TON/USDt 5M Rewards Program Begins

TON Foundation has launched a 5M Toncoin DeFi incentive program to boost adoption of USDt-TON and drive deeper liquidity for TON’s DeFi ecosystem.

The program collaborates with the leading DeFi projects, including decentralized exchanges STON.fi and DeDust, as well as staking protocols Tonstakers and Bemo.

▪️ tsTON + USDt
▪️ stTON + USDt

Participants can benefit from staking rewards, trading fees, and additional incentives. Read the full guidelines and start farming today!

17M users claimed DOGS tokens

In the last 2 weeks, our daily active user addresses hit 1.1M several times, with single-day transactions peaking at 14.4M. The DOGS token distribution played a key role in this surge. DOGS token is now held by 4.5M unique wallets on TON, putting it in a unique position — it has the most unique token holders on any chain ever, and it achieved this in just 2 weeks. Only USDt on TRON and Ethereum have more holders than DOGS.

DOGS, a meme project on TON inspired by Pavel Durov’s iconic dog drawing, has led to the largest meme TGE in cryptocurrency history.

▪️ 53M users engaged with the DOGS Mini App
▪️ 42.2M were eligible for the token airdrop
▪️ 17M users claimed their airdropped tokens
▪️ 4.5M unique holders

These levels of user engagement were unimaginable in Web3 before. In September, we anticipate even larger TGEs for Catizen and Hamster Kombat, which could bring tens or even hundreds of millions of users to the blockchain for the first time. The network will undoubtedly face more technical pressures and possibly some unforeseen issues, but we are unwavering in our commitment to building and addressing these challenges as we move toward mass adoption.
