Toncoin (TON) Staking Goes Mainstream with Telegram’s Billion-User Integration
P2P.org and TON Whales have launched a simplified staking service for The Open Network (TON), now directly accessible to Telegram's billion users. The service requires only 10 TON (approximately $30) to participate, offering a 4.7% APY through automated validator distribution.
TON's DEEP integration with Telegram—already enabling token earnings via games and apps—now includes institutional-grade staking. The network boasts 156 million active wallets with over $2 billion staked, highlighting strong ecosystem growth.
The non-custodial solution removes the need for manual validator management, reducing barriers for exchanges and custodians. This strategic MOVE positions TON to attract institutional capital seeking yield within messaging-app ecosystems.
