Main Idea
TAC has launched its mainnet to bridge Ethereum DeFi to the TON ecosystem by providing an EVM-compatible chain, aiming to leverage Telegram's large user base while addressing TON's lack of native EVM support.
Key Points
1. TAC is an independent layer-1 blockchain built on Cosmos SDK, designed to integrate with TON and Telegram, offering EVM compatibility to attract Ethereum developers.
2. The project bootstrapped liquidity through an $800 million Summoning Campaign and has listed its $TAC token on major exchanges with Telegram Wallet support.
3. TAC uses a Cosmos-style DPoS mechanism for staking, offering 8-10% APY, and plans to enhance security with Bitcoin-secured networks (BSNs) via Babylon’s SPV-based slashing.
4. The EVM implementation underwent audits by Halborn, Trail of Bits, and Quantstamp, with no critical issues found, though the design introduces extra trust assumptions and sequencing complexity.
5. TAC’s launch marks a step in TON’s evolution from a payments-focused chain to a DeFi-capable platform, targeting Ethereum developers and Telegram’s user base.
