Bringing the first successful decentralized exchange model to The Open Network.
TonDelta is a pioneering initiative to port the core logic of EtherDelta—Ethereum’s first fully decentralized exchange—to the TON blockchain. By rewriting this foundational DeFi protocol in Tact, we are proving that complex, order-book based financial primitives can thrive in TON's asynchronous, actor-based architecture.
We are building the bridge between the history of DeFi and its future on Telegram.
While AMMs (Automated Market Makers) dominate modern DeFi, they suffer from impermanent loss and lack the precision of order books.
- Order Book Gap: Truly decentralized, on-chain order books are rare on TON due to the complexity of managing state in an asynchronous environment.
- Developer Barrier: Porting Solidity logic to TON's TVM is historically difficult, creating a barrier for Ethereum veterans entering the ecosystem.
TonDelta is a fully functional, trustless exchange smart contract written in Tact. It stays true to the original EtherDelta design while adapting to TON's unique capabilities.
- Trustless Order Book: Makers place orders on-chain; Takers fill them directly. No off-chain matching engine required.
- Native & Jetton Support: Seamlessly trade TON and any Jetton (Top-20, Memecoins, Stablecoins).
- Censorship Resistant: No admin keys, no pause functionality, fully immutable logic.
- Tact Native: Written in the modern, type-safe Tact language, serving as a reference implementation for complex DeFi logic.
TonDelta overcomes significant technical challenges to bring this model to life:
- Asynchronous Settlement: Handles Maker/Taker trade flows across shardchains without locking liquidity.
- Optimized Storage: Utilizes
map<Address, Int>with custom SHA256-based address derivation to efficiently store order books and user balances withoutCell underflowlimits. - Gas Efficiency: Streamlined logic ensures low-cost order placement and execution.
- Smart Contract Port: Full reimplementation of
Deposit,Withdraw,Order, andTradein Tact. - Unit Testing: Comprehensive test suite verifying all economic flows in the Sandbox environment.
- Security Hardening: Resolved serialization and underflow edge cases.
- Telegram Mini App (TWA): A "trading terminal in your pocket." Full DEX UI embedded directly in Telegram.
- TON Connect Integration: One-click login and signing for 900M+ Telegram users.
- Push Notifications: Real-time alerts for order fills via Telegram bot.
- Mainnet Launch: Deploying the immutable contract to TON Mainnet.
- Liquidity Program: Incentives for early market makers.
- SDK Release: TypeScript SDK for bots and aggregators to plug into TonDelta liquidity.
(For TON Grant Committee)
- Technical Showcase: TonDelta serves as a powerful case study for porting Solidity applications to Tact, lowering the barrier for EVM developers.
- DeFi Diversity: It brings a classic Order Book model to the TON DeFi ecosystem, offering an alternative to AMMs.
- Telegram-First: Designed from day one to live inside a Telegram Mini App, leveraging TON's biggest competitive advantage.
