Freelancers will be able to get paid in TON

⚡️ MadeTask, a service for paying freelancers worldwide, has integrated TON cryptocurrency.

💎 Remote workers who do not want to use traditional money will be able to withdraw their earnings in TON, while remaining legal.

In turn, customers will greatly expand the circle of freelancers, as many crypto-enthusiasts and supporters of The Open Network will appear.

✅ This integration should have a positive effect on the mass acceptance of cryptocurrency, as TON is increasingly becoming applicable in real life.

The official twitter account of TON subscribed to Kucoin and Binance exchanges

💭 This fact is remarkable because last time about 2 months before TON was listed on Huobi Global the same thing happened.

We, as an interested party, had a little «whispering» with our sources and used the administrative resource.

🔥 So, the editors of the «Front TON» Channel can say with confidence that there will be a listing of TON on the Kucoin cryptocurrency exchange, followed by Binance.

Your guess, when will there be a listing? Will Kucoin and Binance be overtaken by Huobi's marketing campaign?

Theses from the AMA developer session at TON

📢 The main points of what was said:

1. The primary path is "open possibly serverless shitty dapp from Telegram or some random github page on mobile"

2. Let's have a standard button and widget to show a selection of the wallet apps, so when the user selects one — the wallet knows where to connect. Wallets list should be customizeable on the app's end. Return url is not always possible and should be optional.

3. This means, the rendezvous server is actually a bridge and the bridge is provided by the wallet. All comm and tx requests are going through that bridge.

4. Desktop-mobile use case is covered with universal link opening a QR code and a back button. It could even automatically redirect back when the wallet responds.

Q: how do we distinguish between two sorts of return_urls: one for the user to go back to Telegram and another for QR code page to go back to the app, and not make it confusing for devs?

5A. To identify the apps upon connect we need a lightweight flow without signed requests. The serverless dapp cannot sign, and we are not transmitting PII anyway.

5B. To identify tx requests we use optional TON DNS to label the addresses. TON DNS is cool because it eliminates intermediaries and lets use Telegram and other distribution mechanisms as untrusted traffic hoses. But we should make its usage more friendly and efficient for devs.

Q: how to implement and mandate immutably-bound names? Through constraints on DNS items, or as a separate registry? Who would design that registry? Without such protocol in place, DNS names are mutable and could fool users just like immutable contracts could. Need to avoid a slippery slope from the start.

Q: who should protect against phishing? With TON DNS we have a chance to spread this protection across multiple layers and not be locked into dependency on Telegram, CAs and other intermediaries. E.g. both Telegram could kick off scammers, and wallets and blockchain APIs could mark phishy names, and the developer is always in direct control over their identification.

6. The workflow for users should be close regardless of whether they connect to a dapp or a service. Button ⟶ prompt ⟶ confirm ⟶ back to the app.

7. SDK for developers should be ±unified for both cases because it matches users' flow, but with clear definition of each scenario. E.g. unsigned requests for connect come with no guarantee and cannot be used for sign-in, but okay for serverless dapps.

8. We need to check the trade-offs of the emerging design for desktop-mobile, desktop-desktop situations and dapp-within-wallet use cases. If they are too inconvenient, we need to revisit the above assumptions.

💬 Outside the scope:

1. Detecting which wallets are installed.
2. How to sign arbitrary messages for use in smart contracts (proper domain-separation needs to be uniformely adopted).
3. How the dapp connects to the blockchain.
4. How the wallet evaluates non-standard tx payload to inform the user properly.

TON and Telegram mentions from Conor McGregor

🥊 Yesterday, UFC fighter Conor McGregor tweeted a video in which two mentions of TON and one of Telegram (in our opinion) appear.

💎 For those who don't have time:
1. The very beginning of the video, with the diamond sticker (TON symbol) in the upper right corner of the slot machine;

2. The same diamond appears a second time in Conor's path in the form of a coin, breaking it up the TON diamond itself appears;

3. It refers more to Telegram than to TON: when breaking the diamond coin, white paper airplanes (the symbol of Telegram) appear.

The video also hints at other cryptocurrencies and services, but we're pleased that the video creators used references to The Open Network so nicely :)

TON will appear as perpetual swaps

⚡️ It became known that in two weeks it will be possible to trade TON via open-ended swaps on the cryptocurrency exchange Bit.com.

This means that leverage and short positions will be available:

🤑 Leverage — for example, you can open trades with $10 available on $100 — this means using 10 leverage. Profit will be increased by a factor of 10, but the risks also increase by a factor of 10.

📉 Short position — a trader opens a trade hoping to make profit on fall of asset value (e.g. TON).

TON is increasingly appearing on new crypto exchanges, and now we will get a new platform as an alternative to FTX with swap on TON.

Who will short and who will long TON?

DEX | «Trustless Exchanges»

DEX can be regarded as «Trustless Exchanges». But this is not said in a negative way, on the contrary, to trade on DEX you do not need to trust the exchange to conduct transactions, as on CEX.

🤖 With DEX, the emphasis is on smart contracts, which cannot follow someone else's requests or instructions - they work as originally prescribed in the code, which means functioning without trust of the parties to each other.

✅ There is no need to trust DEX, because it has no registry of customer accounts, and all users use non-custodial wallets for transactions. Transactions are verified and executed in real time, and are only approved up to a set amount.

Remember that every such action in DEX is validated by the user, which gives a quality multi-level control over your actions 🛡

What is the contingent in DEX? | Types of Participants II

We continue to introduce you to the characters in the DEX universe:

3️⃣ Traders — users who exchange their tokens for others.

4️⃣ Oracles — users who provide information for liquidity pools about the fair rates of cryptocurrencies in trading pairs.

5️⃣ Arbitrageurs — traders who make money from speculation - sell crypto bought cheaper elsewhere to a liquidity pool. After the transaction, the price balance in the pool changes, and arbitrageurs fill it with tokens to equalize asset prices between different trading venues.

In your opinion, who is the most profitable to be in DEX?

What is the contingent in DEX? | Types of Participants I

A decentralized exchange often does not have the participants that are necessarily involved in a centralized exchange, such as management bodies, administrators, intermediaries.

But then who is present in DEX? The answer is:

1️⃣ Liquidity Providers — users who own cryptocurrency and invest it in liquidity pools. Providers lend their assets to the DEX smart contract, for which they receive a commission on each transaction of their crypto.

2️⃣ IDO projects are initial coin offerings that can take place on the DEX. Projects raise capital from investors after which the IDO is completed, listed, and tokens are available for free trading on the secondary market.

Who can remember what the first IDO on TON was?

TEPs | Update on TON

🛠 TON Enhancement Proposals or TEPs for short (https://github.com/ton-blockchain/TEPs) is the new "home" for current and future standards of The Open Network, replacing TIPs (https://github.com/ton-blockchain/TIPs) with GitHub Issues.

✅ The process of examining current standards, proposing, and discussing new standards has become more convenient.
We're glad that TON is once again making positive changes :)

🍁 Also, congratulations to everyone on the beginning of autumn, may it be productive!

Wrapped Toncoin | Part II

The Open Network has a bridge that is responsible for issuing and blocking TONs.

📝 Workflow: user wants 5 wrapped TONs and sends 5 original ones to the bridge —> the bridge blocks the native TON and for every blocked one releases a wrapped TON.

🔄 If the user wants the original TONs and only has the wrapped TONs, the process is identical but in reverse order.

We want to warn you that you will need to pay a certain amount for the bridge — 5 TON + blockchain commission, manage your assets wisely.

Wrapped Toncoin | Part I

🍬 Wrapped tokens are a version of the "native" tokens in another network.

TON has two wrapped versions: TON BEP-20 for the Binance network and TON ERC-20 for the Ethereum network.

⚖️ The value of the wrapped tokens is usually equal to the value of the original tokens, but this only happens as long as the issuance of the wrapped tokens is backed by the "native" blocked tokens.

💸 Wrapped tokens can be used to interact with the protocols of other networks, with which one can earn money, such as DEX.

Telegram WebZ is available through TON

🔐 Few people know that Telegram WebZ is available through TON, namely ton.org/app.

✨ An interesting "easter egg" that raises many questions, such as why can the Telegram app be accessed through the TON site?

Will Telegram WebZ be the first to have WEB 3 compatible wallet integration?

💡 Or maybe this version is being used to test WEB 3 products in Telegram, which was recently mentioned by Pavel Durov, you can read about here — t.me/FrontTONen/114.

So many questions and so few answers. What do you think about it?
