The Open Network (TON), a blockchain project associated with Telegram, has launched TON Factory, a new platform designed to accelerate the development and scalability of high-throughput applications such as decentralized exchanges (DEX) and blockchain games.

In a Telegram post on April 30, the project stated that TON Factory aims to help developers quickly build and scale projects by providing modular components, integration tools, and on-the-ground expert support.

The announcement mentioned: "For the old players who have already built on TON, TON Factory will help you further expand."

The initiative has received support from over 150 engineers who have experience in delivering production-ready infrastructure within the TON ecosystem.

The underlying architecture of TON Factory utilizes the Broxus Tycho protocol, which combines the Television Virtual Machine (TVM) and Directed Acyclic Graph (DAG) consensus mechanism.

This hybrid design aims to achieve near-instant finality and high throughput, reportedly capable of processing up to 35,000 transactions per second (TPS), which may position TON Factory as a strong competitor to other Layer 1 and Layer 2 scaling solutions.

"TON Factory also supports custom TVM chain deployment and provides tailored expansion solutions to help ambitious teams drive the development of the ecosystem."

According to CoinMarketCap data, as of the time of writing, the native cryptocurrency of The Open Network, Toncoin (TON), is trading at $3.22, having decreased by about 1% in the past 24 hours.

In March 2025, the TON Foundation stated that several venture capital firms have invested over $400 million in the TON blockchain, demonstrating an increasing interest in the Telegram messaging ecosystem.
