TON is now 6x faster. Catchain 2.0 activation now live.

The voting for Catchain 2.0 has been successfully passed. Activation took place around 7:00 a.m. UTC.

Alongside faster block production, this creates a new opportunity for Toncoin holders.

Validators stake Toncoin to help secure the TON network and earn Toncoin from two sources: transaction fees and block creation rewards.

After the upgrade, the reward for each block remains the same: 1.7 Toncoin per masterchain block and 1.0 Toncoin per basechain block. With blocks produced much faster (~x6), validators are able to produce more blocks, which increases rewards per validation cycle. As a result, TON’s annual inflation is expected to rise from around 0.6% to around 3.6%.

For Toncoin holders, this makes staking more attractive. As validator rewards rise, the incentive to hold and stake Toncoin to secure the TON network becomes stronger.

At the same time, TON retains its burn mechanism, 50% of transaction fees are burned, which offsets part of the added issuance as activity grows. In the future, validators may vote to update rewards and burn mechanics to further balance TON’s tokenomics.

For users, that means two things:
– near-instant transactions
– more attractive staking

The blockchain is faster. Apps need to catch up. Read the integration guide to support the upgrade.

Faster chain. Better user experience. Better opportunities.

💎 TON is Now Up to 6x Faster

Sub-second finality is live.

Transactions now confirm in about 1 second, down from around 10 seconds before. Block times dropped from 2.5 seconds to 400 milliseconds to bring the on-chain experience closer to Web2 responsiveness.

What this unlocks:

Payments that feel like sending a message, trades that execute in real time, and apps that match the speed users expect from any modern product.

What this changes:

The network now produces more blocks, which increases validator rewards and strengthens staking incentives across the ecosystem.

For developers:

The blockchain is now fast. Your apps need to show it. Upgrade to streaming APIs to surface sub-second speed for your users.

Catchain 2.0 activation is underway

TON validators are voting to fully activate Catchain 2.0, a consensus upgrade that brings sub-second finality to the network.

The first phase has been live since April 2. Today, at 14:00 UTC, the final vote started to cut block times to 400 ms across the entire network.

To activate the upgrade, validators vote on-chain. The proposal needs support from at least 75% of validators (by stake weight) across two validation rounds, roughly 36 hours.
