We’re excited to announce that The Open Network (TON) is now integrated with Dune! This integration allows developers, analysts, and enthusiasts to access and explore TON’s on-chain data, offering new opportunities to understand its ecosystem and activity.

“Ton’s seamless integration with Telegram and its focus on bringing millions of users onchain is remarkable. With Dune, users can track and explore this rapidly expanding ecosystem.” — Fredrik Haga, Co-Founder & CEO of Dune

What is TON?

TON, originally developed by the Telegram team, is a Layer-1 blockchain designed for high performance and ease of use. Now managed by the TON Foundation, it’s known for its scalability, achieved through a sharding mechanism that divides the network into smaller segments to process transactions efficiently. Its Proof-of-Stake consensus ensures security and supports high transaction volumes.

A key feature of TON is its integration with Telegram, where users can access wallets and blockchain services directly from the app. This seamless connection brings blockchain technology closer to everyday use for Telegram’s vast user base.

TON’s Ecosystem 

TON’s ecosystem includes a range of applications, from decentralized storage and naming services to financial tools and games. TON Storage provides a decentralized alternative to cloud storage, ensuring data is secure and accessible without relying on centralized systems. 

TON also supports stablecoins like USDT, making it easier for users to transact and store value. Gaming projects, like the RPG Kat Knight, showcase the platform’s ability to support entertainment and creative applications.

STON.fi DEX, the #1 DEX on the TON blockchain, now also has its own dashboard on Dune. STON.fi is characterized by its dominance in the number of available tokens, total value locked (TVL), and trading volume. It is designed for seamless integration with TON wallets, enabling trading of any TON-based token.

“With our data now live on Dune, it’s easier than ever to see how STON.fi is powering growth in the TON ecosystem. By making our metrics more transparent and easier to explore, we’re helping everyone—from curious newcomers to seasoned pros—feel confident about the future of cross-chain DeFi.” — Martin Masser, STON.fi CBDO

What You Can Do with TON on Dune

With TON’s data now available on Dune, you can explore transaction patterns, wallet activity, and token flows to gain insights into how the network is being used. Developers and analysts can track the growth of TON’s ecosystem, including dapps and user adoption trends.

This integration also makes it possible to monitor cross-chain activity and asset movements, providing a clearer picture of how TON interacts with other networks. 

Whether you’re looking to analyze DeFi, NFTs, or overall ecosystem activity, Dune’s tools make it easy to build custom dashboards and share insights.

“This integration with Dune underscores TON’s commitment to accessibility and innovation. By bringing powerful analytics tools to our ecosystem, we’re empowering users and developers to explore and drive the growth of a more connected, onchain future," said Max Pertsovskiy, Chief Operating Officer, TON Foundation.
