TON-based Telegram Mini Apps — The Next Major Web3 Trend

The combination of TON and the Telegram Mini Apps platform allows any developer to create various valuable and user-friendly Web3 services for hundreds of millions of Telegram users.

This is becoming a global trend as popular tracking services CoinGecko and CoinMarketCap have already deployed trackers for crypto apps in Telegram. In addition, the tApps.center catalog has been launched that lists over 75 Telegram-based Mini Apps.

TON-based Mini Apps running on Telegram enjoy native Telegram integration and priority access to Telegram Ads, making it easier to approach the masses and onboard new users. Additionally, developers can buy Fragments — short usernames for their apps on the TON Blockchain to even further boost their awareness and provide ease of access.

On top of that, there are multiple incentives and benefits for developers. In July, the TON Foundation held the TON-based Telegram Apps contest with a prize pool of $60,000. There is another Mini Apps contest with a prize pool of $50,000 from the Telegram team running now.

Here, fresh ideas and new solutions are born in a creative environment of collaboration and innovation. The TON Community, in an initiative with the TON Foundation and Telegram, is rapidly building a new decentralized future, and developers are welcome to join.
