🫧 Tolk v1.3: moving toward a general-purpose languageAfter the previous post, this release may feel less surprising — but still a bit unusual.The reason is simple: Tolk is no longer evolving only as a contract language. It is becoming a foundation for the toolchain I described earlier.This release focuses on features beyond contracts — introducing general-purpose capabilities needed for libraries and frameworks.✅ Notable changes in Tolk v1.3:1. Type array<T> — dynamically sized arrays backed by TVM tuples. 2. Type unknown — a TVM primitive with unknown contents. 3. Type lisp_list<T> — nested two-element tuples (FunC-style). 4. Type string — text chunks backed by snaked cells, with StringBuilder for concatenation. 5. Compile-time string methods: "str".crc32(), "str".sha256(), etc. 6. Null coalescing operator — ?? like in TypeScript. 7. Import path mappings — importTON Builders

💎 WalletConnect now supports TON.WalletConnect's global network, which connects 500M+ users across 700+ wallets and facilitated more than $400B in transaction volume in 2025, now has access to TON's expanding stablecoin economy and DeFi ecosystem.To enable this, TON Connect protocol has been extended to support WalletConnect as a transport layer, allowing TON dApps to interact with multichain wallets without building wallet connection support from scratch.💎 What this means for the ecosystem: • Wallets with WalletConnect can now support TON with minimal integration effort. • Institutions gain access to TON's DeFi and liquidity layer. • Apps can attract non-TON native audiences.🏅 Fireblocks and SafePal are among the first to integrate TON through WalletConnect.

Sub-second finality: how to adapt your projectTON is rolling out Catchain 2.0, a consensus upgrade targeting sub-second block finality on mainnet in early April 2026.What's changing: – Block interval: ~2.5s → 200–400ms – Finalization lag: ~10s → ~1s – Throughput: up to ~5 blocks/secBut a faster chain alone won't help users if apps still rely on old API.We've published a step-by-step adoption guide covering:🔹 Wallets & dApps: switch to TON Center Streaming API v2. Handle all four statuses: pending → confirmed → finalized → trace_invalidated. 🔹 Self-hosted nodes & liteservers: update to the latest release with Catchain 2.0 support before mainnet activation. 🔹 Indexers: prepare for up to 10x more blocks/sec. Connect to testnet and verify no lag accumulates over 30+ minutes.Testnet already runs at sub-second speed. Test there now.MyTonWallet and tonscan.org already usedocs.ton.orgHow to adopt sub-second finalityTON Builders

💎 Why TON Pay?Payments shouldn’t require every builder to implement the same infrastructure.In Telegram apps, that often meant creating wallets, checkout flows and settlement logic from scratch.TON Pay simplifies the integration 🚀One SDK for Mini Apps, bots, and backend services. One-time payments, recurring payments, and subscriptions. Non-custodial, with funds remaining under user control.Focus on the product, not the payment stack. ⛏️TON Community | TON Coin | TON Hubs |X | YouTube | LinkedIn TON.org

Unfortunately, due to the Middle East conflict and safety conditions in the UAE area, we have made the decision to cancel Gateway Dubai, originally scheduled for May 1 and 2, 2026. This was a difficult call, but the safety and well-being of our community always comes first.If you purchased a ticket to Gateway through Luma, Moongate or Tribute, or booked hotel reservations through promocode, you will receive a refund within the next 14 days. For further questions, please contact: gateway@ton.org.We are currently examining different formats to produce a Gateway event before the end of this year. An announcement will be forthcoming in the near future. We look forward to seeing you soon.TON Builders

💎 TON builders, new infrastructure just landed.The TON Rust Node by RSquad Blockchain Lab is a production-grade implementation of the TON protocol built for modern, cloud-native environments and scalable validator operations.With container-first deployment, Docker images and Helm charts, spinning up a node can take less than 10 minutes, even without deep TON-specific experience.On top of that, Nodectl provides a unified control plane to manage validator fleets, covering elections, staking, governance, and analytics.Security is also built in: private keys are never stored unencrypted, with HashiCorp Vault integration and a clear separation between execution and custody.Infrastructure like this is what helps the TON ecosystem scale.Start building 👇👉 TON - Rust Node Docs 👉 RSquad - TON Rust Node 👉 Watch VideoTON Foundation TON Community
