TON is a Layer 1 blockchain created by the Telegram community.

TON is a decentralized layer-1 blockchain designed for mass adoption. It offers ultra-fast transactions, tiny fees, user-friendly apps, and is environmentally friendly. TON is scalable and shardable, growing without performance loss. The TON Foundation, a community-driven group, has been developing the technology since 2020. Toncoin is the native cryptocurrency of the TON network.

Originally designed for easy-to-use applications, TON allows users to buy, send, and store funds. Clients pay transaction fees and use TON for payments and validation. TON uses proof-of-stake (PoS) for scalability and reliability. It provides fast, transparent, and secure payment services with minimal fees and third-party applications.

TON has a multi-level structure based on sharding, using multiple subnets for specific purposes. This avoids unverified blocks and speeds up tasks. The TON network consists of master, work, and shard chains.
