Maincard.io Launches Testnet on TON Blockchain: A Gateway to Web3 for Sports Fans

[PRESS RELEASE – Irvine, USA, February 8th, 2024]

Maincard.io, the leading Web3 sports fantasy manager, is thrilled to announce the launch of its innovative testnet on the Telegram Open Network (TON) blockchain directly in the Telegram app. This is a significant step towards realizing the shared vision of an inclusive and accessible blockchain future, bringing the benefits of Web3 technologies to sports enthusiasts worldwide.

Web3 Synergy: Maincard.io and TON’s Unified Vision for Blockchain Accessibility

At the close of 2023, Maincard.io successfully completed testing on the Polygon blockchain, including such features as gas-free transactions and tournaments. The project is now fully operational on the mainnet of the Polygon.

Now, Maincard.io is taking another leap forward to make Web3 technologies more accessible and understandable to a broader audience, aligning seamlessly with TON’s goals.

With the recent introduction of TON Space, a self-service wallet integrated into the Telegram app with 800 million monthly users (projected to reach 1.5 billion users by 2028), TON aims to attract 30% of Telegram’s active users over the next 3-5 years. This ambitious goal exceeds the combined active audience of Web3 users in the current crypto industry by several times, making it a step towards actual mass adoption.

Recognizing this shared vision, Maincard.io has initiated a new testnet to promote closer collaboration with TON, exploring potential benefits for Maincard and the entire Telegram audience.

“TON develops excellent conditions for blockchain mass adoption. We are happy to be at the forefront of fantasy gaming within their ecosystem and have all the necessary resources to catalyze user migration to TON chain”, – said Val Makovetskii, the founder and CEO of Maincard.io.

Testnet Process and Player Rewards

To accelerate user engagement, Maincard.io introduces a faster and more user-friendly testnet, incentivizing participants with a prize fund of up to 50,000 TON. The Maincard bot is now available on the Telegram app, enabling users to predict sports events. The testnet initially focuses on the Battle mode, with Calls mode and tournaments to follow.

The Maincard.io team has prepared a detailed guide for users on how to join the testnet, available at this link.

The prize pool will be allocated among the most active users, who would:

Place fantasy predictions and test other game mechanics.
Bring friends using the referral link.
Stay active on the project’s social networks (Telegram, Twitter, Discord).

All functional social activities will be considered in the comprehensive assessment of rewards.

Additionally, Maincard launched daily quests, the completion of which will count towards the distribution of rewards.

A distinctive feature of this testnet is the ability to choose to reward participation in TON tokens immediately or in MCN tokens a little later.

Presenting MCN: a token for success with Maincard.io

Maincoin (MCN) is Maincard’s native token designed to power the platform. Users can already earn rewards in the form of MCN for correctly predicting sporting events and use tokens within the platform to participate in tournaments, repair cards, and trade on the marketplace.

The plans for 2024 include token listing on the major Tier-1 exchanges. While many Web3 projects raise funding by selling tokens, which has a strong influence on the token price after listing, Maincard.io is different – the project is being funded by a team, and tokens are only distributed to early users. This creates a stable foundation for the project’s development. What’s more, Maincard.io already has a finished product that is being used by players, bringing utility to the MCN token.
