However, after completing the first season of the game on February 6, the project decided to move forward with a token release on BNB Chain, which is expected to take place on February 14, based on an X post earlier this week.
“Releasing TAPS tokens on BNB Chain will improve speed, security and accessibility, making TapSwap more attractive to players and investors,” the project said.

However, in the future, the game plans to transform from a click-to-money model and integrate skill-based gameplay.
