DeDust.io – TON DEX

🤔 Dear Diary...

For more than two years, our entire team has been doing what we do best — programming and design. We plan, develop, optimize, release, and then update the design multiple times.

Out of respect for your time and ours, we don’t announce every small improvement, and major events don’t happen that often.

Active users sometimes criticize us for this silence, pointing to other team that promise a DeFi revolution every week.

Recently, we started posting memes news on Twitter (follow us!), and now we want to launch stories on Telegram. But we need your help — boost our channel and invite your friends!

With love,
DeDust Team

🤔 Exchange interface updates

If you’re a frequent user of DeDust.io, you may have noticed some significant interface changes over the past few months.

While each of them taken separately is a very tiny step, together, they’ve transformed how users interact with our platform, making it more accessible for newcomers and more informative for seasoned DeFi-ers.

Let’s take a look at some of them together:

1. We added a new block to the main page of DeDust.io. It now features our token, $DUST: live price, a direct link to swap, essential information, and a link to more detailed stats. We’ve often been asked why we don’t display our native token on the homepage — now we do.

2. We created a Brand Kit for partners and anyone who loves our branding (and wants to showcase our adorable mascot). Find the link in the footer or click here if you can’t wait to see Sir Cubovich himself.

3. Completely revamped our pools page, adding an FAQ, essential pool/tokens information, an APR breakdown (organic and boosted), and exact boost finish times and dates.

4. Liquidity deposit and withdrawal pages are also redesigned and enriched with valuable information.

5. The most frequently used page—Swap—has also been significantly updated. Transaction parameters, error messages, favorites list… you better check it out yourself. It’s much better now!

All these tiny yet impactful updates were inspired by your feedback in comments, chats, DMs, and even at offline events. Thank you for helping us make DeDust.io better!

Sincerely,
Scaleton Team

🤔 Claim LP rewards from locked liquidity

For memecoin projects, locking liquidity is often a key step in building trust within the community. However, this approach has historically come with a tradeoff: it cuts off an important source of income—LP rewards—creating a conflicting motivation for founders. Without access to these rewards, the only way to generate revenue is by selling your own tokens, which increases sell pressure and raises concerns among your supporters.

We’ve solved this problem!

With our new locker contract, founders can now claim LP rewards credited to permanently locked LP tokens. Thanks to our partners at GasPump, this update is live, and all new tokens successfully deployed on DeDust.io will include claimable rewards on locked liquidity. This breakthrough offers long-term incentives for memecoin founders, aligning financial rewards with sustainable project growth.

Sincerely,
Scaleton Team

🤔 $MAJOR Listing on DeDust.io

The popular mini-app Major, which has gained 39 million users in just five months and has been mentioned multiple times by Pavel Durov on his personal channel, has officially launched its token. It will soon be available for trading on major platforms, including DeDust.io.

We’ve already added liquidity to the MAJOR/USDT pool, but trading in this pair will begin at 12:00 UTC. Additionally, we’ve boosted the pool with 13,930 $DUST (~$52k) to make liquidity provision more profitable.

🤔 Introducing $DUST, the new name for DeDust.io token

One of the most frequent questions we've been asked in chats and personal conversations over the past year is, "Why doesn't DeDust.io have its own token yet?" and "Why is DeDust.io's token called SCALE?"

A long time ago, we planned to name the exchange "Scaleton," but eventually, we came up with a better name—DeDust. While this has created some confusion, $SCALE has still become one of the most popular and well-known tokens in the ecosystem.

This rebranding aims to make our token even more recognizable and widely known, improving its branding and strengthening its connection to our product.

Today, we are thrilled to announce the rebranding of $SCALE to $DUST.

Holders don’t need to take any action— the contract address and on-chain data will remain the same; only the name will change. We will reach out to all analytics platforms and ask them to update the token display accordingly. Additionally, we plan to highlight $DUST more prominently on the homepage of our exchange.

The complete rebranding process will take some time, but in the meantime, share your thoughts on this update in the comments, and of course, tell all your frens about the update.

We all knew this would happen sooner or later.

Sincerely,
Scaleton team

We have become the title sponsor of the Hackers League ecosystem hackathon

DeDust.io today is one of the key protocols in the TON ecosystem. DeDust.io two years ago was a small, unknown project with a one-person team.

We’ve come a long way and learned a lot over these months. A significant milestone was participating in (and winning) the Hack-a-TONx hackathon, organized by the TON Foundation in the spring of 2023. At the time, it gave us the momentum we needed to reach our current heights.

Now, it's our turn to support new projects — DeDust.io is the title sponsor of the Hackers League ecosystem hackathon, held in partnership with ecosystem funds and major teams.

As part of our track, participants will need to build solutions on top of the DeDust protocol, and throughout the hackathon, we plan to delight developers with new tools and features never seen before.

Moreover, some teams will receive cash prizes, technical consultations, and marketing support from us.

Let’s build together,
Scaleton Team

🤔 LP rewards have been distributed

From day one, we have followed a simple plan: to build the best DeFi protocol. Not "the best in TON," but simply "the best." This ambitious goal has required us to make tough decisions and take unconventional paths.

One of the key objectives was to transform liquidity provision from a complex DeFi tool into a mechanic that is understandable to the mass audience. To achieve this, we developed a concept and set to work. However, after months of effort, we encountered obstacles that we couldn't overcome.

Ancient wisdom teaches us to accept what cannot be changed, and that's exactly what we did. Despite the substantial resources invested in development, we decided to abandon the implementation of a revolutionary new reward mechanism for liquidity provision. Instead, we opted for a time-tested solution where rewards are reinvested into the pool, increasing the value of your LP tokens.

All liquidity provision rewards collected between April 19, 2023, and June 24, 2024, are now available for claim in the Portfolio section. The classic mechanism of reinvesting LP rewards has been in effect since June 24, 2024.

$DOGS Listing on DeDust.io

The launch of the popular $DOGS token was a real test for the entire ecosystem, and our exchange was affected as well. During peak times, swaps took unusually long — up to 10 minutes.

While the peak has passed, the high demand for $DOGS is still affecting the performance of the blockchain and our exchange. Currently, swaps are taking an average of 5-7 minutes. We kindly ask for your understanding.

Despite these delays, no other issues have been detected. The delayed start trading smart contract functioned exactly as we intended, and our distributed architecture kept the exchange running smoothly even during the most challenging moments.

We want to thank the millions of users who are putting our product and the TON ecosystem to the test. The road to mass adoption may be tough, but we love what we do.

To share the joy of this successful launch with our users, we’ve added Boosts to the DOGS/TON and DOGS/USDT pools. Provide liquidity and earn $SCALE, our native token.

Sincerely,
Scaleton Team

DeDust.io x OKX Wallet joint campaign

Recently, OKX Wallet, a Web3 wallet by the popular crypto exchange, added support for TON and featured DeDust.io as one of the most popular TON dApps.

A huge promotional campaign has been launched to increase exposure for TON. Among other prizes, $50,000 worth of $SCALE is up for grabs.

To participate, install the OKX app on your mobile phone, set up a wallet, and complete quests. The campaign can be found under the Cryptopedia tab in the Discover section.

The liquidity incentivization program has been extended until the end of 2024. The funds will be gradually infused into the TON/USDt boost to maintain attractive APRs.

🤔 Lowest fees, optimized gas

Trading on DeDust.io has become more favorable for users: in some cases, the fee reduction has reached up to 75%.

We have set the default swap fees to 0.25% in regular pools (previously 0.4%) and 0.05% in stableswap pools (previously 0.1%).

For the most popular pool, TON/USDT, terms are especially favorable: the trading fee has been reduced from 0.4% to 0.1% until the end of July.

On top of that, we have updated our smart contracts, significantly reducing gas consumption.

All these changes are to make trading in TON more attractive for the mass audience.

Scaleton Team

🤔 DeDust.io is now accessible directly in Tonhub

You can download the wallet from the official website: https://tonhub.com/download.

🤔 New audience for your projects

This month, two analytics platforms, CoinMarketCap and DeFiLlama, have integrated DeDust.io.

CoinMarketCap.com, the world's most popular token analytics platform, now displays pairs from our exchange in detail, and the built-in DEX scanner, DexScan, contains all the information about assets and pools.

DeFiLlama.com, a popular DeFi analytics tool, has added DeDust.io to its yield dashboard. Now, all boosts are tracked in a special section where many new users can see the profitable boosts launched by project teams.

These integrations significantly increase the visibility of TON, DeDust.io, and, most importantly, the projects in our ecosystem, opening new channels for attracting users and liquidity.

Sincerely,
Scaleton Team

$200,000,000 TVL in TON/USD pair

Two months ago, native USDT was introduced to TON users. Today, the TON/USDT pool on DeDust.io has surpassed $200 million in TVL. Overall, TON’s TVL has reached $534 million, placing TON 15th among chains in the DefiLlama ranking.

This milestone would never have been achieved without the extensive support from TON Foundation, our partners, and most importantly, you, the community. Huge shoutout to those who use DeDust.io daily to trade and earn through liquidity provision and $SCALE staking. We build for you.

Fun fact: The TON/USDT pool on DeDust.io is the largest pool in the entire crypto space consisting of a native blockchain token and a stablecoin.

LFG DeDust.io!

Scaleton Team

⚖️ TON users have already received over $288,000 in $SCALE

On May 2nd, we released the staking of our native token. The key feature of this staking is the source of funds — they are not taken from the treasury or issued: we convert swap fees into $SCALE and distribute it among stakers.

Thanks to this innovation, $SCALE has obtained the long-awaited utility, and a deep connection between the ecosystem, the protocol, and the token has been established:
- New users come to the ecosystem and trade tokens;
- The more new users come, the more trading volume they generate;
- This volume then transfers into swap fees, which fuels $SCALE staking;
- This way, the token grows with the popularity of the whole ecosystem.

During the past month, the APR was mostly around 40%-50%, and users staked over $8 million worth of $SCALE.

Buy $SCALE and join the stakers community to benefit from the ecosystem’s growth with us.

Sincerly,
Scaleton Team
