TON’s Broxus launches blockchain app scalability platform TON Factory

The Open Network (TON) ecosystem participant Broxus has unveiled TON Factory, a new platform designed to accelerate the development and scalability of high-throughput applications like decentralized exchanges (DEXs) and blockchain-based games.

In an April 30 post on Telegram, the project said TON Factory aims to help developers rapidly build and scale projects with modular components, integration tools, and hands-on expert support.

“For OGs already building on TON, TON Factory helps you scale further,” the announcement stated.

The initiative is backed by a team of over 150 engineers with experience delivering production-ready infrastructure in the TON ecosystem, per the announcement.

The underlying architecture leverages Broxus’ Tycho protocol, which combines the TVM with a Directed Acyclic Graph (DAG) consensus mechanism.

This hybrid design is intended to achieve near-instant finality and high throughput, reportedly handling up to 35,000 transactions per second (TPS), a benchmark that could position TON Factory as a serious competitor to other layer-1 and layer-2 scaling solutions:

“TON Factory also supports custom TVM chain deployments and offers tailored scaling solutions, helping ambitious teams drive the ecosystem forward.”

At the time of writing, Toncoin, the native cryptocurrency of The Open Network (TON), is trading at $3.22, down around 1% in the past 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap.

In March 2025, the TON Foundation said several venture capital firms invested more than $400 million in the TON blockchain, signaling growing interest in the Telegram messaging ecosystem.
