OKX Ventures has recently entered into an exclusive collaboration with a couple of other platforms to launch a $10M Telegram Growth Hub. This collaboration includes Folius Ventures and The Open Platform, and aims to support and fund projects that enhance user engagement on TON.
The Telegram Growth Hub focuses on three main areas. The first area is onboarding users and educational tools, which involves projects that simplify the onboarding process through user-friendly experiences, making TON more accessible for new users.
Another aspect of the Growth Hub is the development of on-chain trading capabilities. This includes NFT and DEX trading, liquid staking, and other advanced trading functionalities. Additionally, the Growth Hub will also focus on creating advanced mini-apps for Telegram, such as entertainment and gaming applications, to expand the use cases of TON.
The selected projects participating in this collaboration will receive comprehensive support, including funding for community building and talent acquisition. They will also have access to resources for developers, such as OKX Connect, and a wide range of tools. The Growth Hub will provide guidance, networking opportunities, and mentorship from industry experts.
Jeff Ren, a partner at OKX Ventures, expressed his recognition of the significant potential of the Telegram ecosystem. The integration of Ton with Telegram’s massive user base, which boasts approximately 1 billion active users in 30 days, greatly increases the potential for widespread adoption of the ecosystem.
This strong connection enhances the chances of Ton’s success in reaching a broader audience. Andrey Klebanov, the MD of The Open Platform, stated that their goal is to empower builders by providing them with the necessary resources and tools to develop scalable and influential solutions for The Open Network (TON).
