Validators voted to reduce fees
Network fees decreased by 2.5 times. We thank the validators for your choice.
This is the first use of the TON fees reduction mechanism on the mainnet.
Validators also voted for the first precompiled smart contract, which will further reduce fees for USDt in particular.
Developers please pay attention to the guidelines.
Voting to reduce network fees
TON has always been known for its low network fees.
Fees in TON are fixed (in Toncoin) and do not depend on the load in the network in any way. However, given the rise of Toncoin price, they are no longer so low in terms of dollars.
Fortunately, TON provides a mechanism for reducing the cost of fees by network-wide voting.
We encourage validators to vote for this fee reduction.

Making TON the Most Affordable, scalable Layer 1 Network.
The TON Core team wants to share with the validator community new plans to improve our ecosystem’s affordability and growth. The team is looking to introduce an initiative to cut transaction fees, making TON transactions more affordable to encourage activity and growth within the ecosystem. Fees in the TON blockchain are fixed and do not depend on network load. However, as you know, the Toncoin exchange rate has gone up, so fees in dollars have gone up accordingly. 1.

Repost from Du Rove's Channel
😝 Next month, channel owners on Telegram can start receiving financial rewards from their work.
Broadcast channels on Telegram generate 1 trillion views monthly. Currently, only 10% of these views are monetized with Telegram Ads — a promotion tool designed with privacy in mind.
In March, the Telegram Ad Platform will officially open to all advertisers in nearly a hundred new countries. Channel owners in these countries will start receiving 50% of any revenue that Telegram makes from displaying ads in their channels.
To ensure ad payments and withdrawals are fast and secure, we will exclusively use the TON blockchain. Similar to our approach with Telegram usernames on Fragment, we will sell ads and share revenue with channel owners in Toncoin. This will create a virtuous circle, in which content creators will be able to either cash out their Toncoins — or reinvest them in promoting and upgrading their channels 🤑
Repost from Du Rove's Channel
After my last post, some people expressed concern that, as a result of ad sales exclusively for TON, Telegram may end up holding an unhealthy share of Toncoin, which will be too concentrated for a decentralized ecosystem. We acknowledge these concerns and have come up with a solution.
To limit Telegram’s share of TON at ≈10% of the supply, we’ll be selling the upcoming surplus of our TON holdings to long-term investors — under 1-4 years lockup and vesting plan, but at a discount to the market price. This way free-floating TON will get locked up, stabilizing the ecosystem and reducing volatility.
Potential investors in TON have been actively trying to reach out to us through various means. To make the process of any TON sales from Telegram fair and streamlined, we set up a new email address [email protected], where large investors ($1M+) can express their interest. Thanks to the participation of more long-term holders, TON will remain stable and decentralized.
