Founder Telegram Pavel Durov said On Thursday, it was announced that the transaction fee on the TON blockchain would be reduced sixfold within one week to 0,00039 TON. This is approximately equal to half a tenth of a cent, and this amount will remain fixed regardless of network congestion.
Moreover, judging by his tweetAccording to the TON roadmap, most transactions will be completely free in the future:
Zero commission. MTONGA.
Previously, the transaction processing fee hovered around 0,00234 TON. The new rate of 0,00039 TON is fixed and will not increase sharply during periods of high load, which distinguishes TON from virtually all other existing blockchains.
In comparison, during periods of high load, users Ethereum could pay from $2 to $15 per transaction, while the same figure in the Bitcoin network ranged from $1 to $5. Even Solana, which is considered one of the cheapest networks by this indicator, may face a sharp increase in fees as traffic increases.
TON’s fixed fee of 0,0005 TON represents a new industry-wide low.
Potentially, the reduction in fees should increase activity in the TON ecosystem and slightly increase the price of the Toncoin cryptocurrency, as it is used in all transactions.
The change will be implemented automatically via a protocol update within seven days, so all wallets and services will reflect the new rate without any manual intervention.
