💎 AppKit | Alpha Announcement
TON is the blockchain built into Telegram. Apps built on TON can reach Telegram's billion+ users directly.
Until now, every team had to build wallet connections, transaction handling, and DeFi integrations from scratch. Weeks of work before a single line of product code.
Today we're announcing AppKit alpha to change that.
What's live now:
▪️ Wallet management and transaction sending
▪️ DeFi integration (swaps, staking)
▪️ TON Connect support
▪️ TypeScript and React support
WalletKit is also production-ready for wallet developers on iOS, Android, React Native, and Web.
More features coming at Gateway (May 1-2).

Building this platform brought me a surprising amount of joy. It was genuinely fun. In many ways, it reminded me…

We are monitoring the situation in the Middle East and its potential impact on our Gateway event in Dubai on May 1 and 2. All options are under consideration. Safety for our community is our number one priority at TON Foundation. We will share a final decision with you by March 20th. Thank you.

The TON Rust Node by RSquad Blockchain Lab is a production-grade implementation of the TON protocol built for modern, cloud-native environments and scalable validator operations.
With container-first deployment, Docker images and Helm charts, spinning up a node can take less than 10 minutes, even without deep TON-specific experience.
On top of that, Nodectl provides a unified control plane to manage validator fleets, covering elections, staking, governance, and analytics.
Security is also built in: private keys are never stored unencrypted, with HashiCorp Vault integration and a clear separation between execution and custody.
Infrastructure like this is what helps the TON ecosystem scale.

Unfortunately, due to the Middle East conflict and safety conditions in the UAE area, we have made the decision to cancel Gateway Dubai, originally scheduled for May 1 and 2, 2026. This was a difficult call, but the safety and well-being of our community always comes first.
If you purchased a ticket to Gateway through Luma, Moongate or Tribute, or booked hotel reservations through promocode, you will receive a refund within the next 14 days. For further questions, please contact: gateway@ton.org.
We are currently examining different formats to produce a Gateway event before the end of this year. An announcement will be forthcoming in the near future. We look forward to seeing you soon.

Payments shouldn’t require every builder to implement the same infrastructure.
In Telegram apps, that often meant creating wallets, checkout flows and settlement logic from scratch.
TON Pay simplifies the integration
One SDK for Mini Apps, bots, and backend services. One-time payments, recurring payments, and subscriptions. Non-custodial, with funds remaining under user control.
Focus on the product, not the payment stack.

IdentityHub published a report exploring Telegram as an emerging interface for AI agents.
Instead of building standalone dashboards, developers can run workflows, automation and agents directly inside chat.
For builders on TON, this model aligns with bots, Mini Apps and agent-based services deployed where users already interact.

Sub-second finality: how to adapt your project
TON is rolling out Catchain 2.0, a consensus upgrade targeting sub-second block finality on mainnet in early April 2026.
What's changing:
– Block interval: ~2.5s → 200–400ms
– Finalization lag: ~10s → ~1s
– Throughput: up to ~5 blocks/sec
But a faster chain alone won't help users if apps still rely on old API.
We've published a step-by-step adoption guide covering:
🔹 Wallets & dApps: switch to TON Center Streaming API v2. Handle all four statuses:
🔹 Self-hosted nodes & liteservers: update to the latest release with Catchain 2.0 support before mainnet activation.
🔹 Indexers: prepare for up to 10x more blocks/sec. Connect to testnet and verify no lag accumulates over 30+ minutes.
Testnet already runs at sub-second speed. Test there now.
MyTonWallet and tonscan.org already use Streaming API and have nearly halved their reaction time, even before the mainnet upgrade.
