Following community consultation and vote, Everscale brand to reflect the blockchain's unmatched scalability made possible from migration from C++ to Rust

 

TALLINN, Estonia, Nov. 10, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Free TON, a community-driven blockchain cultivating an open and free decentralized internet, has announced an ecosystem rebrand to Everscale. The new brand identity comes as the network prepares to migrate from C++ to Rust programming language implementation, enabling unmatched scalability and throughput capable of bringing the world on-chain.

Joanne Eberhardt, VP Marketing and Communications at TON Labs, commented: "The Free TON Network has scaled significantly due to ongoing support and collaboration within the community. After breaking the world record for executions per second during our Rust Cup validator race earlier in 2021, we continue to grow to new heights. As a result, the Free TON identity no longer encapsulates what our architecture, our community and our governance are capable of. 'Everscale' represents our vision for true end-to-end decentralization and scalability of community, governance, performance and adoption"

 

The Everscale rebrand will incorporate all entities of the current Free TON ecosystem: TON OS, the blockchain operating system; DeFi infrastructure elements, TON Swap and TON Bridge, as well as many other community built tools and applications. The transition to Everscale will also bolster the network and community's previous achievements by accurately representing the core values of this ecosystem: end-to-end decentralization, unmatched scalability, open, scalable governance, and open-source infrastructure built for both utility and mass adoption.

Upon the official rebrand, the following changes will be implemented:
● The network name will change from Free TON to Everscale;
● The network currency will change from TON Crystal to Everscale;
● The network currency ticker will change from TON to EVER.
