Jettons Ahead of Wallets

Despite the fact jettons are already possible to implement, it's not been an easy task due to the lack of infrastructure: one can deploy a jetton contract and send it, yet the receivers have no way to see their jetton balances nor send it out (unless you're a dev).

However, the TON community always finds a way. Recently, the first jetton found its way to the mainnet. More to that, the issuing project even holds an active token sale in public.

On its front-end, the sale is implemented in the following way: in order to receive jettons, one must send Toncoin to the ICO address. Afterward, the jettons are automatically sent in return – the amount depends on how much $TON has been received.

In order to check your jetton balance – since there are no wallets that support jettons yet – creators implemented a simple on-site solution: on top of the homepage of the ICO website, participants can insert their Toncoin sender address, hit 'check', and view their token balance instantly.

To make sure you're getting actual on-chain jettons, the founders open sourced their jetton smart contract on GitHub.
