💎 TON Rust Node is Now Available
Built by RSquad Blockchain Lab. A full implementation of the TON protocol that's production-grade, cloud-native, and designed for scale.
What's Inside:
✅ Deployment: Container-first and Kubernetes-native, with Docker images and Helm Charts out of the box. Any DevOps engineer can launch a node ready to sync in under 10 minutes, no TON-specific knowledge required.
✅ Management: Nodectl gives you a single control plane for your entire fleet. Elections, stake management, governance, and analytics. Configure once, run everywhere.
✅ Security: Private keys are never stored unencrypted. HashiCorp Vault integration, with execution and custody separated architecturally.
Deploying one node takes the same effort as deploying a hundred.

$20,000. Two tracks. Two weeks.
Track 1: Agent Infrastructure ($10K)
Build tooling and primitives that help power the next generation of AI applications on TON. This can include wallet integrations, agent coordination, payment flows, developer tools, and other core infrastructure.
Track 2: User facing Agents ($10K)
Build AI agents that users can interact with directly inside Telegram. This can include commerce agents, payment bots, assistants, trading tools, automation products, and other practical AI-powered experiences. These agents can be both user-facing products and part of agent-to-agent interactions on TON, including payments, coordination, and trust.
This is a much bigger shift than just one hackathon.
A new stack is emerging
• Telegram is the interaction and distribution layer
• AI is the execution engine.
• TON is the payments, agent-to-agent, and trust layer.
BotFather MAU grew from 3.5M to 7.4M after AI agents started taking off on Telegram. Developers are already moving. Now it’s time to join the best builders on TON.

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.

💎 TON Pay | The Why
Payments should be solved once, not by every builder individually.
Before TON Pay, every app on Telegram needed to build its own payment infrastructure from scratch: wallets, checkout, settlement, all of it.
TON Pay puts an end to that ❣
One SDK. A ready-to-go solution for Mini Apps, bots, and backend services. One-time payments, recurring, and subscriptions. Non-custodial, so funds stay under user control.
No more reinventing the wheel. Just build.💪👨💻✨

⚡ Sub-Second Finality Is Coming to TON
TON Core is upgrading the blockchain to significantly increase block production speed, targeting sub-second user-perceived transaction finality, enabling end-to-end interactions in under 1 second.
Improving the blockchain is only part of the upgrade. Ecosystem apps need to adapt to deliver this experience to users.
Developers can start testing now and prepare for the upgrade.
What projects should do
🔹 Wallets & apps: switch to real-time Streaming API
🔹 Nodes & liteservers: update to versions supporting sub-second transaction finality
🔹 Indexers: ensure infrastructure handles higher block production without lag
📘 Full upgrade guide: How to adopt sub-second finality

WalletConnect's global network, which connects 500M+ users across 700+ wallets and facilitated more than $400B in transaction volume in 2025, now has access to TON's expanding stablecoin economy and DeFi ecosystem.
To enable this, TON Connect protocol has been extended to support WalletConnect as a transport layer, allowing TON dApps to interact with multichain wallets without building wallet connection support from scratch.
• Wallets with WalletConnect can now support TON with minimal integration effort.
• Institutions gain access to TON's DeFi and liquidity layer.
• Apps can attract non-TON native audiences.
With institutional capital flowing in, TON's DeFi platforms like STON.fi, DeDust, Tonstakers, Affluent, Storm, and TONCO stand to benefit from deeper liquidity, which in turn means better opportunities for everyday crypto users.
