TON 💎

🛠 Developing for TON just became 10x faster. The new toolchain makes smart contracts easy to create, test, and deploy. Most importantly, fully AI-ready. It replaces TON’s fragmented tooling stack with one dev flow. Start building! ton-blockchain.github.io/acton/

TON is #1 in annual staking rewards among the 50 largest cryptocurrencies. That’s on top of the coin’s price growth, which doubled this week.

Telegram becoming TON’s largest validator strengthens decentralization. It lets other major players join the validator pool without centralizing the network — with Telegram as the counterbalance. 📈 More and more TON gets locked in validation as everyone competes for 20%+ APR.

Fees in TON have dropped 6× — to nearly zero. Next step — Telegram replaces the TON Foundation as the driving force behind TON and becomes its largest validator. The focus shifts to tech superiority. New ton.org, new dev tools, new performance upgrades. Timeline: 2-3 weeks.

⚡️ In one week, TON fees will drop 6× — to just 0.00039 TON (~$0.0005) per transaction, fixed regardless of network load. 🆓 Soon after most transactions go fully feeless. Zero commission. MTONGA!

The TON blockchain just got upgraded and is now 10× faster. Block rate increased 6×. Transactions are now instant, subsecond. This was step 1 of 7 to Make TON Great Again (MTONGA). Next step: cut the already low transaction fees by 6×.

@durov @s0meone_u_know Make TON Great Again 💪💎

@web3flincher Thank you for the support!

@ton_blockchain This is a solid win. Ton being 6x faster makes transactions more faster and adoption very easy. Just what it was meant to do from birth

Track the voting here: vote.lagus.cooking

The first phase has been live since April 2. Today, at 14:00 UTC, the final vote started to cut block times to 400 ms across the entire network. To activate the upgrade, validators vote on-chain. The proposal needs support from at least 75% of validators (by stake weight) across two validation rounds, roughly 36 hours.

Catchain 2.0 activation is underway TON validators are voting to fully activate Catchain 2.0, a consensus upgrade that brings sub-second finality to the network. 👉 t.me/tonstatus/203
