Coin World Report:
The blockchain industry has long faced a core challenge: despite the continuous improvement in blockchain technology, the adoption rate by users remains limited. Compared to traditional social platforms with billions of users, Web3 has only about 5 million active users. How to effectively reach and attract mainstream users has become an urgent issue for Web3 projects to consider and practice.
By 2024, Telegram has gradually become an accelerator for promoting the mass adoption of Web3. With a user base of 950 million and a crypto-friendly ecosystem, Telegram stands out in the process of transitioning from Web2 users to the Web3 world. Several key points of the current Telegram ecosystem are worth noting:
Validated growth patterns: The TON ecosystem has proven that the combination of viral dissemination mechanisms and social distribution can effectively promote mass adoption. In addition to TON, multiple public chains such as BNB Chain, Aptos, Sui, and Core are also competing for users in the Telegram ecosystem. Furthermore, many centralized exchanges (CEX) have also listed tokens of Telegram ecosystem projects to compete for traffic.
Market timing: Although there is still ample room for growth in the Telegram ecosystem, the effectiveness of customer acquisition may be weakened due to competition among projects for the same group of users. Project teams need to gradually improve their user acquisition and retention strategies.
Customer acquisition cost: With more projects joining the ecosystem, the cost of user acquisition is expected to rise, making early action crucial.
Four stages of the product lifecycle and essential growth tools
When Web3 projects start creating Telegram Mini App products, the issue of growth throughout the product lifecycle cannot be ignored. The following are essential tools we have summarized that can help project teams improve efficiency and effectiveness during the rapidly changing stages of Telegram traffic.
Launch stage
The initial stage of any Web3 project faces the challenge of gaining attention and building an initial user base. Solutions specifically designed for this growth issue can provide ways for project teams to accumulate initial traffic. The following tools are designed to address growth issues at this stage:
Galxe: A comprehensive Web3 community growth and engagement platform, focusing on user acquisition through Web3 tasks.
Ton.AI: Provides precise user acquisition services based on fine-grained user tags and profiles, helping projects reach target audiences from day one.
Growth stage
When a project starts gaining attention, it needs to increase community engagement and continue to expand its user base. This stage emphasizes scalable automation solutions that can handle the increasing number of users while maintaining the quality of user engagement. Several noteworthy platforms serve this critical stage:
TaskOn: A Web3 task collaboration platform integrated with a loyalty system, improving marketing and operational efficiency.
Footprint Growthly: A no-code Telegram Mini App solution that helps projects establish a self-growth engine.
Zealy: Provides gamified experiences through a task platform, combined with loyalty systems to achieve continuous user engagement.
Mature stage
Mature projects need to optimize their existing user base while attracting new users. This stage requires complex user segmentation and targeted engagement strategies. Advanced analytics and user behavior tracking are crucial for maintaining growth momentum. There are mature solutions available in the market:
TaskOn and Zealy: Provide advanced loyalty systems with features such as leaderboards, enabling complex user segmentation.
Footprint Growthly: Combines on-chain and off-chain data analysis to provide comprehensive user profiles and segmentation capabilities, offering deeper user insights.
Monetization stage
The final stage focuses on converting the existing user base into sustainable revenue streams. This stage requires complex advertising systems and tools for monetizing traffic. Projects in this stage implement advanced revenue optimization strategies while maintaining user engagement and satisfaction. The focus shifts from pure growth to balancing user acquisition and revenue generation, requiring tools that can effectively monetize user activities without compromising user experience. Solutions for this stage include:
Ton.AI: Focuses on Telegram’s intelligent advertising platform, maximizing sustainable revenue through rich user profiles.
Adsgram: An advertising platform specifically for Telegram Mini Apps.
Telega: Provides specialized commercial advertising services within Telegram channels.
Conclusion
As the Web3 industry continues to develop, growth tools play an increasingly critical role in narrowing the adoption gap. Combining data analysis with targeted growth mechanisms has become the emerging standard for successful Web3 projects. The development of Web3 growth tools signifies an important step towards mainstream adoption. The ability to understand and influence user behavior will determine whether a project can achieve sustainable growth.
