The Open Network (TON) is putting crypto in every pocket. By building the Web3 ecosystem within Telegram Messenger, TON is giving billions the opportunity to own their digital identity, data, and assets.
Yescoin has developed from Tap2Earn to Play2Win where users compete for crypto prizepools.
Its new Play2Win model promises to redistribute revenue to users via token buybacks and real-life prizes.
Can this new model be more sustainable?

Flipster x TON Campaign is Live: Join Now!
Flipster, a cryptocurrency derivatives trading exchange, has launched another exciting campaign. Ready to earn rewards? Here’s what’s on the table:
▪️Earn up to 29% APR on USDT-TON deposits ▪️Deposit USDT to win Toncoin ▪️Learn about TON and USDT to earn rewards
How will this support fuel growth? Peter Fenton, Partner at Benchmark said it best:
“Telegram’s user base, which is expected to grow to over 1.5 billion through 2030, creates an unprecedented opportunity in the history of humanity to provide ubiquitous financial flows that have been limited until now to information flows, TON provides the backbone for human-scale democratization of financial activity.”
📈 Good month for The Open Network: the biggest names in venture capital invested over $400M into TON and publicly backed it. Among them are the legends of Silicon Valley: Sequoia, Benchmark, Ribbit, Draper, VY, and other world-famous funds 💸
🪙 Over the past year, TON has become the backbone of creator economy on Telegram. It is the exclusive withdrawal method for millions of content creators and mini app developers and the only way to pay for Telegram Ads in most countries. Every Telegram-related asset — from usernames to digital gifts — is tradeable solely as a TON-based NFT, and Telegram Mini Apps use TON exclusively as their blockchain. Telegram’s in-app economy is exploding in volume, fueled by constant innovation — like the Star Messages we launched earlier this month, an overnight success rivaled only by the tokenized gifts introduced in January 🎁
⛏️ What’s more, The Open Network remains the only blockchain technology built to scale — with sharding and the capacity to process transactions for billions of users. It’s one of the few blockchain networks with real, fundamental value. I’m not surprised the smartest people on the planet are endorsing TON 🚀
