The Banana Game, a small game that has been released on Steam, has recently launched on TON in the past 3 days. I believe many people have started playing it, and if you haven't yet, it's still early, so you can still join in.

All operations in The Banana Game are at zero cost. You can claim one banana NFT every 8 hours, and by completing social tasks, you can earn NFTs. Once you have NFTs, you can sell them on the platform. Basically, ordinary users can obtain NFTs worth $10 each (great for multiple accounts), and many can get NFTs worth $500.

It's worth noting that the above is just the price of the NFTs, without considering the subsequent airdrops of the native currency and CARV, which is why The Banana Game exploded in popularity as soon as it was released.

So today, let's take a look at how to play for free, with the details as follows:

• First, an introduction: A beginner's guide to airdrops
• Next, an introduction: Why you should play The Banana Game, and how it differs from Hamster Combat and Pixelverse
• Finally, an introduction: Project background and how to maximize benefits

Introduction: Game Features

• Game duration: 5 minutes per session
• Maximum daily frequency: 3 times
• Main game objective: Accumulate banana peels (Peels), which serve as points for future airdrops
• Most attractive feature: NFTs are tradable
• NFT floor price: $10/NFT
• Highest rarity NFT: $500/NFT
• Low-level NFTs can be sold for Peels

1. The Banana Game Beginner's Guide

Step 1: Claim Bananas

• Players can claim one ordinary banana every 8 hours
• Game link: https://t.me/OfficialBananaBot/banana?startapp=referral=D8O0F71 (Register to receive 1 NFT)
• Click Claim
• Click Harvest
• Click Put to bag to claim bananas (complete social tasks to claim 7 bananas on the first day)

Step 2: Claim Banana Peels------Peels

• Continuously tap the center of the screen to claim banana peels (Peels serve as points and are the basis for future airdrops.)
• Different rarity bananas yield different amounts of Peels

Step 3: Complete Social Tasks to Get More Bananas

• Click Tasks
• Complete social tasks to earn Peels
• For every 3 tasks completed, you can earn one banana

• The tasks above can be completed except for binding the wallet, which is currently not possible.
• You can claim 7 bananas on the first day.
• Every 18 hours of gameplay, a rare banana will drop;
• Generally, if you play continuously for 3-5 days, you can earn an NFT worth $10, and if you're lucky, you might get a high-value NFT worth $500.

Step 4: Invite Friends

The Banana Game clearly benefits from playing with multiple accounts, so if you can, try to create multiple accounts using cloud phones or emulators like LDPlayer.

The strategy here is to focus on inviting secondary accounts while concentrating resources on the main account (ensure IP isolation when using multiple accounts).

• For the first 5 invites, you can receive 1 banana for each invite;
• From the 6th to the 15th invite, you can earn 1 banana for every 2 invites;
• For reaching 30, 50, and 100 invites, you will receive a reward of 5 bananas each time;
• For reaching 200, 500, 1000, 2000, and 5,000 invites, you will earn 10 bananas for each invite;

2. Why Focus on Playing The Banana Game? How Does It Differ from Hamster Combat and Pixelverse?

(1) Why Focus on Playing The Banana Game?

Currently, Hamster Combat has the most users on TON, with an official announcement in June stating there are already 47.6 million active users, and many third-party statistics indicate that the user count has reached 60 million.

If Hamster Combat releases an airdrop in August, it may face a strict witch hunt review like Pixelverse, and the number of users receiving airdrops could be around 50 million. Assuming 50 million users, if each user receives a $10 airdrop, Hamster Combat could face at least $500 million in sell pressure, with an FDV of at least $800 million to avoid a collapse. Such a high FDV can only be supported by Binance. Alternatively, Hamster Combat may implement a lock-up mechanism to gradually release tokens to stabilize its market cap.

The first game project on the TON ecosystem, Notcoin, reached a maximum FDV of $2 billion, with a current FDV of $1.35 billion. As a clone, it may be challenging for Hamster Combat to reach a $2 billion FDV in a short time.

If Hamster Combat's FDV does not reach $2 billion, many users may only receive $5-$15 in airdrops. Entering Hamster Combat now is clearly too late.

Pixelverse, which was the hottest in June, has already released its airdrop. In August, The Banana Game is likely the first opportunity for us to enter, and the market seems to be aware of this issue, as Decrypt reported: The Banana Game surpassed 1 million users in just 72 hours. https://decrypt.co/242349/ton-game-banana-hits-1m-users-in-72-hours

Today marks the 4th day since its launch, and anyone can still join to mine, so don't miss out. High rarity NFTs can be obtained for free in the game and sold.

(2) What Innovations Does The Banana Game Offer Compared to Other Games from a User Perspective?

So far, there are hundreds of games in the TON ecosystem, many of which are highly homogeneous, so we won't analyze them all. Some representative games are shown below:

Some of the above projects are free, while others require investment. Investment projects may not necessarily break even in the current market environment, so please be cautious of risks.

From a player's perspective, we need to choose projects that have fewer users, require less investment, are newly launched, and allow assets to be traded and realized before the token launch.

3. The Banana Game Project Background and How to Maximize Benefits

The Banana Game is the first game supported by CARV in the Ton ecosystem, backed by the Strong and Doxxed teams, which have developed various products for over 2 years.

In addition to receiving native currency airdrops, users of The Banana Game can also receive CARV platform airdrops in the future. Besides node airdrops, the platform also has its own tasks, which you can refer to: https://protocol.carv.io/airdrop

About CARV

CARV is the largest modular data layer in the gaming and AI fields, primarily addressing the most challenging data usage and sharing methods in AI, allowing everyone to own, control, and profit from their personal data.

Currently, CARV has developed 3 key products:

• CARV Protocol: A modular data layer for gaming and AI, https://protocol.carv.io/airdrop
• CARV Play: An AI-driven super application for player analytics, social interaction, and game discovery, https://play.carv.io
• CARV AI Agent: A personalized gaming companion

CARV's flagship game, CARV Play, integrates with over 790 web2 and web3 games and partners with major blockchains like Linea, BNB Chain, zkSync, and Ronin, serving over 2.7 million gamers.

Like many blockchains, to quickly scale and stabilize the network, CARV has introduced validator nodes to review the results of each protocol layer. Node rewards will initially be distributed in the form of $veCARV, which is a staked version of the CARV token.

CARV nodes are operated by Animoca Brands, ensuring network uptime and robustness. This also allows Animoca Brands and its 400+ gaming and metaverse companies to participate in CARV's governance voting system—Infinite Play.

Due to the platform's strong integration capabilities, CARV has secured $50 million in funding from top funds and ecosystems, including Vertex Ventures (Temasek), ConsenSys (developer of Metamask), Tribe Capital, IOSG Ventures, Animoca Brands, HashKey Capital, Infinity Ventures Crypto, and MARBELX.
That concludes all the content about The Banana Game.

In the crypto space, we often aim for financial success, and many high-investment projects may pose risks we cannot afford. At this time, we need to choose projects with fewer users, lower investments, that are newly launched, and where assets can be traded and realized before the token launch.

The Banana Game requires zero investment, and in addition to receiving native and platform currency airdrops, NFTs can be directly realized in the secondary market before the token launch. It has only been 4 days since its launch, fitting the criteria of fewer users, lower investment, and tradable assets.
Each airdrop can be operated with multiple accounts. Currently, I am using a multi-account tool called MorLogin fingerprint browser, which has been tested for security:

Regarding wallet plugins, MoreLogin has implemented multiple layers of encryption, ensuring that even if someone maliciously accesses your computer and takes your wallet plugin files, they cannot crack it. This is what I have been using, as other Chrome-based browsers do not provide data encryption.
