The TON Foundation has partnered with Axelar to integrate its Mobius Development Stack (MDS) as the core solution for cross-chain interoperability. This collaboration aims to enhance The Open Network (TON) by enabling seamless asset transfers between TON and other blockchains, setting the stage for the development of decentralized cross-chain applications.
Why Axelar’s MDS Is A Game-Changer For TON
Axelar’s Mobius Development Stack provides an open and developer-friendly toolkit designed for secure, one-click integration across multiple networks. This solution aligns with the TON Foundation’s goal to eliminate fragmented liquidity and improve the cross-chain experience for users by ensuring that digital assets are not isolated on separate chains.
“Axelar MDS is an ideal choice for a TON interoperability layer: it’s an open, developer-friendly stack that enables secure, one-click integration for building apps across networks,” said Anthony Tsivarev, director of ecosystem development at the TON Foundation, in a press release.
Enhancing TON with Cross-Chain Capabilities
TON developers will leverage the MDS stack to solve a longstanding issue: the lack of effective interoperability solutions within the TON ecosystem. By integrating Axelar’s platform, they aim to facilitate smooth asset transfers across Ethereum, Cosmos, Polkadot, and other networks.
This move will also support the growth of decentralized apps (dApps) on TON, enabling developers to build cross-chain applications without complexity. With the improved connectivity, the TON ecosystem hopes to encourage more use cases for Telegram’s 950 million active users, expanding opportunities for users to interact with services and dApps directly within the app.
Expanding the Ecosystem Through Telegram’s Mini-Apps
TON’s ecosystem has recently seen significant engagement through Telegram-based games like Hamster Kombat and Notcoin, which offer users the chance to earn crypto tokens issued on TON. However, the absence of effective bridges to other blockchains has previously hindered the platform’s scalability and liquidity.
With Axelar’s integration, the TON Foundation expects to streamline the user experience, allowing users to transfer and manage assets across chains with ease—without leaving the Telegram app. This unified cross-chain experience could help TON attract new users and reduce confusion over managing tokens on multiple platforms.
Axelar’s platform is known for connecting major blockchains, including Ethereum, Cosmos, and Polkadot, and its infrastructure ensures security and flexibility for developers. The TON Foundation’s decision to adopt Axelar MDS underscores its commitment to becoming a leader in Web3 connectivity while unlocking new possibilities for developers and users alike.

By bridging the gap between chains, TON is positioning itself as a key player in the rapidly evolving blockchain landscape, ready to tap into the power of interoperability and the massive Telegram user base.
This integration marks a critical milestone for the TON ecosystem, signaling a future of seamless asset transfers and cross-chain decentralized applications that could revolutionize the way users interact with blockchain networks.
