2023-12-07 15:33:27 TON20 Inscription Use-case on TON
Starting on December 5th, The Open Network (TON) experienced an incredible spike in network activity, thanks to the BRC20 Bitcoin Ordinals type of inscription use-case, called TON20, launched by the Tonano team.

Producing over 2 million transactions increased our network usage by 61 times within just half an hour. TON Community is proud to witness a creative use case take-off in TON driven by independent participants in the ecosystem.

Moreover, this sudden growth has revealed many interesting insights for our blockchain. Dynamic sharding technology worked as expected. At its peak, TON split into eleven shardchains, stabilizing at five shardchains to handle the heavy load.

At the same time, this phenomenon also revealed where the community should work to swiftly onboard the exponential increase in network activity expected in the near future. Network validators must ensure that TON is supported by hardware capable of scaling to the performance demanded by high usage.

Network Performance Delays
This peak interest also came with a severe congestion of TON network, where validation was severely delayed even though the network validators are still producing blocks.

Popular wallets like @Wallet and Tonkeeper have paused the service temporarily.

TON core developers are aware of the issues affecting users and are working on TON blockchain. An initial technical report is available here. TON core team will be providing us with a further update within the next 24 hours.

We thank you and the community for your patience and unwavering support as we go through the growing pains together, preparing for the unprecedented growth season expected in the near future. Открыть/Комментировать

2023-12-05 22:37:39 Please note that due to the enormous on-chain activity, there is a temporary pause on TON withdrawals. We are closely collaborating with the TON Core team to restore full service as soon as possible.

Our USDT and BTC operations remain fully functional and unaffected. Your funds, including Toncoin, are safe and secure, as always.

We'll inform you all as soon as everything is back to normal and appreciate your understanding and patience Открыть/Комментировать

2023-11-17 17:43:09 Wallet would like to remind you that our support team will never contact you first

Scammers are constantly looking for new ways to steal personal data and funds. To avoid falling for any tricks, it’s important to stay vigilant and keep in mind a few simple rules:

● Always block anyone who contacts you claiming to be the “Wallet Support Service.” The Wallet team will never DM you first.

● Wallet Support will never ask you to authorize your account. If you are ever asked to “confirm your identity” or “verify a transfer,” be aware that these individuals are likely scammers.

● Set up two-factor authentication in Telegram and never share your password with anyone – absolutely no one! And remember rule #1!

Important: Wallet Support is only available at this link: https://t.me/wallet_supportbot

While Wallet has implemented various security measures, we strongly recommend not to neglect basic digital safety rules. This significantly reduces the likelihood of falling prey to a scam. Открыть/Комментировать

2023-11-15 19:17:05 Jettons: What are they and what are they used for

In The Open Network Ecosystem, there are hundreds of different tokens. Unlike other blockchains, these tokens are called “jettons” in TON. Here we explain their advantages, how they differ from Toncoin, and where they can be most easily purchased:

● Toncoin is the main cryptocurrency of TON Blockchain.
● A jetton is a token issued on TON Blockchain.
● You can swap, store and send any jettons in TON Space.
● To perform any action with a jetton, such as making a transfer, you have to pay a small commission in Toncoin.

What are jettons used for?

Many services in TON Ecosystem have their own jettons. Typically, holding these jettons offers some advantages – for example, the PUNK jetton allows you to participate in closed tournaments, while the STON jetton gives you the right to receive exclusive digital Collectibles. Also, many jettons are used to store value and can be traded on various exchanges, like Ston.fi or DeDust.

How and where can I buy jettons?

The most convenient way to get some jettons is directly in Telegram. Wallet users can easily exchange jettons in TON Space. Just go into your non-custodial space, tap “Swap” and select the jettons you want! Wallet will automatically handle the rest of the exchange! Открыть/Комментировать

2023-11-10 18:08:07 Introducing swaps in TON Space

Today, all TON Space users have access to the swap feature, allowing them to buy a wide range of assets within Telegram. Swaps are provided in partnership with Ston.fi, a leading TON-based DEX, with future plans to offer them through a DEX aggregation in 2024. All TON Space users now have access to the following features:

● Jetton swaps directly within the TON Space.
● View in-depth information on each transaction, including rates, slippage and price impact.
● Access to the full set of jettons available from STON.fi pools.

You can now easily swap Toncoin for jUSDT or any other TON blockchain jetton with just a few taps, all within Telegram.

2023-11-10 11:18:45 Wallet continues it’s integration to the Telegram settings menu

In September, we announced plans to distribute Wallet to all Telegram users. Today, during The Gateway conference in Dubai, we're excited to announce that Wallet has now started its global rollout within the Telegram settings menu.

This is a big step towards our goal of making Web3 accessible to everyone. Telegram integration symbolizes our vision for mass adoption of products and services based on TON Blockchain and was previously confirmed by Telegram founder Pavel Durov.

The rollout will happen in stages. From today, Wallet will be available in the Telegram settings menu for users in some countries of Africa and Latin America. In Q1 2024, Wallet will expand to more regions, including MENA and Asia. By the end of Q2 2024, Wallet is expected to be accessible worldwide.

Wallet's integration into the Telegram's settings menu is a significant step toward making blockchain technology as user-friendly as possible. Telegram users in the selected regions will now have direct access to Wallet right within Telegram’s settings menu. That means, sending and storing crypto assets will be as simple as sending a picture within a chat. Открыть/Комментировать

2023-11-09 22:57:46 Maintenance notice: Wallet will be temporarily unavailable today from 23:00 UTC to 23:50 UTC for some essential updates and improvements. Rest assured, your funds are safe and secure. Thank you for your patience.
