Where to get Toncoin
The history of Toncoin
The Telegram Open Network (TON) testnet2 is launched, with 5 billion coins minted. A small fraction, equivalent to 1.45% of the supply, is allocated to developers and testers.
After the SEC prohibited Telegram from issuing Grams to investors, Telegram ceased its work on the TON Ecosystem. testnet2 tokens are placed into 20 Proof-of-Work Giver smart contracts.
Testnet2 was promoted to mainnet through a majority vote of network participants. Coins are still being distributed through Proof-of-Work Giver contracts.
Following the initial distribution of coins, TON enters into a new phase, expanding the number of validators and coins involved in validation. This advancement enhances the stability and security of the network.
