PANews reported on October 24 that according to The Block, Web3 infrastructure provider Ankr has integrated with the TON blockchain. Ankr said that through this integration, it will provide developers with a "portal built on the TON blockchain, allowing them to build dApps and unlock access to Telegram's 950 million user community."

By using Ankr’s AP service, developers will no longer need to “deploy or maintain their own nodes to access on-chain data,” and will be able to take advantage of “instant connectivity to the TON blockchain,” the announcement said.
