Introducing TON Sites and TON Proxy.
We’re excited to announce the launch of crucial components for the Web3 internet — TON Sites and TON Proxy 1.0.
These are unique technologies that allow sites to be fully decentralized, secure, private, and available on the TON network.
Users who don’t even have special technical knowledge can view TON Sites directly in the browser on their devices the same way they would for websites.
TON Sites uses decentralized TON DNS for domain names.
The release of TON Sites and TON Proxy is a watershed moment in the TON Foundation’s quest to create the Web3 internet. Web3 services — in the original understanding — are secured by cryptography and never seek the help of centralized services.
We’re confident that TON Sites and TON Proxy will be the beginning of the real Web3 and replace the current semi-decentralized solutions.
Within the next few days, we’re going to discuss key features of these new components, but in the meantime, we suggest reading the TON Foundation’s latest article covering TON Sites and TON Proxy:

TON Sites, TON WWW, and TON Proxy
The TON project is more than just a blockchain — it also has a unique network technology. First of all, network protocols were created specifically for the TON blockchain so that nodes could communicate with one another and exchange data. Currently, the network…

TON Sites and TON Proxy: The gist.
Yesterday marked the release of the first versions of the long-awaited TON Sites and TON Proxy components, with the TON Foundation announcing plans for future updates.
Today, however, we want to highlight some key moments for the TON Foundation’s big article on the matter.
The first version
▪️ Yesterday, the worldwide TON community was finally graced with decentralized sites, which are impossible to block or censor (either their IP addresses or domains) because they use their own addresses and protocols on the TON network and domains from TON DNS.
▪️ All data traffic between users and TON Sites is encrypted and verified for authenticity.
▪️ Users can assign a domain name to a TON-based wallet and receive Toncoin via that domain or a subdomain.
▪️ With TON Sites, there’s no longer the need to create log-in passwords — logging in will occur via a TON wallet with just one click.
▪️ TON Sites can be viewed through regular web browsers. It only takes a few easy steps explained in this guide. You can test it out right now and open the first TON site: http://foundation.ton.
▪️ There’s also an easier way to access TON Sites: Download a browser extension wallet that supports TON Proxy — e.g., MyTonWallet — and turn on the “TON Proxy” function in the settings.
The second version
In the second version of TON Sites and TON Proxy, an anonymous network will be released, which will help mask the IP addresses of users and sites. This will provide a layer of security to sites from DoS attacks and users from hacks and advertising tracking.
The service will be free for all users.
The third version
The third version of TON Sites and TON Proxy will usher in a new era of decentralized finance. Using TON Proxy, microtransactions will be deducted from users’ accounts as a financial incentive for network nodes to continue to provide security services.
This strategy aims to increase the number of nodes on the network, subsequently helping it to scale and become more stable.
All technical jargon related to TON Sites and TON Proxy aside, we want to emphasize that interacting with decentralized sites is just as easy as surfing the regular internet. (In fact, it’ll be even easier thanks to the sign-in functions through TON wallets and the built-in Toncoin payment method.)
We’re confident that shortly, a whole host of TON sites will appear, and TON blockchain users will be able to experience how convenient and simple to use they are.

Introducing the first search engine on TON
It has been several days, and the first projects developed on the recently-launched TON Sites have started appearing. The first search engine available at searching.ton popped up today and drew the attention of TON enthusiasts. The site, similar in appearance to well-known Google or DuckDuckGo, parsers all the web3 sites on The Open Network. Currently, it is toncenter.ton, just-for-test.ton, and foundation.ton. The developers kindly ask the first testers to send feedback to this user. You can follow upcoming updates and find more details on their channel.
We remind you that it is necessary to configure a proxy server to in1.ton.org:8080 before you visit .ton sites. TON Foundation posted detailed information on how to set up a proxy server on GitHub. Please, visit this page if you experience some problems.
Would you like to see The Daily TON on web3? Please share your opinions via our bot! And also, do not hesitate to ask us any questions regarding configuring proxy or anything else — we are always open to help you!

TON browser extensions
The TON ecosystem continues to expand, with a handful of wallets already releasing their browser extensions.
These extensions play a vital role in the ecosystem, allowing users to interact with major TON components and services — e.g., DEXs and NFT marketplaces — manage their cryptocurrencies based on TON, and even view decentralized sites in their browsers.
These browser extensions make working with the blockchain simple and convenient, allow users to sign in to services with a single click, and facilitate payments in a split second.
Today, we want to tell you about three of the most well-known TON extensions.
MyTonWallet
A noncustodial crypto wallet with open-source code, it allows its users to view TON sites directly within your browser without altering any of your settings.
The team behind MyTonWallet was the first to implement support for the TON Proxy component. When you turn on the “TON Proxy” function in your extension settings, you’ll have immediate access to any Web3 site on TON.
The wallet has a sleek and modern user interface and supports all TON standards: tokens (Jettons), NFT, TON DNS, TON Proxy, and TON Magic.
MyTonWallet extension on Google Chrome
Official website: https://mytonwallet.io/
Uniton
Uniton is a noncustodial cryptocurrency Web3 wallet from the Tegro team.
Uniton supports custom tokens (Jettons) on TON, allows crypto transfers via TON DNS names, and has multi-accounts, the ability to switch among multiple wallets in a streamlined interface (This function is currently only available in the web version).
The developers plan on adding a function that will display NFTs.

The mobile and web versions of the wallet are available on the official website: uniton.app

TON Wallet
TON Wallet is the go-to wallet developed by the TON Foundation.
This wallet’s extension is user-friendly, lets users sign in to any TON site or service, and gives users full control over their Toncoin — storing, receiving, and sending.

A new TON NFT standard has been finalized.
We’re happy to announce that after a lot of hard work and endless testing, the TON Foundation has approved the standard for a Soulbound TON NFT.
A Soulbound token is a particular kind of token. It cannot be transferred or sold because it is meant to remain in its owner’s wallet forever.
This token standard will help to create new use cases for NFT technology.
For instance, a Soulbound token can be used as a way to keep track of a wallet’s accomplishments, hold essential documents (driver’s license, diplomas, etc.), and create a digital passport that will allow users to pass KYC verifications more quickly, sell subscriptions, and issue custom discount coupons.
Additional features include returning and burning tokens.
We can’t wait to see how the Soulbound NFT will be used out of the gate and the genesis of new use cases.
The team behind the Getgems NFT marketplace initiated the standard, issuing a grant in a partnership with TON Punks.
Getgems has already integrated the Soulbound token on its platform.

The first-ever IDO in the TON ecosystem
On Oct. 10, the TON network reached an important milestone: its first-ever IDO. The Fanzee project raised $100,000 from investors in as little as four hours.
The Tonstarter launchpad, where the IDO was held, received over 7,800 Waitlist applications; however, only 438 people were lucky enough to receive an allocation.
We’re humbled to see how thousands of people continue to show interest in independent products based on TON, believe in their future success, and are ready to invest money in early-stage startups.
Without a doubt, fundraising on TON will play a vital role in the network’s development, paving the way for more projects with solid teams joining the ecosystem.

Pokras Lampas (482,000 followers on Instagram) is a name even people outside the art world have heard. The artist is famous for large-scale projects and collaborations with household names, such as Binance, Lamborghini, Fendi, Dries Van Noten, Nike, Adidas, Nasdaq, Comme Des Garçons, Apple, and more.
His original works are in the hands of private collectors all around the world (the royal family of the United Arab Emirates collects his work), and his NFTs have set records on the Russian market.
Pokras Lampas will be personally presenting his art at TON NFT Exhibition.
The TON community is already well aware of who Ellen Sheidlin (4.3 million followers on Instagram) is. The artist released her “Annihilation” collection on TON, but in Dubai, she’ll show the world a single installation called “Memory of Soul.”
Sheidlin will also be at the exhibition.
Brickspacer (215,000 followers on Instagram) is a famous motion artist who, in 2021, made the list of “30 most promising Russians under 30” for Forbes’ “Art” category.
The artist has worked with artists Slava Marlow, Little Big, and Face, and he’s the founder of the large crypto art community NFTBastards and the 111hata creative collective.
Brickspacer will unveil his “OCTOPUS BOYZ: GENESIS” piece, which will be the first of a new NFT collection.
We’re excited to see more big names from the world of art join the TON ecosystem.
The idea that The Open Network has the potential to become the central hub for talented people who create digital art is inspiring.

Results from Hack-a-TONx Prague
From Sept. 30 to Oct. 2, the team at Tonana DeFi Hub hosted the offline hackathon Hack-aTONx Prague with the TON Foundation, offering $37,000 in prizes.
We were blown away by the results and want to share them with the community so that Web3 enthusiasts from all corners of the world will have a benchmark to compare when hosting events in the future.
The competition had 24 teams that worked with code for 72 hours and presented 12 projects. Over 100 people visited the venue, making the event’s first iteration a success.
The jury, event mentors, and lecturers comprised representatives from the TON ecosystem, including specialists from the TON Foundation, TON Society, Tonkeeper, Tonstarter, StickerFace, Orbs, and @wallet.
The event’s participants sat in on some lectures covering TON, Web3 gaming, and Telegram web bots and mingled at evening get-togethers.
The TON Foundation took care of the hackathon’s expenses, contributed to the expertise, provided recommendations, and would like to thank the Tonana team for putting on an elite-level event.
The results from the hackathon are published here:

We hope these events will only grow in size and popularity to have them on a regular basis.

Creating personalized cryptocurrencies on the TON network
The TON Whales team has launched a token generator that allows users to create TON-based altcoins — aka Jettons — without requiring the assistance of programmers.
To launch your own tokens, you must:
1. Go to Create Your Own Crypto.
2. Sign in with the Tonhub crypto wallet.
3. Come up with a name for your token, a ticker symbol, decide on its total supply, and click “Create Jetton.”
Once you’ve completed the above steps, the tokens will appear in your crypto wallet.
These newly created tokens adhere to TON’s DeFi standard, meaning they can be used the same way as other tokens — e.g., trade on a DEX or send to other users.
Users can store Jettons in any TON-based crypto wallet that supports customed-made tokens — e.g., Tonhub, Tonkeeper, or Uniton.
Although this is a boon for the TON ecosystem, the token generator is only in its first version, which will eventually develop and update to offer more functionalities.
Currently, the service is only available to members of the Whales Club.
You can also create Jettons with the Jetton Deployer service.
