The popularity of TON and USDT
TON (The Open Network) is the native token of the blockchain network of the same name, which is closely linked to the Telegram ecosystem. TON is used to transfer funds in chats, make payments within mini-apps, participate in DeFi protocols, stake, and work with on-chain services. It is one of the most notable L1 assets of the new generation with a developed ecosystem and high interest from the community.
Tether (USDT) is a stablecoin pegged to the US dollar (1 USDT ≈ 1 USD). Its main purpose is to maintain its value in dollar terms and reduce the impact of market volatility on your portfolio.
The TON/USDT pair has become popular because:
- TON is used as an asset with growth potential and access to the Telegram and DeFi ecosystems on the TON network;
- USDT is used as convenient “digital cash” to lock in profits and wait for new entry points.
