Prominent Telegram crypto game Tomarket will launch its TOMA token on the Aptos network this week, following a late-breaking shift from The Open Network (TON). It’s almost time for players to reap what they have sown in the tomato-themed game, as the token is set to start trading soon.
Tomarket has split its airdrop into at least three events. One already took place on October 31, but users could not withdraw or trade their tokens—this was more akin to revealing token allocations ahead of the airdrop. This is set to happen again ahead of the token listing date of December 20 following a December 18 snapshot of users, and at least once more after the fact.
In total, 80% of the entire token allocation will be gifted to players during the airdrop. Of this, 30% was revealed on October 31, another 30% is set to be revealed before the listing, and 17% will be airdropped at another undefined time—with a final 3% for “Early Adopter Rewards.”
Those who have received tokens, will be able to transfer and trade their tokens once the token is listed on December 20.
However, not all of the 50 million players will get a share of the bounty. Here’s a primer on who is set to receive TOMA tokens on Tomarket, how you’ll claim the tokens, and what to expect in the future.
Who’s eligible for the airdrop?
Prior to the original October 30 cutoff and the later move to Aptos, Tomarket set various tasks that players were required to complete before earning a share of the TOMA airdrop. These were the tasks:
- Add a tomato emoji to your Telegram display name
- Reach the Bronze (L4) level in Tomarket
- Connect a TON wallet
- Buy the premium medal (optional)
- Join the Tomarket Announcement community channel
Tomarket said that it will give out 80% of the entire token allocation during the airdrop, and by the token listing, 60% will have already been sent to players. It is unclear when the remaining 20% will be sent.
TOMA tokenomics
TOMA will have a total supply of 1 trillion tokens on Aptos. Here's a brief look at the tokenomics:
- 80%: player airdrop/rewards
- 10%: investors
- 8%: team
- 1%: ecosystem airdrop
- 1%: key opinion leader round
What do I need to do to claim it?
Eligible players have been awarded airdrop allocations, and then can choose to have the tokens deposited to one of multiple centralized exchanges—such as Bitget or Gate.io—or withdraw them into an external wallet. Tomarket set a cutoff for centralized exchange requests on December 18, and said that wallet claim requests will open on December 19.
What happens after the airdrop?
Tomarket has teased plans to evolve and expand following the airdrop, launching a Farming Pool feature and providing exposure to upcoming games and projects while giving players special benefits.
The Farming Pool will let TOMA token holders “tap into exclusive projects, maximize your earnings, earn a share of tokens from your referrals, and enjoy hassle-free earning opportunities.” Players who refer new users will gain a 10% share of whatever tokens their referrals generate, according to a post.
Tomarket also teased that the premium medal would provide some kind of booster to an upcoming feature, though it’s currently unclear whether that’s tied to the Farming Pool or some other kind of new feature or service on the horizon.
