Hey all - does anyone know why ther are different addresses between the PoW giver contracts listed here: https://ton.org/docs/#/howto/pow-givers and the ones...

Suppose there is a web3 blog platform where people follow specific writers. Each follower has its own smart contract. Usually data such as "X follows Y" woul...

I probably need to use an off-chain backend for my project, but then my app would not be as decentralized as I want it to be. In the EVM ecosystem there is a...

Currently it is debated whether or not it is a good idea to temporary freeze the inactive mining wallets. Regardless of the discussion outcome, how exactly s...

It is known that TON is designed for scalability and can potentially withstand mass adoption in the future. But since it has not reached its full potential y...

Is there a size limit for bocs? I've heard values such as 64kb, but I don't know where this limit is defined. --- > This question was imported from Telegram ...

Suppose I need to store 50 000 objects and have the ability to sort them (e.g., find an object with the minimal value of some parameter). Is it possible and ...

According to TON whitepaper, the TON blockchain network supports multiple chains. What's the differences between these and which workchain should I use when ...

On TON blockchain there are special highload wallets that can send out multiple transactions at once. But they also have a limit — 255 transactions at once. ...

Suppose there is a mutex that locks some operations in the smart contract waiting for some other execution chains outside of the smart contract to finish. Is...

The cell structure on TON has strict limitations, it can contain up to 1023 bits and up to 4 references to other cells. But where does this reference limitat...

One of the primary differentiators of TON is the fact that it is an asynchronous block chain. This introduces concepts such as lamport time and crazy orderin...

What is the purpose of the Election contract on the TON blockchain, and why does it have a balance greater than the total stake of all validators combined? >...

Fully on-chain services are hard to find. I've seen the opinion that business isn't interested in making them because it's much easier to put a part of the s...

I don't fully understand the masterchain/workchain distinction yet. If someone sends me Toncoins, what chain does it send it in? Do I need to use the same ch...

In the Solidity programming language on the EVM, we need to be mindful of gas usage for each line of code. For now, the difference in gas cost in TON is stil...

Hierarchical Deterministic wallets (HD wallets) allow you to use one secret mnemonic and generate many different wallet addresses for the same user. Is this ...

I want to develop different things on TON, like: * Smart contracts * Telegram bots * Dapps What programming languages can be used for building these things? ...

I want to understand how TON as a blockchain works. I aim to understand: 1. Ton Virtual Machine 2. Blockchain Consensus I come from a Solidity background. Ar...

For many applications it's not reasonable to put all their data on the blockchain. So they need separate hosting for the things like a database, but they mig...

I'd like to know more about emission on TON blockchain. Where can I read about it? Or maybe instead of reading I should use an explorer to check some special...

As far as I understand, usually there is just one shard, but where can I check to see if if changed? --- > This question was imported from Telegram Chat: htt...

I found online mentions of projects using Solidity to build for TON instead of using FunC and Fift. Is this really possible to do? I already know Solidity an...

Where can I read details about BOC flags, including CRC ? ------- > This question was imported from Telegram Chat: https://t.me/tondev_eng/26701 https://t.me...

So, is there no way to speed up the rate of confirmations? Are you saying that the exchanges are simply asking for too high a number? Also, is there any way ...

TON uses logical time (also known as Lamport time) in messages to track the order of events. But how exactly that time is generated? --- > This question was ...

While building a dApp some questions arise such as "where to store static files for UI" and "where and how to cache data for the app to be responsive". Is th...

Currently TON blockchain consists of only one workchain and the masterchain. All the smart-contract code in masterchain and basic workchain is executed by TV...

Usually new blocks on TON blockchain are formed every new seconds so there's no reason to worry about waiting too long. But I've heard that under some circum...

Web3 aims to be decentralized, but it's not always so in reality. Sometimes there is a "higher power" that can intervene to some degree, such in the case of ...
