With the number of users exceeding 100 million in 2024, the Open Network (TON) has achieved an amazing turning point on its path towards mainstream acceptance.
The Open Network (TON) has achieved an amazing turning point on its path towards mainstream acceptance, with the number of users now exceeding 100 million in 2024. At the beginning of the year, the network only had 4.3 million members, so this marks an incredible increase of over 2,000% over a few months, according to CryptoQuant.
This rapid development can be largely attributed to TON’s close connection with the widely utilized Telegram messaging app. Users of this platform can quickly engage with TON’s decentralized ecosystem without having to follow difficult procedures, such as setting up a wallet. This accessibility has opened doors for numerous new people entering the Web3 and crypto space.

Mini-Apps and DeFi Growth Fuel TON Expansion
This growth is further fueled by the booming Telegram mini-app ecosystem. Rising in popularity, these mini-apps, such as Hamster Kombat, have helped TON onboard millions of users.
With 900 million monthly active users of Telegram, TON has a great potential audience and simpler access to interact with its blockchain technology. In-app purchases and other monetizing choices for developers improve TON’s appeal even more and entice even more producers into its system.
Another factor contributing to this rapid acceptance is TON’s growing prominence in distributed finance (DeFi). Around $400 million has been reached in total value locked (TVL) on the TON blockchain during the previous year, which has steadily increased.
Its ranking among the top 20 blockchains according to DeFi criteria during this growth demonstrates TON’s growing relevance in the larger crypto industry. TON is expected to keep on its increasing trend as more people swarm to its platform, therefore strengthening its place in the market.
There have, however, not been without difficulties with this enormous user migration. Growing TON popularity has occasionally resulted in network congestion; one famous example of this is the DOGS memecoin airdrop, which momentarily taxed the system and resulted in higher transaction fees.
Despite these challenges, TON’s integration into Telegram has been mainly considered successful, establishing Telegram as a significant participant in the always changing blockchain scene.
Concurrent with this are worries about wealth concentration inside the network. According to data, big holders retain a sizable share of TON’s supply, which begs issues regarding the possibility for price control and the general network decentralization.
Also, market volatility remains a major concern even if TON’s holding base has undergone exponential expansion. Meanwhile, the TON price has varied during the year; at the time of writing, the token is trading for $5.11, a 2.11% drop over the last 24 hours.
Notwithstanding these obstacles, many experts believe that TON’s expanding user base and ecosystem expansion will eventually assist the token to stabilize.
Adoption of TON is not just restricted to personal users; also, collaborations and integrations with other systems are quite important. One such is the well-known travel booking tool Travala, which bases on cryptocurrencies.
As we previously reported, Travala services over 600 international airlines and provides more than 2.2 million homes spread over 230 nations. Travala is projected to improve TON’s user base even more by merging with TON since this cooperation helps people to use TON’s blockchain for practical uses more easily.
