This is 2026 and $TON ecosystem is moving at lightspeed, and TON’s leading DEX just dropped a massive redesign. I spent the last few hours stress-testing the new STON.fi website. As a daily user, here’s my honest breakdown of why this is a game-changer for the ecosystem.
1.The "Zero-Friction" Experience The first thing you’ll notice is the Omniston integration. It’s not just a mere UI change; it’s a performance beast. Aggregated Liquidity: I noticed tighter spreads on mid-cap TON tokens.Speed: The "One-Click" philosophy is real. Connecting a @tonkeeper or Telegram wallet feels native and lag-free.Analytics: The LP dashboards are now far more transparent, showing real-time APY without digging through layers of menus.
2. Trust & Security In a world of rugpulls, seeing the Trail of Bits audits and open-source documentation front-and-center builds immediate confidence. The site feels less like a "web app" and more like a professional financial terminal.
🎁 Alpha Leak: Launch Contest? The team dropped a special contest specifically for the website launch running till 16th January, 2026. Given STON.fi’s history, these usually involve decent incentives for the community. I’m keeping my notifications on for this one.
The quiet accumulation phase is over in the $TON ecosystem. While everyone is chasing the next big L2 narrative, the real liquidity is moving into STON.fi. TON has been quietly building some serious momentum, and STONfi is emerging as one of its most promising DEXs. The current farming pools, and the numbers are really worth liquidity providers attention. But let's look into the actual mechanics.
1. TONG/TON → 170% APR For those who aren't familiar, TONG is one of the most resilient community-led memecoins on TON. 170% is massive, but remember—this is a high-volatility pair. This is essentially a bet on the TON meme-season. If TONG holds its floor or climbs alongside TON, the rewards from the farm can easily offset any minor price fluctuations. It’s perfect for those who already hold TONG and want to turn that "idle" asset into a rewarding one. Of course, high APRs come with volatility risk—TONG is still a relatively young token—but for users who believe in the long-term vision of STON.fi and the TON ecosystem, this could be a high-risk, high-reward play.
2. USD₮/JETTON → 32% APR JETTON is the token standard on TON, and this pool seems to be attracting a lot of liquidity. I’ve parked a portion of my stablecoins here—32% on stables is nothing to scoff at in today’s market.
3. STON/USD₮ → 15% APR STON is the native utility token of the DEX itself. This is a more conservative option, but still solid. STON is the DEX’s native token, and pairing it with USD₮ gives you a relatively stable farming experience. I see this as a good entry point for those who want to dip their toes into STONfi without going full degen.
If you’re farming on STONfi, the UI is as smooth as it gets. I personally split my liquidity. I keep 20% in the TONG/TON pool for the "degen" gains and 80% in the USD₮/JETTON and STON/USD₮ pools to build a solid foundation of rewards. The TON blockchain’s integration with Telegram is a "sleeping giant." As more users bridge in, the trading volume on STONfi goes up, which means more fees for Liquidity Providers.
The Smart Way to Diversify: How xStocks Brings 1:1 Backed Assets to Users
In a setting where traditional finance (TradFi) and decentralized finance (DeFi) used to feel like two different planets, the bridge has finally been built.
If you’ve been hanging around the $TON ecosystem lately, you might have noticed something new: xStocks. It’s a sophisticated shift in how we think about "real-world assets" (RWAs). I have explored the cumbersome interfaces of traditional brokers—dealing with limited trading hours, high minimums, and "T+2" settlement delays—the arrival of xStocks on TON brings a much needed change on how we navigate through xStocks.
What are xStocks, really? They are tokenized versions of heavy-hitting US assets like Apple (AAPL), Tesla (TSLA), or the S&P 500 (SPY).
One important thing to note is that they aren't just "synthetic" price trackers. Each xStock is backed 1:1 by the actual underlying asset, held by regulated custodians (issued by Backed Assets and supported by Kraken). You get the economic value of a Wall Street share, but with the 24/7, self-custodial DNA of the TON blockchain.
Why am I Watching This? As a user, the "why" comes down to three things: Access, Autonomy, and Efficiency.
Markets That Never Sleep: Traditional markets close on weekends. Crypto doesn't. With xStocks, you can swap your USDT for Apple exposure at 3 AM on a Sunday.
Self-Custody: Your "shares" sit in your Tonkeeper or MyTonWallet. You aren't asking a broker for permission to hold them; you own the keys.
The "Compounding" Secret: One detail I love is how dividends are handled. Instead of a tiny cash drop that sits idle, dividends are automatically reinvested. The issuer applies a "scaling factor," meaning your token balance essentially grows to reflect the reinvested value. It’s passive compounding without the paperwork.
Step-by-Step: How to Trade xStocks on STON.fi
The most realistic way to get your hands on these is through STON.fi, the leading DEX on TON. It’s a non-custodial swap, meaning you’re just routing your USDT through their liquidity infrastructure. Step 1: Set Up Your TON WalletMake sure you have a TON-compatible wallet (like Tonkeeper or TON Space inside Telegram). You’ll need a small amount of Toncoin (TON) to cover the network's gas fees (usually just a few cents). Step 2: Prepare Your USDTMost xStocks are paired against USDT (TON-based). If you have USDT on another chain, use a bridge or an exchange to get it onto the TON network. Step 3: Access STON.fiOpen your browser or the dApp browser in your wallet and head to app.ston.fi. Connect your wallet. Step 4: The SwapIn the "You Send" section, select USDT. In the "You Receive" section, search for the xStock you want (e.g., TSLAx for Tesla or AAPLx for Apple). Enter the amount. STON.fi will calculate the best route for your trade. Click Swap, review the details (slippage, fees), and confirm the transaction in your wallet. Step 5: Put Your Assets to Work (Optional)Once the xStocks are in your wallet, you don't have to just "HODL." Some users provide liquidity to xStock pools on STON.fi to earn a share of trading fees. It’s a way to earn yield on your "stocks" while waiting for the market to move.
Final Thoughts I'm watching the "Amazon-ification" of the stock market, are you? Just as Amazon made shopping 24/7 and borderless, xStocks are doing the same for equities on TON. It’s a powerful way to diversify a crypto-heavy portfolio without ever leaving the ecosystem I love.
