The Open Network To Attempt World Record for the Fastest Blockchain

The Open Network Foundation (TON Foundation) announces their upcoming attempt to officially be named the world’s fastest blockchain.

The public network performance test, which is scheduled for Oct. 31 at 15:00 UTC, will demonstrate the reliability, scalability, and speed of The Open Network (TON) blockchain. 

TON Foundation will collaborate with Alibaba Cloud, among others, to set up 256 servers for validator nodes and start a separate TON blockchain network for performance tests. 

Since 2022, the TON blockchain has experienced exponential growth. The network has seen a staggering 20-fold increase in addresses, skyrocketing from 170,000 to a remarkable 3.5 million. The growth of TON’s user base has come alongside the expansion of TON validator nodes to 350, creating a more decentralized network, now spread over 25 separate nations.

Throughout this rapid expansion, TON’s blockchain has upheld a notably reliable track record, with no documented major network disruptions.

The collaboration between TON Foundation and Telegram, announced on Sept. 13, underscores TON Foundation’s commitment to bringing decentralized technology to the mainstream. The upcoming performance test is a pivotal step in demonstrating the unique capabilities of the TON blockchain, now cemented as the trusted infrastructure layer for the Web3 ecosystem in Telegram.

“We look forward to Oct. 31 to confirm that the TON blockchain technically stands out among any other blockchain, especially in its ability to scale,” says Anatoly Makosov, Core Development Lead at TON Foundation. “This is the first large-scale public performance testing of TON – we’re just as excited as you are to see the results.”
