How to create a Telegram mining Mini App without code

Step 0: model one user for thirty days

Before choosing colors, simulate the most active legitimate user. Record the base production per hour, claim interval, capacity, each upgrade cost, each rate increase, task rewards, referral rewards and any withdrawable allocation. Run the model for thirty days and compare total production with total sinks and the funded reward budget.

Also model a normal user who returns once per day and a referral-heavy user. If one path creates dramatically more liability than the others, introduce caps, diminishing returns or a different kind of reward before anyone sees the promise.

• Base rate
• Offline capacity
• Claim interval
• Upgrade curve
• Task budget
• Referral budget
• Reward reserve
• Season or reset rule

Step 1: create the bot and product identity

1. Create the bot with @BotFather

   Choose a credible name and unique username.

2. Secure the token

   Connect it only to the trusted builder that will run the project.

3. Write the short promise

   Explain that this is a game, simulator or reward experience in one sentence.

4. Add recognizable media

   Complete the bot profile before sending traffic.

5. Choose the primary unit

   Give the production resource a name that does not imply guaranteed external value.

Step 2: connect Mini Empire and configure production

Create a Mini App project in Mini Empire, connect the BotFather token and select the mining experience. Configure the base production rate, storage or claim limit and the conditions that start or stop production. The interface should show the current rate, accumulated amount, capacity and next useful action without forcing the user to guess.

Elapsed time must be computed from trusted stored state rather than a client animation. Closing the Mini App, changing the device clock or tapping claim twice should not create extra units. Reopen the app after several intervals during testing and compare the credited amount with the model.

Step 3: build the upgrade curve and sinks

Start with upgrades whose effect is easy to understand: higher rate, more capacity or a temporary boost. Show the cost, current effect and next effect before purchase. Early upgrades can be frequent, but costs should rise faster than raw production if the economy needs to avoid unlimited inflation.

Add sinks that create choices rather than punishment. Collections, cosmetics, team contributions, season access and optional convenience can remove units while giving users a reason to care. A withdrawal fee should not be the only sink, because that makes the economy feel designed to block exits.

Step 4: add tasks and referrals after the core loop works

Tasks should introduce the community, teach a feature or create measurable campaign value. Verify Telegram membership where required and label external-link tasks honestly. Give each repeatable task a cooldown or reset window, and record completion so reopening the app cannot claim it again.

Referral rewards should wait for a qualified action by the invited user. Rewarding a bot start invites account farms and teaches users to optimize the bounty rather than the product. Show pending and qualified referrals separately and cap expensive rewards according to the campaign budget.

• Task objective
• Verification method
• Cooldown
• Reward asset
• Referral qualifying event
• Self-referral rejection
• Per-period cap

Step 5: choose the revenue and payout model

Use rewarded advertising only at moments where the user chooses a clear exchange. Telegram Stars are the required rail for digital goods sold inside Telegram mobile apps, so useful upgrades or subscriptions should follow the current Stars rules. Sponsorships and partner tasks can work when the audience matches the offer and the completion evidence is honest.

Decide which unit, if any, is withdrawable. Publish the minimum, funding source, queue behavior and limits. Keep the game resource separate from a funded reward balance unless the conversion rule is real, budgeted and visible. Test one tiny transfer end to end before enabling the withdrawal button for the cohort.

Step 6: run the production-readiness matrix

Step 7: launch small, then change one variable at a time

Start with users who resemble the intended audience and can describe where the loop becomes confusing. Measure first-session activation, first claim, first upgrade, next-day return, task completion and qualified referrals. Do not buy large traffic because the interface looks finished.

Change one major variable per cohort: the opening promise, claim interval, first-upgrade price or referral reward. Use broadcasts to explain material changes and preserve existing earned balances. Scale only when retention, reward cost and support load remain stable together.
