Topic: Could TON be the new Solana? - page 3. (Read 759 times)
If TON focuses more on advertising and marketing, considering that games/defi and Ton memes are expanding, this can be the best factor for TON's development. Also, TON can become the new Solana due to fast transactions and cheap fees.
When talking about overtaking Solana, in my opinion, it is possible for TON to do, but they still need a long time and effort where they need to have an interesting ecosystem on the blockchain. where Solana has launched many very interesting projects so far so that it has a strong and solid community.
Likewise, the potential of TON is very good with its motto with Telegram it will be much easier to adopt more users who are unfamiliar with Blockchain, with this they can get more users because they have a lot of telegram communities, but indeed they still need to understand the world of Blockchain which connects to TON, maybe one day if this telegram becomes its main sword and is not banned in many countries it will get a much bigger increase than Solana.

The association of Telegram with TON do insure the future for this coin. The telegram platform is using it as the default advertising currency and in future the default currency of telegram messenger. The Durov brothers from telegram are well respected people in the field of mathematics and programming. They were behind the huge social network VK, which they have now left and telegram has became one of the most popular messaging app around the world. Though it don't insure that it would give Solana a run for money. If it were to challenge solana head on, we would have already seen some activities but I believe ton wants to take a different approach than taking head on competition with Solana. They would be another relatively successful coin alongside with others like Solana.
Ton is baked by Animoca Brands. they want to go IPO in 2025. That should give TON a huge boost..
"And in terms of distribution narratives, things like TON, for instance. Telegram helps solve a really big problem when it comes to Web3 user adoption and onboarding. GAMI now has 3 million daily active users because of Telegram and the TON blockchain. So to me, those are some of the things that I think become really important drivers in all of this.
I believe that over the next 12 to 18 months, we’re going to see over 100 million users join Web3 because of gaming that’s happening to distribution outlets like Telegram. So that’s one of the big trends to look at. So it’s quite consumer-focused and of course that means things like gaming, entertainment and also education ultimately will become very big narratives in Web3 over the next 12 to 18 months."

Ton do have a potential and so do many of the new utility tokens that aims to compete with Solana. To be the next hit, they should get the right things done at right time. Cardano always had been a popular utility coin but it never actually threatened Ethereum, BNB or Solana. There are people who still believe in it but when it can't take the market at its time, it would always fall behind. Ethereum was the pioneer of Side chain and their headstart made them the most popular one till date. There were many that tried to reciprocate Ethereum but failed. Solana came as the hit of next generation, it has surpassed coins that are older and younger than itself. In future a new coin might challenge both Ethereum and Solana and that new coin is more likely non existent today.
In my opinion, TON has a lot of potential indeed. The fact is a network which is reliable enough to harbor USDT and also is closely linked to Telegram makes it perfect for people who wants to send and receive assets quickly from their phones. Nowadays, Telegram is the biggest app which continuously presents the Bitcoin and cryptocurrency ecosystem to millions only people who would had never have the chance to hold Stablecoins in the first place.
Though, the new public also needs to have some basic education and be careful on what to expect from this new projects and how to spot scams... it is just a matter of time.before some bad people try to capitalize on the popularity of this new coin in order to steal as much money as possible from new investors.
I am not sure whether TON is the new Solana, if it is trying to be the next one,.then it is certainly going in the right direction.

TON is the first token without clear tokenomics, so it's scaring many users, but everything depends on hype!

For me TON and Solana are both major players in the blockchain world, but they each have their own strengths and challenges. TON was created by Telegram and aims for high transaction speeds and low costs, using multiple blockchains to handle large volumes of transactions. Solana, on the other hand, is known for its unique Proof of History system, allowing it to process over 65,000 transactions per second with low fees.
solana has a well-established ecosystem with many decentralized applications, DeFi projects, and NFTs, making it popular among developers and users. TON, despite its strong technology, faced delays and legal issues, which slowed its initial growth. However, with Telegram's large user base, TON still has potential if it can regain momentum.
I think both networks aim to provide fast and cheap transactions, but Solana currently has the edge due to its early adoption and active community. Whether TON can become as successful as Solana will depend on its ability to overcome past challenges and attract users and developers.

This might sound overzealous, but there's a serious argument to be made about $TON being the next Solana, in my opinion.
The Open Network has been gaining significant traction, with the $TON price reaching a new all-time high recently. According to Delphi Digital, the ecosystem's growth is bolstered by Telegram's massive user base of 900 million, pushing the daily active addresses on TON beyond those of Ethereum.
The Total Value Locked (TVL) in the TON ecosystem has increased more than fivefold over the past two months, reaching $600 million due to the influx of new projects and assets such as STON.fi, DeDust.io, and TON-USDT. According to Tether's official transparency page, the authorized issuance of USDT on the TON blockchain has grown to approximately $580 million, making it the sixth-largest blockchain for USDT issuance, after TRON, Ethereum, Solana, Avalanche, and Omni.
The TON ecosystem has also seen significant investments recently, including a $20 million investment from a top exchange.https://www.google.com/amp/s/alexablockchain.com/bitget-20m-ton-ecosystem-fund/%3famp=1
Several tap-to-earn games, starting from NOT, have also contributed to the bullish sentiment around the TON ecosystem. Could this surpass Solana in the long run? I think so.

Probably. The crypto market often behaves in many strange and bizarre ways, so anything's possible. It will depend if mainstream investors (particularly VCs) are interested in the coin. If they are, TON would be on a road to non-stop success. It could even have its own spot ETF like Ethereum, Solana, and Bitcoin. Telegram is one of the most popular messaging platforms in the world, so it can boost the adoption of its own cryptocurrency with ease.
Would you imagine Whatsapp or Signal having their own Blockchain and cryptocurrency as well? That would ramp up the competition for Telegram. We're still in a bear market, anyways. It wouldn't hurt buying some TON just in case. Just invest your money wisely, and there should be nothing to worry about.
I'm surprised why TON is not as huge as it could be. They have got all the right things. I've used the network and it's fast. The fees could be a concern if the price rises rapidly but I believe they would work on it. The TPS of Ton is on paper better than of Solana so it would be capable of hosting much larger and higher number of projects and have a lot of transactions without any issue. The only thing TON network lags is the number of projects. They do have some defi and games but they are not very impressive. They should introduce some meme tokens to get the network moving.
Solana is superior to Ton at the present time: fast, cheap fee but Ton will definitely become the new Solana. In addition to upgrading the chain, supporting memes is the fastest way. Ton memes are exploding, this is a sign.
Ton is not a new Solana in my opinion) 
But it certainly has potential for growth! Now more and more people are using telegram.
I think Tone will increase in price x20 x 30 in the next 3 years
Have a nice day

True. They just need more improvements imo. Transferring USDT via TON chain is also absolutely free, They're having recognition and investment from top platforms like the one I mentioned & major tap to earn games are integrating TON. They've got a good starting point.
We can agree that the hype around the ton network is increasing and with the rising of the tap2earn projects the blockchain is gain momentum really fast.
It could ton could be another good investment option base the traction it is gaining right now and where it could be in few years to come.
It's growth could be similar to solana as an underdog that becomes successful unexpectedly.
The only thing left for the chain now is to have incredible dapps building on the chain to make more successful.

Its too early to say that but since LUNA crash to SOL meme season gives me a vibe that anything is possible in crypto. Not only TON but if a low cap layer 1 becomes number 10 in CMC we will not be surprised. It's all about how the whales wants to make money. If they see an opportunity to manipulate the market and provoke retail into their trap then they will take it. What good about TON is the team is well funded. But in terms of technology there are better layer 1 than TON.
Hi, I think technically it's possible.
TON has a great community, team and support. There are also Meme coins entering its eco-system.

I invested a lot in TON, so i hope that Durov and team know what they are doing. It have promissing features and marketing options
Ton network is gaining more population this days because the new invention of airdrops.
How is anything like asking for followers a "new invention" with airdrops? Lmao.And in some exchanges Ton network is free to make transaction but Solana charge big amount with congested network.
Spoken like someone who never used the actual network. Transacting on Solana was never expensive. Exchange withdrawal fees are something else because they can set the fees to whatever fee they want — same with bitcoin, ethereum, or any other network.
Solana is not worth investing in and Ton is making wave in telegram. And almost all the airdrops I have seen in telegram asking their users or followers to use Ton to connect the airdrop. And I don't think Solana is the same with Ton. Ton network is gaining more population this days because the new invention of airdrops. And in some exchanges Ton network is free to make transaction but Solana charge big amount with congested network.
My memories with SOL still remain, so similarly at different market stages there will be names that stand out and receive great attention from the cryptocurrency community. As for now, TON's potential is very good, but it is too early to assume competition between chains as I also have faith that SOL will continue to create FOMO in the next period. But anyway, it's all just speculation and we all feel that if the market is built with trust, nothing is impossible. IMO, it is possible that the altcoin wave will have a lot of confusion in the list of top coins and as many speculate, SOL and TON both deserve that position.
