According to a recent announcement, The Open Network (TON) is setting out to become the fastest blockchain in the world. The TON Foundation has confirmed October 31, 2023, as the date to break this monumental record. This attempt will help demonstrate the reliability, scalability, and speed of The Open Network (TON) blockchain.

To achieve this ambitious goal, the TON Foundation intends to set up 256 servers for validator nodes and start a separate TON blockchain network for performance tests.

Speaking on the upcoming speed test, Anatoly Makosov, core development lead at TON Foundation, stated;

We look forward to October 31, 2023, to confirm that the TON blockchain technically stands out among any other blockchain, especially in its ability to scale. This is the first large-scale public performance testing of TON – we’re just as excited as you are to see the results.

The TON blockchain has recorded exponential growth since its launch. Its wallet addresses have surpassed 3.5 million in recent months. The adoption has coincided with TON validator nodes growth which now stands at 350, spread across 25 different nations. In addition, hundreds of builders on TON have launched amazing products. More recently, TON has partnered with Telegram to allow users to buy and sell Telegram usernames and IDs on Fragment, a TON-based auction platform.

In addition,  the TON Foundation has collaborated with EthSign in order to bring multi-chain, secure, and decentralized digital contract signing within the rapidly emerging TON-based Web3 ecosystem in Telegram.

Earlier this month, billion-dollar giant MEXC Ventures invested significantly in The Open Network (TON), marking its most ambitious layer-1 financial commitment. The choice of TON further brings recognition to the growth and development of the network.

Despite these positive developments, TON Coin (TON) has been struggling to maintain its bullish outlook. In the last 7 days, the digital asset has lost nearly 7 percent and is trading for $1.94 at the time of press. However, the Telegram messaging app-linked coin has recorded 500 percent gains over the last two years to reach a market cap of a little under $7 billion.

Despite losing around 65 percent since its all-time high of $5.29 almost two years ago, investors remain confident that the digital asset will reach new all-time highs in the next bull run.
