Deposits
How to top up wBarrel with crypto. Networks and assets, minimums, the shared 0x address, timing, and the mistakes that lose coins.
On this page
A deposit turns crypto into wBarrel (🛢️) on your game balance. This page explains which coins you can send, how long a deposit takes, and which mistakes cannot be undone. Please read the warnings before you send anything.
Networks and assets
The game supports five networks: TON, TRON, Ethereum, BNB Smart Chain and Solana. The game's operators switch each network on or off. The table below shows every network and asset with its minimum, and whether it is open right now.
- 1 USDT is credited as 1 🛢️, and 1 USDC as 1 🛢️.
- TON, TRX, ETH, BNB and SOL are credited at their market price in US dollars, because 1 🛢️ = 1 USD. If the operators set a fixed rate for a coin, that rate is used instead, and the table shows it.
- The price is the one in force when your deposit is processed, not when you sent it.
- USDC is accepted only on Solana. DOGE cannot be deposited.
- There is no deposit fee and no maximum. You pay only the network fee of your own wallet or exchange.
Deposits are made only in crypto. There is no card, bank or Telegram Stars payment.
How to deposit
- Open Profile and tap Deposit.
- Choose a network. A network that is switched off is grey and marked "Temporarily unavailable".
- Choose an asset and check its minimum.
- Tap Continue. The app shows your address and a QR code.
- Tap Copy address and paste the address into your wallet or exchange.
- Choose the amount in your wallet or exchange and send. There is no amount to enter in the app.
Your address for a network stays the same, and you can use it for as many deposits as you like. No memo, tag or comment is needed. Whoever sends to it, a wallet or an exchange, the coins are credited to you.
If the screen says "Deposits are not open yet. You can play with your welcome bonus in the meantime.", deposits are closed on every network for now. Do not send anything to an address you received earlier.
Before you send
Caution
Send only an asset from the list, on the network you chose in the app. Coins sent on another network, or tokens that are not in the list, are not detected and are lost. A transfer to a wrong address or over a wrong network cannot be reversed.
- Other tokens. Only the listed assets count. Another token, even one called "USDT" from a different contract, is ignored.
- Other chains. Chains that are not in the list (for example Polygon, Arbitrum or Base) are not watched. Coins sent there to your 0x address are lost.
- Smart contracts. Send ETH and BNB straight from a wallet or an exchange. ETH or BNB moved by a smart contract (a DeFi app, a bridge, a smart wallet, some exchanges) is not detected and is not credited. The same is true for TRX moved by a smart contract on TRON. USDT is detected whoever sends it.
- Only open networks. Send only on a network the app shows as available right now.
- Taking money out. While withdrawals are switched off, a deposit cannot be taken out of the game. See Withdrawals.
One address for Ethereum and BNB Smart Chain
Ethereum and BNB Smart Chain share one 0x address. ETH and USDT (ERC-20) on Ethereum, and BNB and USDT (BEP-20) on BNB Smart Chain, all go to that address.
Each transfer is credited on the network it really used, with that network's minimum. The minimums differ: USDT on Ethereum needs at least 10 USDT, while USDT on BNB Smart Chain needs 1 USDT. A USDT transfer on Ethereum below 10 USDT is not credited. Check the network in your wallet before you confirm.
Minimums
Every asset has a minimum on each network. It is shown on the asset card and in the table above.
- A transfer below the minimum is not credited, and no message is sent.
- Each transfer is judged on its own. Two small transfers are not added together.
- Exactly the minimum is credited.
- The minimum applies to what arrives at your address. If your exchange takes its withdrawal fee from the amount, send enough to stay above the minimum after that fee.
How long it takes
There is no "pending" stage in the app. The first sign of a deposit is the credit itself. These times are approximate and depend on the network:
| Network | Usually credited after |
|---|---|
| TON | a few minutes |
| TRON | about 1 minute |
| Ethereum | about 15 to 20 minutes |
| BNB Smart Chain | less than a minute |
| Solana | a few minutes |
Tip
On Solana and TON, open your address in the app (tap Continue) shortly before you send. This helps the game find your deposit faster.
Deposits are credited at any time, weekends included.
If an asset card says "No rate right now: a deposit waits and is credited once the rate is back", the price of that asset is missing for now. A deposit of it is not lost: it waits and is credited automatically once a price is back, at that price.
After the credit
- Your balance in Profile grows.
- History shows a line "Deposit" with the amount in 🛢️.
- The bot sends "💰 Deposit credited" with the coins and the wBarrel you got, if the bot can message you and you have not turned off "Deposits" in Notifications. This message can sometimes be missing. Your balance and History are what count.
If a deposit does not arrive, write to us as described on the Support page. Give the network, the asset and the transaction hash. We cannot promise to recover coins sent against the rules on this page.
