eminem and Paris Hilton) and a unique model, which the Sticker Store capitalized on (granting owners commercial rights to their NFTs). But that was a while ago, and since May 2022, the collection has been losing popularity and dropping in value. Why it should pump in Telegram now is utterly unclear.

The third reason—apparently, the monkeys didn’t like how the sale was handled. So much so that they want to release another sticker pack to finally show everyone how it’s done.
The first sticker pack already had a pretty hefty supply and cost. I’m reading their post aloud, but for some reason, I’m saying something different: we want to print ourselves some more money.

Let’s start, shall we, specifically with the Sticker Store. Of course, I couldn’t buy the Bored Ape Original yesterday. I tried using stars, but it turned out I needed TON. Even then, there were issues—one account scooped up a huge number of these monkeys. Likely someone’s bot, and there’s reason to suspect it’s the Sticker Store’s own. The granny by the entrance said the numbers one through three also belong to someone tied to TF.
Apparently, there’s a wild idea behind these stickers to depict a moon flight, which we’ll naturally watch from the sidelines. After all, the fewer of these pictures in the hands of clueless users, the cheaper it is to pump them. I’m not really keen on buying this stuff, and I’ve got five reasons for that.

And today the official monkey stickers will arrive. Scammy Sanya reacts with the comment "lol". I wrote earlier that this could happen and the monkeys can now put Sanya in any comfortable pose, but in the end they got the holders of "non-original" stickers. The price of the old monkeys has already been lowered.
And Sanya doesn't care, he has already earned his money on the monkeys. By the way, perhaps the stickers will be released not in the Sticker Store, but on MRKT.

Smash, you legend, sold one Pepe for more than my entire collection is worth. And congrats to 1win on snagging a gift for 25,000 TON. 😂
Here I am, sitting around waiting for these damn gifts, who knows why, when all I needed to do was not mess up at the right time. I’ve known Smash for a while—he’s got a sharp mind, worth learning from. I’m jealous, but in a good way. Think I’ll pour a glass for him right now.

No gifts yet, but hang in there! The calendar Easter egg is still in play—today’s the date, June 18. I’m still convinced new gifts will drop today. And the good news is, it won’t be late at night, as it needs to fit within today’s date.
I’m still waiting—how about you?

I’ll be scaring you with all this redness, nothing else left to do. By the way, I recently read about a study claiming that overweight people earn less than thin ones. Maybe it’s not the gifts dropping in price, but us getting fatter?
Out of all the collections, I’d highlight Sailor Moon, which totally flopped. Every single buyer on the secondary market is in the red. Turns out, there are more crypto bros with money than anime fans.
Pepe’s dropping too, but the gains there were so huge it almost makes sense. Meanwhile, Kallen T is mass-dumping his Pepe into the blockchain. No clue what he’s up to.
The only upside to this bloody gift market mess is that you can finally complete your collection. The guys who used to act all high and mighty are now dumping everything at floor price. No other way—nobody’s willing to pay above floor for anything right now.

Decided to post an ad for Telegram gifts, even though no one thought to pay me anything for it. Liked that the video posed the question: What happens next? What happens next? A dump in value, of course. It’s already happened; turns out it’s all fabricated, and there’s hardly any real trading.
The ad was posted on the NFT New York City account.
Things are getting pretty dull; gifts have completely died out. Even those Chinese millionaires of yours—Cici, Gigi, Vivi—are sitting tight with their millions in their accounts, not buying anything.
There’s hardly anything to write about. Not about Cattea, surely, who’ve changed their tune again. Instead of cat-bitcoins, now it’s some crystals, and the level I just recently maxed out at 1500 is back to level one. Oh well, at least they paid some measly compensation. I’d love to see the faces of people who bought coins to level up.

Long ago, around early 2018 I think, when the crypto winter was kicking in and Bitcoin started plummeting from its highs, there was a belief that the Chinese were selling their BTC to buy gifts (not Telegram ones, but real ones) for the Chinese New Year. 😁

Got swamped yesterday evening, and it turns out there was some hype about new gifts with fresh mechanics coming out. People were waiting, but nothing happened. Meanwhile, I crashed in a great mood and, gotta say, slept like a champ. Well, not exactly nothing—word is, Labubu dropped on VK. Why there and not here? I’ve already said I’m waiting for Labubu in the gifts. Especially now with all the buzz that some “Chinese” folks are allegedly buying up Pepe, inviting other “Chinese” with suspiciously similar nicknames, flexing millions in their balances, and threatening to buy everything just because they feel like it. Labubu should catch their eye too.
I suspect these “Chinese” are about as real as Snoop Dogg on Telegram, but who cares? The main thing is they’re buying.

The peek.tg service has been updated. Finally, you can search for gifts by background and background pattern. It’s damn convenient for collectors. Too bad you can count those collectors on one hand—mostly just speculators out there.

Gifts are rising in price, hooray. Though they’re going up because TON has dropped. And why did TON drop? Who the heck knows—apparently because the US got into a new war. Our Telegram currency has fallen for far less significant reasons before.
TON holders in any confusing situation: Sell! That’s how it’s supposed to work. But in reality, holders just wake up in the morning, and TON is already down.
So what to do in this situation? Personally, I’ve decided to take a little break. I’ll eat some beshbarmak, have a beer, and there’s still plenty unwatched on YouTube.

Oh, guys, it’s both funny and sad. I bought a Sailor Moon on the premarket ages ago for 1,000 TON. On an Electric Purple background, all nice and pretty. That purchase has been sitting in Tonnel, awaiting fulfillment. But the seller decided that was too cheap and listed it on Portals instead. And sold it for 24 TON. 😁😭
He still has a 200 TON deposit in Tonnel, which he’ll lose once the deal is finally canceled.

I’ve already mentioned that it feels like all these NFT collection owners came to Telegram just in name. It’s as if someone from TF created all these channels and set them up as they saw fit. Both the original and non-original stuff are about equally present. I think all these collections couldn’t care less about Telegram—maybe they lazily glance at sellouts, counting the money they got from Telegram.
So, the fourth reason is Scammy Sasha, who might want to pump something up, or maybe he’ll just ditch it—after all, no one forced you to buy the stickers.

The first reason—they’re ugly. For clarity, I’ve attached old non-original stickers and new official ones to this post. Who even drew these? People often offer to draw stickers for my channel for about three cents each. And honestly, that’s the kind of quality you should expect.
And that leads straight to the second reason—the official stickers look less like the original NFTs than the non-original ones do.

Sticker Store is showing as if their stickers are being bought up by the West. The graph displays the countries of the Twitter account’s followers. It’s like Russian-speaking users have completely lost interest. Sure, sure, it’s all a scam. Honestly, there’s a lot I’d love to say about the Sticker Store, the monkeys, and other mysterious collections. I’ll take a sip of inspiration now and create something.

Decided not to write posts until new gifts drop, but they haven’t. Let’s toss those calendars with dates into the trash. It’s boring without the anticipation of a miracle—I should at least step outside and breathe some sea air. With all this gift stuff, I’ve started living like a typical shut-in.
As for the gift market growth, I still don’t buy it—I think the bear market is ongoing. Pavel hasn’t even pumped new money into the market for a new interview, which suggests the goals have likely been met.
There’s nothing worth buying on the marketplaces—no desired models, and what’s available is selling at insane prices. I’m waiting for sellers to snap out of their euphoria and return to this harsh reality. Except today, I did buy a loot bag on GetGems to ease the withdrawal. 154 TON, pricey. But that’s the floor price right now.

Subscribers are reporting that the Bombie game token is already trading on exchanges. Unfortunately, I forgot to withdraw my drop. Guess you’ll have to multiply without me. 😁
For the guys who take life too seriously, let me clarify that the multiples there are negative. By some estimates, it’s -X9 from investments. But I didn’t donate, didn’t withdraw the drop, so I’m basically break-even.
