TON Blockchain Now Live on NEAR Protocol via HOT Bridge
🌉 TON Meets NEAR
TON Blockchain has integrated with NEAR Protocol Intents through HOT Bridge, expanding the cross-chain capabilities of HOT Omni technology.
NEAR Intents, a multichain trading engine, enables token swaps across multiple networks from a single interface. The integration currently supports:
- Deposits on BNB Chain
- Deposits on Polygon
- New TON blockchain connection
This development marks a significant milestone for HOT Bridge's infrastructure adoption, with more blockchain integrations planned for the future.
