If you happen to be one of those people who usually try out earning platforms and new telegram mini-apps that seem promising, then ATF will certainly ring a bell. Reason being that, everywhere you scroll on social media at the moment, there is a high likelihood that you’d come across some posts about the telegram bot/mini-app.
Why am I saying this though? The reason is, I also got to know about ATF telegram mining bot on social media when I saw people flaunting payment proofs and due to the fact that, its not one of the numerous “fake task earning bots”, I decided to give it a try and after studying the Mini-App and all it claims to offer — which, for the most part, I’ve had to experience. I have a few things to say about it.
But for the sake of those who are yet to have a full grasp of what the said telegram bot is or what it offers. Let’s have a brief look at what the project is before we start dissecting some of the technicalities associated with it.
What is ATF?
The full meaning of the acronym doesn’t really make much sense to me but since the article isn’t just about me, I’ll still talk about it regardless. It stands for AI Trading Forex and it’s currently a project on the TON blockchain; meaning the token is swappable once received.
Since it’s a project built on TON, they have a Mini-App on telegram known as ATF that allows verified users mine and accumulate their token with a direct option to withdraw to a third party crypto wallets like TONKeeper, MyTON Wallet and some other TON based wallets. Therefore, it’s going really viral largely due to the fact that, users are readily allowed to earn and withdraw the tokens without much restrictions thus giving room for users who are after quick bucks.
Interesting part is, users are not even expected to do anything different. Onboard on the Bot using your telegram account, connect your wallet and start mining. There are other ways of increasing both your mining rate and the overall ATF token and we will talk briefly on that in the next section.
What Does It Offer?
Like I said, it’s a mining project and if you’ve been on telegram for a while, you know this is not the first crypto project on the social messaging platform. We’ve had numerous projects get built on the platform — some turned out to be huge success, others turned out to be scam while others outrightly wasted the time of their community members.
Hence, telegram isn’t alien to the rise and fall of crypto projects even though, this openness has led to myriad of fraudulent projects and scams. ATF seems to be a breath of fresh air for most people at the moment.
To cut the long story short, it has a few other features such as;
Referral Program
ATF rewards referrers with 100 ATF tokens per referral and also, each active referral increases one’s mining rate. So if your referrals are active, you earn a percentage of whatever they mine and when you claim the bonus and hold it i.e. leave it in your balance, your mining rate increases as well as your overall earnings.
It’s the main factor pushing most people to massively promote the project on social media. Having a large referral team means, more crypto.
Social Tasks
On the Mini-App, there is also a task section where users can access some of their social tasks. Completion of the tasks also increases overall balance because for each one you complete, you will be allowed to claim a certain amount or ATF coin which adds up to the total crypto you’re holding.
Personally, I am not a fan of social tasks because I’m usually super conscious of the contents that appear on my feed on the various social media platforms.
Therefore, I don’t subscribe to joining telegram channels or following any page I’m not deeply interested in to avoid flooding my feed with unwanted contents.
However, completion of tasks could help in increasing your balance on the Mini-App if you’re not really able to build a team.
How to Complete ATF Verification
I know most of you reading this article already know how to onboard. I mean, as long as you have telegram, the sign up process is pretty much seamless.
One area some users encounter issues is the KYC or Verification. My account was flagged for suspicious activities after I made first withdrawal and they asked me to complete my verification. Prior to sign up, I was told the KYC was optional.
Then, on the Verification page, they asked me to make a video with a piece of paper showing ATF boldly written including, my Telegram ID and username plus signature and date.
I wrote everything on a plain shit of paper, below is a sample for the sake of guidance;
Then I made a video with the piece of paper on my right hand boldly showing the letters and said, “I am not a Robot” twice for them to hear it clearly lol. You’re not to say it twice though, I just did in case they didn’t hear the first one cause I’m not the type to shout.
After recording the video, I sent it to the direct message of their administrator. Initially I sent it to the wrong place until I got the right link to their administrator’s inbox.
You can access it by searching for this username on telegram – ATF_Verification
Send the video to the account, then send your TGID (numerical) alone as a separate message to the account as well.
Once the verification specialist sees it, he or she would react with a heart emoji to it and then you wait for the verification to be completed.
At the time of making this publication, they’re yet to fully verify my account. But I’m unfazed, just submit the right information and wait for approval. It takes a while and it seems to be done accordingly.
Cons
ATF telegram mining has quite a number of downsides or areas that may not really sit right with you especially if you’re just getting to know about it from this article;
1. It’s referral based.
The project is actually heavily referral based, meaning if you don’t have the means to build an active team i.e. a group of people who would continue mining on a daily basis under you, then it may take a while for you to earn anything tangible from the project. The mining rate for a user who has no referral whatsoever is poor and apart from mining and completing a few less rewarding tasks, there isn’t really much to be done on the Mini-App.
Therefore, if you can’t refer and also not cut out for the prolonged mining and tasks completion, then it’s not for you.
2. The Verification Trap
Prior to few days ago, verification was entirely optional. But along the line, maybe to prevent people from massively withdrawing, they introduced the VERIFICATION. I strongly believe it was introduced to stall withdrawals and honestly, the verification process is quite stressful. I almost abandoned my account when they froze my withdrawal asking me to verify.
So if you’re not cut out for the withdrawal requirements, then there is really no point joining as you won’t be allowed to withdraw currently without completing that verification. I am sure not everyone will be comfortable recording their faces for an anonymous project in the name of verification.
3. Not Listed on Any exchange
You can only swap on your ton wallet. If you’re not so familiar with ton wallets like, Tonkeeper you may encounter issues.
Final Verdict
ATF Telegram Bot is Paying at the time of writing this article. However, the future of the project is uncertain especially since there is less publicly available information about the project founders and the team behind it.
It’s more like an anonymous project that could end up causing more harm than good to people who don’t do proper research before investing. Coupled with the fact that, it’s on telegram and we know how the platform is usually exploited by cybercriminals.
Therefore, I would suggest you limit your participation to just mining and trying to earn from their bot and not investing your money on their token as that could lead to severe financial losses.
