TON Foundation has announced a strategic partnership with Mantle Network, an Ethereum-based Layer 2 scaling solution provider. The collaboration will leverage community_bot, a Telegram-native toolset for crypto communities, to enhance interoperability and user experience.
One of the key aspects of the partnership is the use of community_bot, a Telegram-native toolset that enables crypto communities to access educational and informational content and interact with various dApps and services.
By utilizing community_bot, users in Mantle’s Telegram channels and Mantle’s Ecosystem project channels will be able to connect directly with TON’s thriving community on Telegram, which has over 400 million active users.
