Stonfiers! TON’s latest upgrade reduces network fees by ~6× in line with Pavel Durov’s MTONGA plan.
The previous Catchain 2.0 update laid the groundwork by improving overall blockchain performance. Since then, the team has continued stacking optimizations.
Numbers behind this update:
- Cheaper on-chain actions: fees went down to about ~$0.0005 per transaction
- That’s about 6× cheaper, or roughly 83% lower fees!
Simple example:
Let’s consider a TON ⇄ USDt swap.
- Before: ~0.0292 TON (≈ $0.039) fee
- Now: ~0.00487 TON (≈ $0.0065) fee
Want to feel it in practice? Swap on STON.fi and enjoy lower fees with near-instant confirmations.
Stay tuned — there’s more to come!
