📚 Masterclass on TON Blockchain and smart contract architecture by @oleganza of @tonkeeper at the @hackaton2022 in Prague.
Topics covered included:
✅ Scalability through infinite sharding
✅ The asynchronous actor model
✅ smart contracts in TON should have O(1) computation time - no long lists!
✅ smart contracts should aim to have just one job to be done. If a contract does 2 things (ie send token, time lock calculation) - consider splitting into 2 separate contracts
✅ Wallet "plugins" to avoid lengthy asset lists held inside wallets (again, O(1))
✅ Ton API (https://tonapi.io/) for exploring smart contract TRACEs, EVENTs, and ACTIONs
✅ Abstraction of some repetitive FunC smart contract workload via a high level language, TACT (https://tact-lang.org/)
Key takeaway:
👉 Smart contracts on TON are much more complicated than on ethereum, but this slight inconvenience for developers is worth it.

TON Society is excited to share the TON Diamonds art-video of the exhibition Annihilation by Ellen Sheidlin at the Louvre Museum in Paris. 👏
To see the video w/o downloading: https://twitter.com/ton_society/status/1577988406482714625?s=20&t=z2i9Rn1bTo9x1LQQpMeC3w
This event which took place Sep 1-4 was historical: First ever participation of TON NFT in a worldwide platform with a famous artist Ellen Sheidlin in a captivating space in Louvre Museum.
During this exhibition, we had the chance to share about the capabilities of TON blockchain and the NFT market with artists from all over the world. We also established contacts and arrangements with international artists. Feedback and tags on social media and channels were also gained. TON Diamonds also gave the holders the opportunity to visit the exposition free of charge.
All of the above are significant milestones in the development of the NFT and TON blockchain at the international level. TON Diamonds is blazing a trail and aims to create a marketplace whereby digital art from famous artists are traded, strategy that is differentiated from previous collections/marketplaces.
TON Diamonds will also host an exhibition in Dubai on October 14-15.
TON Society believes that NFT is here to stay and support teams that are trail blazing utility and real life artist conversion to this space.

TON contributors in action. For those seeking Q&A about TON related topics, please help pilot this program and provide feedback.
Forwarded from talkol
I want to announce that we're doing a soft launch for a pilot on the new community Q&A site that shamelessly copies StackOverflow!
https://answers.ton.org
I'm a big StackOverflow fan and we did a pilot for TON Q&A on SO that ended badly (our questions were deleted). We had to move to a self moderated solution. Read more about this experience here.
I volunteered to push this forward and run a pilot for a couple of months. We'll decide if this platform is good enough to stay after the pilot. Please use it and give feedback (or better, help me improve it).
@slavafomin and @dani_goose are helping me moderate, if you want to volunteer, please DM me.

While all the attention of our social networks was absorbed by IDO, one of our developers visited Prague and was a mentor and a judge at the TON Hack-a-TON.
We asked him to talk about the three days of development and networking. Read about his impressions: young talent, ecosystem product founders, yummy food, and a photo report here👈

Survey for TON developers 💫
Developers in the TON ecosystem may experience some problems reading the documentation because it is written in a complex language, often lacking examples or materials on essential parts of the TON blockchain.
The goal for the TON ecosystem is to create next-generation documentation accessible to everyone: both beginners and experienced developers.
To achieve it, we decided to collect feedback from the community. So we kindly ask all members of our community to share their experiences through the survey.
It consists of 10 questions and will take no more than 5 minutes.
Participate in the survey:
