TON retires legacy Toncoin Bridge

Starting May 10, 2025, users will no longer be able to bridge $TON to Ethereum or BNB Chain. Claims from past transfers will stay open. Inbound bridging remains live for now.

Toncoin Bridge was critical for TON’s early growth:

▪️ Before CEX listings, DeFi on TON, and USDt-TON 
▪️ Helped 100M+ $TON flow across chains
▪️ Powered wrapped assets like jUSDT

Today, TON’s ecosystem has matured. With native USDT, thriving DEXs, and new cross-chain integrations like LayerZero, Stargate, and Symbiosis, users no longer need to leave the network.

A huge thank you to everyone who helped us get here.
