TONX is a venture studio and infrastructure provider founded in 2021 by early developers and investors in The Open Network (TON) ecosystem, including a founder known as Dr. Awesome Doge and co-founder Pei. Dr. Awesome Doge has a background in blockchain technology and privacy research since 2013 and founded a large Chinese-speaking Bitcoin community. The firm is dedicated to building foundational technology for the TON blockchain, aiming to transform information flow into financial flow.
The company operates as a key infrastructure layer within the TON ecosystem, providing a suite of products for both developers and users. Its flagship product is the TONX API, an institutional-grade RPC (Remote Procedure Call) backbone that enables developers to build and scale decentralized applications (DApps) with high reliability. Other key products include Tonkey, a secure multi-signature wallet for asset management that secures over $100 million in assets, and KTON, a liquid staking protocol designed to unlock liquidity for institutional and retail users. TONX also supports the ecosystem through community-building efforts, such as organizing hackathons and running a $5 million accelerator program to fund and mentor startups developing on TON.
The company's business model is centered on providing infrastructure as a service, generating revenue from its institutional-grade API and other financial tools. It serves a wide range of clients, including DApp developers, MiniApps, gaming platforms, exchanges, and DeFi applications. By offering a stable and scalable development environment, TONX aims to reduce development time and costs for companies building on the TON network. The firm has established strategic partnerships with over 20 industry leaders, including Google Cloud, CoinGecko, and major crypto projects, to support a global user base.
