* [https://cointelegraph.com/news/telegrams-ton-os-to-go-open-source-on-github-tomorrow From] [[Cointelegraph]] (6-5-2020):
''"[[Telegram Open Network (TON)|Telegram]] [https://cointelegraph.com/news/telegram-offers-ico-investors-refund-or-option-to-hang-on-till-april-2021 recently delayed] their open network, TON, and their cryptocurrency, GRAM, once again. There is one related project that has not experienced these setbacks, however. TON OS, an operating system for the TON blockchain, will soon get an [[open source]] release.''

''The project’s core infrastructure developers, [https://tonlabs.io/press TON Labs], are planning to open source the main components of the TON OS on [[GitHub]] tomorrow. Mitja Goroshevsky, CTO at TON Labs, confirmed the news to Cointelegraph on May 6."''

==== ''TON Labs to issue a token known as TON Cash within a month'' ====
''As [https://forklog.com/ton-labs-nazvala-datu-publikatsii-osnovnyh-komponentov-operatsionnoj-sistemy-dlya-telegram-open-network/ reported] by industry publication, ForkLog, the release includes TON Node in the [[Rust]] programming language, command line interface, TON [[Multisig|Multi signature]] [[Wallet]] [[smart contract]], as well as tools for launching TON validators. The report notes that within a month, TON Labs also plans to issue its [[decentralized]] browser, Surf, its [[Staking pools|staking pool]], DePool, and the token known as TON Cash.''

''In conjunction with the TON OS open source release, TON Labs is joining the Free Software Foundation (FSF), a major free software movement. As such, all the components of the TON OS are being launched as a free software. According to the developers, the idea of a [[permissionless]] blockchain in a closed source is absurd. TON Labs reportedly felt that joining the FSF will help them maintain free use of the application as well as the TON blockchain."''

''"TON Labs, a startup that helped Telegram run the test network for the Telegram Open Network (TON), launched its own version of the blockchain Thursday, with the support of professional validators. Called Free TON, the fork comes after the group decided not to wait until Telegram is able clear the regulatory hurdles it faces before it can officially send TON live.''

''The initiative is supported by 13 validators and used code maintained by TON Labs. To distinguish itself from the original TON project, this forked version is named Free TON, and its tokens are called "ton crystals," not "grams," as Telegram’s were dubbed."''
