Toncoin’s $100K Golden Ticket: Buy Your Way to a 10-Year UAE Visa With Crypto

Move over real estate—Toncoin just turned crypto into the UAE's hottest visa hack.

The blockchain project dangles a decade-long golden visa for anyone staking $100K in TON. No property headaches, no legacy bank delays—just pure digital nomad fuel.

Dubai's latest crypto-courting move? A no-brainer. The Emirates have been rolling out the red carpet for blockchain projects while traditional finance still argues about 'volatility.' Meanwhile, smart money's already parking assets where tax authorities can't touch them.

One catch: better hope Toncoin doesn't pull a Luna before your residency paperwork clears.

• Stake $100K in TON for 10-Year UAE Visa With 3–4% Annual Yield
• Visa Covers Immediate Family at No Extra Investment Requirement
• Toncoin Rallies 10% After TON Launches Residency Program

The Open Network (TON) has launched a crypto-powered path to a 10-year UAE Golden Visa through Toncoin staking. The new project will reduce the average entry price by more than 80%, attracting international investors and crypto whales. The applicants must deposit $100,000 worth of TON and pay a $35,000 processing fee.

The TON program is faster than traditional paths, and the approvals are said to take less than seven weeks. Its partners in the UAE handle documentation and residency verification and liaise with the authorities. The whole process is based on smart contracts, which can be verified on the TON blockchain.

The applicants retain full control of the staked Toncoin, which can be accessed via the verified decentralized smart contract. The participants also get an estimated annual yield of 3-4% during the three-year staking period. This framework attracts crypto-native investors that like liquid and transparent asset management.

TON Program Covers Immediate Family At Lower Cost

The program includes spouses, children, and parents under the same visa application at no added cost besides standard government fees. This family-inclusive benefit makes the TON program competitive over common residency-by-investment schemes. Other similar programs require separate investments or added dependent fees.

TON’s offer minimizes the financial barrier than with the traditional real estate or fixed-deposit routes, which require at least $540,000. This reduction may appeal to high-net-worth individuals who are seeking other avenues to enter the UAE.

TON pulling off a 10-year UAE Golden Visa partnership with the UAE government is really quite an amazing partnership story. The entry is 5x lower than an equivalent real estate / FD investment and will certainly get the attention of whales to take a look at TON and consider this… pic.twitter.com/U89Ta8oGhg

Price Action

After the announcement, the Toncoin price increased more than 10% to about $2.98 on top exchanges. The token had lost over 60% year-on-year but saw a high short-term momentum following the visa news. The investors reacted well to the news, which indicates confidence in the TON’s increased utility.

Although the program has attracted attention, it is not formally connected with the UAE government, which has raised concerns among crypto observers. Critics argue that a third-party service is using TON as a proxy for clients to gain residency. They claimed that the provider might theoretically use any token in a similar model.

UAE’s Global Crypto and Blockchain Hub Ambitions

Nevertheless, the launch is in line with the UAE’s wider goal to position itself as a global crypto and blockchain hub. The regulators in Dubai recently authorized the use of the Ripple RLUSD stablecoin and amended the laws to allow real-world asset tokenization. These trends indicate support for innovation in financial services.

The Dubai Multi Commodities Centre is a major hub of blockchain startups with more than 600 crypto companies. There is also increased interest in other regions such as DIFC and One Central. The region is set to draw investors with improved and clear regulations.
