​TON Ecosystem Roundup

As TON continues to evolve and expand, this week brings several updates from four ecosystem projects: Gagarin Launchpad, Hipo, CatizenAI, and Tongochi. Let's take a closer look at their latest updates:

Gagarin Launchpad
On March 1, 2024, Gagarin Launchpad launched the TON-EVM Bridge. This bridge facilitates a connection between the Binance Smart Chain and TON, enabling projects to issue tokens across various EVM-compatible networks. This functionality not only broadens project reach but also contributes to the growth of the TON Ecosystem.

Hipo
Over the past 30 days, Hipo has showcased a high and stable Annual Percentage Yield (APY) and has achieved a Total Value Locked (TVL) of 2.76 million. With a focus on transparency, Hipo is now featured in the DefiLlama yield rankings. To view Hipo's statistics and monitor their progress, visit this page.

CatizenAI
The P2E TON-based game and Meow Metaverse, CatizenAI, has launched its Wipe Beta Test. Within its first week, the Telegram bot game attracted 160,000 users and facilitated over 50,000 on-chain transactions. As a Play-to-Airdrop project combining elements of the Metaverse, GameFi, and AI, CatizenAI aims to leverage the TON Ecosystem's dynamics and elevate the GameFi industry.

Tongochi
Tongochi is preparing to launch the Closed Beta Testnet for its second game, Zombie Town, featuring a unique burning event where users can acquire special NFT keys by burning tokens. These keys grant eligibility to participate in the testnet and a chance to share a 1,000 TON reward pool. Building on the success of its first P2E game, which involves breeding mutant frogs, Zombie Town will allow players to use their trained frogs as weapons against zombies, earning rewards in the process.

Projects with the fastest TVL growth
The recent introduction of The Open League incentives has resulted in a significant increase in the Total Value Locked (TVL) across the TON Ecosystem's liquidity pools. In just ten days, three projects have seen their TVL grow by over $1 million each: TON Raffles, an all-in-one Jetton platform providing Jetton and NFT launchpad; DeDust, a leading DEX on TON; and GRAM, the first Proof of Work (POW) Jetton on TON.
