$BUILD The Ecosystem
The Most Underrated Token in the TON Ecosystem or a Drop You'll Miss and Regret.
Why will $BUILD become the new standard of quality, and what makes it unique? Let's dive in.
Part 1. $BUILD & Community
Most of you have probably encountered the Community Bot this year.
Remember the first campaigns on Notcoin?
Well, $BUILD is the native token of Communities.
According to the overall statistics as of July 13, they have conducted over 500 campaigns.
For newcomers, here's a brief explanation: Behind Community is the Open Builders team, which has shown outstanding performance over the year thanks to their products and solutions (e.g., Notcoin, Not Games).
This same team developed the Tonstarter Launchpad.
Tonstarter was the first project from Open Builders. It is the first launchpad on TON, which is helping projects with fundraising and go-to-market (GTM) strategies. It attracts investors and builds a user base.
So, Community is the second project launched by the team in August 2023. It is the first service connecting TON and Telegram. The idea is simple: to create convenient interactions between teams, projects, and players.
This article won't focus heavily on Notcoin, but Notcoin Explore deserves a mention.
Not Explore is a product of the Notcoin ecosystem that acts as an accelerator. It allows projects to launch campaigns with tasks through the Community Bot. These campaigns operate within the Not app, where users complete tasks and receive rewards in the form of notcoins. The projects themselves determine how many notcoins users will receive for completing these tasks.
If you haven't grasped the overall picture yet, let me help:
- Tonstarter: for convenient fundraising.
- Community Bot: to implement campaigns.
- Notcoin Explore: an accelerator helping with campaign launches.
- Notcoin: attracts audience and attention.
Together, these form a comprehensive ecosystem for launching projects!
If you examine the team closely, you'll find that one of Open Builders' partners is the key fund of the TON ecosystem — TOP.
Why is TOP.CO important?
TOP.CO is a genuine indicator of quality. Their portfolio includes the best Web3 projects in the TON ecosystem across various categories: DEX, Wallets, GameFi, or NFT marketplaces. This fund supports key builders of the ecosystem.
Their own product is the well-known @Wallet, often associated with Telegram by most users.
It's safe to say that every active user of the TON ecosystem has encountered projects from TOP.CO's portfolio.
You might have also heard about TOP.CO thanks to their recent announcement of investments in Blum, highlighted by Smerkis at the Gateway conference (https://t.me/blumcrypto/456), we will get back to that.
In short: Community = Open Builders = Notcoin.
Add the best "baker" on TON — TOP.CO, and it becomes clear that you can expect exceptionally high quality from this team.
The role of Open Builders in the TON ecosystem is hard to overstate. This is a team that literally lays the foundation for it. And it's not just about GameFi, but also about working with the community.
If you thought Notcoin was just about games, you're mistaken. First and foremost, it's about communities. If Notcoin was just an ordinary clicker, it wouldn't have succeeded.
Who knows, perhaps the key product of the team will be $BUILD a year after the main performance launch of 2024.
Part 2. Utility
A logical question users have before the listing of any new token is: What is its utility?
Often, it seems like utilities are forced. Realizations turn out to be unnecessary, life doesn't get easier, and the new token is just another opportunity for speculation, not real use.
The new token from Open Builders doesn't try to sell you something you didn't need yesterday.
No, this isn't a revolution in tokenomics or technology. It's an open approach and quality implementation. Builders just want to build.
$BUILD will be used in the Community Bot for access to drops, allocations, rewards, and much more.
The team regularly mentions grants for developers, and Community tools will be available for free use and further development (open-source approach). This involves convenient solutions based on Telegram for millions of users, where $BUILD becomes the key utility token.
The goal is the common good and sustainable growth of the ecosystem. It's time to move beyond GameFi and DEX.
Now let's look at this utility in the context of the product ecosystem: Tonstarter, Community, Notcoin Explore, and others.
From a Community post, you can also learn the main points of token implementation:
Advanced features: For business cases, $BUILD will be utilized as the main token. Revenue: Will be directed to $BUILD for grant support and ecosystem growth. Grants for builders: To incentivize the development of open-source tools.
But what if I tell you that launch pools and $BUILD can play a much more significant role than just quick earnings and attracting users?
Part 3. Supply & Drop
Why can $BUILD become an indicator of a thoughtful and strong audience?
Holder of $BUILD > Holder of any "Fast Food Zoo" token (CATS, GOATS, RATS, etc.)
Let's see who the $BUILD drop is targeted at:
If 100% of your audience are strong holders, what could be better?
$BUILD has a limited supply, which is distributed wisely and purposefully among strong hands and smart holders. For example, the fall Early campaign has already distributed a significant drop to quality users.
Why might you have missed the first drop?
It's simple: the first drop was aimed at quality users, and they indeed have noticed it.
But how do you become a quality user?
Start by analyzing your information field:
Are you satisfied with fast-food content with referral links in every post?
Read only quality material, and by the way,
how many referral links can you count in my articles?
How is the $BUILD supply distributed?
- To smart holders: 5 million tokens (5% of the total supply) have already been distributed , confirming a total supply of 100 million tokens.
- To ecosystem development: N% of tokens will be directed towards development and grants (expect a share of 20–30%).
- To marketing and launch pools: The remaining part will be distributed through various campaigns.
Where does the money and growth potential come from?
Community has long demonstrated success, confirmed by the results of previous campaigns and participant activity. (https://t.me/join_community/229)
Moreover, the Open Builders ecosystem provides many opportunities and approaches for earning, as described earlier.
- High demand for the token within the ecosystem.
- With proper attention from users, the capitalization can easily exceed $300 million.
- During the first drop (in September), a significant number of tokens were distributed among users.
- Many received more than 1,000 tokens, which, with future capitalization, could amount to $3,000+.
Still want to play 100 tap projects daily without understanding who is behind them and what their plans are?
Very soon, projects will have to work much harder to remain competitive.
Part 4. Nothing, Just Earn
Recently, DOGS conducted a drop based on the age of Telegram accounts, allowing them to assess the quality of the audience. However, what if the process can be made even simpler, eliminating the need for donations or searching for complex metrics?
Are you a holder? If yes, then you're suitable for us!
Earn - is a new product from Notcoin, first presented by Sasha Plotvinov at Gateway. At the event, we could see pools with $BUILD, $DOGS, and $PX tokens.
Wait! What is a launch pool, why distribute tokens, and how does it work?
A launch pool is a way to support promising projects by offering users the opportunity to earn new tokens for staking existing ones. This is a popular mechanism, but on TON, there are no platforms yet that can compete with giants like Binance Launchpool.
I see an opportunity for the Notcoin community to fill this niche. Imagine:
There is a high probability that these projects will set a trend, and afterwards, everyone will want to launch their token through Earn. This will create a symbiosis between projects, holders, and the community, forming a new system of quality and trust.
Part 5. Conclusion
The Open Builders team has never aimed to repeat successes in already occupied niches. Their philosophy is to create new opportunities and lay a solid foundation for long-term solutions, not chasing quick profits.
The seriousness of their approach is confirmed by both impressive achievements and the attention of key players in the ecosystem.
The $BUILD token is based on a strong ecosystem, ambitious development plans, and a core of reliable holders. It is distinguished by a well-thought-out supply distribution and an innovative approach, perfectly fitting into the context of our growing ecosystem.
If this wasn't enough for you, that's your choice. The crowd is rarely smart, and only a few can see the potential earlier than others, delve into the details, and make informed decisions.
I hope this material helped you better understand the products of the Open Builders team and the prospects of $BUILD.
Initially, these notes were created for personal analysis and structuring information, not for public distribution. I share them with you so that you can understand the essence and potential together with me.
Look deeper, analyze, compare facts, respect your time — and success will be inevitable.
