Paws is a Telegram-based Mini App that allows users to earn points through gamified engagement, launched in October 2024. It gained over 20 million users within eight days and over 80 million shortly after. The app migrated from TON to Solana in March 2025, enhancing scalability, reducing fees, and enabling deeper integration within the DeFi ecosystem. Users can earn points by completing tasks, joining groups, and answering quizzes, which are converted into PAWS tokens that can be staked or used in the app's economy. Paws controls its growth cautiously, navigating regulatory challenges, while plans for features like an in-app marketplace, NFT rewards, and DeFi integrations suggest a broader vision for becoming a centralized Web3 platform. The PAWS token launched in March 2025, though initial volatility and communication issues raised community concerns. Despite these challenges, Paws lays the groundwork for a significant presence in the Web3 landscape.
