In this article we will explore what Netizen is, why it matters to the internet, why it matters to you and what you can do with Netizen in the coming months and how YOU can start farming the airdrop for the most important gamification project on the market.
What is Netizen?
Netizen is a multi-chain and platform tool that gamifies the internet.
Netizen does gamification. So let’s start there.
Gamification is simple. Once we’ve decided to do something in our lives, whatever that may be, it is proven that if we play while doing it, we will do it better. It is a gift from nature. Shaped through millions of years of evolution. Every human on earth is born with it. And with the right tools we can use this to improve our lives in all sorts of ways. This is where Netizen comes in.
We’ve built tools that can be used by anyone and that are specifically designed to facilitate the gamification of human endeavors — that is building reward pathways for the things we all do everyday. Whatever they may be. Education, skill building, networking, building products, offering services, marketing, creative work, you name it — Netizen can gamify it. We’re spreading the reach of these tools across the internet and serving them through a unified platform called Netizen. The internet as a game.
Netizen brings the power of gamification to two types of players
- The user (also called Netizens): Users can connect to Netizen and explore the various gamified projects and events. Users are at the heart of Netizen and therefore they can not only use Netizen for free, but they are rewarded for engaging and contributing to the platform.
- The Patron: Patrons are projects, callers, companies, communities, NGOs, institutions or even users themselves that subscribe to Netizen and use the tools provided to gamify and achieve their goals.
We have spent years developing and the better part of 2023 putting our gamification tools to work in the field. It’s finally almost time to bring Netizen, our games and a new level of satisfaction and reward to the world.
With the release of this article we are set to begin our “90 Days of Raids” during which we will pre-game with Telegram based Raids, or games, leading into the gamification of blockchain activity with the release of the Netizen web platform. The purpose of these 90 days of games with us is to showcase exactly what Netizen can do, not just for ourselves, but for every project, community, and company out there.
From there, we plan to unleash our first gamified “Battle of the Influencers” that will let KOL’s, callers, and influencers compete for supremacy solely based off of the power and prosperity of their followings. During these 90 days we will also be holding several funding opportunities for different types of investors leading into the launch of our token — in which the winners of all of the games over the next 90 days will receive airdrops of as prizes.
Come join the fun. Join our Telegram to start.
Where we are now and where are we going?
Although the application of Netizen is virtually endless, we started with Web3. For many reasons each deserving of their own article. To put it simply, Web3 has the right tech to build and offer Netizen at scale. Also of course, the user base in Web3 is audacious enough to embrace and benefit first from emerging technologies. Making it the perfect springboard for Netizen.
After proving that gamification can be offered as a service with our Telegram Gamification App (or TGA which you should definitely go check out here) last year, we’ve now expanded into a decentralized application that can be used on a web browser. This dApp is connected to the Telegram app. It is an expansion. We’ve built a bridge to an entirely new interface. In much the same way we will continue to bridge Netizen to many other websites and platforms.
The Netizen web platform opens Netizen up to an ever broader user base and gives us more powerful capabilities for gamification.
With this, we’re going to start by showing how we can gamify various blockchains actions into a single game. Netizen users will simply connect a compatible wallet to the web platform and they can immediately start earning Netizen points.
From there they will be shown a list of contests happening on multiple blockchains (Airdrops, etc.). These constitute Actions users can do to earn Netizen points. All the user has to do is choose which of these Actions they want to do first and start climbing the leaderboards!
The leaderboards are displayed on the web platform as well as their start and end dates. At the end of every Raid, rewards are distributed to users according to score and other mechanics
And, since these blockchain contests often offer airdrops or rewards of their own for participation, Netizens can earn rewards twice for the same Action! A concept we will also make use of when we branch out to other social networks and applications that offer their own rewards or loyalty programs.
90 Days Of Raids — The Prologue Games
As mentioned before, this 90 day campaign of games serves as our way of showcasing to the world what Netizen, that is the gamification tech behind Netizen, can do. As such the first Raid will take an intellectual approach to showing an EXAMPLE of how a Telegram chat can be gamified.
Anything we do here can be customised FOR ABSOLUTELY ANYTHING, ANYONE, ANYWHERE!
This week begins “The Prologue” campaign of our 90 days, with the first Raid “Game of Games” — a word based game — that will see 9 winners sharing $500 in USDT AND equal value winnings in our token at launch.

In our game, every action counts towards your XP haul. Let’s dive into the exciting additional rules:
- Check-in Action
- Keep the XP multiplier rolling by checking in on Telegram with “GM,” “Gm,” or “gm” once every 24 hours. Your dedication pays off with a multiplier boost that increases for each consecutive day. But beware, miss a day without a PASS card, and your streak resets to zero! PASS cards, earned as bonuses, can save your streak from a reset with one-time use.
- Bonus: Chance for XP boost or PASS card with every check-in!

3. Raid Rewards
- Brace yourself for Raid bonuses! At the end of a Raid, a random Telegram message brings you a prize. Short messages get a reroll for fairness. Plus, one lucky XP earned during the Raid triggers another bonus prize!
4. Beware the “Shame” Card
- Neglecting to like and retweet a tweet from the Gamemaster might earn you a “Shame” card. Collect three, and face a random penalty, from losing your multiplier streak to landing on the “Wall of Shame.”
5. Honoring Dedication
- Players with the highest consecutive check-in actions snag a bonus prize. In case of a tie, luck decides the winner!
6. Moderation Marvels
- XP rains down for those who lend a hand in moderating the game. Your efforts don’t go unnoticed!
