History and Overview of TON and TONcoin

TON 和 TONcoin 的歷史和概述

Toncoin (TON) is the native cryptocurrency of The Open Network, a decentralized layer-1 blockchain originally developed by Telegram in 2018 as the Telegram Open Network (TON). Following regulatory challenges leading Telegram to hand off the project in 2020, the community took over development and rebranded it as The Open Network.

Toncoin (TON) 是 The Open Network 的原生加密貨幣，這是一種去中心化的第一層區塊鏈，最初由 Telegram 於 2018 年開發，名為 Telegram Open Network (TON)。由於監管挑戰導致 Telegram 在 2020 年移交該項目，社區接管了開發並將其重新命名為開放網路。

The legal issues with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) regarding Telegram’s $1.7 billion initial coin offering (ICO) for Gram led Telegram to settle with the SEC, paying an $18.5 million fine and agreeing to return unspent funds to investors.

Telegram 為Gram 進行17 億美元的首次代幣發行(ICO) 與美國證券交易委員會(SEC) 發生法律問題，導致Telegram 與SEC 達成和解，支付1850 萬美元的罰款，並同意將未使用的資金退還給投資者。

After Telegram’s exit from TON, its takeover by the community, and the establishment of The TON Foundation, to promote and support the ongoing development of the network, the cryptocurrency, Gram, was renamed to Toncoin ($TON) as part of this transition.

在 Telegram 退出 TON、被社區接管以及 TON 基金會成立以促進和支持網絡的持續發展之後，作為過渡的一部分，加密貨幣 Gram 更名為 Toncoin ($TON)。

Barely four years after the rebrand, in May 2024, the TON network achieved a notable milestone by onboarding over 1 million users in a single day. This demonstrates its potential for rapid growth. Also, as of July 2024, the TON ecosystem hosted over 1000 decentralized applications (dApps) and has a DeFi total value locked (TVL) exceeding $760 million.

品牌更名後僅四年，即 2024 年 5 月，TON 網路實現了一個顯著的里程碑，單日新增用戶超過 100 萬。這表明了其快速增長的潛力。此外，截至 2024 年 7 月，TON 生態系統託管了 1000 多個去中心化應用程式 (dApp)，並且 DeFi 鎖定總價值 (TVL) 超過 7.6 億美元。

The strength of TON

TON的實力

The Open Network has experienced significant growth in its user base over the past year, driven by its integration with Telegram and the launch of engaging applications within the ecosystem. Apart from surpassing 1 Million users in a single day, in 2021, here’s an analysis of TON’s successes and what can make it achieve the 1 billion mark:

過去一年，在與 Telegram 的整合以及在生態系統內推出引人入勝的應用程式的推動下，開放網路的用戶群大幅成長。除了在 2021 年單日突破 100 萬用戶之外，以下是對 TON 的成功以及如何使其突破 10 億大關的分析：

Steady growth to 32 million Active Users

活躍用戶穩定成長至 3,200 萬

As of August 5, 2024, TON’s user base has surpassed 45 million wallets, showcasing steady growth and increasing adoption. The network has attracted a large user base due to its integration with Telegram, which has over 900 million monthly active users.

截至 2024 年 8 月 5 日，TON 的用戶群已超過 4,500 萬個錢包，呈現出穩定成長且不斷提高的採用率。由於與 Telegram 的集成，該網絡吸引了龐大的用戶群，Telegram 的每月活躍用戶超過 9 億。

This growth can be attributed to the new applications launched on the blockchain as well as those that migrated from their previous blockchains to TON. First on this list is Notcoin.

這種增長可歸因於區塊鏈上推出的新應用程式以及從以前的區塊鏈遷移到 TON 的應用程式。這份名單上的第一個是Notcoin。

Notcoin, built on TON, is a unique cryptocurrency project that gained significant popularity in 2024 by combining gaming, community engagement, and blockchain technology. Notcoin pioneered a tap-to-earn or clicker model on the Telegram messaging app, allowing users to earn tokens by tapping on a virtual coin on their screen.

Notcoin 建立在 TON 之上，是一個獨特的加密貨幣項目，透過結合遊戲、社區參與和區塊鏈技術，在 2024 年獲得了廣泛的歡迎。 Notcoin 在 Telegram 訊息應用程式上首創了點擊賺取或點擊器模式，允許用戶透過點擊螢幕上的虛擬硬幣來賺取代幣。

The game quickly went viral, attracting over 35 million users at its peak, with more than 6 million daily active users (DAUs). The simplicity of the game and its integration with the popular Telegram platform made it an instant hit, as users could earn real cryptocurrency without any initial investment.

遊戲迅速走紅，高峰時期吸引了超過 3500 萬用戶，每日活躍用戶 (DAU) 超過 600 萬。遊戲的簡單性及其與流行的 Telegram 平台的整合使其立即受到歡迎，因為用戶無需任何初始投資即可賺取真正的加密貨幣。

Other projects, though their tokens are not yet launched, include Hamster Kombat, Catizen, Tapswap, and Blum. These games have garnered millions of users, with Hamster Kombat alone boasting an impressive 239 million registered users.

其他項目（儘管其代幣尚未推出）包括 Hamster Kombat、Catizen、Tapswap 和 Blum。這些遊戲已經吸引了數百萬用戶，其中光是《Hamster Kombat》就擁有令人印象深刻的 2.39 億註冊用戶。

The presence of these projects also led to exponential growth in active addresses on TON from 150,000 in September 2023 to over 1.2 million by July 2024. Particularly, in June 2024, TON’s daily active addresses peaked at a record 568,300, edging out Ethereum’s (without the Layer 2s) for the first time.

這些項目的存在也導致TON 上的活躍地址呈指數級增長，從2023 年9 月的15 萬增加到2024 年7 月的超過120 萬。達到創紀錄的568,300 個峰值，超過了以太坊（沒有第 2 層）第一次。

Transaction speed and fees

交易速度和費用

TON showed an impressive transaction speed capability of more than 100,000 transactions per second (TPS) during a public test verified by Certik. However, the average TPS according to TONscan is at 70 which is above 12.7 for Ethereum and less than 806 for Solana.

在 Certik 驗證的公開測試中，TON 展示了每秒超過 100,000 筆交易 (TPS) 的令人印象深刻的交易速度能力。然而，根據 TONscan 的平均 TPS 為 70，高於以太坊的 12.7，低於 Solana 的 806。

Transaction fees on the TON network are significantly lower than those of Ethereum and Bitcoin, ranging from $0.01 to $0.05 per transaction. The network’s focus on scalability and efficiency, combined with low transaction fees, makes TON an attractive option for users and developers.

TON 網路上的交易費用明顯低於以太坊和比特幣，每筆交易從 0.01 美元到 0.05 美元不等。該網絡注重可擴展性和效率，加上低廉的交易費用，使 TON 對用戶和開發人員來說成為有吸引力的選擇。

Ecosystem integration with Telegram, and USDT

與 Telegram 和 USDT 的生態系統集成

TON’s integration with the Telegram messaging app, which has over 950 million users, gives it a significant advantage in terms of user adoption and ecosystem growth. This integration allows TON to leverage Telegram’s existing user base

TON 與擁有超過 9.5 億用戶的 Telegram 訊息應用程式集成，使其在用戶採用率和生態系統成長方面具有顯著優勢。這種整合使 TON 能夠利用 Telegram 的現有用戶群
