Next steps of the TON successors

TONCommunity.org, one of the many spin-offs of the unleashed Blockchain Telegram network, has announced that its tetsnet is now live.

After announcing plans to create a separate TON network in late May, TONCommunity.org launched its testnet on July 28th.

With the launch of the testnet, TONCommunity.org stores a drop of mainnet chips, known as "TONcoins". The latest drop is available to all Telegram users and contains 10 million TONcoins, 

TONCommunity.org, originally established in China, has been operating internationally since its establishment in May 2020. Key members of the project are now from countries such as China, Singapore and Russia.

Supported by the Chinese TON Community, TONCommunity.org is not the only successor to the official TON network. There are at least two other initiatives that have decided to implement the original Telegram's open block technology after the Telegram had to finish the project after a failed legal battle with US regulators.
