Cryptomus, cryptocurrency payment system, has added support for TON

Crypto payment gateway for business and private use Cryptomus has added support for TON and deployed TON Connect authorization standard developed by the Tonkeeper team.

A lot of users and businesses can now use TON cryptocurrency to pay for various goods and services.

The partnership with Cryptomus is the first use case of the TON Connect authorization standard outside of the TON ecosystem. Undoubtedly, events like this bring the mass adoption of TON as a secure and fast payment method closer.

It's worth mentioning that three new TON-based DEXs tonswap.org, dedust.io, and STON.fi have also enabled TON Connect authorization standard, which means that Tonkeeper users can now exchange tokens on these platforms quickly and securely right from their smartphones or computers.

💎 Alternative TON wallets

⚫️ The journey of almost every crypto beginner starts with downloading their first non-custodial wallet for mobile or PC. In the case of Toncoin, the most popular wallet apps are Tonkeeper and Tonhub. Though some people may prefer a default TON Wallet available on every platform, these apps form the majority of crypto users on The Open Network. However, a whole bunch of wallet apps remains unrecognized by most users. Well, what is the TON ecosystem hiding?

Juston, an iOS wallet app that became popular earlier this summer, attracted attention with its futuristic and extraordinary design. In addition to an awesome app interface, it provides several unique features which were still not added by mobile wallet giants, Tonkeeper and Tonhub. One is a web3 browser allowing you to surf the web and access the first DeFi projects on TON. Learn more about Juston on its official Telegram page — @thejuston (sadly, only in Russian).

⚫️ This fall turned out to be very productive on new apps made on The Open Network. Another member of our list is OpenMask, a simple and clear Chrome extension. Designed as an analogue to the well-known Metamask, the wallet app has improved over the last months. Thanks to a backward compatible provider with the original extension wallet, OpenMask enables users to log in to many sites — e.g., DeDust — and use multi wallets. More details are available on the Telegram channel — @openproduct.

⚫️ Last but not least is determined to bring a positive experience to non-crypto newcomers, TonSafe. Available on many mobile platforms, it strives to become a professional tool to operate with TON. As well as a myriad of currencies and languages available in the app, you can enter almost every site, thanks to Tonhub’s open-source nature. Follow its last updates on Telegram — @tonsafe.

⚫️ And even after that, that’s not all. It is mind-blowing how the TON ecosystem has expanded over the last months and how many apps, projects, and developments have appeared.

The TON Foundation and TON ecosystem partners have announced a $126-million fund to spur the crypto market into recovery mode.

The TON Foundation and a group of independent investment partners, including DWF Labs, Darley Technologies, Hexa Capital, and TONcoin.Fund, have announced the creation of a fund with a soft commitment of $126 million in the hopes of saving crypto projects in the industry.

The fund will assist companies in developing successful and innovative products based on TON while offering support for other projects experiencing a liquidity crunch as a result of the recent FTX implosion and its subsequent ripple effects.

Part of the financing will allow existing projects to migrate to TON under the TON Foundation’s purview and consultation. It will also act as an airbag to absorb the adverse impact caused by the FTX contagion that’s been rapidly spreading across the industry.

Tonstarter, the first TON-based launchpad, is also gearing up to play a part in the initiative by offering crucial support for projects developing products in DeFi, marketplaces, social, and other Web3 sectors while attracting IDO funding and releasing tokens.

Andrei Grachev, the managing partner of DWF Labs, said:

“Together with the TON Foundation, we decided to act immediately to support the bold founders that are building the future of Web3.”

Clément Florentin, CEO of Darley Technologies, also commented on the new fund:

“In line with our mission to provide deep and reliable liquidity, we immediately agreed to commit $15 million to projects in need.”

Moreover, the TON Foundation has launched a new documentation section for talented developers, making the transition to The Open Network seamless by giving step-by-step instructions for dApps and SDK.

An important community request to TON miners who have never used their coins

The level of interest in TON from the open-source community has grown exponentially over the year.

One of the main challenges of 2022 was reaching a community consensus on what the circulating supply is. Today, different data aggregators show different statistics. They often use a definition that simply does not capture the uniqueness of the TON’s history.

Therefore, we are proposing to launch a community-wide effort to determine what the community should consider dormant, inactive or uncirculating supply going forward.

Currently, the total number of inactive mining addresses with a balance of over 1 TON is 204. The total balance of these addresses is about 1.08 Billion TON. The full list of these addresses, which is public and on-chain, is made available by the independent data aggregator TonTech.

We kindly ask all owners of these inactive mining wallets — the genesis wallets that received Toncoin directly from Givers without the history of a single outgoing transaction — to activate and make an outgoing transfer to any address on the TON network by 00:00 UTC on January 1, 2023.

Through this community exercise, we hope to achieve greater clarity and certainty on the tokenomics of the TON network. The community has the right to know. This will remove the obstacles and hindrances faced by some contributors. We kindly ask all miners to take part in this initiative.

The data will be useful for providing a more accurate data to service providers, such as CoinMarketCap. It will remove discrepancies between different statistics.

We strongly encourage all members of the TON community to spread information about this initiative in order to reach as many participants as possible.

Ozys announces the launch of Megaton Finance, a new DEX based on the TON blockchain

One of South Korea's leading blockchain company, Ozys, announced the upcoming launch of a TON mainnet decentralized exchange (DEX). The full launch is expected in early January 2023.

The new DEX, named Megaton Finance is a multi-chain DeFi-protocol that aims to expand the cross-chain popularity of the TON ecosystem and use cases of the TON blockchain.

The platform will usher in the liquidity of major assets such as ETH, WBTC, USDT, USDC, DAI, and MATIC upon its release. It is notable that Ozys has previously built Klayswap and Meshswap for Klaytn and Polygon mainnets, respectively.

Leading up to the launch, Megaton Finance will hold several new user promotions and airdrops upon completion of certain tasks such as joining the community channels, downloading and sending Toncoin to major TON wallets, utilizing the cross-chain bridge, and providing liquidity seeding to the new TON pair pools on their existing Klayswap and Meshswap protocols. These events will prepare new and current users to help Megaton Finance with liquidity and word-of-mouth.

The suite of cross-chain enabling products that Ozys is building (Orbit Bridge and Megaton Finance) will contribute to the expansion and mainstream adoption of the TON ecosystem.

With the suite of DEXs appearing on TON, including Ston.Fi, Scaleton, DeDust, TonSwap, and more, we are excited at the prospects of a future growth in total value locked on TON.

Visit the Megaton Finance pre-launch website for details on aforementioned promotions.

The TON blockchain will be connected to the cross-chain Orbit Bridge.

Orbit Bridge is a multi-chain bridge service with token conversion between mainnets with current support of 19 blockchains and 84 tokens. The platform is by Ozys, a South Korean blockchain company with additional TON development roadmap, including a TON native DEX scheduled for release on early January 2023.

The service has over $12.3 billion worth of assets locked and undergoes a quarterly security audit. Since its launch in 2020, Orbit has not suffered a breach.

Supported tokens on Orbit Bridge to and from TON ecosystem will include:

Ethereum-based tokens (51): WBTC, ETH, USDT, USDC, DAI, etc.
Polygon-based tokens (4): MATIC, MESH, etc.
Klaytn-based tokens (10): KLAY, KSP, etc.

Orbit Bridge Validators include leading names in the crypto industry, such as First Stage Labs, TON Ecosystem Builders, Cosmostation, Neoply, DSRV, M-block, Despread, Move Labs, B-harvest, Ozys, and more.

Ozys is currently developing its own TON-based DEX, which will launch early January 2023.

Justin Hyun, Head of Incubation at the TON Foundation, shared his comments on the occasion:

“With the introduction of TON as the latest mainnet on the Orbit Bridge, a host of new users will be introduced to the TON ecosystem. Vice-versa, TON users will be excited for the opportunity to hold stablecoins on TON mainnet. While mainnet native minting is our ultimate goal, we believe that multi-chain solution unlocks new potential for the TON ecosystem. Users that port over to TON will experience the advantages that our blockchain holds over its peers.”

Note: It is important for users to access the authentic website. There are other sites with deceiving names designed to trick unfamiliar users and we encourage our community to employ good security practices.

The blockchain industry was built on the promise of decentralization, but ended up being concentrated in the hands of a few who began to abuse their power. As a result, a lot of people lost their money when FTX, one of the largest exchanges, went bankrupt.

The solution is clear: blockchain-based projects should go back to their roots – decentralization. Cryptocurrency users should switch to trustless transactions and self-hosted wallets that don't rely on any single third party.

We, developers, should steer the blockchain industry away from centralization by building fast and easy-to-use decentralized applications for the masses. Such projects are finally feasible today.

It took only 5 weeks and 5 people including myself to put together Fragment – a fully decentralized auction platform. We were able to do this because Fragment is based on The Open Network, or TON – a blockchain platform that is fast and efficient enough to host popular applications (unlike Ethereum, which unfortunately remains outdated and expensive even after its recent tweaks).

Fragment has been an amazing success, with 50 million USD worth of usernames sold there in less than a month. This week, Fragment will expand beyond usernames.

Telegram's next step is to build a set of decentralized tools, including non-custodial wallets and decentralized exchanges for millions of people to securely trade and store cryptocurrencies. This way we can fix the wrongs caused by the excessive centralization, which let down hundreds of thousands of cryptocurrency users.

The time when the inefficiencies of legacy platforms justified centralization should be long gone. With technologies like TON reaching their potential, the blockchain industry should be finally able to deliver on its core mission – giving the power back to the people.
