Playmuse has launched a Telegram Mini App for creative communities

Playmuse, a TON-based Web3 service tailored for creative professionals, has unveiled its Telegram Mini App (TMA). This launch marks a significant development for individuals engaged in diverse creative pursuits such as music production, filmmaking, blogging, managing Telegram channels, and streaming.

At the core of Playmuse's offering is the ability for users to engage with NFTs in a unique manner. Creators can not only release, buy, and sell NFTs as representations of various content forms but also utilize these NFTs as keys to unlock exclusive access to closed groups or events within communities.

The launch of Playmuse's TMA enhances the ease of accessing exclusive content. Here's how it works: A content creator releases a collection on the Playmuse marketplace. When a user purchases an NFT from this collection, they can then open the TMA for verification of the NFT. Once verified, they gain access to private channels or chats linked to that NFT.

Moreover, Playmuse allows for collections to be interconnected with various communities, offering a seamless experience for users. It also supports importing collections from other marketplaces, broadening the scope for creative expression and collaboration. Esteemed artists like Antoha MC, Sorry Jesus, Notahash, who famously composed a track inspired by Pavel Durov's wallet, are among the many who have embraced this media service.

To explore this platform and potentially earn rewards for your content, you can launch a TMA here (the launch is scheduled at 27.12.2023, 14:00 UTC) Join Playmuse’s official Telegram channel to learn more.

TON processed over 80 million inscriptions transactions in 15 days

TON Community is delighted to see the work to supercharge the network led to the successful launch of Inscriptions on TON. While other networks attempt to ban such demanding levels of transactions, TON evolved to carry the load with open arms. There were issues, but they led to great learnings that will shape how TON evolves to even greater levels of scale.

Since TON20 inscriptions launched - 98,945 unique users have made over 80 million transactions. Transactions per second have consistently held above 300 in over a week of minting activity, at one point reaching a peak of 649, a new record for TON Mainnet. TON’s dynamic sharding was in full swing, splitting into a peak of 16 shardchains. At the same time, transaction costs remained fixed and low at an average of ~$0.004 per transaction. In a community-led effort, crucial infrastructure was upgraded, including liteservers, APIs, and message delivery services. Special thanks to TON Diamonds, who set up additional liteservers, and GetBlock, who provided free RPC nodes for key projects.

The road to putting crypto in every pocket and making TON the most scalable blockchain on the planet was never going to be easy, but stress tests will always strengthen our ecosystem.
