Since starting my research into @ton in 2021, I've witnessed the rise of the TON ecosystem. 🚀🚀

In 2021, TON made its debut on Uniswap and PancakeSwap, two prominent DEXs, and was listed on several major exchanges, including MEXC, Bybit, OKX, and KuCoin. Looking back, TON was a unique blockchain without ERC20 or ERC721 tokens.

As time progressed, the TON team accelerated their efforts in 2022, introducing Jetton as the ERC20 token standard on TON, along with an NFT token standard. Notably, when TON DNS was designed in 2018, NFTs weren't popular yet, so DNS was controlled in a very fundamental way. By 2022, the TON team had redesigned DNS as NFTs.

Entering 2023, TON focused on two development directions: TON Connect and Telegram Mini App. With a blockchain foundation already supporting FT and NFT, TON Connect became the gateway for connecting wallets and Dapps, while Telegram Mini App emerged as the optimal development platform for all applications.

Half a year later, the largest wallet bot on Telegram has evolved into a wallet mini app. At Token 2049 in 2023, two announcements were made: first, the integration of the Wallet into Telegram; second, the Wallet would not just be a centralized bot but also the decentralized wallet TON Space.

This reveals that Telegram is not just a messaging app but also seamlessly integrates Web3 elements, including private keys, addresses, Wallet Connect, and numerous Mini Apps.

With up to 800 million active users on Telegram, we are hosting a series of TON Hacker House workshops in 2024, with prizes totaling up to $1 million for those delving deep into Telegram and TON. 🤑🤑
