BitMart Research: Introduction and analysis of the Ton ecosystem

【Introduction Of Ton】

The Development History of Ton

In 2018, Telegram introduced the Telegram Open Network (TON) with the aim of establishing a robust and scalable blockchain platform. The company successfully raised approximately $1.7 billion by selling 2.9 billion Grams tokens, setting a record for the highest fundraising amount in ICO history. However, in 2019, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) charged Telegram with conducting an unregistered securities offering. As a result of this legal action, Telegram reached a settlement with the SEC in 2020, agreeing to pay an $18.5 million fine and abandoning the Telegram Open Network project, as well as returning the raised funds. Consequently, Telegram ceased its involvement with The Open Network.(Data Source:https://ton.org/en/mining )

To ensure an equitable and decentralized distribution of TON’s technology, the Telegram team took the unique step of placing all blockchain tokens into smart contracts, making them available for mining by anyone. Commencing in June 2020, the majority of circulated Ton tokens (98.55% of the total supply) were made accessible for mining. These tokens were allocated to special Giver intelligent contracts, enabling individuals with the necessary resources to participate in the mining process. Over a two-year period, users were able to mine approximately 200,000 TON daily until the final TON was minted, signifying the completion of TON’s initial distribution phase.

Telegram relinquished control of the Telegram Open Network to the community, and developers from the NewTON community continued its development. The NewTON community was subsequently rebranded as the TON Foundation, and the Telegram Open Network was renamed The Open Network, now recognized as the TON blockchain. This transition signifies that TON’s advancement is no longer reliant on Telegram but is instead driven by the community, laying the groundwork for the future expansion of the TON blockchain.

Core Features of Ton

The Ton ecosystem, a unique blockchain platform integrated with Telegram, distinguishes itself through the utilization of Telegram’s extensive user base, sharding technology, and multi-chain architecture. These key attributes, in conjunction with its high-performance technical framework, position the Ton ecosystem as an ideal platform for the development of GameFi and meme projects, providing a competitive advantage in the market.

Key Feature 1: Broad User Base

Built upon Telegram, the Ton ecosystem leverages the platform’s vast user base directly, presenting a rapidly expanding market for new projects and services. This inherent user base facilitates efficient user engagement and market penetration for Ton ecosystem projects, essential for their successful advancement.

Key Feature 2: High Efficiency and Scalability

Through the use of sharding technology and a multi-chain architecture, Ton achieves high efficiency and scalability, enabling the network to accommodate numerous transactions and operations. This capability to effectively handle growing user and transaction volumes while maintaining system stability and performance positions the Ton ecosystem to excel under high loads and large-scale transactions, ensuring a seamless user experience.

Key Feature 3: Low Entry Barrier and User-Friendly Interface

The Ton ecosystem’s user-friendly design presents a low entry barrier for users. Leveraging their existing Telegram accounts, users can seamlessly participate in Ton ecosystem projects without the need for additional registration or login procedures. The streamlined payment system further simplifies the participation procedure, facilitating swift and secure transactions. This user-centric approach not only attracts more users to Ton ecosystem projects but also enhances overall user satisfaction.

【Introduction Of High Potential Projects In Ton】

The Ton ecosystem currently comprises 752 active projects spanning various sectors such as GameFi, Meme, Infrastructure, DEX, DeFi, and NFT. This article examines prominent projects within the Ton ecosystem as well as analyzes their operational frameworks, token performance in the secondary market, Total Value Locked (TVL), and community involvement.(Data Source:https://ton.org/en/mining )

GameFi/MEME

1.NotCoin

Overview

Notcoin is a popular click game on Telegram. Users engage in mining Notcoin by tapping their phone screens. Since its launch on January 1, 2024, the game has gained broad attention, attracting over 35 million participants and maintaining an average daily active user count of 5 million.(Data Source:https://notco.in/ )

Token Information

According to May 17 CMC data, Notcoin’s 24-hour trading volume reached approximately 1.27 billion, with a circulating market cap of about 705 million.

Highlights

Notcoin’s appeal to 35 million users is attributed to its straightforward click-to-earn model.

Users can initiate the game by joining a Telegram channel. This substantial user base on Telegram underscores the ecosystem’s significant growth potential. Leveraging meme-driven hype in a short term can be more impactful than focusing on TVL growth. The low entry barrier enables a larger segment of Telegram users to engage with virtual currency.

【Prospects and Challenges】

The TON ecosystem is currently facing a series of challenges and opportunities with its progress and development. While there are a few successful projects such as Notcoin, it is evident that a need for more compelling and innovative projects to attract greater user and investor participation within the ecosystem is necessary. One critical challenge lies in the lack of liquidity of ecosystem project tokens, as most tokens are concentrated within TON’s decentralized exchanges. Such a concentration can result in significant price volatility and hinder users from effectively managing their trading and liquidity. It is imperative to attract external trading platforms and liquidity providers to join the TON ecosystem.

Nevertheless, the TON ecosystem holds significant potential for future development. Its strong user base, efficient blockchain technology, and user-friendly design serve as a solid foundation for growth. If the quantity and quality of ecosystem projects continue to increase with liquidity issues addressed, the TON ecosystem will be poised to emerge as a flourishing and influential blockchain ecosystem, delivering greater innovation and value to users and developers.

To realize this vision, the TON ecosystem must persist in promoting project diversification and enhancing quality, and meatime attract high-quality projects to improve user experience. Furthermore, it is imperative to forge stronger collaborations with external trading platforms and liquidity providers in order to increase token liquidity and stimulate market activity. Through those concerted efforts, the TON ecosystem is primed to achieve substantial success and establish itself as a leading force in the blockchain industry.
