Deep dives
Understanding the TON Ecosystem
The TON ecosystem is closely related to Telegram but functions independently, symbolizing the growing intersection of messaging and blockchain technology. TON began as the Telegram Open Network, but due to legal challenges, it was handed over to an open-source community that rebranded it. This ecosystem focuses on creating simple, user-friendly crypto applications within Telegram, leveraging its massive user base for everyday activities like gaming and shopping. It uses Telegram's Mini Apps platform as a frontend, enabling a seamless integration of web3 features into environments where people are most active online.
