Toncoin Monster

We launched the functionality of auctions!

Now Toncoin Monster Bot allows you to create another type of bot: auction bots.

In a few clicks you can create your own bot for auctions in our constructor and start earning TONs.
We ourselves and a couple of our customers have already tested it. Everything worked perfectly.

The current version is primarily designed for selling NFTs, but you can also auction anything you want.

Feel free to ask any questions in the comments to this post.

Friends, @toncoin_monster_bot now has a "Pricing" section.
These are the prices for using our bot. It works on the freemium model. That is, the start is free, and we only take a commission on the turnover, when you have already started earning with our products.

We finally finished our payment system. Huge work, as a result of which we actually repeated the core of Cryptobot.

Now the development will go much faster, and our products will be much more convenient for users.

And most importantly, it will finally become a single ecosystem, where @tonometerbot will play its role.

May updates

We’re speeding up our development.

We have two important updates:

1. From now on your users don’t need to go to @tonometerbot to verify their wallet. Everything can be done inside your pre-sale bot in simplified interface and can be run by only one button. It works perfectly everywhere except TonKeeper on Android.
By the way, recommend your customers installing TON HUB. This wallet is much more stable. TonKeeper is unable to fix its bugs during six months. Now there will be significantly less obstacles for conversion in a purchase.

2. We’ve added a function of deleting bots from @Toncoin_Monster_Bot. A lot of people had their administration account clogged with test bots. Now it can be cleaned. Pay your attention: you can delete only if there were no sales in a bot. If there were even one, it can’t be deleted to avoid loosing purchases’ data.

If you have any ideas and proposals for the improvement of our platform - feel free to write it in comments.

We’ve Added Mail-Lists Functionality!

Dear friends, one more important update. Since now there is an option of mailing out users in your pre-sale bots.

Not simple mailing lists but with an option of segmentation by the size of users’ wallets.

Setting and mailing out is embodied through @tonometerbot interface. You can find more details here.

It’s implemented as a unified centre of mailing lists for all your bots that you create on MonsterBot platform + your followers in Tonometer itself.

Thus, mailing out in all your bots from one place simultaneously is significantly simplified.

Dear friends, try it and share your experience in comments. Also address all your propositions concerning improvement of Monster Bot’s work. We are looking through our users’ feedback very attentively.

Dear friends! Now we see that quite a few projects have already started selling their NFTs through our pre-sales bot.

Please share your experiences. What did you like/dislike? What is missing? What would you add?

In the nearest update:

— Referral system for your pre-sales (automatically sets and calculates commissions of your partners).

— Payment system. We don't charge a fee for our services yet. The payment system is in development (it will take a couple of weeks). Its chief distinguishing feature is that our NFT Mintosaurs can be used as an unlimited subscription. In the future, we will also launch a SaaS service to help using your NFTs as a subscription to your bots, private chats / channels and websites.

— Auction bot. Our bot is fully ready. Now we are connecting to administration through Monster Bot. The target date for commissioning time is 2 weeks.

— Lottery bot. First, we will test it in our Mintosaurs (in about 2 weeks) and it will take 2 weeks to connect to the Monster Bot.

Why minting without pre-sales poses a great risk?

One can often hear that NFT projects don’t want to conduct pre-sales, since in their view it is more correct to immediately start selling with minting.

But they’re missing one pivotal point. A project is being prepared for 2-3 months (marketing, advertising, design, preparation take time) in order to try out for minting only once.

This increases the risks greatly. On the one hand, the NFT project may got the calculations wrong and the attracted audience simply will not demonstrate the level of demand as planned, which will lead to a collection’s price drop in the very first days of sales.

Similarly, one may underestimate the potential of a project and set low starting prices. As a result, the collection will be sold in a couple of minutes, secondary market prices will rocket but the project team itself will not receive a significant amount of funds needed to develop and maintain a high price level in the future. The risk of becoming a speculative day-fly project will grow.

Thus, pre-sales in several waves help to understand actual demand for the collection in the process of its creation. And early supporters get the opportunity to buy NFTs at a discount. In addition, they become more attached to the project and form the very core of the community essential for any NFT.

Hundreds of thousands of subscribers attracted by NFT projects in their social media accounts mean nothing until they start buying. Subscribers may be bots, irrelevant traffic, or just people with lack of well-being/ with low incomes gathered during the airdrops.

And only real sales, whether pre-sale or whitelist, can show the level of financial involvement of your audience.

One should not forget also about the coefficient of "loss of interest" of the audience. If the marketing campaign lasts 3-4 months, the initially attracted audience, which hasn’t got any product, will quickly get passionate without buying anything.

Look at tgstat.com for the ERR dynamics of any NFT Telegram channel in TON. You will see how quickly the audience loses interest. Similar trends can be seen not only in
NFT-field but in any niche (news, finance, technology, programming). A significant part of the rapidly attracted audience loses interest over time, unsubscribes or simply stops following the posts.

But if one of your subscribers bought something on the pre-sale, they are unlikely to lose interest. They will follow the project, discuss and support it.

So the issue remains: why should NFT projects deprive themselves of the opportunity to solve a whole bunch of tasks at once using the multi-stage presales approach?

It remains a mystery to us.

For what do we need pre-sales when marketplaces and mint do already exist?

We often hear this question, that is why we decided to give a centralised answer.

Let’s take as a reference point good old stock market. It already exists from the times of Dutch East India Company. It’s by the way 17th century. An incredible multitude of the ways of storage, verification and trading of securities were created during next 400 years. And even stocks disappeared and turned into computer numbers.

Nevertheless, the initial offering of companies’ stocks passes in that format of pre-sale. The bids from wishing to buy are collected, the amounts of allocation are assessed. Then it is distributed among buyers. And further it goes to a secondary market (the analogue of minting).

But the stock market is rather big and serious thing. Also there is a venture investing where people invest their money in a project and are then unable to quickly cash-out (sell).

The crowdfunding also exists. In cryptocurrencies there are ICO and IEO. This all are anyway - mechanics of good old pre-sale when only initial market with a discount exists that further grow into a full-fledged secondary market.

That is why we’re responding a question: “Are we afraid of the possibility that everybody suddenly stops conducting pre-sales and starts minting straightaway?” - No, we are not. We perfectly understand that this is the mechanics, which is demanded by dozens of projects despite the fact that minting is available.

Besides, the there is a so called Whitelist mechanics. When during a pre-sale not NFT is sold but the right to buy it first or to buy with a discount.

Our ecosystem is perfectly adopted for this and soon we’ll add the opportunity to sell places in whitelists. Although, with reservations it can be done now.

Our pre-sales bot itself and an ecosystem at whole are the right first step for projects gaining popularity. Then they smoothly move to marketplaces, conduct their minting and by this launch their secondary market.

And it is worth remembering that ICO market will soon be reborn in TON because many projects will start making their custom tokens. And a pre-sale of these tokens (ICO) can be conducted through our infrastructure as well.

It’ not only pre-sales bot functionality

We’d like to pay your attention to the fact that we present it’s not simply a bot for collecting money for NFTs. It is a full-fledged platform.

1. You can create different stages of your sales. With different price and amount of NFTs.

2. Verification of your buyers through Tonometer let you avoid a lot of troubles. For example, the users can easily move in Tonometer from v3 version of their wallet to v4. In case of losing access to their wallet they will be able to connect the same way another one. And the main thing — you as NFT-creator shouldn’t worry about it at all.

3. Your collection gets into Tonometer automatically. All your buyers’s NFTs will be displayed automatically in their Tonometer profiles. Watch an example of profile and its collection.

4. Automatic upload of your buyers’ wallets and the amount of bought NFTs in .csv format for further minting. It’s important that at any moment of time you can upload actual wallets of your buyers no matter have they “move” their wallet or not.
And finally the pricing of our bot. It works on freemium model. You can create and use it for free.

When your sale overpasses 1000 Toncoin we begin to charge 2% of the sum of sales for each 1000 Toncoin collected during your pre-sales.

For example, in case of 10 000 Toncoin raised, you’ll have to pay 200 Toncoin for using our bot.

Dear friends, we have finally launched our own platform for all NFTs, Telegram channels and bots creators based on TON.

It’s called Toncoin Monster.

The logic of the name is simple: we create a platform and services on its base that are working on TON blockchain and using Toncoin for payments.

And “Monster” because this bot will become the only place for entry and administration for dozens of our services under development. It is going to be a real product-monster that will be able to solve hundreds of tasks for all users who create their projects in Telegram and TON.

The link to our bot: @Toncoin_Monster_Bot

As for the 1st of April, the first project on this platform is the functionality of bots-pre-sales of NFTs. Everyone can create their personal bot on the base of our functionality and use it for pre-sales of their NFT-projects. It will have the same functionality as our pre-sales bot @mintosaurs_bot.

Please, pay attention that the bot will be connected to the functionality of Tonometer (@tonometerbot) and pre-sale buyer will be able to see at once his purchase in their Tonometer profile. The creation of your collection’s card in Tonometer goes automatically through the bot.

Further we will be posting in this channel the updates of our services, answer your questions in comments and chat with our users.

If you have any questions or necessity of technical support, feel free to write to @ton_telegrambot.
