🔥Another big step for Web3

From the very beginning, TON was designed as a decentralized, self-governing organism. And only if the vast majority (as many as two-thirds of validators) give their approval, changes to the network can be made.

Today, the 'configuration key', the last element hindering complete decentralization, was removed from the system.

This key allowed adjusting the technical parameters of the network in critical cases. It could not directly manipulate smart contracts, such as making changes to the balance, code or account data. Nevertheless, it was the last element to get rid of in order to achieve true and complete decentralization of the TON blockchain.

So, today, that key is history. The devs removed it from the system, along with all the “buts”, and now our beloved TON network stands to claim its position as the most advanced decentralized body!

🙏GeckoTerminal x TON

CoinGecko's tracker has started supporting decentralized TON blockchain exchanges.

GeckoTerminal is a real-time DEX tracker created by the CoinGecko developmers. From its terminal you can track cryptocurrency prices, volumes, transactions, liquidity, and much more on decentralized exchanges from all blockchains.

Previously, CoinGecko has listed TON coin and created a rating catalog for Telegram bots and apps to keep track of this thriving ecosystem.

🙏Promo video from the TON blockchain conference

Here is a promo video presented during the recent Gateway conference, which briefly describes The Open League initiative and plans within the TON Society.

The idea is to allow contributors, developers, and other users to earn XP for performing certain tasks, which can then be exchanged for a TON.

In addition, participants will receive a commemorative badge in the form of an SBT NFT for achieving milestones in various events.

This initiative is expected to attract 5 million active users to the TON ecosystem.

Also in the near future, emphasis will be placed on the development of TMA/TWA (Telegram Mini/ Web Apps), which will attract many developers and creative users to the ecosystem.

We should probably expect a lot of events for developers, and of course, a constructor for creating TMA / TWA (but this is just a guess). 🧐

😏Received a complement from the author of the question

Alexander Plotvinov from the Open Builders team complemented an earlier question posed as part of a conference on accelerating user engagement in the TON ecosystem:

You don't need to start with 500M, but run a test

where you send 100,000 Toncoin to 100,000 Telegram-premium users as a gift, with a limited time and a condition to create a TON wallet. Or if not to Premium users, then to those who have been active in the last 30 days, chosen at random.

The advantage of this approach is that the distribution can't be abused, since it will be given retrospectively to those who already bring value to Telegram.

My hypothesis is that 90% of Toncoin will remain in the ecosystem, simply because 1 TON is not enough to be transferred to fiat or other networks.
And giving people use cases — gaming, collectibles, defi — will add even more motivation to become a regular participant of the TON Community.

It is quite possible scenario where for 100,000 Toncoin sent, we will get buyers for 1,000,000 Toncoin, simply because some people will discover the value of TON and the potential of the integration with Telegram and will want to transfer their assets from fiat or other networks.

If the 100,000 Toncoin experiment is successful and TON gets more value than money spent, we can continue with a larger audience as long as the right value / money ratio is maintained.

And if it fails — well, it's a small price to pay for trying to save 5 years of onboarding of millions of users. Still, we will have thousands of new onchain users, which doesn't sound too bad.

🤑Should TON Foundation give away 1 TON to 500 million users each?

The vision for TON community is to reach 500 million users within 5 years.

During one of the sessions at the Gateway conference held on 10 November, Alexander Plotvinov (CEO of Open Builders), suggested to the panelists that in order to reach the goal faster, TON Foundation could give away 1 TON each to 500 million users.

To which Steve Yun boldly replied:

"We can hold a public vote and let the community decide."

We've launched a poll on ton.vote, which we invite you to join - should we accelerate adoption in such a radical way?

Could such a method help to bring the figure of so many live users rather than bots and multiaccers closer?

Your questioner @TonPost

🤩TON developers will integrate native stablecoins

Many popular networks impose mandatory conditions related to holding native coins. For example, users must hold TRX on the balance to send USDT over TRC20, which greatly complicates the process.

Next year, a special smart contract for a popular stablecoin will be launched, allowing transactions to be carried out without paying commissions in TON.

💍Telegram will soon integrate more TON

Owners of Telegram channels will be able to host TON and NFT draws, much like in Telegram Premium, through a native and transparent messenger tool.

💎Layerswap x TON

Layerswap announced it's integrating TON blockchain into its application.

Layerswap is an application for transferring crypto assets between centralized exchanges, blockchains and banks in a matter of minutes.

Now Layerswap users can transfer TON funds from CEX, Ethereum, Solana, and L2 protocols. Note that those are protocols deployed on top of the main Layer 1 blockchain, increasing its scalability.

Currently, the application allows for unlimited cryptocurrency transfers between 18 exchanges and 24 blockchains, as well as multi-chain transfers and fiat transfers.

Another small step through the limitless TON ecosystem, but it makes the journey so much more exciting! 🤗

⬆️ Heading High

TON coin reached $2.71 at the time of writing the post. What's behind such a price rally?

Several factors could be at hand, most notably the upcoming Gateway conference taking place tomorrow.

During this conference, many partnerships, collaborations and announcements will be made, which will fuel interest in token and the blockchain as a whole.

For instance, yesterday Bybit joined forces with The Open Network to launch TON Odyssey, an event aiming to put cryptocurrency in every pocket. As part of this event, Bybit users can earn up to 5.5 TON by performing simple actions.

The price of TON was also boosted by the recent Telegram update, which allowed for hosting transparent and verifiable giveaways of Telegram Premium subscriptions.

On November 6th and 7th, Pavel Durov launched giveaways with a total prize of 15,000 subscriptions, worth over $300,000.

You can get a much better deal buying wholesale premium subscriptions on Fragment, which is what many popular Telegram channels are doing to attract subscribers to their channels in the most organic way.

These are just some of the few factors that we know about, but let's wait for the conference to find out the rest!

How far do you think TON will grow?

Your amazing @TonPost

😌Pavel Durov is not disappointed in TON

Pavel Durov posted on his channel how TON has set the record as the fastest blockchain in the world!

He commented:

We were right to choose TON as the blockchain platform for Telegram. From a technological standpoint, competitors are years behind in scalability. Bitcoin is likely to stay, but other general-purpose blockchains look obsolete.

Pavel also shared a list of blockchains ranked by TPS indicator.

Your hightech @TonPost

😊Recognized by the DFSA

As per the DFSA 3A.3.4 GEN Rule, Dubai Financial Regulation and Supervision Authority officially recognized Toncoin (TON) as a cryptocurrency token.

DFSA's recognition implies that The Open Network operates within the framework of regulatory rules and standards, providing additional assurance to investors and users.

Having such a status brings in an additional level of legitimacy and trust for the cryptocurrency.

This will foster interest from potential investors, and contribute to the growth, capitalization, and adoption of the TON ecosystem.

🎉The Open Network is in the Guinness Book of Records

TON blockchain passed the public performance test with flying colors.

Its TPS (transactions per second) indicator reached 108,409!

This indicator is not only higher than other blockchains, but also than the classic Visa and Mastercard payment systems, which are able to process only about ~25k.

Mastercard | 5000 TPS
VISA | 24000 TPS
Solana | 50000 TPS
The Open Network | 108000 TPS

The record was set in 12 minutes over a test network of 256 validators. With a sufficient number of validators, TON will be able to process millions of transactions per second from billions of users.

This is a remarkable indicator that actually demonstrates the capabilities of the ultra-fast and flexible TON blockchain.

As this news spreads all over the world, many will discover our powerful ecosystem, more capable than meets the eye.

Your record holder @TonPost

📖The historical test is about to start

A public performance test of the TON blockchain will begin in 1.5 hours, which will grant the TON Foundation the status of the fastest and most scalable blockchain in the world.

Alibaba Cloud has created 256 servers as validator nodes and will launch a separate TON blockchain network to conduct the performance tests.

The moment of Truth will take place today at 18:00 (UTC+3)

This will be a demonstration of The Open Network blockchain's technical superiority. TON is the fastest and most scalable blockchain in the world.

Watch as it happens on live.ton.org or broadcast on YouTube.
