Ton network framework
The structure of Ton is a multi-layered multi-chain structure, including the main chain (masterchain), work chain (work chain) and shard chain (shard chain). The main chain is equivalent to the central manager, the work chain supports smart contracts and decentralized applications (DApps), and the shard chain improves scalability and parallel transaction processing. Ton uses a PoS consensus mechanism, including verification nodes, Fisherman and proofreaders.

Ton road map
Strengthen the detection and punishment of non-validation nodes.
Create a cross-chain bridge connecting Ethereum and BNB smart chains.
Allow staking participants to conduct network-wide voting on the chain.
Implement payment channels to support instant micropayments.

Ton token situation
After Testnet 2 goes live, a total of 5 billion tokens will be minted, of which 1.45% will be allocated to developers and testers. The reward tokens in the PoS stage are close to 20% of the amount of pledged tokens, the annual inflation rate is close to 2%, and the total number of tokens is expected to double in 35 years.

Ton use case
Payment: Including domain name (DNS), data storage, TON proxy, on-chain gas, cross-chain fees, etc.
Staking: To maintain network security, part of the tokens that have been slashed by the verification nodes will be destroyed.
Governance: Token holders can participate in network governance.

Ton’s future will benefit from its cooperation with Telegram and is expected to become an important force in the field of decentralized finance.
