🔋 x 💵 Tonkeeper Battery can now be charged with USDT Immediately after the launch of Tether USD₮ on TON blockchain, we are happy to add support for it into Tonkeeper Battery. Once you receive USDT, you can send a couple of dollars to battery.ton and have your Battery recharged in a few seconds. After that you can pay with USDT and not worry about the fees — the Battery will take care of them! This is the real magic: even the fees for the very first transaction to battery.ton is going to be paid by the Battery (* for payments over 10 usdt). To the moon! 🚀

🔋Tonkeeper Battery We are excited to announce a major new feature: Tonkeeper Battery. It is in public beta and available on all mobile platforms starting today. Tonkeeper Battery removes an obstacle for newcomers: you can get a stablecoin or an NFT and use them right away without acquiring native coins to pay for gas. You won’t need to go to an exchange, pass KYC checks, enter a lot of details only to buy a random amount of coins you did not think you needed. With Tonkeeper Battery you will never have to worry about gas anymore. Top up your battery with a banking card or a stablecoin, and use all features of your wallet right away. How does it work? With Tonkeeper Battery you can receive tokens (stablecoins, NFTs etc.) and make payments with a token — without going to an exchange to buy coins to cover blockchain fees. Tonkeeper Battery pays your fees for you, automatically. You can charge the battery with one tap using in-app purchases, or with TON or stablecoins. Send a few dollars worth of stablecoins or TON to a special address: battery.ton and it will automatically apply charges to your account. Tonkeeper Battery is denominated in charges, each charge covers the fee of a simple TON transfer transaction. More complex transactions may consume 5, 10 or more charges. Start using battery today Update Tonkeeper on iOS and Android to version 4.3, then top up the battery in Settings → Battery. Once charged, the battery status will appear on the main screen. We are still testing the battery: some kinds of transactions are not supported yet. When charging via battery.ton we only support jUSDT and TON, other tokens will be added later.

⛈ Second denial-of-service attack against TON infrastructure We are witnessing a second round of denial-of-service attacks on TonAPI, dton and public liteservers. TonAPI receives most of the impact presumably due to its popularity. Check out the availability of the infrastructure in real time: 👉 tonstat.us The TON network remains operational, and your assets in Tonkeeper are safe. We will keep you updated as we are working on this issue.

🌥 Service fully resumed During yesterday's denial-of-service attack we have updated the TonAPI infrastructure and it is now fully operational. We are still working on further improvements to be able to withstand a similar attack should it repeat. Thank you for using TonAPI!

⛈ Targeted denial-of-service attack against TON infrastructure Some of the most popular infrastructure providers are experiencing a deliberate flood attack that leads to slower or interrupted service. This attack is aimed at our TonAPI servers, public liteservers, Ton Center, Getblock and Tonhub. Check out the availability of the infrastructure in real time: 👉 tonstat.us About the attack 1. Decentralized network of TON nodes is working normally. Transactions get validated at a stable pace of 50 tx/sec. 2. Your funds in Tonkeeper are safe: even if your Tonkeeper has trouble connecting to TonAPI, try again later. 3. This is a deliberate and planned attack. We see a mixture of low-level flood attack by UDP packets that clog the bandwidth and crafted requests aimed at exhausting resources of the indexing services (e.g. triggering expensive TVM evaluation). 4. We do not currently have an estimate when the attack will be mitigated. Every infra provider is trying to reconfigure or relocate their servers to hide them from the attackers' reach. This process may take hours or days. 5. Attackers are adapting quickly. We tried different quick options to divert the flood and noticed how attackers change tactics, discover new IP addresses and resume their activity. We are proud that our services are important and valuable in the TON community, so that it attracts such unwanted attention. Our team is working overnight to protect our services and come out stronger out of this. I thank all our users for your patience. Hold on tight! ❤️

🔥 Tonkeeper X We are entering 2024 by launching a new chapter for Tonkeeper with native mobile implementations on iOS and Android. Tonkeeper X will be released on App Store and Play Store as a separate application aimed at enthusiasts and fans of Tonkeeper. At first, it won’t have all the features as the regular Tonkeeper (hence you really ought to be our fan to put up with it :-), but there will be some unique and fun features going forward such as price widgets. We will collect feedback and evolve Tonkeeper X until it’s ready to be merged back into the stable version. When that happens, all of you will smoothly upgrade on the new design. Why Tonkeeper X? When we started Tonkeeper late in 2021, we decided to use multi-platform React-Native framework for its speed of development. As Tonkeeper grew in functionality all around, it is now time to put more effort into platform-specific navigation and security architecture. Going forward, over the next few months we are going to build up brand-new native architecture on Android and iOS, test it in the open using a separate app Tonkeeper X, and then merge it into the main Tonkeeper. We will also use React-Native framework for built-in services such as exchanges, swaps and staking. These services will be securely isolated from the core of the wallet, while sporting native look and feel. Download Tonkeeper X Tonkeeper X on Android Tonkeeper X on iOS pending App Store approval

🚀 Tonkeeper 3.5 It’s time to drop a new update, which is already available for download in app stores! Let’s dive in! 💎 Separate tabs for buying and selling TON Since Tonkeeper now has a region selector, services in the “Buy TON” section are separated into “Buy” and “Sell” tabs for a more streamlined user experience. 💎 Trade TON with other crypto It’s been a long time coming, but we’ve added crypto exchanges where you can swap and trade TON for other cryptocurrencies. They are available under the same tabs. 💎 Simplified user interface for staking We’ve received a lot of feedback about the staking cycle UI. It was confusing, so we removed it altogether. The best design is no design.

🚀 TON Network is fully operational Network validators have upgraded and now operating smoothly. 2.5 million transactions were fully cleared and finalized by 7:20 UTC on December 9. Tonkeeper and TonAPI are relaying transactions normally.

⏳ TON Blackout Radar TON is healing from a massive denial-of-service issue that started on December 5. 2.5 million transactions are stuck in the queue and validators are upgrading hardware in order to sort out the congestion quicker. We have put out a new monitoring page where you could see decongestion process at 10-minute intervals. Chart 1 shows cumulative amount of delayed transactions. Until it drops to zero, the network can only process very few new transactions. Chart 2 shows the rate of congestion/decongestion. Blue line shows clearance rate, red one — growth of the queued messages. In the next 10-20 hours we expect to see increase in the rate of decongestion: more and faster validators will join the next validation round. This page is a work-in-progress: there are a few bugs to fix in the morning. We will also add the timeline of events with commentary to keep you updated. The phoenix will rise once again. 👉 tonviewer.com/blackout 💙

TON20 Inscription Use-case on TON Starting on December 5th, The Open Network (TON) experienced an incredible spike in network activity, thanks to the BRC20 Bitcoin Ordinals type of inscription use-case, called TON20, launched by the Tonano team. Producing over 2 million transactions increased our network usage by 61 times within just half an hour. TON Community is proud to witness a creative use case take-off in TON driven by independent participants in the ecosystem. Moreover, this sudden growth has revealed many interesting insights for our blockchain. Dynamic sharding technology worked as expected. At its peak, TON split into eleven shardchains, stabilizing at five shardchains to handle the heavy load. At the same time, this phenomenon also revealed where the community should work to swiftly onboard the exponential increase in network activity expected in the near future. Network validators must ensure that TON is supported by hardware capable of scaling to the performance demanded by high usage. Network Performance Delays This peak interest also came with a severe congestion of TON network, where validation was severely delayed even though the network validators are still producing blocks. Popular wallets like @Wallet and Tonkeeper have paused the service temporarily. TON core developers are aware of the issues affecting users and are working on TON blockchain. An initial technical report is available here. TON core team will be providing us with a further update within the next 24 hours. We thank you and the community for your patience and unwavering support as we go through the growing pains together, preparing for the unprecedented growth season expected in the near future.
