Robby Yung on Telegram’s Role in the Future of Web3 Gaming
By Shikha Singh
Robby Yung, CEO of Animoca Brands—a billion-dollar Hong Kong-based company specializing in game development, blockchain products, and digital entertainment—foresees a future where every Web3 project incorporates a Telegram experience.
In a recent statement, he highlighted the remarkable rise of Telegram gaming, particularly with hits like Hamster Kombat, which has drawn in over 300 million users. Yung asserts that utilizing Telegram for user onboarding and marketing will be crucial for projects spanning various sectors, from DeFi to gaming.
Analysts increasingly agree with Yung’s perspective, suggesting that Web3 games will mostly complement Telegram Mini Apps (TMAs).
Telegram Mini Apps allow developers to create web applications within the platform, leveraging its large user base and the efficiency of the TON blockchain.
For instance, educational gaming ecosystems like PiP World are already using tap-to-earn mechanics to attract players and guide them to their core offerings.
With 950 million users, Telegram is in a unique position to promote the widespread adoption of Web3 technologies.
