​EthSign joins The Open Network to bring Web3 contract signing to the masses

EthSign is collaborating with TON Foundation to bring secure, multi-chain, and decentralized digital contract signing into the flourishing Web3 ecosystem based on TON within Telegram.

What is EthSign?

EthSign is a Web3 infrastructure platform that enables users to sign digital contracts right from their Web3 wallets or Web2 social logins such as Twitter and Gmail. It supports Tonkeeper and Tonhub, among other TON wallets.

With a core focus on security, it also employs decentralized storage to ensure that your contracts are immutable and secure.

Introducing @EthSignBot

EthSign is launching the @EthSignBot, a Telegram-native feature that will allow mobile users to sign contracts within the Telegram app itself.

This bot also serves as a notification system, alerting you when you receive new contracts. Imagine creating, signing, and sharing contracts directly from Telegram.

Why is this important?

▪️ TON is giving billions the opportunity to own their digital identity, data, and assets. EthSign aligns perfectly with this vision, as it empowers users to handle legal contracts in a decentralized, secure manner.

▪️ This collaboration will make digital contracts more accessible and easy to manage, enhancing the utility and capabilities of the TON Ecosystem.

▪️ EthSign’s multi-chain support means that it’s not just limited to a single blockchain, making it versatile and inclusive for all users.

As a result of running The Open Challenge for two consecutive quarters, Megaton achieved an average TVL of $11 million during Q2 FY23, making them eligible for a reward (which has since been deposited back into the pool).

Get to Better Understand the Tact Programming Language

You've probably heard of Tact - a new programming language for creating smart contracts on TON.

Both beginners and experienced developers sometimes struggle to understand why TON uses a proprietary language instead of some of the existing ones. But there are obvious benefits to Tact compared to other languages.

You can explore the benefits and learn more about Tact in our recent article — Why Tact is TON's Next Big Breakthrough.

The material will interest all developers without exception, and we hope it will motivate you to choose Tact as your next language to learn.
You can start learning Tact straight away thanks to a free Tact course by Vladimir Alefman that will help you start your journey in blockchain development.

​Believers.ton — A community-driven effort to bring more transparent and predictable Toncoin tokenomics

As you know, the community is continuously working on systematic actions to amplify the TON tokenomics, which started with decentralized distribution through mining.

So far, the community reached multiple important milestones:

— Created a fund and reserve of more than 550M TON
— Nominators were established, bringing the number of validators to over 300 and the total stake employed in validation to over 450M TON
— Implemented a community proposal to optimize tokenomics, affecting 1.081B TON
— Launched a mechanism to burn a portion of the network fees

A new Believers.ton initiative has recently emerged in the community, allowing users to lock their Toncoins into the Believers.ton smart contract for five years, while other users can donate Toncoins, rewarding those who have locked their coins. The more coins are locked in the smart contract, the more transparent and predictable tokenomics become, which is vital for developing the network and attracting new participants.

We have audited and tested this smart contract at the community's request. The smart contract is fully autonomous and guarantees the described functionality.

This effort is an excellent example of how the TON community can organize itself. An excellent community-driven effort, where individual community members encourage and reward each other for contributing towards the greater good. This initiative has a significant potential to positively impact the future of TON, especially if large holders participate.

As proof of our deep interest in this effort and based on the results of the last community survey, the TON Foundation will support it by sending 1 million TON from the TON Fund to reward depositors.

Please consider participating in Believers.ton as a patron or depositor.
