🔥 Tonkeeper and TON Core team Launch New Wallet Standard - the W5 Smart Wallet

Tonkeeper, a leading non-custodial TON wallet with more than 30M monthly active users, is proud to announce the launch of the new TON ecosystem wallet standard W5.

Tonkeeper’s team has created prominent innovative products, such as TON Connect for secure connection to thousands of dApps, Tonkeeper Battery for gasless transactions and the Gasless USDT and Notcoin feature. The Tonkeeper team has also built the largest developer platform on TON — TonAPI.

Tonkeeper, in partnership with the TON Core team, is introducing the 🔥W5 Smart Wallet, a new standard designed with gasless transactions and extensibility.

🔥 W5 is an open wallet standard developed in collaboration with the TON ecosystem to replace the current wallet version, v4.

Tonkeeper is dedicated to simplifying blockchain interactions and making TON accessible to all users, regardless of their familiarity with cryptocurrency.

The launch of the W5 Smart Wallet with embedded Battery and Gasless features marks a significant step towards achieving this goal. This offers users a seamless and efficient transaction experience, with many more exciting new features to come powered by W5.

Making TON More Accessible

TON, a “multi-asset” blockchain network, supports a wide range of fungible tokens, including the stablecoin USDT, staked “tsTON” and the tap-to-earn Notcoin as well as various non-fungible tokens (NFTs).

Getting into blockchain can be challenging to newcomers. This is because users cannot perform transactions without first acquiring Toncoin to pay network gas fees.

Tonkeeper’s Battery and Gasless features were created to address this issue. This enables users to simplify their initial interactions with the network by using Tonkeeper wallet’s ability to “charge” the Battery feature to cover for fees.

Key Features 🔥W5

⚡️ Gasless Transactions

Tonkeeper users can make transactions without worrying about gas fees or acquiring Toncoin. Instead, transaction fees are covered using USDT or Notcoin from a user's balance.

🔋 Tonkeeper Battery

A versatile off-chain account within Tonkeeper that covers transaction fees without Toncoin, the Battery balance is denominated in charges:

One charge: Covers a simple Toncoin transfer.
5–10 charges: Required for more complex transactions like token or NFT transfers.

⚡️ Efficiency

Support for up to 255 operations in Tonkeeper in a single transaction, boosting speed and efficiency. W5 increases the number of simultaneous operations from four to 255, so users can save up on charges.

🔋 Charging the Battery

Tonkeeper Battery has processed more than 2 million transactions by mid-June 2024. When a user signs a transaction, Tonkeeper deducts the amount of charges required to pay gas fees from the Battery.

🧑‍💻 Recovery Phrase

Old v4 wallet accounts and the new W5 Smart Wallet use the same recovery phrase. This means when a user restores accounts on a new device, both old and new accounts will appear automatically.

To try 🔥W5:

1. Update Tonkeeper to the most recent version
2. Tap “Settings” and select “W5 Wallet”
3. Add the “W5” wallet alongside a current wallet, and start using your new W5 wallet.
