LAS VEGAS, July 22, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- TON Strategy Company (“TON Strategy” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: TONX), a digital asset treasury company dedicated to supporting the TON ecosystem, today highlighted the latest data and developer infrastructure advancements across The Open Network (“TON”), as well as planned enhancements intended to support greater network scale.
The latest update centers on the infrastructure used to store, access, and deliver blockchain data to applications. A redesigned architecture for indexed blockchain data separates frequently requested recent data from the network’s complete transaction history, allowing the information used most often to be processed more efficiently. As a result, queries involving recent blockchain data are now processed 2-4x faster.
TON also expanded its developer infrastructure with new APIs supporting staking pools and validator operations, along with additional support for decentralized applications, making it easier for developers to build products on the network. In addition, the underlying server infrastructure powering many TON ecosystem services was upgraded to improve performance and reliability.
These latest developments build on a series of upgrades completed earlier this year. Those upgrades improved how validators communicate, organize transactions, and reach consensus, including through a new networking layer that reduced network traffic by 2-4x while improving synchronization and node connectivity.
Together, these backend optimizations strengthen the core technology stack, accelerating data access for wallets, exchanges, and blockchain explorers to help applications maintain peak performance as network activity scales.
Looking ahead, TON’s development roadmap turns to addressing the next major scaling challenges: how work is divided across the network and how blockchain data is stored. Planned enhancements include a new collator and validator architecture which separates block construction from validation so network participants can specialize in different functions, and a next-generation database purpose-built for growing blockchain workloads. Together, these planned upgrades are expected to increase TON’s transaction processing capacity while preserving the network’s hallmark characteristics of sub-second performance and low transaction costs.
“As TON continues to mature, the focus naturally shifts from simply increasing speed to optimizing every component of the network,” said Kevin Wilson, Chief Executive Officer of TON Strategy. “I often think of it like a Formula 1 car. Once you’ve built an incredibly powerful engine, the next gains don’t come from adding more horsepower—they come from refining the aerodynamics, suspension, brakes, and every other system that contributes to performance. TON’s recent infrastructure upgrades reflect that same philosophy: continuously improving the underlying architecture so TON can support significantly greater activity as adoption expands across Telegram’s global footprint, while maintaining the sub-second speed, reliability, and low costs that developers and users expect.”
TON Strategy’s Gram treasury thesis is rooted in TON’s position as the native blockchain engine integrated with Telegram, creating a differentiated opportunity to bring blockchain-based applications to Telegram’s more than one billion monthly active users. By continuing to strengthen TON’s developer and consensus infrastructure, TON is improving the network’s ability to support millions of daily transactions* and supporting the long-term economic utility of Gram.
