KTON: The new wave of the ton ecosystem, unlocking $6.12 billion in liquid staking potential

With Telegram announcing full support for the TON blockchain, the ecosystem is facing unprecedented development opportunities. At this critical moment, the KTON project incubated by Asia’s top incubator TONX is about to be officially launched in February 2025. This is not only a new staking protocol, but also a major change in the TON ecosystem, aiming to bring more flexible and efficient liquidity staking solutions to all participants.

TONX: The cornerstone builder of the TON ecosystem

The birth of KTON is inseparable from the powerful TONX team. As the core builder of the TON ecosystem, TONX has established a series of eye-catching products to ensure the solid foundation and continuous innovation of the entire ecosystem.

TonStake: An old and excellent staking platform

TonStake, launched by TONX earlier, is one of the most historic staking platforms in the TON ecosystem, providing stable staking income to a large number of users. Today, with the further development of TON, the demand for liquidity staking is getting higher and higher, and KTON was born in this context.

TONX API: The strongest support for developers

The TONX API built by TONX has now become the preferred development platform for many developers and has gained the trust of more than 20 top projects such as Blum, Catizen, and Google Cloud. This not only makes the technical foundation of the TON ecosystem more solid, but also makes the development of more DeFi and DApps in the future easier.

Tonkey: A multi-signature solution to manage $400 million in assets

The security of the TON ecosystem is of vital importance, and Tonkey is the multi-signature wallet solution launched by TONX to meet high asset management needs. It currently manages over $400 million in assets and has been officially adopted by the TON Foundation.

Redefining TON’s liquidity pledge standards

As a new generation of TON staking protocol, KTON raises the standard of liquidity staking to a new level. It not only brings a more convenient staking experience to ordinary users, but also provides institutional investors with a safer and more flexible solution.

KTON Main Features

  • Institutional-grade security: Designed for family offices, trust funds, and exchanges to ensure the stability of large pledges.
  • Zero lock-up period: Unlike traditional staking, KTON allows users to enter and exit at any time, providing ultimate flexibility.
  • Low threshold to participate: Only 1 TON is required to join the staking, which is suitable for all users.
  • Telegram Mini App support: Built into Telegram, allowing 950 million users to participate with one click.

Huge market potential: How much value can KTON release?

Future growth potential of TON staking

Currently, TON’s pledge rate is only 13.7%, compared to Solana’s 69%, there is still more than 5 times room for growth. This means that as the TON ecosystem expands, the staking market still has huge growth potential.

If TON’s liquidity pledge ratio can reach 36% of Ethereum’s, the market size will increase 18 times, releasing $6.12 billion in value! This also makes KTON an important player that cannot be ignored in the TON staking market.

DeFi giants are entering the market

In addition to the growth within the TON ecosystem, interest in TON from external DeFi projects is also rising. With the entry of DeFi giants such as Ethena and Curve Finance, TON’s financial infrastructure will become more complete, and KTON, as the core bridge connecting the DeFi world and the TON staking market, will play a key role in it.

Ecological observation: Diversified competition promotes user benefits

The birth of KTON is of great significance to the TON ecosystem. It is not only a technological innovation in the pledge market, but also brings an upgrade in user experience.

This reminds people of the competition among food delivery platforms. When Uber Eats and Foodpanda were competing fiercely in the early stages of the market, in order to seize market share, the two platforms continuously launched various discounts, member-exclusive benefits, improved delivery efficiency and other strategies. In the end, the real beneficiaries were the users.

User dividends brought by competition

  • Higher staking yield
  • A more transparent and fair mechanism
  • Stronger security
  • Smoother user experience

Project parties must continuously optimize in terms of yield, security, user experience, etc. in order to stand out in the market. Such a competitive landscape is an important sign that the ecosystem is maturing.

The KTON project is about to be launched, and the future of the TON ecosystem is worth looking forward to

KTON is not only a new project, but also an important breakthrough in the field of TON ecosystem liquidity staking. Its birth means that the TON ecosystem has entered a new stage of competition, and the ultimate beneficiaries of this competition will be all participants.

With the support of resources from Telegram, TONX, DeFi giants and other parties, KTON’s growth potential cannot be underestimated. This not only represents a significant improvement in the maturity of the TON ecosystem, but also indicates that blockchain financial products will be more inclusive and more liquid.

For all participants who care about the development of the TON ecosystem, this is an important moment worthy of attention - KTON is redefining the future of TON staking!
