Clicking on the screen in Telegram can earn you Tokens? The SocialFi project PAWS has turned this concept into reality. As a "tap-to-earn" phenomenon developed by the original teams of Notcoin and DOGS, PAWS has attracted 75 million users in just 2.5 months, becoming a phenomenal project in the encryption social space by 2025. Now, its Token has completed multiple rounds of Airdrop and has landed on mainstream exchanges. We delve into its development path and future potential.
Project Positioning and Technology Migration, from Viral Applications to Ecological Construction
PAWS is not a typical meme coin. It integrates SocialFi, gamification mechanisms, and the native ecosystem of Telegram, allowing users to earn tokens through low-threshold tasks such as clicking, signing in, and inviting friends, significantly lowering the participation threshold for new users in encryption.
Key strategic transformation occurs in March 2025:
Migrate from TON to Solana Blockchain, to solve scalability bottlenecks and reduce transaction costs;
Relying on Solana’s high throughput capabilities, we plan to develop NFT assets, staking modules, and DeFi+AI (DeFAI) products, promoting its evolution from a single application to a multidimensional economic ecosystem.
Airdrop Strategy and Claiming Mechanism, Community-Driven Large-Scale Distribution
Airdrop is the core engine for user growth of PAWS. From March to April 2025, the project will launch the airdrop in two phases:
Qualification acquisition: Users obtain airdrop eligibility through Telegram interaction or by holding Solana ecosystem assets (such as Mad Lads NFT, $WIF, etc.);
Claim process: Users need to verify their eligibility through the Airdrop checker of the Phantom wallet and complete the claim between March 11 and March 15;
Scale and Distribution: Out of a total supply of 100 billion Tokens, 62.5% is allocated for current and future Airdrops, and 7.5% is directed to the Solana OG community, setting one of the largest community incentives in the meme coin space.
To celebrate the listing on the exchange on April 16, PAWS and the trading platform Blum are launching three major events, offering a prize pool of 250 million Tokens to further stimulate user trading and dissemination.
Price prediction models and long-term potential, value assessment from a multidimensional perspective.
Based on three major analytical frameworks, the long-term path of PAWS is becoming clearer:
Technical trend model: If the early viral Token (such as PEPE) cycle is replicated, it may reach $0.00025 by 2026;
Metcalfe’s Law: When the number of users reaches 150 million, the network value may grow exponentially, expected price in 2027 $0.0008;
Income Discount Model: Establish revenue streams through advertising, NFT sales, and token burns, with a valuation potentially rising to $0.10 - $1.00 by 2030.
The current price is highly volatile (with a historical high of $0.00131135), but if the ecosystem expansion can enhance the Token’s utility, it is expected to support long-term value.
Future Roadmap and Challenges, Sustainable Exploration Beyond Meme
The ambition of PAWS goes beyond Airdrop. According to its white paper and community announcements, the core planning includes:
Staking and Economic System: Launch Token staking and liquidity pools to incentivize long-term holding;
Integration of NFT and gamification: Issue character NFTs and integrate task gameplay to enhance user retention;
Ecological Cooperation: Establish alliances with leading Solana projects (such as Jito, Phantom, $WIF).
Potential risks cannot be ignored:
The unlocking rules for the 10% of the tokens held by the team are not disclosed, posing a risk of selling pressure;
If user growth stagnates amid market fluctuations, the token may become a "pure meme asset."
Conclusion: A Pioneer in the Integration of Social and Finance
PAWS represents an innovative direction for SocialFi—transforming social behavior into sustainable economic benefits. Its Airdrop strategy and exchange listing have proven viral growth capability, and whether it can leverage the Solana ecosystem to complete the leap to a "utility Token" will be the biggest highlight in the second half of 2025. For investors, focusing on key metrics amidst volatility: user retention rate, progress of new listings on exchanges, and the implementation of NFT products, is essential to capture long-term value in the high-risk meme track.
