Toncoin (TON) was launched in 2018, with development led by Telegram founder Pavel Durov. Toncoin is intended to offer a blockchain with a fast and scalable enviornment for decentralized applications (dApps) and smart contracts. It is a Layer-1 blockchain that supports a network of "shards" which is the cornerstone of its scalability. Each shard is capable of processing millions of transactions per second while maintaining compatibility and interoperability with the main chain. This is different to Ethereum which is relatively slow on the Layer-1 and relies on Layer-2 chains to provide high speed and scale. Toncoin's native coin, TON, is used for paying for transactions and services on the network. A large amount of TON is required to run a validator node or a service provider node. Users may stake TON in return for rewards.
Cryptocurrency exchanges offer similar services, but differ in a few key ways – mainly fees, the range of cryptos available and payment methods. You can use our table to compare the features of popular cryptocurrency exchanges available in Australia to help you choose the one that's right for you.
Some other factors you may want to consider are customer support, user reviews, ease of use and whether or not the exchange is registered with a local regulator. This information can be found by clicking on the exchange name in the table which will take you to its review page.
To create an account on any cryptocurrency exchange you will need an email address. Some exchanges may also ask for a phone number and photo ID, so it's a good idea to have those ready.
An increasing number of cryptocurrency exchanges will ask to verify your identity before you can deposit funds and start trading Toncoin.
Once you've created an account, you will need to deposit funds to buy TON with. You can either deposit local currency from a bank account or credit card, or transfer cryptocurrency from another exchange or wallet. Here are some popular ways to buy TON:
The easiest way to buy TON is by placing an 'instant buy' order to purchase it for a fixed price but not all crypto exchanges offer this feature.
Alternatively, you can open a trade on the spot market which allows you to set your own price – this is the most common way to purchase cryptocurrency. Using the instant buy feature is straightforward but typically more expensive than using the spot market.
