TON, The Open Network, एक Layer 1 है जो तेज़ और कम लागत वाले payments और apps के लिए sharding के आधार पर डिज़ाइन किया गया है, जिसकी जड़ें Telegram टीम द्वारा शुरू किए गए प्रोजेक्ट में हैं।
The Open Network, known as TON, is a Layer 1 originally designed by the team behind Telegram and now maintained by an independent community foundation. It is built around sharding to handle high transaction volumes, with a focus on fast, low-cost payments and consumer applications.

TON पर DeFi प्रोटोकॉल में लॉक वैल्यू. Updated Jun 8, 2026. स्रोत: DefiLlama.
TON uses a Proof of Stake model where validators stake TON to produce and verify blocks under a Byzantine Fault Tolerant protocol. Its defining feature is a sharded architecture, sometimes described as infinite sharding, where the network can split into multiple shard chains to spread load. A masterchain coordinates the shards so the whole system stays in sync.

Its defining feature is a sharded architecture, sometimes described as infinite sharding, where the network can split into multiple shard chains to spread load. A masterchain coordinates the shards so the whole system stays in sync.
Sharded architecture
TON divides work across shard chains that can split or merge based on load, with a masterchain coordinating them. This design is intended to keep the network fast as activity grows.
