PiP World Expands with Telegram Game Launch

PiP World, known for its previous acquisition of a Roblox stock simulator, is now making strides in the gaming world by introducing a novel Telegram-based game called Gold Rush. The release of this game marks another effort to establish a robust ecosystem within the web3 space and extend their reach among users from both Roblox and Telegram platforms. 1

Gold Rush, which launched on Thursday, allows players to start as interns and work their way up to becoming hedge fund managers, simulating a gamified financial literacy experience. According to PiP World's CEO Saad Naja, this move aims to further expand their ecosystem leading to the release of their upcoming blockchain-based mobile video game, PiP Trader, planned for later this year.

The web3 gaming ecosystem, including games like Notcoin, Hamster Kombat, and Catizen, has seen a surge in activity thanks to platforms like Telegram. However, it remains to be seen whether the appeal lies in gameplay enjoyment or the allure of potential financial rewards. Many Telegram games, including Gold Rush, utilize the TON blockchain, a notable protocol initially developed by Telegram.

By leveraging Telegram's extensive user base and innovative blockchain technology, PiP World continues to explore the intersection of gaming and financial education, potentially offering a unique gaming experience that blends economic concepts with interactive play.
