Protocol audits are certainly good, but trust can also be earned in other ways. The code can be reviewed by experts, yet true confidence arises when every participant understands where liquidity is held and how the smart contracts work.
If you clearly explain how these protocols function, it becomes much easier to inspire people to join in. Fortunately, TON has Telegram, where everyone is ready to help.

«Build DeFi products for holders who long Toncoin. The rest will follow.» - Steve Yun, TVM Ventures
I partly agree, but DeFi must also attract new users—through convenience, simplicity, and potentially high returns. If all three factors come together, it benefits everyone: users, the project, and the entire ecosystem.

When creating the Telegram Mini app, it's very expensive to do everything beautifully from the start.
Username with a simple word - minimum $2k.
Attach it to a bot - $3k (1000 TON).
To register a company - $10k.
And that's without taking into account development🍿 Now it's clear why projects are suffering.
Of course, you can do with a standard bot, a server for $12 and get a 10% commission from users (Hi, Mr. Freeman), but these are isolated cases.
If you want it done nice and right, you're going to have to pay.

So, I promised to share everything that is happening with the project. Remember – openness equals trust.

People are divided into two camps: those who see the potential of TON and those who see its problems. But if the ecosystem finds balance, these groups can unite into a strong community.

I’m looking at the development of AI in DeFi on other blockchains, not just TON, and I’m wondering: do we even need websites and design if everything can be done in a chat? You type “add liquidity” – the agent does it, you type “swap” – the agent executes the trade. Is design still relevant? 🎨

There is a clear trend toward aggregators. However, to create a successful and commercially profitable DeFi project on TON, one must either outperform existing solutions or tap into current consumer demand. But demand does not drive the market—it always lags behind the future.

Why do the founders of TON projects create their own channels separately from the project’s official ones? Because personalized business will be a trend in the next couple of years and will outperform anonymous businesses. This is already working in China and the US. Pure cynicism.

Bringing a TON blockchain user to your platform is easy. Keeping them is a bit harder. Attracting a wealthy user is even more challenging—you have to find them first. And the only way to retain such a user is through income.

Right now, projects on the TON blockchain are divided. Some are adapting to Stars to provide an easy entry for Telegram users, while others are focusing on the most dedicated TON enthusiasts. Who will win?

Working on a project with multiple people is tough, especially if they haven’t worked together before. One ends up redoing what the other did.
It’s financially draining while the team adjusts to each other, but once synergy kicks in, it works at 200%.
Looks like I’m ready to launch the first stage of Palette Finance. Maybe even today.

When deciding how to launch the project, I chose to start with a tried-and-true approach — a referral system and a simple onboarding.
We based it on the DOGS concept, where users earned points for the life of their Telegram account. But since we’re building a DeFi project, we had to focus on onchain wallet activity — and that’s exactly what we’ve done.
You open the app, connect your wallet — and you’re in. The higher your balance, the more points you earn.
t.iss.one/PaletteFinanceBot/palette
You might say there are already similar projects in TON, but trust me — not like this. If your balance changes — your points change. If your referrals’ balances change — your points also change. It’s all dynamic.
In DeFi, capital matters. This system helps us identify our core audience. Invite whales and get 10% of their balance as points — they’ll remain your referrals for the lifetime of the project.
Later on, this system will be phased out, and the points earned will be locked and rewarded for early adopters.
This is just the very first step of a much bigger product🎨 @Palette.

Today I was once again reminded how people from EVM networks badly understand TON blockchain — and how much TON community enjoys teasing them for it 😁

Right now, it’s hard to call Palette a true DeFi product — and I fully understand that. Let me explain what’s going on.
We’ve built a “big monster” that collects data from your wallet to show it back to you in the form of analytics. And, of course, to better understand who our users are.
Currently, the total balance across all users is $36M — not bad at all.
Once we start factoring in your balance and have full visibility of your assets, we’ll suggest how to allocate them across the TON ecosystem to generate the highest yield.
This will happen gradually — you won’t miss a thing.

New DeFi projects on TON blockchain appear every month, but just as many disappear monthly (like Range Finance and Delea Finance recently). They didn’t even get a chance to show their potential. It’s hard for projects on TON at the beginning, but once they gain an audience and TVL, it gets easier.

It’s so hard to find SVG logos when you’re an aggregator. Some projects don’t publish any media kit, others combine their logo with text, and some only use PNG. Why make life harder for those who actually want to be closer to you? 😢
