2023-01-14 19:00:25 First Native Staking

MyTonWallet becomes the first wallet to provide staking on the official smart contract.

Staking is wholly decentralized and managed by the official TON Nominator smart contract. Neither the developers nor anyone else has access to the funds on your deposit.

Reserved funds are used to keep the network operating using its proof-of-stake mechanism. Not only do the nominators receive passive income from holding TON, but also directly influence the overall growth and development of The Open Network by participating in voting.

TON holders with a balance of 10,000 or more can make their first deposits through the MyTonWallet interface. A new version of the official smart contract is expected soon, in which the lower deposit threshold will be significantly reduced.

We encourage new users to try MyTonWallet right now. In turn, we are getting back to labs to please you again with new exclusive features very soon.

Say hello to the newest decentralized exchange (DEX) on TON from the team at Tegro.

The platform’s utility token is TGR.
Liquidity pools (guide).

The DEX is already listed on DeFi aggregator DefiLlama, which displays the TON network’s TVL.

2023-01-11 18:29:35 The latest @wallet bot update: a new interface, a QR code scanner, and t.me domains

The team behind the @wallet Telegram bot has released a new update that delivers quality-of-life improvements to make your crypto experience even more accessible.

A new interface

The user experience wouldn’t be complete without a streamlined interface. In this latest update, the UI now contains a “Paste” button, which makes entering long wallet addresses much smoother.

Moreover, the send crypto screen has a built-in QR code scanner.

TON Web3 addresses

Speaking of long addresses — @wallet has integrated support for short human-readable “username.t.me” domains to send and receive Toncoin, eliminating the possibility of bungling long addresses or copying the wrong one. You’ll have to visit Telegram’s domain platform, Fragment, to purchase a domain, but more information is available here.

Transaction history

Rounding out this line-up of solid improvements is a revamped transaction history. After making transactions with your Telegram contacts, you’ll now see their avatars instead of colored circles — a nice little touch making your history more visually pleasant.

To experience these new features, you must update the Telegram app to its latest version. Open / Comment

2023-01-10 19:09:09 The results are in for the Token Bridge smart contract competition.

For two weeks, developers and programming specialists racked their brains in an attempt to find potential weaknesses in the Token Bridge’s smart contracts.

By the end of the competition, organizers had received four submissions in the Solidity programming language and six in FunC.

However, none of the submissions uncovered any critical vulnerabilities.

The competition did recognize three individuals for suggesting minor optimizations to the smart contracts, each of whom took home 200 Toncoin. Open / Comment
