TON, short for The Open Network, is a layer-1 blockchain that Telegram originally developed. It is built as a network of connected chains. A main chain coordinates the system, and workchains and shards split the load so that more transactions can be processed in parallel. Smart contracts run as separate actors that communicate by messages. TON is not EVM-based, and tokens follow the Jetton standard, which is also how USDT is issued on the network.
The native token is GRAM, formerly known as Toncoin. It pays network fees and can be staked, which is why liquid staking is one of the main DeFi categories on TON. Fees are paid in GRAM, and the exact cost varies, so check your wallet before you confirm a transaction. At the time of writing, DeFi TVL on TON was about $43.0M, a modest figure next to the largest chains.
The native ecosystem is known for its Telegram connection and its staking apps. Tonstakers, Hipo, KTON, Stakee and bemo offer liquid staking. STON.fi and DeDust are the main decentralized exchanges, and Storm Trade offers perpetual futures. Ethena tsUSDe brings a yield-bearing dollar to the chain. TAC Cross Chain Layer, Symbiosis and Orbit Bridge link TON to other networks. Several big centralized exchanges, including Binance, OKX and Bitget, also appear on this page because they support TON.
