Introducing TAC: A Gateway to TON and Telegram
TAC is a blockchain crafted specifically to permit Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) dApps to tap into TON and Telegram’s expanding blockchain-based economy. With the general public mainnet now live, the native $TAC token is making waves by serving because the on-chain currency for gas fees, staking, and governance on TAC’s Ethereum-compatible Layer-1.

The Role and Utility of the $TAC Token
The $TAC token plays three crucial roles inside the network. First, it functions because the exclusive gas token on TAC EVM, converting TON-denominated fees into $TAC, which fosters ongoing demand as network activity increases. Secondly, it boosts network security through a Delegated Proof-of-Stake (DPoS) model, requiring validators to stake $TAC for block production. Token holders can delegate their $TAC to validators, potentially earning annual returns between 8-10%. Finally, $TAC empowers on-chain governance, enabling stakers to influence upgrades, incentive programs, and the community treasury.
In the words of Pavel Altukhov, TAC co-founder, “TAC enhances the TON ecosystem with a ready-to-use DeFi layer, battle-tested and live from day one. This is a significant leap for not only TON but also for Telegram’s journey to becoming a true super app, allowing builders to integrate mature blockchain use cases into products that reach a billion users.”

Built for Scale: Infrastructure Partnerships and Funding
TAC is a Layer 1 blockchain built using CosmosEVM architecture, ensuring seamless compatibility with Ethereum’s Cancun hard fork.

TAC’s security is further bolstered by Babylon integration, introducing Bitcoin staking to reinforce consensus validation. Partnerships with leading infrastructure providers similar to LayerZero, RedStone, Blockscout, Dune, and Thirdweb are setting the stage for a robust, scalable, and developer-friendly ecosystem.
The mainnet launch follows TAC’s successful funding rounds totaling $11.5 million, led by Hack VC, announced on June 18.
