P.S. Let me say right away, if you’re not new here and already know what Telegram gifts are, just scroll down. The introduction is only for newcomers.

Gifts in Telegram are a controversial topic.Some see them as a new way to make money, while others believe it’s just a clever move by Telegram to profit from transaction fees.

So, what is it really: an opportunity or a waste of time? Let’s figure out how it works and how much you can earn from it.Since January 1, Telegram has officially allowed turning gifts into NFTs. This means that your virtual gifts can now become full-fledged assets that can be sold, exchanged, or kept as part of a collection.

Gifts in Telegram are a controversial topic. Some see them as a new way to make money, while others believe it’s just a clever move by Telegram to profit from transaction fees.

So, what is it really: an opportunity or a waste of time? Let’s figure out how it works and how much you can earn from it.

What are Telegram Gifts?

Telegram gifts are virtual items that users can send to each other. The uniqueness of these gifts lies in the fact that they can be converted into NFTs.

For those unfamiliar, an NFT (Non-Fungible Token) is a unique digital asset that provides ownership rights to a specific image, in this case, on the Telegram platform. Gifts were launched on October 5, and since then, a wide variety of themes have emerged: from lollipops and flowers to Halloween pumpkins, caps, and the famous Pepe frogs.

During the holiday season, Telegram users exchanged over 20 million gifts, making them a potential contender for the largest NFT collection. The uniqueness of these gifts lies precisely in their ability to be turned into NFTs and sold on various marketplaces. The idea sounds simple: collect, sell, and earn.

However, the reality turned out to be more complicated. So far, the functionality is limited to sending gifts to friends and speculating on their value.

What Types of Gifts Exist?

Telegram gifts are divided into convertible and non-convertible:

• Convertible gifts can be turned into NFTs and sold on marketplaces.

• Non-convertible gifts are just images without NFT status. They cannot be sold or transferred — only exchanged for Stars at the purchase price minus a commission.

So how can you make money from this?

So let’s skip the boring stuff for the boring investors. We’re here in the crypto market, guys. Everything should be fast and exciting. Let’s get straight to it — how can you make money from this, after all, that’s why we’re all here. I’ll be sharing facts and tips based solely on my personal experience. To start, I’ll tell you my story in this field so you understand who I am and why I’m giving you advice.

How I got started.

I started right after the first gifts could be turned into NFTs. At that moment, the market was very unstable and unclear. Prices were jumping every hour, and the last gifts were being bought up in a panic. People simply didn’t understand what it was and how much it would be worth in the future, but I immediately saw the potential in it. The first thing I started with was reselling gifts on the OTC market. I had almost no budget, so I began with regular reselling, following the first law of the market — buy low, sell high.

In those days, I was able to make up to $1000 a day in profit. AND THIS WAS WITH A $100 INVESTMENT! You might think this is nonsense, but no. As I mentioned earlier, the market was extremely unstable. Since this feature was added primarily to the messenger, a large number of people who had received gifts at some point were interested in making a profit from them. But they didn’t even know what crypto was. People were asking for ridiculously low amounts, and it was easy to find an offer for $2, buy the gift, and immediately sell it for $200. The market was fluctuating so much, and you could make huge profits from it. But later, Tonnel changed the game… But we’ll talk about that later. It’s a pity that I can’t find screenshots from that time now, but trust me, it was very exciting. You can check the OTC chats from those dates, and you’ll be shocked by the price jumps, I guarantee it.

Once I had some budget, I stopped trading in chats and entered the bigger game. I started buying gifts right at the launch. Let’s skip all the boring details, but briefly, even with the worst collections, I was getting at least 5X returns.

Of course, the biggest profits came from Plush Pepe. I managed to buy 32 pieces at launch. Do you know the result?

These are just 3 of my NFTs. You can multiply the average price by 32 and see how much I made. The investment for one Plush Pepe was about $50. These are just insane returns.

Alright, it’s clear with me, I’ve shown you that you can make money from this, and I’m doing it successfully, but…

So how can you do this?

Listen, the market has become much calmer compared to when I first entered it. You might say that this is bad and that you can’t make quick gains anymore. But first of all, I disagree with you — quick gains are still possible, and secondly, this is actually much better. The less the market fluctuates, the less you risk. This allows you to make good returns day by day. Of course, not everything happens right away. Don’t forget, there’s no “Money” button. At first, it’s very likely that in the first week or two, you’ll mostly break even, not making much profit or maybe losing a little. This is a short adaptation period, and the more people give up at this stage, the more the rest will gain. We’re not the type of people who are afraid of failure, right?

NFTs are just like any other market. Before you start making money, you need to understand the prices and how it works. Your best assistant in this is the Tonnel Relayer Bot. It’s a marketplace on Telegram that allows you to buy and sell gifts. I’ll tell you about its other features later.

Tonnel Relayer Bot introduced the rules to the game. It established a specific floor price for the gifts. This is the minimum price below which users can’t sell them. This was done to prevent the price from crashing and to make the market more stable, assuring you that you won’t lose your money the next day. As of today, the bot has 700,000 users, and daily top-ups have reached 700,000$ per day.

I think each of you will be able to figure out how to top up, connect a wallet, or sell gifts there on your own. We’ll skip this boring stuff. In the worst case, you can read this information directly in the bot; it’s fully explained for new users.

The easiest way for you to get started is by looking for gifts cheaper than the Floor price on Tonnel and selling them for a bit more. Remember this key point: from this moment on, Tonnel is your best friend, your wife, and your most loyal ally. It will help you do everything you can in this industry. It will help you not lose money, but only make it. You can easily find gifts cheaper than the Floor price at the auction. This feature is also provided by Tonnel.

I don’t recommend you start buying anything right away. For the first 2–3 days, observe the auctions that are taking place. Study how users are investing and which gifts they are buying and for how much. This will help you understand how the market works. Remember this!

The price of a gift is determined by the main criteria: the rarity of the model (shown in % — the lower the %, the more expensive the gift), the rarity of the background, the symbol, and its number. Identical gift numbers are valued, and the first 10 numbers of each gift are especially valuable. Gifts with a black background are highly prized. Also, if the model of your gift matches the background, it will be worth more. You can check the floor price of each gift on Tonnel. Also, remember this very important thing — the smaller the supply of a gift at launch, the more expensive it will be on the market. Gifts are still being released every month, sometimes even more frequently. If you see a gift with a supply of less than 20,000 — buy it without hesitation. This will give you insane returns.

Well, I’ve told you the basics. Let’s go through an example on the auction, and then we’ll move on to other methods. For example, we see an auction for a cigar…

We can see that the current highest bid is 5.63 TON, and we can place a minimum bid of 5.91 TON. The gift is decent. We notice a low number, as well as the fact that the model matches the background color.

Then, we filter this gift by its model. After all, the model is the main factor in determining the price of the gift. The other factors add to the value, but the factor that initially shapes the price is the model itself.

We can see that the Floor price for this model is 7.15 TON. This is the cheapest model at the moment, while ours will cost no less than 9 TON because the background perfectly matches the model.

What does this mean?

It means that we can place a bid of 6 TON and make at least 2 TON in profit in just 20 minutes, simply by playing the market. Please note, this is the first offer I clicked on online while writing this article. Imagine how many profitable offers pass through the auction every day. You can make hundreds of times your investment on them. With active participation, this is at least $500 a day.

Okay, we’ve covered auctions and reselling. The key is just to look for profitable offers, and you don’t even need to fully understand the prices. Just scroll through the auctions for 2–3 hours a day, and you’ll find at least 10 profitable auctions. You’ll win 2–3 of them.

If you have a large budget

(if you don’t, don’t rush to close the article, I’ll also tell you what to do, just wait a bit)

The most profitable method for you is to set up auto-buying offers on Tonnel. It will work fully automatically; all you need to do is top up your balance, set a price below the floor price of the gifts, and catch the profitable offers.

The system does everything for you; you just set up the queries and wait for someone to post gifts. As soon as you buy them, you list them for sale at the floor price. There’s a large turnover with small gains, and it’s almost impossible to lose money. Consistently, this can also generate significant profit. Almost nothing is required from you — just an investment and checking the app once an hour to check the gifts and list them for sale.

A completely passive income.

Tonnel is the only platform in the world that offers the possibility of gift staking. In short, users upload gifts to staking, and investors boost a specific gift, after which the total amount of boosts is distributed among the users. More boosts = more money. More gifts = more money. The profits may not be huge, but they are completely passive. You’re not taking any risks, and you can withdraw the gifts at any time. The only thing is that not all gifts are accepted for staking — only a specific list, which is regularly updated. (For traders: if a gift is added to the Staking list, its price instantly doubles at a minimum).

And finally, for those who don’t have a budget to start with.

Let’s start with the fact that the bigger the budget, the bigger the profit. The entry threshold to the game is around $30–50, and with that money, you can already start catching your first offers at the auction. But let’s imagine that you don’t have a single dollar, but you have ambition and desire. Specially for you, Tonnel holds hundreds of giveaways daily. You can simply win your first gifts for free and start your journey from there.

All you’ll need to do is press a button.

Conclusion

There are still a billion aspects where you can make money, and I’d love to tell you about them, but I don’t want to overwhelm you. My advice to you is simple — just launch Tonnel, start clicking, and gradually figure things out. Don’t invest right away. First, just observe how the app and the market work. After a week, you’ll start to understand things little by little, and you’ll be able to try making your first deals. This is a very promising niche where anyone can make money. It’s not hard, but don’t think of it as money falling from the sky. If you’re truly goal-oriented and put in the effort, you’ll start making profits within a couple of weeks. But if you’re just trying to win random auctions, you’ll lose your money.

The market eliminates the weak, remember that. If you face failures, don’t get discouraged. Keep this in mind :)
