Aiming to accelerate the growth of scalable decentralized applications (DApps), Broxus—an active contributor to The Open Network (TON) ecosystem—has introduced a new development platform called TON Factory. The initiative is focused on equipping developers with tools and support needed to build and scale applications such as decentralized exchanges (DEXs) and blockchain-based games, which require high transactional throughput.
The launch was announced via a Telegram post on April 30, where the project team described TON Factory as a modular, developer-oriented framework designed to streamline the creation and deployment of performance-driven projects on the TON blockchain. The announcement emphasized that the platform caters not only to new developers but also to experienced builders already active in the TON ecosystem who are looking to scale their solutions more efficiently.
Backed by an Expert Engineering Team
The development of TON Factory is supported by a team comprising over 150 engineers, all of whom have contributed to building production-grade infrastructure within the TON ecosystem. According to project representatives, the platform has been specifically optimized for developers working on layer-2 solutions and application-specific chains (appchains) that rely on the TON Virtual Machine (TVM) technology.
The team noted that the new platform is designed to ensure robust connectivity with the core TON network while offering flexibility for customization. Developers building decentralized applications with performance requirements can reportedly benefit from this environment by leveraging the platform’s modular architecture, expert guidance, and integration-ready components.
Tycho Protocol Forms the Technological Core
TON Factory operates on Broxus’ proprietary Tycho protocol, which blends the TON Virtual Machine with a Directed Acyclic Graph (DAG)-based consensus model. This hybrid architecture is expected to deliver both high throughput and low latency, aiming to provide near-instant transaction finality. According to the developers, the system can handle up to 35,000 transactions per second (TPS), placing it in contention with other established layer-1 and layer-2 blockchain solutions in terms of performance.
The platform further allows for the deployment of customized TVM-based chains, offering tailored scaling solutions for developers with ambitious performance goals. In doing so, it reinforces Broxus’ mission to expand the capabilities of the TON ecosystem and support a new generation of DApps.
Building on a Proven Track Record
Broxus has already established itself as a key infrastructure provider within the TON environment, having developed decentralized finance (DeFi) tools such as FlatQube—a decentralized exchange, Octus Bridge—a cross-chain connectivity solution, and Ever Wallet—a secure crypto wallet. The company continues to focus on TVM-based ecosystems, helping them scale through tools that balance usability with high performance.
The growing momentum within the TON ecosystem is also reflected in recent investments. In March 2025, the TON Foundation disclosed that several prominent venture capital firms had collectively invested over $400 million into the network. Investors included Sequoia Capital, Draper Associates, Ribbit Capital, Benchmark, CoinFund, Hypersphere, and several others, who expressed confidence in the ecosystem by purchasing Toncoin—the network’s native cryptocurrency.
TON’s Evolution and Ecosystem Growth
Although initially developed by Telegram’s founders, the TON blockchain now functions as an independent and decentralized network. It is closely tied to the Telegram messaging ecosystem, particularly through support for Mini Apps. These lightweight applications have become a cornerstone of Telegram’s user experience, and the introduction of TON Factory signals an intent to scale this functionality even further through enhanced developer tooling.
At the time of reporting, Toncoin was trading at $3.22, showing a slight decline of about 1% over the past 24 hours, based on CoinMarketCap data. Despite market fluctuations, the ecosystem’s infrastructural growth—driven by tools like TON Factory—is positioned to support long-term adoption and developer interest across Web3.
With TON Factory, Broxus is setting the stage for a new wave of high-performance blockchain applications, offering a plug-and-play development framework that bridges technical complexity with modular flexibility.
