Solana Cat Coin MEW Claws Its Way into Trending Telegram Mini-Game

Web3 gaming ecosystem Pixelverse is set to integrate the Solana-based meme coin character MEW into its real-time Telegram mini-game, Rooster. This move is expected to attract a new audience within the Telegram ecosystem, where Pixelverse games operate. MEW will be the first Solana-based meme coin to be featured on the Telegram Open Network (TON).”

Pixelverse isn’t just about creating a game; we’re building a retail-friendly brand that captures audience attention and onboards millions to our product lines,” said Kori Leon, Chief Operating Officer of PixelVerse, in a Telegram message.

“The MEW partnership is possible as Pixelverse aims to integrate other IPs into their Pixel Universe.

“MEW, a character and token based on cats, launched amidst the Solana meme coin frenzy in March and quickly gained popularity. 

The token, which is named “cat in a dog’s world,” reached a peak market capitalization of nearly $700 million in early April, according to CoinGecko data. Pixelverse’s games allow players to earn token rewards for winning with their in-game robots or characters. The platform boasts an estimated 35 million active players. MEW will join other distinctive characters on Pixelverse, including the doge character from the Dogecoin (DOGE) meme coin.

The integration of MEW into Pixelverse’s gaming platform is a significant development in the gaming ecosystem, demonstrating the increasing influence of blockchain technology and meme culture in the gaming industry. It will be interesting to see how this partnership impacts both MEW and Pixelverse in the coming months.

Key takeaways:

  • MEW to be featured on Pixelverse’s Rooster: The Solana-based meme coin character will be the first of its kind on the Telegram Open Network (TON).
  • Pixelverse’s goal: To create a retail-friendly brand and onboard millions of users to their product lines.
  • MEW’s popularity: The cat-themed token reached a peak market capitalization of nearly $700 million in April.
  • Pixelverse’s player base: An estimated 35 million active players earn token rewards in Pixelverse games.

This partnership represents a unique intersection of meme culture, blockchain gaming, and the Telegram ecosystem. The future implications for both MEW and Pixelverse are promising, and the gaming community is watching with anticipation.
