TON scalable DeFi standards are here! For the last three months, we've been working to locate a proper solution for creating asynchronous scalable DeFi in TON. The discussion was open and available on GitHub, all comments were considered and many of them influenced the final standard. Today, we are happy to present ready-made standards and examples of smart contract implementation for Fungible, Semi-Fungible, and Non-Fungible tokens as well as applied contracts for NFT-marketplaces and ICOs. TON tokens built on a new architecture: they are fast, cheap, provide new features, and ultra-scalable.

👨‍💻 Developer Program Q1 2022 Report We’re happy to share what’s been done in this area: — API and SDK significantly improved. — TON documentation revisited: from basic concepts to Toncoin payment acceptance code examples. — New network explorers emerged. — Dev tools — e.g., MyLocalTON — majorly revamped. New perfect tools such as toncli and IDEA Plugin were delivered by developer community itself. — Rules for publishing apps and dApps on the ton.app catalogue were eased. From now on, anyone can list their product following a simplified moderation procedure. Community channels issue round-ups of newly arrived TON products. — Big work on TON browser extension as one of the main ways to interact with dApps. — New independent dev platform tonic.cx, which hosts AMA sessions from time to time. In general, we see a notable growth of chats and other communication channels for TON developers in many languages. — Special attention is paid to competitions among developers. @toncontests keeps organizing more and more contests, the most recent of which – CodeTON on Codeforces, saw over 11,000 programmers participate. At the time of writing, there’s an ongoing Smart Challenge with a prize fund of $30,000 — a great way to get acquainted with the FunC language that’s used for writing TON smart contracts. We’re thrilled to see new products and teams along with pull requests to open-source repos coming in volumes. We’re not stopping at this. TON developers and product creators will always be one of the top priorities in The Open Network.

We welcome hundreds of NFT projects created by various teams in TON. You can check them out on new 3rd party marketplaces like getgems.io or disintar.io. And NFTs are already supported by some blockchain explorers as well. Moreover, 3rd party launchpads like rocketon.org have started emerging. Now, when token standards have received release status, we invite all developers to implement and launch their projects on the mainnet. In the coming days, deployment instructions and guidelines will be published for NFT authors. More interesting things are coming further 😏
