Mine POO Telegram shitcoin surges from 17k to 96k miners

Mine POO: Miners jump from 17,000 to 96,000 with no listing date

A Telegram-based application distributing tokens for mining virtual poop surged from 17,000 to nearly 96,000 participants within hours. Named Mine POO and operating via the TON wallet, it kept its listing pending the end of the launch phase, lacking a confirmed public date but hooking users with promises of early wealth. The best metric for its economy wasn't epic narratives, but data circulating among those accumulating balances: 16 million POO were worth less than one euro.

What is Mine POO and why compare it to Notcoin?

The project is a Telegram mini-app in beta where users "mine" POO through daily actions: tasks, inviting others, and upgrading a supposed extraction system. Its model was sold as a copy of Notcoin: the Telegram coin scheduled for release on the 20th that, according to promoters, would eventually hit futures markets. Enthusiasts trinc a linear thesis: if Notcoin succeeds, a viral copycat with a ridiculous image will ride the wave, and early entrants will take the biggest slice.

Comparisons with Pepe, the most celebrated memecoin of recent cycles, appeared in every message. Being among the first fewer than 30,000 participants was marketed as a unique window: once the app reached millions, that advantage would vanish. The beta phase was also presented as a short-term opportunity, where joining that week meant mining at a much faster rate and securing privileges for the final launch.

From 17,000 to 96,000 miners: the curve fueling the frenzy

The numbers themselves fueled the sense of urgency. Initially, there were 17,000 players at launch. Then, a jump to 26,000 in just twelve hours, growth exceeding 100% celebrated as proof of something real behind it. By the next morning, the count was 40,950; hours later, it hit 96,000, with talk of storming 100,000.

With such pogre, what mattered was the next minute, not analysis. The referral dynamic—where each participant pushes others to accelerate their own extraction—explains better than any financial argument why the census doubled without anyone asking what backed the token. Growth was the product.

The airdrop bait: medals, presale, and 20% of mined amount

Beta conditions were shared in writing. Upon completion, 20% of mined POO would be credited to the final launch balance; completed tasks and invitations would remain, but upgrades would reset. Each participant would also receive a beta medal whose level depended on how much they had mined, increasing their token allocation in the airdrop and presale.

This created a call effect: users weren't just mining a coin, they were buying seniority. Latecomers would get less reward for the same effort. The waitlist became a race, and those arriving with an invitation link sold time. Listing remained contingent on the launch phase ending and mined points being counted, with no fixed public date.

The 0.07 TON wall: time to connect the wallet

The first hurdle came with claiming tokens. An official notice stated only 28% of participants had connected their wallet, a mandatory requirement to claim, delaying the process by 48 hours. During this period, staking rewards would continue to accumulate.

Here the tone changed. Connecting the TON wallet inside Telegram stopped being an abstract step and acquired a price: a 0.07 TON commission to move coins. For those who had been mining for weeks, the question shifted from how much they would earn to how much it would cost to check. Several calculated that the toll could exceed the loot itself.

16 million POO for less than one euro

When it came time to value the balance, the awakening was abrupt. Those holding 16 million POO doubted whether paying the commission was worthwhile, and threads calculated that millions of POO would exchange for less than one euro. Another person, with three million, fantasized about a mansion in Girona; the lot was worthless. In the presale, buyers spoke of a theoretical x6 return, a multiplication with no market to sell into.

Vocabulary shifted in hours: from "massive project with millions of players" and "hectare" to "outright scam" and "waste of time." A reflection of life itself, someone summarized. Part of the group also warned that mentions of a future listing remained vague, with no confirmed exchange or date.

There was also folklore. Among promoters circulated a founding story claiming discovering the project was a revelation forcing people to see things "with the third eye," and celebration plans included booking a luxury hotel exclusively for early adopters. With the public beta closed and claims delayed, the lingering question isn't how much the token will be worth, but how many of those 96,000 miners are willing to pay 0.07 TON to find out.
