​TON reducing network fees TL;DR: TON network fees have been reduced by 3x across the board in response to Toncoin’s recent growth. We are excited to announce a series of updates aimed at reducing network fees, enhancing the scalability and accessibility of TON Blockchain. These updates are a testament to TON’s continuous efforts to innovate, encourage greater activity within the TON Ecosystem, and put crypto to every pocket. Key updates: USDt Jetton discount Starting April 16th, there is a special discount for Jetton-with-governance transactions like USDt. Fees were reduced to 0.02 TON from 0.032 TON for the first transaction, and subsequent transactions are now only 0.0145 TON. Global fee reduction Validators have approved the TON Core Dev team's proposal for a further 3x reduction in transaction fees. The cost for the first Jetton-with-governance transaction is now ∼$0.06, with subsequent transactions at ∼$0.04, assuming 1 Toncoin = $7. Please note that these costs will fluctuate with Toncoin’s value. Introduction of precompiled smart contracts In the next node update, the TON Core Dev team will introduce the ability for smart contracts to be precompiled. This means that the most popular smart contracts, written in C++, will be embedded directly in the node, bypassing the need for TVM execution. This adjustment reduces resource consumption and, consequently, the fees associated with these contracts. These updates are aimed at making TON, the world's most scalable blockchain, stand out as the most affordable option for projects seeking mass adoption. Stay tuned for more important updates to come!

​Telegram to exclusively use TON for ad payments As part of the #TONxTelegram initiative, Telegram has announced that starting in March, Telegram broadcast channels in around 100 countries will be receiving payouts in Toncoin (TON). This development further integrates TON Blockchain into Telegram, marking another significant step towards putting crypto in every pocket. Read more here. Why this matters This move is not just transforming how digital advertising and monetization work on a global scale. It’s about bringing blockchain technology to a mainstream platform with over 800 million monthly active users. Channel owners and creators can now monetize their content through a global, decentralized currency that supports peer-to-peer transactions via @Wallet right within Telegram. This initiative signifies not only a substantial revenue stream for Telegram and Telegram creators but also an entirely new utility for cryptocurrency and Toncoin. As with everything they do, Telegram wanted to do advertising differently, characterized by transparency and respecting user privacy. With payouts in Toncoin, Telegram Channel owners will learn about TON’s Web3 ecosystem and can use the payouts for promotion and upgrading their channels. Aside from Telegram Ads, an ecosystem of Web3 apps is already available to Telegram Channel creators: ▪️ @Wallet: Gives creators a way to hold, buy, sell, send and receive crypto peer-to-peer inside Telegram. With Wallet Pay, channel owners can build payment in crypto into their own Telegram Mini-apps. ▪️ @community_bot: Gives creators an in-telegram quest platform, where subscribers can do tasks and earn rewards. ▪️ @tribute: Gives creators another monetization method, with donations from subscribers or subscription-gated paid channels. We're just scratching the surface of what's possible with TON Blockchain. This integration is a testament to our belief in a decentralized future where digital assets play a pivotal role in content creation and advertising. For more details, check out this blog post.
