The PAWS project continues token distribution despite disappearing from Telegram

A recent unexpected event occurred: the official PAWS channel and bot on Telegram were removed from the platform. However, this does not mean that the scheduled token distribution has been canceled. All program participants can continue to participate, but they must complete the mandatory requirement on the project’s official website.

The PAWS team faced serious restrictions imposed by Telegram regarding mini-applications. According to the platform’s new policy, all embedded applications must operate exclusively on the TON blockchain. This issue has become a decisive factor for the project’s future: the developers planned to distribute tokens based on the Solana blockchain, not TON. Community speculation suggests that this decision led to sanctions from Telegram. The team issued a statement about their right to freely develop their projects and soon disappeared.

Mandatory Steps to Receive Rewards in PAWS

Your accumulated points and accounts remain accessible—they have been transferred to the project’s official web interface (paws.community/app). To log in, use the same wallet that was linked to your Telegram mini-application account.

The process is quite simple. On the main page of your personal dashboard, find the Activity check section. This verification confirms your activity and distinguishes real users from bots. After successful verification, click the Next button and wait for tokens to be sent to your linked wallet.

It is worth noting that the PAWS system includes many filters to protect against automated actions. As a result, a significant portion of participants may not pass the verification. For honest users, this is a good sign—rewards will be distributed among genuinely active people.

Token Value Assessment and Actual Payout

The PAWS team has chosen a voucher model similar to Notcoin’s approach. On the Magic Eden pre-market, vouchers are valued at 0.067 SOL per 300K block. Based on this price, the estimated rate will be approximately $0.00003797 per PAWS token (at the current Solana exchange rate).

For users who have accumulated around 1.6 million points in the project, this could mean a potential payout of 0.357 SOL, which is roughly $60 at current prices. This is significantly lower than what Notcoin participants received with their $3000 drop, but it still represents a decent result with minimal time investment.

Thus, PAWS remains a viable project despite technical difficulties and its departure from Telegram. Timely completion of the Activity check will allow all interested users to receive their rightful rewards.
