​Hipo is now live on Mainnet and is celebrating with a unique NFT campaign

Hipo, a liquid staking protocol on TON with roots in esteemed TON Community projects like DoraHacks and Hack-a-TONx, has successfully launched on Mainnet, achieving $1.5 million in Total Value Locked (TVL) just a few days after launch.

Hipo offers users the ability to stake Toncoin and receive hTON in return. hTON tokens represent your stake and can be used within the DeFi ecosystem while still earning rewards. Fully open source, Hipo prioritizes transparency and user safety, having successfully passed rigorous security audits.

Hipo aims to elevate liquid staking on TON, setting a new standard in competition. Additionally, they have independently developed high-quality FunC smart contracts to showcase their commitment and resilience to the TON Community. Also, as they strongly believe in community-driven growth, they have already rewarded contributors with 1% of their governance token for reaching the first $1 million in TVL.

To celebrate their Mainnet launch, Hipo has introduced an exclusive "99 Hipo Hard Rock" NFT collection and will reward 99 lucky users with unique NFTs. These NFTs could potentially airdrop Hipo governance tokens in the future.

​Building a Web3 ecosystem in Telegram with Toncoin

On September 13, at TOKEN2049 in Singapore, TON Foundation and Telegram started working together to put crypto in every pocket. The heart of this collaboration is the deep integration and promotion of a TON-based Web3 ecosystem in Telegram.

TON Space
TON Space, the self-custodial version of @wallet, was launched. It is now accessible directly from the Telegram menu for existing @wallet users. Starting in November, it will become the default for all Telegram users, outside of the United States.

Bridging Web2 and Web3
Historically, crypto appealed primarily to a tech-savvy audience. TON seeks to change this, creating a bridge between Web2 and Web3. By building a Web3 ecosystem in Telegram, TON is making it convenient for millions to own their digital identity and assets. Meeting users where they are, instead of building complicated Web3 experiences the masses will never use.

Web3 SuperApp
Combining the TON Ecosystem with Telegram creates the first decentralized and global SuperApp. Telegram provides the user experience layer with Mini Apps. TON brings the Web3 projects and backend to manage and simplify digital transactions on a massive scale.

500 million active user vision
Being among the fastest-growing mobile apps globally, Telegram is on track to reach 1.5 billion users a month in the next five years. TON Community’s vision is to onboard 30% of these users to TON by 2028, adding 500 million users to Web3. 33x the current 15 million active web3 users.

The Internet of Ownership
The vision is to reshape digital ownership, interaction and transactions globally using Telegram Mini Apps and TON Blockchain. This platform represents a new decentralized digital nation, with its own citizens, economy and digital rights.

With the synergy of Telegram's massive user base and TON's unique approach to Web3, the future in which Web3 is an everyday reality for billions is fast approaching.

​The architecture behind TON

A standout feature of The Open Network (TON) is its high scalability and throughput achieved through dynamic sharding.

TON Blockchain consists of one masterchain and up to 2^32 workchains, each further divisible into 2^60 shardchains. This design makes TON a blockchain of blockchains, facilitating diverse and interoperable operations. Here's a breakdown of its core components:

▪️ Masterchain: The core directory and primary chain, storing network configurations and final states of all workchains.

▪️ Workchain: The Masterchain splits into individual chains called Workchains. These are customized blockchains tailored for specific transactions or use cases.

▪️ Shardchain: Sub-chains of workchains, identified by a 60-bit shard prefix, allowing for extensive scalability.

TON's architecture addresses scalability and transaction speed issues many blockchains face today. Stay tuned for TON’s first public performance test on October 31, 2023, where TON aims to set a new world record for most transactions per second. Read more here.
