Not only is the network focused on delivering high scalability, but it can also be easily sharded, thanks to its unique infrastructure. According to dev docs, the platform’s so-called masterchains are designed to store blockchain data whereas work- and shardchains are in charge of providing the network’s maintenance. Therefore, each chain is responsible for its own task and the blockchain is able to reach top-notch throughput.
What’s more, the platform’s native token Toncoin is used to handle all fees and costs associated with the blockchain.
In late 2021 TON launched bridges to Ethereum and Binance Smart Chain. As of 2022, TON has been listed on the top crypto exchanges, the project has come out with TON Nominators, DeFi, API, DNS, Payments, etc. Thus, the network’s users can be expecting more exciting projects in the future, including a crosschain with Bitcoin and Ethereum Virtual Machine.
