Why I Think STON.fi ’s Cross-Chain Push Matters Most on TON Right Now I have spent enough time trading and providing liquidity on TON to know when a protocol is simply winning and when it is becoming core infrastructure. For a long time, STON.fi looked like the biggest DEX on TON, the place where users swapped, farmed, and moved liquidity. The numbers explain why. Data from DEXTools and DefiLlama puts TON’s DeFi TVL at about $81.5 million, with STON.fi accounting for roughly $38.2 million. That means nearly half of all value locked across TON DeFi is flowing through one protocol. STON.fi has also been handling around $37.4 million in daily DEX volume, and its team has said it has at times captured 80% to 90% of all DEX activity on TON. The most important shift is Omniston. What began as a router is becoming an execution engine. By combining public AMM liquidity with private liquidity from professional market makers, Omniston can compare more than one source of execution and route trades where the outcome is best. The cross-chain plan raises the stakes further. Public $GRAM ↔ $TRX swaps in beta use HTLC-based atomic swaps, which give users a self-custodial path with a refund mechanism if a trade fails. The roadmap then points toward wider EVM support, extending STON.fi from TON-native success into broader multichain liquidity. For users, that means simpler access, less bridging friction, and a cleaner way to move capital into TON. For developers, widget.ston.fi and the no-code constructor can turn STON.fi into an embedded liquidity layer inside wallets and apps. The risk is real: TON dominance does not guarantee multichain dominance. But if STON.fi translates its TON position into a broader liquidity network, it will not just be the biggest DEX on TON. It will be the layer other TON applications build on. Explore more: docs.ston.fi/developer-section/omniston , defillama.com/chain/ton , app.ston.fi . $CMC20 $BTC #BTC
