Working Title: "The Meeting of Telegram and TON: Opening a New Chapter in the Popularization of Web3."
@April, I am assigning this article to you because you are adept at conducting interviews. Please ensure the content highlights that the combination of Telegram and TON is a key driver in the popularization of Web3 and handle it meticulously.
Is there anything else you need assistance with?
Yes, we will prepare.
@Logan, please review this analysis and provide feedback. You are well-suited for this task due to your deep understanding of this field.
All right.
Let's begin the analysis.
This time, we will analyze the impact of the integration of Telegram and TON blockchain on the blockchain industry. Interviewee Seunghyun Kang emphasized that Telegram's strong user base would play a significant role in the proliferation of the TON blockchain. Telegram has 950 million monthly active users (MAU), and this number could potentially increase to 1.5 billion by 2028. This can serve as a major factor in naturally exposing Telegram users integrated with TON to blockchain and digital assets within the blockchain industry.
The Telegram Mainnet TON is characterized as one of the few blockchain networks directly combined with the Telegram messenger. Seunghyun Kang compared it to a structure wherein one can use banking functions with just an email address on the web, highlighting the ease of access and significant advantage in user experience. This lowers entry barriers and allows for a more approachable interaction with users, facilitating the popularization of Web 3.0.
Additionally, TON plays an important role in expanding the blockchain ecosystem through integration with traditional Web2 companies. It focuses on integrating with Web2 companies rather than Web3, seeking opportunities through close partnerships with existing large corporations and collaborating with companies that have a large user base.
Looking at the Korean market, the number of Telegram users is relatively small, at around 5 million. However, Korea is considered a market familiar with messengers and social platforms, indicating a high acceptance rate for Telegram-based blockchain services. If security and trustworthiness are enhanced through collaboration with the Korean government, the image of TON could be significantly improved.
The 'KTon' community built by Seunghyun Kang is a crucial result of these efforts. Invitations to global projects and large-scale meetups at KBW 2024 are examples that demonstrate the scalability and connectivity of the TON ecosystem in practice. Assisting developers and founders in entering the ecosystem and leading collaborations with various TON Foundation programs will be crucial in sustainably expanding the TON ecosystem.
Ultimately, Seunghyun Kang expressed that it's time for projects that prove real use cases to gain market trust, advising investors to pay attention to projects with genuine value. The analysis suggests that the combination of TON and Telegram has high potential for significantly contributing to the spread and popularization of blockchain.
