This season, weâre drastically revamping the meaning of The Open League. In the past, we called it a competition, but we concluded this is incorrect as weâre all on the same mission: growing the TON ecosystem to reach 500 million active wallets and $1 billion in Total Value Locked (TVL).
And weâre excited to announce The Open League season 6 will begin next week, September 12.
Since TOL's inception, many projects on The Open Network have grown bigger, stronger, and more prominent. With new projects popping up regularly, TOL serves as a platform to offer new TON teams the spotlight they deserve. The goal is not to compete but to lift each other. Founders want loyal communities, and direct rewards play a role in that. Rewards attract users, showcase the product's value, and transform users into supporters and advocates.
Letâs see the changes coming into play in the upcoming season of The Open League.
For Users
TOL invites users to explore the fascinating TON Ecosystem, individual dApps, protocols, and Telegram Mini Apps. For your participation in The Open League and support of the projects building within the TON Ecosystem, weâll reward you with airdrops to recognize your contributions and support your activity.
Normie Airdrop: This will take users on an exciting journey across projects participating in the App League, core DeFi protocols, and the vibrant NFT scene in the TON ecosystem.
Degen Airdrop: Targeted at users with a higher risk profile, the Degen airdrop will guide them through the protocols participating in the DeFi League, including vaults, derivatives, bonding curve launchpads, and more.
To participate, you must mint your Normie and/or Degen SBT badge on the TON Society website. After minting, TOL will monitor your on-chain activity and consider it for airdrop distribution. And yes, you can participate in both airdrops simultaneouslyâthere are no limits.
At the end of the season, you can check your Normie and Degen scores, and eligible participants will receive rewards. To boost your scores, users should complete target actions listed on the Airdrop page on the TON Society website. And don't forget to watch out for hints and additional instructions on TON's official social media channels.
For Projects
Applications for TOL Season 6 are now open! Teams are welcome to apply to join the App League, DeFi League, and NFT League. Projects that participated in previous seasons don't need to re-apply but should check the eligibility criteria on TONResearch to ensure they can continue.
In Season 6, all App League participants will receive an airdrop for their eligible users as the primary reward. The top three performing teams will also earn an additional airdrop because their communities deserve recognition for being the most active.
In the DeFi League, we have the TVL Squad and the Volume Squad. Projects in the DeFi League will secure an airdrop for their protocol users. The best performers on the leaderboards will also have their audit costs covered. If your project has a Total TVL of less than $5 million or a Monthly Volume under $50 million, we're waiting for you.
For the NFT League, the top three collections on the leaderboard will share a prize pool of credits for Telegram ads and Key Opinion Leader (KOL) campaigns by the end of the season.
SPECIAL! The best performers in each League will also be eligible for Gateway Special edition benefits - speaking slots, booths, promotion and free tickets - how cool is that!
