        • Our team is focused on building tools specifically for Layer 2 developers, such as Blockchain developers, NFT creators, DeFi developers, and Smart Contract developers. We aim to empower them by enabling the use of Staked TON (WSTON), adding real value to their digital assets like ERC721 and ERC1155, and unlocking greater opportunities for innovation in the blockchain space.
        • We are particularly targeting EVM-compatible Layer 2 developers. These developers build decentralized applications (dApps) on Layer 2 blockchains like Optimistic Rollups and Zero-Knowledge rollups. Our goal is to provide them with custom scripts and developer tools that simplify the integration of WSTON into their assets, allowing them to take advantage of its high-yield (up to 30% APY) and stable value.
        • In Q1 2025, we’ll release tools for developers to easily add WSTON-backed value to NFTs or digital assets on Layer 2 networks. These tools will help check if assets are eligible to use WSTON, and if not, developers can create new WSTON-backed assets with features like deposits and withdrawals. Our goal is to make it simple for developers to bring real value and stability to their assets.
        • In Q2 2025, we’ll take this further by introducing tools that allow developers to attach multiple staked tokens (such as WSTON, Staked USDT, or rETH) to their NFTs, helping them create stable, risk-mitigated assets. This flexibility will benefit various use cases, including NFT marketplaces, lending protocols, real-world asset tokenization, and DeFi applications.
        • These tools will help developers build powerful applications and ecosystems on the Tokamak network, all while driving growth and increasing the Total Value Locked (TVL) of TON on Tokamak network’s platforms.
