TOP 3 Telegram Mini Apps you should know about in 2024.

What's happening

In 2024, crypto project developers found a goldmine – Telegram Mini Apps . Three projects have managed to attract tens of millions of users by offering them a simple way to dive into the world of cryptocurrency right in their favorite messenger. Let’s explore how they achieved this and what they offer to users.

The world of cryptocurrencies is constantly changing: we have seen the rise and fall of play-to-earn (P2E) projects, the bloom of decentralized finance (DeFi), the emergence of meme tokens, and many other trends. Some fade away, while others are reborn in new formats.

In 2024, the new trend became mini-applications in Telegram. Three projects particularly excelled in this area, gathering an impressive audience. Here’s a look at each of them.

PAWS is the absolute leader among Telegram mini-applications. Within the first 10 days after its launch, it attracted 27 million users, and at the time of writing this article, its audience exceeds 54 million people.

Telegram Mini Apps have opened a new chapter in the history of crypto projects. They have addressed the industry's main issue — the complexity of entry for ordinary users. Now there’s no need to navigate complicated wallets and exchanges; just open the familiar Telegram.

However, it's important to remember safety. Even if a project is popular and seems reliable, always follow the basic rules:

Don't trust suspicious offers, even if they seem beneficial

What’s next

The success of these three projects (and not just them; just think of Notcoin or Hamster Kombat) will undoubtedly inspire other developers to create new mini apps in Telegram. We are likely to see even more innovative projects trying to replicate their success.

In the meantime, we can observe the development of current leaders and how they adapt to the growing competition and changing user needs.
