Toncoin (TON) Now Listed on Bitso: A Gateway to the Future of Blockchain

We’re thrilled to announce that Toncoin (TON), the native cryptocurrency of The Open Network (TON), is now listed on Bitso! This marks an exciting milestone for TON as it continues to make waves in the world of decentralized blockchain technology. Known for its innovative architecture and seamless integration with Telegram, TON has become one of the most scalable and efficient blockchain platforms in the market, providing infrastructure for decentralized applications (dApps), payments, DeFi solutions, and more. And now, with Toncoin available on Bitso, it’s easier than ever for users to access and participate in TON’s ecosystem.

What is Toncoin and The Open Network?

Toncoin (TON) is the native cryptocurrency of The Open Network (TON), a decentralized Layer 1 blockchain platform initially developed by Telegram and now maintained by an open-source community. TON has gained significant traction thanks to its connection with Telegram, making blockchain technology accessible to over 950 million users worldwide.

While Telegram provides support for the TON ecosystem, it does not directly control or develop the blockchain, ensuring that TON remains a community-driven platform. Its innovative sharding technology enables high scalability, with the network currently processing around 45 transactions per second (TPS). In September 2024, TON’s capacity increased to 200 TPS, allowing for even faster and more efficient operations.

With Toncoin (TON) at its core, The Open Network’s ecosystem supports a range of activities including payments, decentralized finance (DeFi), gaming, and NFT applications. The network’s low transaction fees—often just fractions of a cent—ensure that users can carry out microtransactions and engage with digital assets in a cost-effective manner.

Key Features of The Open Network (TON)

• Telegram Integration: Seamless Blockchain Access One of TON’s most unique features is its deep integration with Telegram. This gives users access to the world’s largest messaging platform, making blockchain technology easier to adopt and more accessible to millions of users. This integration allows users to send and receive Toncoin directly within Telegram, eliminating the need for third-party wallets or exchanges.

• Scalability and Low Transaction Costs Thanks to TON’s cutting-edge sharding technology, the network can handle a large number of transactions without compromising on speed or efficiency. This scalability, coupled with its low transaction fees, makes TON a strong contender for decentralized payments, DeFi applications, and other use cases that demand fast, low-cost solutions.

• Expanding Ecosystem and Growing Community The TON ecosystem is rapidly expanding, with wallets, MiniApps, DeFi platforms, games, and other applications already being built on the network. TON has cultivated an active community that spans across Telegram, GitHub, and social media channels. As the ecosystem continues to grow, TON’s community and developer base are poised to drive ongoing innovation, pushing the platform towards even greater adoption.

How Toncoin (TON) Can Transform Everyday Transactions
