PiP World, a web3 gaming and EdTech ecosystem, has unveiled its latest mini-game, 'Gold Rush,' on Telegram. This tap-to-earn game introduces players to the world of investing through engaging gameplay and offers them the opportunity to compete for over $100,000 in prizes. Developed by AAA game company PiP World, with the backing of Exinity—a global wealth management and fintech firm—Gold Rush distinguishes itself from similar Telegram mini-games by combining entertainment with financial education.
Learn, Play, Earn: Gold Rush
Gold Rush is launching a companion game on Telegram, marking a prelude to PiP World’s main game (PiP Trader) set for release in Q4 2024. Unlike other casual games, Gold Rush offers more depth, simulating the thrill of crypto trading while educating players on financial markets.
The gameplay allows players to progress through different career ranks, from interns to hedge fund owners, by tapping to earn in-game currency. Players strategically grow their portfolio through boosts, completing quests, unlocking special items, and referring friends. This unique game experience is designed to engage users in a fun way while teaching the foundations of financial literacy and market strategies.
PiP World’s CEO Saad Naja, commented: “We aim to enable people across the world’s largest platforms to make the best possible financial decisions earlier in life, with all they have at their disposal (leisure time, money and skills) — in a familiar low-pressure environment — will have a compound effect on their future.”

A standout aspect of Gold Rush is the opportunity for players to earn rewards in cryptocurrency. Players can tap for USDT, TON, and a new in-game currency (not yet disclosed). A much-anticipated feature, the ‘FlashDrop,’ is expected to launch soon, offering players the chance to race each day for a share of a $100,000 prize pool, with the rewards paid out in TON directly to their wallets.
The game’s innovative prize system sets it apart from other Telegram games, such as Hamster Kombat and Catizen. In addition to the daily rewards, PiP World has hinted at a skill-based airdrop event involving the $PiPS token. Early Gold Rush players will have the chance to convert some of their in-game earnings into $PiPS, providing an advantage in future leaderboard rankings within the broader PiP World ecosystem.
“Our mission is to transform how people learn about financial markets into a fun, rewarding, and engaging daily habit. With PiP Gold Rush we are giving Telegram gamers a first taste of what’s to come with our flagship game launching in Q4 of 2024. This is not just about building a community - it is about creating a foundation where rewards grow exponentially in both knowledge and earnings,” added Saad Naja.

In the coming weeks, PiP World plans to introduce additional features to Gold Rush that will further integrate financial education into the gameplay. One of the upcoming updates, the AI-powered Scenario Calendar, will present players with random financial events, such as geopolitical issues or changes in market regulations. Players will have to react to these events to maximize their profits, simulating real-world market dynamics.
Another key update, the Trade Wars feature, will act as a direct market simulator. This will allow players to trade on live market pricing, giving them a realistic taste of managing crypto and stock portfolios. These educational features aim to bridge the gap between gaming and actual trading, making Gold Rush not just a game but a tool for learning how to navigate financial markets.

With the launch of Gold Rushon Telegram, PiP World is aiming to capture a significant share of the 'mid-core' gaming market, which consists of games more complex than casual ones but not as demanding as console or PC titles. The platform's move into this space follows its recent acquisition of StockRise on Roblox, a game with over 7.1 million players that also focuses on financial learning.
PiP World’s unique positioning within the mid-core gaming segment allows it to target a growing market of users looking for more strategic and educational games. With the potential to reach millions of players, Gold Rush represents a critical step in the company’s broader mission to gamify financial literacy and create a rewarding, engaging experience for players of all levels.
The Open Network (TON) Ecosystem Q1 2024
Gold Rush is available for players aged 16 and older (18+ to earn rewards) via Telegram. For those eager to start earning passive income and preparing for the upcoming PiP Trader launch in 2024, the game is accessible through the official Gold Rush Telegram game link.
