Crypto: Binance Launches An Intergalactic Game On Telegram

Video games are becoming a key lever in the democratization of cryptocurrencies. Binance, the leading crypto exchange platform, sensed an opportunity with the huge success of Hamster Kombat. But that was just the beginning! The platform has just launched Moonbix, a space-themed mini-game available on Telegram. This game, based on the ‘play-to-earn’ logic, allows users to earn crypto rewards by completing interstellar missions.

Binance and its ambition with Moonbix

Binance, which recently faced a malware Clipper issue, is not new to hitting home runs, and with Moonbix, the platform strikes even harder. This game, accessible via Telegram, allows players to pilot a sort of spaceship, while catching cosmic objects like yellow stones and gifts. All this is of course sprinkled with crypto rewards for the best players.

We’re aware that our upcoming TG mini app game, Moonbix, was leaked ahead of the planned launch date. While we're thrilled by the community's response, we’re still fine-tuning the product to ensure the best user experience on the official launch.

We apologize for any…

The goal? Captivate an audience eager for new ways to earn crypto while having fun.

The simplicity of accessing Moonbix is another major asset. No need for a high-performance console, a simple Telegram connection is enough. And to boost engagement, Binance, issuer of BNB, offers bonuses to the most dedicated players.

That’s not all:

• Inviting friends earns extra points;
• Daily logins increase chances of winning;
• Linking your Binance account maximizes rewards.

A well-oiled strategy that allows the platform to retain its users while offering them a fun and rewarding experience. As Binance says:

“We are thrilled with the excitement that Moonbix has generated even before its official launch.”

Crypto games, a trend that is not waning

With Moonbix, Binance is riding the wave of crypto games, a booming sector. Players love the idea of earning money while having a blast, and Moonbix is no exception to this rule. This type of game, called ‘play-to-earn’, integrates cryptocurrency earnings directly into the gameplay.

In the case of Moonbix, these earnings are granted in the form of tokens that players can use within the game or exchange.

The game already leaked before its official launch, sparking speculation and palpable impatience among users. Binance has promised to fix the errors related to this leak and ensure an optimal experience during the definitive launch.

To avoid any issues, the centralized crypto exchange (CEX) also warns against fake accounts posing as official versions of Moonbix.

Compared to other popular crypto games, Moonbix stands out thanks to its simple design and engaging mechanics. It falls in line with Binance’s previous successes, as the platform is not new to experimenting in the crypto gaming universe.

Interestingly, Moonbix arrives right after the announcement of Hamster Kombat on Binance’s Launchpool. A coincidence? Not really, but players are benefiting from it.
