Tonco Joins Omniston: What This Means for TON DeFi

STON.chronicles just dropped a major update: Tonco is now integrated into Omniston, STON.fi’s liquidity aggregator. If you care about better swaps, deeper liquidity, or smoother DeFi experiences, this has a lot of upside. I spent some time reading the blog, checking docs, and thinking this through, here’s how I see it.

What’s Tonco + Why It Matters

🔹Tonco is a DEX on TON that supports concentrated liquidity (so LPs can put liquidity in specific price ranges) and advanced trading pairs. It already has notable metrics: TVL, fees, and trading volume.

🔹By integrating Tonco liquidity into Omniston, STON.fi is adding new pools that weren’t previously visible in every swap route. Now, Omniston can scan Tonco’s pools along with others like STON.fi-V1/V2, DeDust, etc., to find routes with the best rates.

What Users Gain

Here are the practical wins for people trading or using STON.fi / Omniston:

🔹Better Swap Prices: More liquidity sources = less chance of hitting bad slippage. Big trades benefit especially since Tonco adds pools that may be deeper or more favorable.

🔹More Token Options: Tonco has some token-pairs or assets that might not have been in STON.fi/DeDust/etc. before. This gives users broader access without jumping between apps.

🔹Smoother UX: If your app, wallet, or dApp is already using Omniston, Tonco integration happens behind the scenes. As a user, you just make the swap, interface stays clean. Less friction.

What Developers / Builders Need to Know

This is big not just for end-users, but also for anyone building in $TON DeFi:

🔹One integration (Omniston) now gives you access to more liquidity sources, including Tonco. Less engineering work duplicating integrations.

🔹With more sources, there’s more resiliency: if one liquidity pool is shallow or underperforming, Omniston can route through Tonco or another path. Better reliability.

🔹Tonco’s concentrated liquidity model (where LPs can allocate their funds to certain price ranges) helps in capital efficiency. That means LPs can get more yield or less wasted capital compared to broader pools.

Things to Watch Out / Limitations

While this is a strong move, nothing is perfect. As someone who cares about long-term sustainability, here are some caveats:

🔹Liquidity Depth Varies: Just because Tonco pools exist doesn’t mean all of them are deep. Some token pairs will still have higher slippage or thinner liquidity depending on market demand.

🔹Route Complexity: More sources = more complex routing logic. There could be cases where a “best” route in theory isn’t best in practice due to gas, fees, or on-chain delays. Omniston handles a lot of this, but “invisible differences” may still show up.

🔹Competition and Overhead: As Omniston adds more liquidity sources, the protocol has to manage extra complexity (resolvers, quote comparisons, security). Maintaining security + speed + low cost is a balancing act.

🔹User Education Needed: Many users don’t pay attention to slippage, route choice, or consequence of low liquidity. Ambassadors’ role here is big: teaching people how these changes affect their swap results, fees, outcomes.

Where This Fits in the Bigger Picture

This move with Tonco integration reflects something I believe STON.fi is doing well: building the infrastructure underneath TON DeFi, not just offering features. It’s about making the ecosystem more connected, more seamless, and more efficient.

🔹Omniston is becoming more of a liquidity super-router (combining multiple sources) rather than just a swap engine.

🔹Users will begin to expect that swapping on TON means best rates, least slippage, and fewer “unknowns” (like which pool is being used). Tonco + Omniston integration moves toward that expectation.

🔹As more people use STON.fi + Omniston with Tonco, other tokens/projects may get more liquidity, which can drive utility, price discovery, and DeFi depth on TON.

My Take

Seeing Tonco integrated is exciting. It shows STON.fi is focused on real milestones, improving trade execution, expanding token choices, and reducing friction for both users and devs. If you’re trading on TON, this update means you’ll probably see better rates without necessarily doing anything different.

For those building or thinking of building in TON DeFi: leveraging Omniston (with Tonco now in the mix) could be a smart way to ensure your users get a better swapping experience. It also makes your integration future-proof: more pools, more sources, more options.

So if you care about price, liquidity, and staying on the cutting edge, this update is one worth paying attention to.

TON DeFi is moving fast, and integrations like Tonco into Omniston are setting new standards for liquidity and efficiency. Don’t just watch from the sidelines, explore, test, and be part of the builders shaping this future.
