TENT's soft launch drew 30,000 monthly active users in two weeks, showing how entertainment fits inside Telegram's social ecosystem. Watching, chatting, and sharing happen in one place.

💡 How it works:

TENT's watch-to-earn system rewards users for engagement, joining watch-alongs, inviting friends, or participating in discussions. Points can be redeemed for subscription discounts, credits, and access to special events.

Built on TON's payment network, rewards transfer instantly with low fees and no crypto expertise required.

🔥 The old world burns. MemeRepublic rises.

Let's be real: Memelandia didn’t deliver.

The system wasn’t fair, the data wasn’t clear, and the community wasn’t in control. The memes brought the energy, but the structure let them down.

So we burned it all down.

Welcome to MemeRepublic!

A new land for creators and communities. Inside Telegram, powered by TON. A place where performance matters, not politics. A Republic made by the memes, for the memes. 

Here's how your Republic works:

💰 $1M Fund Ready to Deploy: $500K for direct token purchases • $500K for liquidity 

Real capital. Real impact.

📊 Performance-Based Selection

• Dashboard tracks on-chain metrics weekly
• Top performer receives $100K ($50K buys + $50K liquidity)

🎯 Built to be Fair 

• Transparent on-chain tracking
• Random purchase timing (no front-running)
• Anti-gaming measures baked in

🔗 Entire TON Ecosystem United Every major DEX, launchpad, and platform backing this. The infrastructure is ready.

The gates open November 7 🚀

🚀 New pools on DeDust

DeDust is releasing a new type of liquidity pool that separates trading fees from the LP position.

Current pools have two main issues:
▪️ Hard to track earnings
▪️ Token creators can’t collect fees from locked liquidity

CPMM v2 pools solve both:
▪️ Fees are collected and claimed separately
▪️ LP fees remain claimable even when liquidity is locked (locking must be done on DeDust)

Also, with these new pools, you can:
▪️ Choose which token fees are collected in
▪️ Choose the fee level at deployment
▪️ Create more than one pool for a pair

🌐 Start using the new pools on DeDust today.
