We are proud to advance our commitment to the TON Foundation (Telegram Open Network) blockchain by launching two validator nodes.

Officially labeled under DWF Labs, these validator nodes represent a significant step of conviction in TON by helping to support the blockchain’s infrastructure and security.

Validators play a crucial role in securing layer 1 blockchains like TON; they are responsible for verifying transactions, maintaining the blockchain’s integrity, and ensuring its overall efficiency. The launch of these validator nodes not only contributes to the decentralization of the TON blockchain but also honors the firm’s ongoing commitment to the TON ecosystem.

This initiative follows our substantial $10 million investment into the TON Ecosystem one year ago, as well as a sponsorship of TON’s Hack-a-Ton in South Korea earlier this year.
