TAC, a purpose-built blockchain for EVM dApps to access TON and Telegram ecosystem, has raised a total of $11.5 million across its seed and strategic rounds. The newly closed $5 million strategic round, led by Hack VC, reinforces institutional belief in TAC’s mission to enhance blockchain functionality inside Telegram, the most user-rich environment in crypto.
Progress Towards Mainnet Launch
TAC is nearing its mainnet launch, now underway in a phased rollout. In the current DevMainnet phase, blue-chip DeFi protocols like Curve, Morpho, and Euler are already deploying, with over 20 leading applications preparing for Mainnet integration. This early traction ensures that once TAC goes live publicly, the ecosystem will launch with deep liquidity, proven DeFi primitives, and immediate user utility inside Telegram.
Liquidity Bootstrapping and Institutional Support
TAC’s pre-mainnet liquidity bootstrapping campaign, The Summoning, has drawn significant interest from leading funds, liquidity providers, and infrastructure players across the industry. With over $700M in total value locked (TVL) secured ahead of public Mainnet launch, this institutional-grade backing reflects deep confidence in TAC’s role as a DeFi layer for TON. Crucially, this liquidity will power core DeFi applications from day one, enabling real yield and market functionality at launch. Curve, Morpho, and Euler have already built dedicated Telegram Mini Apps (TMAs), making their products natively accessible in Telegram. In parallel, popular consumer TMAs are beginning to integrate DeFi functionality on the backend, distributing yield and financial tools to non-crypto users. TAC sees this convergence within the superapp Telegram as the path to mass adoption.
