Ankr, a leading Web3 infrastructure platform, has recently announced a groundbreaking integration with The Open Network (TON) blockchain, opening up new horizons for developers seeking to create decentralized applications (DApps) for Telegram users.
The integration with Ankr’s Web3 API services promises to revolutionize the development process by eliminating the need for node management on the TON network. This strategic move will significantly accelerate the pace of development, allowing developers to focus on their core DApp functionalities and innovations.
Telegram, a messaging platform with a massive user base of approximately 950 million users, provides a fertile ground for DApp adoption. Popular TON-based DApps such as Hamster Kombat have already gained immense popularity, attracting millions of users within a short span of time.
By offering remote procedure calls (RPCs) connections through its platform, Ankr empowers developers to seamlessly interact with the TON network, enabling essential tasks like executing transactions, fetching wallet balances, and retrieving ownership information. The TON RPC endpoints, implemented via Asphere, create a geo-distributed network of blockchain nodes, ensuring low-latency access to the TON blockchain globally.
The integration not only streamlines the development process but also enhances the overall user experience for DApp consumers within the Telegram ecosystem. With node management complexities eliminated, developers can focus on delivering innovative functionalities and services, enriching the Telegram DApp landscape.
Furthermore, the recent strategic investment in the TON blockchain signifies a growing interest in expanding the ecosystem and accelerating the development of TON-powered applications. The collaboration between Ankr and TON opens up new possibilities for developers to create diverse DApps catering to Telegram’s vast user base.
